Hello! Does anyone have a couple of travel influencers that they've worked with and could recommend? I'd like to get more exposure for my STR in upstate New York. Thank you.

I've seen an approach that is giving a "creator/influencer" a unique discount code. Each booking that is produced with said code gives them a percentage refunded back from their booking.

Example: 10 people using the code would generate them $100 refunded from their stay if each code used was valued at $10. Influencer pays up front & gets refunded back based on results within a said period.

    You're likely best asking on local Facebook groups. Good luck.

    There's a Hudson Valley STR FB group. I am in it — I grew up in the Hudson Valley and work now as an STR Designer. Reach out there — there should be people in there!

    I get approached monthly by influences looking for score a free stay.  I tried it several years ago with no result.  I would only consider this if you have a super unique place.

    That's not a great strategy if you don't know how to evaluate the influencer's true reach. A lot of followers are fake so they won't help you. Their fee has to line up with proven reach and results. Most Airbnb hosts just hire a kid who has a good page, and they waste their money.
