[00:00:00] Speaker A: Welcome to RV Park Boss, a podcast for RV park owners. I'm your host, Jason Lafferty. This is a show where we dive deep into the challenges, rewards of park ownership and some funny stories along the way. This podcast is sponsored by RV park pros and 78% of all RV parks are self managed mom and pop operations. Aside from location, a strong marketing, guest experience and productive management, those are the keys to success and profitability for any park. So if you're still trying to keep up with all this yourself, there's a better way. RV Park Pros is a park management system that'll help you maximize your occupancy and profits while optimizing your guest experience and retention. All without having to be involved in a day to day. To learn more about how we can help streamline your park's operation, go to RV parkpros.com again that's RV parkpros.com and today's RV park boss is. Carter. I don't want to butch. Your last name. Kemple.
[00:00:53] Speaker B: Yeah. Campbell. Yep, that's it.
[00:00:56] Speaker A: Badass.
So he's the owner of Hometown RV park and expert AI planning hands on operations with technology driven innovation. Welcome to the show, my friend.
[00:01:05] Speaker B: Thank you. Thank you for having me.
This is awesome. This is actually my second podcast.
[00:01:09] Speaker A: So nice.
[00:01:12] Speaker B: My second podcast, my first podcast for Hometown and what I actually do for work. So okay, the first one was a, was a kid from church. He invited me to be on his podcast and just talk about the Lord. I was like, yeah, I'll do that. So Right.
[00:01:26] Speaker A: There you go. Really?
Yeah. Well, to kick things off, I always like to start with a question.
So we're going to shoot it off. What's one thing that you learned about RV parks that you didn't know until you owned one?
[00:01:39] Speaker B: Takes a lot of work.
It takes a lot of work to, to run a park. And I would say the, the biggest lesson for, for me when we got into this was I tried to do as much as possible all by myself. So maintenance, landscaping.
And it was until recently I was like, I can't do this. And so we finally got a new, we got a team involved and so they're going around and taking care of the lawn, they're taking care of the maintenance. And that has helped us tremendously. Just. Yeah, that's the biggest thing I've learned so far.
[00:02:14] Speaker A: So you have some, some work campers on site that, that stay on site. Are they locals?
[00:02:20] Speaker B: Yeah. So the way Hometown operates currently, because we, we acquired this from previous owners, so there's two campost.
They come and stay. They get a free site. Free site. We don't pay them for this because all they're doing is coming in. They're just picking up the trash, cleaning the bath house, delivering firewood, helping us set up for events when we have our events. And then if there's ever a complaint or something, then they. Then they go handle that. So because they're not paid, they're not doing landscaping. So we needed to get somebody else involved to do the landscaping.
[00:02:57] Speaker A: Yeah. And what.
[00:02:58] Speaker B: What part of.
[00:02:58] Speaker A: Because we just met through Facebook, RV park groups.
[00:03:01] Speaker B: What.
[00:03:01] Speaker A: What part of hometown? What state is that in?
[00:03:04] Speaker B: So we're in North Carolina. Jonesville.
[00:03:10] Speaker A: I like North Carolina. So I was looking at a few parks last spring, early spring or something. But I think there's a lot of great opportunity. I think everybody's eyeballs are in Florida and a lot of Texas. Not as much as the Carolinas.
[00:03:24] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, it's.
[00:03:25] Speaker A: It's.
And a lot of the parks are really performing well. So, I mean, it seems like a really good desirability. And, you know, so what I find.
[00:03:34] Speaker B: What I find to love about this industry is, you know, it's real estate, but it's also a business. Like, there's. You have more operations like a business, but you also have that key factor of real estate. So, like, for us, we. When we looked at this park, there was a lot of upside to this park. Things that we can actually increase with.
But it was flexible because we had monthlies and we had a weekenders, and we had a solid continuity with weekenders, but we had a good flow of, you know, traveling nurses coming through this area. We had a good flow of contractors coming through this area. And it's been really good because when we first closed, we were expecting to have like, oh, we're going to be fine. We're going to have, like, you know, 15, 20 monthlies, and we'll be good. We got in. It was 10.
