Vacation Property2 - I Will Set Up Your Vacation Property - I Will Tourism Marketing

(this temporary site/business is in transition/being developed so keep checking back) I Will Set Up Your Vacation Property - http://IWillSetUpYourVacationProperty.com With over 20 years in the Travel Industry & as a Travel Writer, 12 years doing Vacation Property Promotions in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, 5+ years running a Guest House in Costa Rica & a lifetime as an Information Junkie with numerous blogs/information websites & Connector, let me assist you in setting up your new hotel, B&B, Guest House, Condo or Villa Vacation Home or sprucing up your old Vacation Rental Property to a level that appeals to the North American clientele which is often looking for more - a special vacation! How many times have you been on vacation & the beds were so hard you were in pain the whole time (VERY typical in Costa Rica), they didn't have wash cloths or hand towels, IF there were curtains in the windows they were so sheer you were awake at the crack of dawn (around 5:30am in Costa Rica), the housekeeper only used those nasty smelling chemical products that never seemed to go away, they only had king beds & traveling with your buddy, that meant you'd have to get 2 rooms since you didn't want to sleep with them, or the kitchen had hardly anything in it? As an owner, have you ever learned someone had rented your property but you had no recallection of them (because your manager rented it out & pocketed the money)? Do you find guests leaving all the lights on & worse - the air-conditioning on 24/7 & getting $500/month electricity bills? I'll come live/experience your place for 5-7 days so I can get a real feel for your home & immerse myself into your area. Living there will help me produce a VERY detailed assessment of things that could help make your property more renter/user-friendly & attractive to gringo tourists - help it stand out above the rest - especially in this tight market. If you are in Costa Rica, I will share with you where to find such items both in Costa Rica & the U.S. & I can hook you up with English & Spanish-speaking people in the San Jose area (where most of these items can be found) that know where many of these stores are so they give you the ease by driving you around & assisting you with the purchases. If you choose some items in the States, I will connect you with a way to ship everything for good quality sheets to furniture without having to bring a whole container! Included if you'd like, we also offer an Assessment on hints/products to help make your property more Sustainable/Green/Mother-Earth/Eco-Friendly! If you are a private condo or villa, I'll help you create a contract that helps bring clarity to each party as to what to expect/what's being offered that you may choose to use. Need a photographer to take professional pictures to make your place more inviting? An Architect that understands Conscious/Green building? A Feng Shui Master to help change the feel? Someone to make you a website, brochures & cards? People to do the work to make you home more Sustainable/Green/Mother-Earth-Friendly (beyond what we offer within the assessment)? An Interior Designer to tjuz it up? I have good quality people to Connect you with! You want Contacts - I'm your gal as I'm a MASTER of CONNECTIONS!!!! While in your area I will go out & gather information & make you a binder of menus, tours, things to do, lists of stores & businesses in your area, markets, English-speaking taxi drivers, doctors, etc. Important Contact numbers. All this helps the person feel "safer" & in the know which helps them have a more enjoyable vacation! I will share with you my list of things your clients should "Know Before They Come" (hints like making sure they have a Return Ticket indicating they are leaving CR within 90 days, your passport is good for at least 90 more days & is not mutalated or you most likely will be refused entry into Costa Rica & will have to pay for your ticket home till these things are resolved or given a shorter Visa stamp, they need to call their credit card companies before they’re going to let them know they’ll be in CR for certain dates [plus add a few days to the end since charges don’t always go through immediately] - or their card most likely WILL get cut off as the company will think there's some fraud going on). I will give them details/contacts for ways to get from the airport to their destination including English-speaking taxi or van drivers (when possible), car rental agencies we have heard only positive about (RARE) & LOTS more! I will create a word document you can use with this information on it (to either send to your guests or use for your website). I will get you set up on Trip Advisors & other travel related forums/boards (I can write from experience since I will have done it), VRBO (they have a fee) & other places for YOU to promote yourself (we do NOT do the actual promoting but will share with you how to do it &/or Connect you with someone that can). I will create a basic Facebook Page for you (even if you do not desire to be on Facebook, having presence there to promote yourself IS IMPORTANT in this day & age!!!). Already have an existing property? Let me help turn your property "Green/Sustainable" - help you get more conscious & show your love for Mother Earth!!! In these days of limited tourism clients, you NEED to do whatEVER you can to stand out!!
