01Intro / Founder

Hi, I'm Kerri.

20+ years in vacation rentals taught me one thing: the listings that win aren't always the prettiest homes — they're the ones styled and written for the scroll. I'm here to help you fix yours. Save this page, your future bookings will thank you.

02Quick win (carousel)

Your cover photo is costing you bookings.

Swipe → the 5 things a scroll-stopping cover photo always has. Bright, wide, styled, life inside it, and a clear hero feature. Which one are you missing?

03Before / After

Same room. +22% nightly rate.

We didn't renovate. We restyled, reshot, and rewrote the listing. Here's what changed — and why guests started paying more for the exact same square footage.

04Quote card

Guests don't book homes. They book a feeling.

Your photos, your title, your first 3 lines of copy — they all sell the same thing: a feeling. If yours sells 'a house with beds,' you're competing on price. Sell the feeling, and you compete on value.

05Tip (single image)

Rewrite your title in 60 seconds.

Formula: [Feeling/Vibe] + [Standout Feature] + [Location Hook]. Example: 'Sun-drenched coastal cottage · steps to the dunes.' Drop your current title in the comments — I'll give one a free rewrite.

06Behind the scenes

What a listing audit actually looks like.

A peek at the spreadsheet, the photo annotations, and the prioritized roadmap I send every audit client. No fluff — just the next 10 things to fix, in order of revenue impact.

07Myth bust

More amenities ≠ more bookings.

Stuffing your listing with every amenity checkbox actually hurts you — it dilutes what makes your place special. Pick 5 hero amenities and lead with them in your photos AND your copy.