[00:04:24] Speaker A: Go pay the bills.
[00:04:25] Speaker B: Yeah. And it wasn't paying the bills, and I was panicking. I was like, oh, no, this is not going to pay the bills.
But then September and October rolled around and we just booked out, and I was like, okay, all right. There you go.
[00:04:37] Speaker A: Snowbirds.
[00:04:39] Speaker B: Yeah, so we get a lot of snowbirds. Yep. And we are. My main goal. Our main goal right now is to actually increase our monthlies.
That's kind of what we're. Our bread and butter is at hometown.
So we're, like, innovating little offers to get people to stay here.
Making a model for when somebody calls us and tries to book. You know, if they, they hear our rates, which our rates currently are 950 for one month and then it's 900 if you stay two to five months and if they stay with us for six months, it's 850amonth.
We're trying to really create the continuity and when we just change.
Oh, sorry, what's that?
[00:05:19] Speaker A: Good incentive?
[00:05:20] Speaker B: Yeah, very good incentive.
[00:05:22] Speaker A: So I like it.
[00:05:24] Speaker B: So once we change that, because originally it was 900 flat rate, but as soon as we changed that, we went from a consistency of like 16 monthlies on like, you know, looking at it annually to 27 just on that little change. And so that was like, wow, this is awesome.
[00:05:41] Speaker A: Like, like, like how do we do more of that?
[00:05:43] Speaker B: Yeah, exactly.
So we're, we're tweaking a little bit. We're testing a new offer which is a super high incentive offer because we're not spending anything on marketing. There's no money even for marketing for us. So we're trying to cake a little bit of that in to get more monthlies. We want 40 right now we're at like 27, 28 consistently. So yeah, so we're trying to like say, hey, if you book with us in the next 48 hours, your first month is 800 bucks. So we're dropping that to the 950 to 800. We're still good. We'll still be able to pay all the bills still profit caked into that.
And then if they stay with us for six months, the seventh month is free. And this is just a one time offer because what we have found is somebody stays with us for six months, they're going to stay with us for the year.
[00:06:33] Speaker A: Right.
[00:06:33] Speaker B: So we have a huge incentive to get them to stay that six months.
[00:06:38] Speaker A: So yeah, they're not being shipped off for their job. And you know, you got a process for keeping your showers clean, keeping everybody happy, then it's yeah, they don't want to leave. People are like, oh, I like mobile lifestyle. But they'll be the same place for three or five years, you know.
[00:06:53] Speaker B: Oh yeah, it's easy. Once you set up, it's done. Like you're like, oh, okay, I don't have to worry about getting up and packing and moving again and yeah, yeah, for sure.
[00:07:01] Speaker A: So is there any, so for like monthlies, is there any like bigger construction projects or other little partnerships that you could try to look at? For example, one of my parks in Whitney, there's a big data center being built. And so my thought was, my construction mind was I'm just going to go on site, pass out some flyers, try to strike up a little friendship. You know, if you refer your guys to our park, they're coming from out of town. We'll give them, you know, your guys rate.
But the guy that I did this episode with last, he was like, take an extra step and contact HR departments. And when they start filling up with employees, they already have you top of mind. I'm like, they're taking notes. I'm like, all right, contact HR department.
You know, But I got a virtual assistant. And so he's looking into it and, you know, so we're just going to send him site. I don't know if it's going to mean anything, but it might. And if they have. Is this a data center and it's a rural area that's going to be 6, 700 employees? I think so if they have out of town people, some of them might be in RVs. So I just try to think a little ways like that because you just got to pull every string that you can sometimes.
[00:08:06] Speaker B: Yeah, I. I think so.
[00:08:07] Speaker A: We've.
