01 · The problem

Your property is truly one of a kind. On Airbnb, Vrbo, and all the others, it looks like everyone else's.

Guests scroll past hundreds of lookalike listings and pick on price, while an algorithm no one controls decides whether yours shows up on page one or page fifty. Meanwhile, the booking site where guests could book direct sits quiet, because nobody is sending them there.

What you're stuck with today

Rented visibility and shrinking margins

  • Competing on price in a sea of lookalike listings
  • Listing-site fees taken out of every booking, so owners and PMCs both earn less from the same stay
  • The listing site owns the guest: no contact details, and no way to market to them again
  • A direct booking site that barely gets visitors
  • Reviews left to chance, from guests who were never the right fit
With UpliftStays

What UpliftStays unlocks

Demand of your own, on autopilot

  • A vibe all its own, with a cinematic film and landing page made for your property
  • 8 new videos a month, unique to your property, posted across 2 platforms: 16 posts aimed at your ideal guests and improved every month
  • Your property's own social media presence, where you talk with future guests and answer their comments directly
  • Every guest one click from booking direct, with no listing-site fee
  • Guest details that are yours to market to again, even travelers who didn't book
  • Ideal guests who leave better reviews and higher ratings
02 · The idea

Every property has a personality. We find it, then find the guests who'll love it.

From what you tell us at sign-up, our AI matches your property to the one signature vibe, out of seven, that fits it best, and pinpoints its ideal guest. That vibe guides every film, page, post and ad we make.

From your listing photos to bookings, every step, done for you.

04 · What we build

The same photos. A completely different first impression.

On the listing sites, your property is one small square among hundreds. We turn the same photos into a film, a page and a feed of its own.

On Airbnb, Vrbo and every other listing site

One listing among hundreds, compared on price.

With UpliftStays
Its own cinematic film and page

Its own social accounts, new videos every month, paid ads and organic posts.

Everything included

A full-time marketing engine for your property.

No filming. No writing. No posting. No ad accounts to manage. UpliftStays' AI does all of it, and gets smarter every month.

How it works

Photos that finally do your property justice

We gather every photo of your property from Airbnb, Vrbo and your PMC's site, add any you upload, remove the duplicates and enhance each one. Then our AI studies every picture, from the pool to the golf cart, and uses what it sees to tell your property's story in images and words, brought to life with motion.

A story your ideal guest can't resist

From what you tell us at sign-up, our AI finds what makes your place special, matches it to the one signature vibe, out of seven, that fits it best, and pinpoints the guest who'll love it most. That vibe guides everything we create and every ad we run.

A hero film and landing page that sell the stay

Your property's story, narrated in the voices that bring it to life, set to music curated for its vibe and woven with your favorite guest book reviews, in a cinematic film. It lives on a landing page built for your property alone, with the best things to do nearby and a direct link to book, and it's home base for every campaign that follows.

A Dedicated Marketing Agency That Never Stops

Every month, 8 new videos made only for your property, posted across 2 platforms, paid and organic, on its own social accounts. We place them in front of your ideal guests, track every view through to the click to book, learn what works and adjust. And you can talk with future guests and answer their comments directly.

How a guest finds you and books direct

1. They're scrolling

Your property's ad or post appears in their Facebook or Instagram feed, made for exactly this traveler.

2. They fall for it

They watch your property's film, narrated and set to music for its vibe.

3. They land on your page

One tap takes them to a page built only for your property, with its story, guest book reviews and things to do nearby.

Booked direct
4. They book direct

One click takes them to your PMC's booking page for that exact property. No listing-site fee.

Every step is tracked in The Hub, your personal property dashboard.

06 · Which one are you?

Two ways UpliftStays pays off.

07 · What it's worth

Get Started

An estimate, not a promise. Extra bookings are per month. Your PMC's fee comes out first, then our $200 a month.

08 · Why not just…

Everyone is marketing the company. Nobody is marketing the property.

There are good agencies, teams and tools out there. None of them build a dedicated campaign for every individual property.

A marketing agency

A monthly retainer to market your company's brand, spread across every property you manage. When the invoices stop, so does the work.

An in-house marketing hire

A full salary or more for one or two people stretched across your whole portfolio. No team can build and run a campaign for every property.

AI video apps

You get a clip. Then the story, the posting, the ads and the bookings are all left to you.

Booking software and website builders

A place to take reservations, and templates to fill in yourself. Nothing brings guests to them.

UpliftStays gives every property its own social marketing engine: its own social accounts, new videos every month, and paid ads and organic posts aimed at its ideal guests, all leading to a page built for it and one click to book. One flat price per property, nothing for you to manage.

09 · See it for real

Frequently asked questions

What is UpliftStays?

A dedicated, AI-powered marketing agency for your vacation rental. It finds your property's vibe and ideal guest, brings your photos to life, tells your property's story in a cinematic film and its own landing page, and posts 8 new videos a month across 2 platforms to bring your ideal guests one click from booking direct.

How fast does it start working?

Right away. Sign up, answer the Onboarding Wizard's guided questions and add your links, and we get to work on your photos, story, film, landing page and social accounts right away.

How much work is it for me?

Very little. Our Onboarding Wizard guides you through 10 short steps, about 20 minutes, covering your listing, your property's vibe and ideal guest, your photos and your favorite guest book reviews. After that, there's nothing to film, write, post or manage. It runs automatically every month.

How is this different from AI video apps?

Video apps give you a clip, and the rest is up to you. UpliftStays is a dedicated marketing agency. It finds your property's vibe and ideal guest, builds its film and landing page, then runs its own social marketing engine: new videos every month, with paid ads and organic posts that put your property in front of your ideal guests, providing them direct booking opportunities.

Who is UpliftStays for?

Property owners with 1 to 5 homes, and PMCs of any size. Your property needs to be managed by a PMC with its own booking site, because that's where your guests book direct. See how it works for owners and for PMCs.

Do I have to leave Airbnb or Vrbo?

No. Keep your Airbnb, Vrbo and other listings, and your PMC, right where they are. UpliftStays adds guests who book direct on your PMC's site, on top of what the listing sites already bring you.

Will the video show my property as it really is?

Yes. Every frame comes from a real photo of your property. Light, weather and motion bring it to life, but rooms, features and views are never added or removed.

Which social platforms do you use?

The top platforms travelers use, starting with Facebook and Instagram. Your property gets its own accounts, with several new videos every month, posted as paid ads and organic posts aimed at your ideal guests. You can talk with future guests and answer their comments right there.

How will I know it's working?

The Hub is your personal property dashboard, with every property on your account in one place. See every piece of content we've created and what's in motion right now, follow every social post with its comments and feedback, and track the full results: who's seeing your videos and ads, who's visiting your landing page, and who's clicking through to book. PMCs can give each team member their own access, so everyone sees exactly what they need.

What does it cost?

Sign up now and lock in our introductory price of $200 a month per property, for life. Our regular price will be $300. Everything is included, and we never take a commission on your bookings. PMCs with larger portfolios get volume pricing.
