I'm looking for a skilled and proactive Virtual Assistant (VA) to join my Airbnb business remotely.
Your primary role will be to identify and cold outreach to businesses that need long-term accommodation solutions for their staff, such as traveling teams, contractors, or remote workers. You'll focus on companies open to booking Airbnb-style properties on a flexible nightly rate basis, rather than traditional long-term leases. This is an ongoing part-time opportunity (approximately 5-10 hours/week initially) with potential for growth as we scale.
Key Responsibilities:
Research and compile lists of potential businesses (e.g., construction firms, consulting companies, event organizers, or tech startups) that frequently require temporary housing for employees.
Use tools like LinkedIn, company websites, and business directories to find contact details for decision-makers (e.g., HR managers, operations leads).
Craft personalised cold emails, LinkedIn messages, or calls to pitch our Airbnb properties as cost-effective, comfortable alternatives for long-term stays.
Follow up on leads, track responses in a shared CRM or spreadsheet, and report progress weekly. Handle basic Airbnb-related tasks, such as reviewing property listings or coordinating with me on availability.
Requirements:
Fluent in English (both written and spoken) – essential for professional outreach.
Proven experience with Airbnb (e.g., as a host, guest, or in property management) to understand the platform and its benefits for businesses.
Ideally, prior experience in cold outreach or sales to businesses, especially in real estate, hospitality, or B2B services. If you have a track record of generating leads or closing deals via cold emailing/calling, that's a big plus!
Strong research skills and familiarity with tools like Google Workspace, LinkedIn Sales Navigator etc.
Self-motivated, organised, and able to work independently from anywhere in the world (no UK base required). Availability during standard business hours in GMT/BST time zones for outreach.