[00:08:08] Speaker B: We've not contacted them, and that's due to like, just focusing on other things that need to be fixed. But when we were seeing the increase of like traveling nurses, so we have a hospital near us. Hugh Chapman. And that was one thought somebody mentioned to us, like, you should just contact HR and let them know. Right to my fault. I've not called them yet. So is something I have not done yet. But that's is. It's a brilliant idea though, like.
[00:08:35] Speaker A: Yeah, for sure. And just being able to, you know, give them a hard flyer or something or even just a face to name, show them that you care and then creating likability, I think can definitely make a little difference.
[00:08:47] Speaker B: Oh, absolutely.
But, yeah, trying to think, I guess.
I mean, do you want me to go through a little bit of like, how we got this park and kind of our plan? That's something that I. I'm just passionate about, like the, the whole idea of what we're doing for this park. Okay, I would go. If it's fine with you. I'm gonna go a little bit backstory on like, yeah, what got me into going here so covet happened 2020, I realized I was like, hey, I want to do something. I don't want to work a job. I would rather work for myself. You know, Since I was 16, I've started companies. They failed. My first company was cleaning Dumpster area. So I've always had that mindset to do something else, to not work for somebody.
So when 2020 happened, I was like, you know what? I've seen a lot of people talking about this real estate thing. Let me just dive deep. So I started going into it, and I was looking at wholesaling, so I started looking into that. And then I was like, well, this is a lot. I don't know if I want to do all this for just a little bit of the cake. So then I dived into, maybe I'll do the Burr method, you know? And so I looked into that, and then my uncle told me. He was like, if you're going to do something, Carter, just go big. Like, just look at something big. It's going to take roughly the same effort, except you'll have bigger leverage at the end. So I was like, okay. So I started looking to commercial properties.
During this time, I was actually working at a.
It was actually jimco. And what we did there was we converted sprinter vans into campers. And then I was also re repairing RVs. So, like, I knew the RV industry. I was talking with them daily, but I was looking at apartment complexes. And then this. I saw this on the market. It popped up. And actually my other partner who's in this, he sent it to me, and we were talking about it, and I was like, this is actually. This can make sense.
And I was.
[00:10:45] Speaker A: Hometown was the first, like, park that you really, really looked at.
[00:10:48] Speaker B: Yep, Hometown was the first one God just showed up.
[00:10:51] Speaker A: It was just like, hey, look at me.
[00:10:53] Speaker B: Yeah, it was all the Lord. He kind of just handed because, like, at that point in time, I kind of, like, let it go. Like, I was calling about 50 to 60 people. I was on the phone with about 50, 60 people. So I was calling more than that. Like, every single.
I was just smiling and dialing, just trying to figure out deal. And I kind of got burnt out. So I was just doing something else. I quit my job at jimco and I was selling schoolies.
So then I kind of like, let a month go by not doing much.
And then this. I got the email and that came in and I was like, whoa, this. This makes sense.
[00:11:29] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:11:30] Speaker B: And So I was 24 when that. When we got that in. And then with the, you know, all praise to the Lord with this. It was through his blessing we were able to do this. But we got into the property, we closed it.
We have some great investors. But the amazing thing in my mind is that I got in it for $0 out of my pocket, which was just incredible. Like, I've always saw people saying, hey, you can do this. And I was like, ah, well, I don't really believe that. And then.
[00:11:58] Speaker A: Right. Those limiting beliefs. Kitchen.
[00:12:00] Speaker B: Yep. And then I really tried it and it worked. And I was like, wow, it worked. And now I got to do the most important part, which is make sure it performs right.
[00:12:09] Speaker A: Yeah. A little obligation, a little bit. A little bit of pressure.
[00:12:12] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:12:12] Speaker A: And so money's not the only value. You know, being able to bring. Be the deal getter. To be able to bring the deal and be able to sell the plan and be the, you know, the operator. There's tons of value in that because I've had a lot of people reach out to me and they're like, how do I get involved? I don't have any money. Like, well, you could do things. The guys that have money that they don't want to do, they don't want to do that. They don't want to go there and call the guy to go fix the pipe or handle the landscaping guys. They don't want to do the due diligence on the acquisition side. They want to see what the package looks like and they need people like us to make it happen.
