This week's episode is brought to you by Mount.
A few months ago, Gabby and I stayed at a quintessential beach cottage in San Diego.
The home was just 3/4 of a mile from the beach — perfect biking distance, right?
There was only one problem — the home didn‚Äôt come with bikes, and the nearest bike rental shop was fully committed throughout our stay.
We really wanted bikes — so much so that we asked our host if she knew anyone personally that we might be able to rent bikes from. Alas, she did not.
Today, I want to introduce you to a company who is solving for this very problem. Meet
Mount — a platform that enables STR hosts to transform their homes into full-fledged vacation experiences.
Mount let‚Äôs you rent just about anything to your guests — bikes, scooters, golf carts, kayaks, and even private chefs and masseuses!
With the simple scan of a QR code, guests can explore all of the rental amenities you have to offer. Guests can browse, book, and access anything you make available in a matter of seconds.
Mount makes it easy for guests to access anything additional they might need during their stay, and for STR hosts to increase their revenue per booking.
Oh, and if you don‚Äôt have a bike or scooter to rent, no problem — Mount can provide one for you.
