Anyone has suggestions on advertising on social media thats pretty much hands free ?
I can’t remember to post and would love to automate that task
Question
Social Media advertising
A very simple way on Instagram is to schedule posts. There is software to do it. But often I just go online Monday and schedule posts for the week. In between go on and ‘like’ and interact with accounts. (Screen shots showing how).

+3We’re not good at this, but did find a very cool platform that has some of these capabilities you’re looking for. Take a look at https://www.mymarky.ai/
We use it for another business and it’s powerful and at the very least can allow you to be more consistent with quick batch creation.
+1Fellow Hospitable host here — this is exactly the problem Y'alloha (yalloha.com) solved for me. I created it for my own use, but I think it will be a good solution for all of us with direct booking sites. The Hospitable team approved my use of the Connect API, and I am just launching it.
Since we're both on Hospitable the setup is dead simple — it connects via Hospitable’s Airbnb Connect API and whenever a 5-star review comes in it automatically generates a branded graphic with the review text, writes a caption, and queues it for Facebook and Instagram. One click to approve, or set it to post fully automatically if you want to never think about it.
No remembering to post, no building content manually — it just runs every time a good review lands. Free to start if you want to try it. If you like it, I have some promo codes to share with the Hospitable community to unlock the top tier functionality.

+1Thanks - let me take a look. Was just making some changes and hadn’t done an end-to-end test yet
+1Wow - found it! Thank you!
I’m actually in the process of building a fairly complete automation chain for this.
The core of the system is Buffer, which manages the publishing calendar across the different social platforms. Around that, I’m using n8n for automation and Claude for content generation and structuring.
The idea is to go beyond simple scheduled posts. The workflow will automatically pull local news and events from my city and combine that with different content sources when preparing posts.
For example it already draws from:
-
a large image library of my properties
-
infographics
-
local news and events
And I plan to add other factors over time.
The goal is to build something that stays largely automated but still varied and locally relevant, rather than just pushing the same type of content repeatedly.

Great idea! I have been thinking through the local events angle as well to post “things to do” content in addition to the reviews. The “social proof” that comes from posting the reviews is important for potential guests. Ideally, getting an active feed where guests themselves contribute would be great, but most guests want to update their own social media posts and not do that for their hosts.

Facebook alone seems like a worthwhile option since they touch so many of their platforms. I have yet to look into it, but I am looking forward to it.

Seems very cool and certainly could get you consistently posting, which is part of the challenge, right?

Sounds like a product you could build out and market.
Still a work in progress, but I’m aiming for something that reduces manual effort without ending up with repetitive or generic content.