[00:12:44] Speaker B: They need the operators. And we, There was, there was another guy we were talking to a while ago and he was talking. His whole mindset with this was scale, scale, scale.
And I was like, well, yes, scale is important, but if we get into the park and we can't operate it correctly, then scale is worthless. Like, my whole idea is to. When we get, when I get into something, I'm going to work hard, I'm going to do everything it takes and make it happen first. And then once I know it's succeeding, then I'm going to go full force into adding more and actually scaling from there.
[00:13:20] Speaker A: So, so is that, so is that your. Your goal is to get the second park or. Or is it to integrate other services into parks in general? Because you mentioned it's.
[00:13:29] Speaker B: It's a bit of both. Since that there's another partner in this and he's. He's been in real estate. Well, his dad was in real estate. He's got an immense wealth of knowledge regarding just analyzing deals and calling up brokers, doing the stuff that I really don't like. I don't mind doing it.
[00:13:48] Speaker A: Your weaknesses.
[00:13:49] Speaker B: Exactly. So I like to innovate. I like to look at things and imagine like where something could be and then how to actually get to that point. And to make it happen. That's my strength. That's what I pursue. So, like, with this park, it came with 26 and a half acres, and it was beautiful. Right. So it was split perfectly. We have this massive field to the left side and then the park side to the right.
So the first thing I saw was, hey, this actually can be split up and we can put up a venue. Because I know the wedding scene very well. My wife's been in the wedding industry. So that's actually what we're doing right now. We just finished up a secondary road, so second entrance to the property. And we're going to be splitting up the both sides, putting the venue in, increase that profitability of this property in general.
But during that time, during this time, we are looking to buy some more. So we're.
[00:14:46] Speaker A: We're.
[00:14:46] Speaker B: We're actually just on the call. We're just on a call yesterday with a broker the day before, running numbers and realizing that most of these brokers don't know what they're talking about.
[00:14:58] Speaker A: Right, right, right. We, we. We did a little test to see how many brokers in Texas actually had multiple parks. Because we're trying to see what the ratio was. And it was about 90% of them only really messed with, like, one part. So it's probably more. It's not a whole lot of data, but it's most likely those guys are, you know, they do one, maybe two parks in the next five years. You know, they don't really do it. They do other things. Hopefully that's not all do, but there's 10 that have, you know, two, five, 10, or 15 parks. You can tell they focus on it.
So, you know, if you were working with a guy, you might want to work with somebody that does it often, you know.
[00:15:37] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:15:37] Speaker A: Yep.
[00:15:38] Speaker B: You got to make sure they know what they're doing. And, you know, I.
This is a statement that Eric and I both really live by. When we're looking at any type of property is we really. We don't look at performance, we don't look at what it could be. We look at actuals. We look at like the logistic numbers. At the end of the day that we're buying what it is, we're not buying what it could be.
I love saying when I go to buy a car, what's that?
[00:16:02] Speaker A: People want to sell the dream. And they're like, don't look at the previous 12 months. It's going to do great. Yeah, yeah. I always hear this. Oh, there's this big construction project in it's. Going to be full next year. There's a solar farm project. It's going to be full. But the past 12, 18, 24 months says you know, like that's what makes me look at, you know. Yeah.
[00:16:21] Speaker B: So I look at real, I look at the reality and you know what, what I like to say is when I'm going to buy a car, going to buy a car, I'm not going to buy a car because it could be a rocket ship. Right. That's, that's what I'm. I'm like I just want the car. Like that's the. In reality with it.
[00:16:38] Speaker A: I bet a seller would love to hear that one.
[00:16:40] Speaker B: Oh yeah.
