Upselling to guests-as a business?

Does anyone upsell to guests as a systemized business model? You know, travel insurance, art work, local restaurants, special cake delivery, laundry service (for their kids at college), car service, special events, etc...etc.

I know someone who is hiring a full time person to manage just this aspect (so, it will cover their salary plus make money). 

Is it worth it? How much upside is there?

Some of my tenants as me where they can find someone to "ask out on a date tonight" if you know what I mean.  I refer them to a certain convenience store where certain people congregate in hopes of being "asked out on a date".
