How to work with Hotels , Airbnb’s & Resorts

When trying to work with hotels, Airbnbs, and resorts, one crucial step is building a strong and personal portfolio that showcases your unique style and the value you bring as a creator. From my experience, it's important to tailor your content to reflect the property’s brand and audience, which helps make your pitch more authentic and appealing. Before reaching out, spend time researching the property thoroughly. Look through their website and social media to understand their voice and what kind of collaborations they have done. I found that mentioning specific things you like about the property in your email can create a connection and shows genuine interest. A clear and concise email pitch really makes a difference. Start by introducing yourself and your background as a content creator. Then, explain how a partnership could benefit both you and the property. For example, highlight your engagement rates, audience demographics, or previous successful collaborations. Always include a link to your portfolio or media kit. Don’t rely solely on emails—sending a DM on Instagram or other social platforms can sometimes speed up the response. Be polite and professional but also friendly. Avoid sending long paragraphs; keep your communication straightforward and easy to read. Persistence is key, but be respectful of their time. If you don’t hear back, a polite follow-up after a week or two is appropriate. Also, managing multiple emails and inquiries may require some organization, so keep notes on who you’ve contacted and their responses. Ultimately, focus on creating high-quality, personal content that aligns with what the hotel or resort desires. Sharing your honest travel experiences and how you can showcase their property effectively will increase your chances of securing collaborations that benefit both parties.