We just really, we really upset the broker yesterday and got a really mean response from him because we just offered what it really could be like, you know, looked at our numbers, looked at the cost, what it would actually entail and you know, if we're going to get into it, it's going to be negative every single month because like on top of mortgage and what we actually have to spend, it's.
[00:17:05] Speaker A: I'm not good the scr.
[00:17:08] Speaker B: Yep. So which kind of like is. It's a fun part. I love looking at numbers. I love running that. Eric enjoys that more so he's taken that that launch on that side of the business of looking for more parks on my side, this is kind of where the AI runs into play.
[00:17:26] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:17:27] Speaker B: So this is AI has been super fun for me.
I've been using it since it came out and just playing around with it at first and not realizing the power behind was really cheesy when it first.
[00:17:39] Speaker A: Came out, when GPT first look at this extra figurine. Look at my picture exactly.
[00:17:45] Speaker B: It was really funny to use. And then what when I really saw the power of it was when I actually closed this park I used AI a lot of like to scan documents, to quickly run through the numbers and to pump out exactly what I want to see and how I want to see it. So I was able to streamline that process with that. And then what do you use the.
[00:18:11] Speaker A: AI to scan docs with which one to use.
[00:18:13] Speaker B: So you can use actually any LLM currently now it all comes down to the prompting. So if you use like GPT5 you can scan a document with it and that's kind of like it's. It's crazy but you just upload the document. And what I like to use is kind of a framework of prompting but also a security and documents. So most people when they use GPT they Actually just go up on there and just chat with it. That's not how I use gbt. What I do is I actually create a multitude of documents. And whether that's examples of how I analyze a deal or it's information of like how to actually analyze deals, maybe it's a book or something I really like. And I take.
Yep, due diligence. And I take all of that and I put it into.
I put it into either project or go into GPT actually OpenAI playground and I'll upload the documents in there.
And then when I'm prompting to get the response of analyzing a deal, I'll do my. I call it my five step prompt structure.
It's. There's a lot of different structures out there. This is the one that just works best for me. So the first is like context. So when you're prompting in there, you just want to do the context, like what this is who this chat is supposed to be. And then you have your instructions. So it's like, hey, I want you to run through this as a investor in the RV park world.
[00:19:37] Speaker A: Or.
[00:19:38] Speaker B: And then you're also an appraiser. An appraiser is a good one. Like a. Because you really want to understand that aspect of it as well.
And then you have an output format. So it's just like explaining, hey, I want it to look like this with bullet points.
I want you to have titles to be underlined, right? You just how you like to read.
And then I go into the rules, like the do's and don'ts. Like, hey, don't look at the pro forma, right? Don't look at imaginary numbers. If you don't understand something, don't say anything.
[00:20:12] Speaker A: Right?
[00:20:12] Speaker B: Don't put that in there. If you don't understand it, don't say it. Just leave it out and make a note on something you don't understand. And those. That's an important rule that a lot of people don't look at, I think.
[00:20:24] Speaker A: I have not thought about that. Yeah, throw some out there, you know.
[00:20:31] Speaker B: And it's. So there's so many hallucinations regarding AI, even the GPT5. Like there's a lot of hallucinations. And so the last one I do to really set it in is an example.
And from there I get really good accurate results.
And so that's kind of like my understanding of AI of like what I've been using it for. But what I've been also doing recently, I've been doing two things on the side. When I get the Time is I'm actually rolling out a school group and my goal for this group is actually just to teach business owners, employees, anybody that's in the business realm on how to use AI ethically and properly in their company. Because I have, all right, I'll send it to you.
[00:21:15] Speaker A: Because I try to use, I try to use more of it since I haven't spent enough time to really go down to any, anywhere close to the amount of layers you're doing, you know, because I can use a lot more from my construction company or the parks or like analyzing deals. Just a lot of more stuff that I'm doing that I'm not using a ton of it, like, as such a.
[00:21:34] Speaker B: The big thing is really about how to save time because most businesses, when they use it or employees, like, I actually helped out a nonprofit the other day.
