Jon Bell and Julian Sage teach people how to build a six or seven-figure business on Airbnb without owning property.
Top 3 Value Bombs:
1. A lot people think that AirBNB is a fad. Doing it professionally is a completely different thing. If you’re going to immerse yourself in the industry, you’d need help. You need somebody to co-host with you, or someone you can train with and you can arm yourself with to make sure that you’re doing it the right way.
2. Things are not easy. Surround yourself with people that are successful on where you want to be rather than just going out on your own. You can shortcut your learning curve and save yourself so much time through coaches and mentors.
3. AirBNB is a place where it’s not necessarily a city that you have to be in. It’s an experience space platform. A treehouse, or a tent in the middle of the woods, a lakefront home, all of these could kill it in AirBNB.

3. We’ve been trained that we have to have financial advisor telling us what we have to do. The truth is, you’re an entrepreneur. You’re your own boss. You should be the boss of your own money because nobody should care about your money more than you.
