for STRs i automate the initial booking message, a msg a few days before, a msg with their checkin instructions the morning of, a msg 24h after arrival, a msg the night before checkout, and a msg a few hours after checkout. in doing so, you'll never have to manually reach out unless they have a problem/question. the key is write your automated messages so they sound authentic and friendly, anticipate the guest's needs before they can ask questions, and constantly tweak your process if you find that you're still having to answer the same Qs over and over.