They came to me and they were just talking like they're struggling. This lady was put in charge because 50% of the stakeholders don't want to use AI. The other 50% say we don't care. But then half most of the employees are using it. And she's like, we don't know the compliance behind this. We don't know the ethics. And I was like, well, first of all, you got to get it in control because the problem with AI is if you're not creating a good funnel, it's going to have multiple different outputs. And so creating a good funnel is to ensure that all your employees are actually holding up to what the stakeholders need.
So I, I kind of like helped her walk through, like how to set up a gbt, how to ensure all the employees are using the same prompts. You know, you just have like a standard set of prompts and it's, it's really simple once you break that down.
And so, yeah, that's, that's a little sneak peek of what I'm doing. This is going to be rolled out probably in the next 20 days. I'm pretty much done with it. I just got to do all the sit down and record and, yeah, teaching part of it. And then the second, the second project I'm doing, which is specific for RV parks alone, is something that I was trying to apply. Here is the an AI phone receptionist website chatbot and an SMS reply chatbot.
So I was going through, I was like, you know, I could build this myself, but I just want to see the other companies out there and there's tons of different AI receptionists and, you know, they're just broad. So what I'm building right now With a actually computer engineer that is also an AI that him and I, we just connected a while back ago. So we're building something out specifically for our reparks to where after hours when somebody calls and nobody can answer or somebody's on another call, it goes to that receptionist, the AI receptionist, and it walks through the steps. It can book their site for them if they want it to or it can just leave a message. So it's just kind of like a little bit help, more helpful. And it also takes notes in regards to like the phone calls that the manager is having. So if there's something that you go back on and look at and then with like the website chatbot, it's the same thing. They can go on there, ask questions, they can book their site through that or with a text message, they can text us and it will reply and then also book their site through that. So we're integrating with camp spot in order to do that. Which is. Yeah, which is amazing in my mind because we get so many people that call in regarding to help booking a site and a lot of them call us after hours, which the way we were set up is our manager answers the call during her on hours and then after hours it's supposed to go to the camp host, but the camp hosts don't have access to the office or the booking platform.
So it's just something that, that would help us. And so our goal is to frame this just to be specifically for RV parks and campgrounds.
[00:24:43] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. I love the framework of, you know, hey, the, the on site manager, Mr. Calls. I'm the. We're the extra, you know, help or whatever the good wordage is because it's usually something basic like, hey, I was looking at this, I had a question. Will my rig fit where, you know, or you know, just something silly. There's always a silly question. Some people want you to get help and then just having that to where you never miss a call is huge too.
[00:25:09] Speaker B: Oh yeah, it's. It's massive. It builds good credibility. And I don't want to take the human aspect. I'll be clear with this. I don't ever want to take the human aspect out of RV parks.
[00:25:20] Speaker A: People will still call it 9:00pm though.
[00:25:23] Speaker B: Yeah, he'll still call at 9:00pm, 7.
[00:25:25] Speaker A: In the morning or 9:00pm it's like, come on, dude, like Sunday at 7:00pm I'm sitting there eating some wings, having a couple beers, watching football.
[00:25:34] Speaker B: Oh, there's always a complaint or something and like they need to ask some question. Like, hey, when is this going to happen? Or you know, is my package there yet? And just having something that answers and just says, yeah, we'll, we'll let you know when we figure that out.
[00:25:48] Speaker A: Right?
Yeah, yeah, we'll get back to your business hours. Come on. Exactly.
[00:25:53] Speaker B: Get back when we're actually in the office.
[00:25:56] Speaker A: So.
[00:25:57] Speaker B: But yeah, that's, those are the things that I've been doing.
We're just looking to get more parks, improve this park, get the profitability up, build that venue.
Working on my little school account and then with the AI receptionist for RV park. That's, that's.
It sounds like a lot. I know it is.
[00:26:21] Speaker A: You're going, man, that's. Wow. Yeah, exactly.
