Owns + Manages Over 4,000 Airbnb's Across The World & Shares Why This Is A Great Strategy
Guest Bio:
Braydon Ross, a 26-year-old Canadian entrepreneur took advantage of this new way of vacationing and decided to create a service where high-end clients could easily access luxurious property rentals. He entered the Airbnb space about 5 years ago and decided to turn his genius business model into one of the largest short term rental management/marketing companies in all of North America, Plenty of Villas. As the co-founder of Plenty of Villas, he helped form this business to turn his vision of providing a full suite concierge service for prestigious clients into reality by partnering with top-tier vacation rental companies, luxury boutique hotels, and even homeowners.
Plenty of Villas lives up to their name and has grown immensely over the past year and a half by utilizing a new management/marketing method in places such as St. Barths, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Croatia, and other places. Braydon has been involved in the Airbnb industry for about five years now and has perfected his business model of using other people’s properties to make money on Airbnb. He utilizes sites like Airbnb, VRBO, HomeAway, and many others. Despite being heavily involved in the Plenty of Villas business, Braydon has chosen to pursue social media as well. He began growing his Instagram presence several years ago and has managed to accumulate over 185k followers under his page, @mrairbnb. He decided that he would use his wisdom and begin teaching his business models to anyone who wanted to enter the same industry. He began to see real results and soon enough many of his students were quitting their day jobs to manage temporary rental properties full time.