[00:26:25] Speaker B: I'm not afraid to try stuff. But more importantly, at this point in my life, I've just learned how to work.
You know, through the years of just when I put my headphones in, I kind of like, I have these blue light glasses. So my mind, I, I put the, the noise canceling headphones on, my blue light glasses on. And then everything else is gone. I'm Clark, I'm, I'm Clark Kent or I'm Superman at that point.
[00:26:47] Speaker A: And then I just dial in. I love it.
[00:26:49] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:26:50] Speaker A: Yeah, that's, that's powerful. Getting rid of those stinking distractions. Oh yeah, because they wear us out.
[00:26:55] Speaker B: Oh, absolutely.
[00:26:57] Speaker A: You can zone in, you can be two, three times more efficient than normally. So that's cool.
But, but I think it's a good point to start wrapping this thing up. What's the ways can reach out to you?
You know, with your, your AI stuff coming up or if they have some deals that you look for or just in general, what's some ways website or something, they can reach out to you?
[00:27:17] Speaker B: Yeah, absolutely. So currently I don't have a website, but if you go through my social media. So Carter Campbell. So that. Just search up Carter Campbell and you'll see my social profiles. There will be a website being popped up there shortly with all of the things I'm having in there.
If you're looking to send us a park and you're interested to, you know, sell your park, you can send it to hometownrvpmail.com that's a great one for us to look at.
And then if it's regarding AI or AI questions, just reach me out either through my email or through social media. And My email is ke investments gmail.com. so.
[00:27:56] Speaker A: Awesome. Awesome. And if I'm serious, if you do have like a course or something, I would, I would Be a guest on it.
[00:28:02] Speaker B: All right. Yeah, I. I'll.
[00:28:04] Speaker A: I'll.
[00:28:04] Speaker B: I'll send it to you once it gets rolled out. So, yeah, I mean, I'll just, like, add this little snidbit. What the reason it's taking me a little bit time to get it out there, because I am. What I'm doing, is when anybody signs up for this, it's. It's not going to be crazy. It's not a crazy expensive course. It's actually a pretty cheap course. In my mind. It's going to probably price it at like 50 bucks. So it's very cheap, it's very affordable because I'm aiming it towards smaller businesses. But when you join, I'm going to build you a custom GPT.
You get a full AI tool stack. So it's just a website with all these different AI tools.
You get a AI audit for your business. So, like, what that is, you type in your business and it runs through and it goes through all your online reviews. It goes through things that you can prove on what it's lacking in, what you're great at or. And it also determines, hey, is my company, does it need AI or is it okay without it? And so those are the things that you'll get once in the group. So it's just something that, in my mind, really helps to kickstart people's movement with AI. So, yeah.
[00:29:04] Speaker A: Yeah. Sounds like there'll be a lot of value there.
[00:29:06] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:29:07] Speaker A: So awesome, man. Well, there you guys have it. Feel free to reach out to Mr. Carter and folks out there. If you guys own at least one RV park and want to be a future episode here, you can fly
[email protected]. so that will do it for us. Thanks.
[00:29:22] Speaker B: All right.
[00:29:23] Speaker A: But yeah, man, that was good stuff.
[00:29:26] Speaker B: Awesome.
[00:29:26] Speaker A: Thank you. Lots of little nuggets and seems like you're on a good path and a good little mission there, so. I like it.
[00:29:32] Speaker B: Yes, it's a lot of work.
Yes, it's a lot of work, I'll be honest.
But, you know, I'm. I'm young. I'm 25, gonna be 20, so the.
[00:29:46] Speaker A: Way I'm 38, not too old.
[00:29:48] Speaker B: Oh, there you go.
So I just have a lot of things I'm trying to do. And so if I want to get there, I have to put in the hours.
And I don't. I mean, haul out for you. I don't know if you've ever read this book or you've. Have you ever heard of Alex Hermosi?
[00:30:05] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:30:06] Speaker B: Okay. So have you ever read this book?
The $100 million?
[00:30:09] Speaker A: I read like the first. Is that the fourth one?
[00:30:12] Speaker B: Yeah, this is the last one he just, he just made.
[00:30:15] Speaker A: Okay. No, I heard about it, but I've been a little slacking on, on books lately, so.
[00:30:20] Speaker B: Man, this is, this is a solid book. It's like the first one mixed with the second book he made.
But the money model that we're doing just for like our monthlies came out of this. So it's. You have actually I'll just pull it up and read it. So what we're structuring everything in the park to be is like having our attraction or having an upsell. So we're actually, we just added a new service which is a pressure washing service, which we have a guy local so he can come in and do it whenever we get that. So that's our upsell. We have a down sell. So for our monthlies, if they're like, hey, that's too expensive, we'll tell them, well, how about you just come and stay with us for two weeks at a prorated rate of the monthly rate. That's the monthly price and you can see how it feels. So that's our downsell and then our continuity is to get them on the six month, which is that stay with us six months and that seventh month is free.
So it's. That's kind of like the whole money model for there. And then we're creating the same money model for the weekenders. So if you get a chance, I'd.
[00:31:24] Speaker A: Recommend Audible right now.
[00:31:26] Speaker B: Yeah, it's a, it's a great book, man. I, I've. I've consumed it and in fact, like speaking with like AI, what I've done with AI for this as well is so I've took, I've taken all of Alex Hermosi's books and I put them into my own gbt. I've taken, I've taken his videos and I made a Hermosi style GBT which, you know, when I'm framing and you know, I framed it to be for Hometown. So it's like I specifically uploaded Hometown's documents into it. So I can go in there and I can create offers and I know it's not going to be like popping out, you know, hallucination, be accurate to something that I know works and yeah, that's awesome. That's just what helps me really quick.
[00:32:12] Speaker A: Yeah, that's, that's the layer of things that I'm personally missing is it's like kind of those ideas?
[00:32:17] Speaker B: Yep.
Well, those. I.
There was a guy on social media, he. His thing was, hey, if you're young and you're trying to do anything great, just study AI as best as you can. Like just study. Just dive deep into it. So I took that to heart and I mean, you probably. My. My thread line with all the AIs that I've used, it's. It's mountains. Mean, I've probably put in just from the output responses. I probably have like over well over millions of texts just looking for.
[00:32:53] Speaker A: I can imagine.
[00:32:54] Speaker B: So it's fun though.
[00:32:57] Speaker A: That's awesome, man.
Well, cool. I appreciate your time.
I look forward to talking to you again sometime on Future Deal or some. Something else too.
[00:33:06] Speaker B: Yeah, absolutely. Well, if.
Let me know. I'd love to be on the podcast again in the. In the future or near future, whatever. If I. Once I roll something out and if you like it, I'd love to comment again. So.
[00:33:19] Speaker A: Yeah, sounds good, man.
[00:33:21] Speaker B: I got one more question for you.
[00:33:22] Speaker A: Yeah. Yes, sir.
[00:33:23] Speaker B: It's just something. So is the video going to be recorded or is it just the voice?
[00:33:28] Speaker A: Yeah, the video. So that way I can. I'm gonna share it with you, of course. And that way.
[00:33:34] Speaker B: Yeah, I was gonna ask if you could share that with me and then I'll. I'm gonna clip it as well if that's fine with you. If I clip it and then I'll tag you in there. That way people can come.
[00:33:43] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm easy with that. This is just my attempt to do more stuff that I don't like doing.
But yeah, I'm making a note right now to make sure. And get this.
Get this over to you. So cool.
[00:33:57] Speaker B: Awesome, man. Dude, thank you.
This. This made my day.
[00:34:01] Speaker A: Awesome. Hell yeah. Good to hear, brother. See you.
[00:34:04] Speaker B: Bye.
[00:34:04] Speaker A: Bye.
