The Comeback Year

Why Vamos exists,
and why it still matters.

Vamos Homes started with one Nairobi apartment and a group of friends who needed somewhere to stay together. That was 2014. Over the next decade, we moved 400,000+ travelers through Kenya's best group stays, pioneered the coastal villa format, and built the most recognised vacation rental audience in the country.

2025 was a year off. The founder took time to fix things at the root. Now we're back โ€” leaner, sharper, and with a stronger team. You are part of the comeback story. That's not a small thing.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

We know the coast

8 years of living and curating on Kenya's coast. Diani, Watamu, Kilifi, Mombasa, Malindi. We know which villas deliver and which ones disappoint.

๐Ÿ‘ฅ

Built for groups

Girls trips, family getaways, corporate retreats, birthday weekends. We created the group villa category in Kenya before anyone else was doing it.

๐Ÿค–

Tech-first operation

Vee, our AI assistant, handles first-line DMs across Instagram and Facebook instantly, 24/7. You are the human layer on top of that.

๐Ÿš€

This moment is real

New financial leadership, new systems, new team. You joined at the right time. The audience is there โ€” 106,000 followers who never left. We just need to serve them well.

You and Vee.
How this actually works.

Vee is the AI assistant trained on 10,000+ real Vamos conversations. She handles the first response, qualifies leads, and collects key information. You are her boss. You step in to add the human touch, handle calls, manage complex conversations, and make clients feel heard.

Hi! Yes, we have great options for 8 in Diani. Could you share your exact dates and if there are any couples in the group? That helps me match you to the right villa.

Got it! I have 3 options that fit โ€” one beachfront, one with a big pool close to town, and one that's great for groups who want outdoor space. Let me pull those for you.

Hi! This is Libra, I'm following this conversation and happy to help. The beachfront option is genuinely special for Easter โ€” it goes fast. If you want to ask anything or just talk it through, I'm here ๐Ÿ™‚

Your role, clearly.

Vee handles volume. You handle warmth. Between the two, no client falls through the cracks and every conversation feels personal.

This is your territory

Any client who asks for a call, wants to speak to a human, has a complex question, seems hesitant, or needs reassurance โ€” that's your moment. You take over, you close it with warmth. You are also the one who spots when Vee's response misses something and steps in to correct the experience before the client notices.

๐Ÿ“Š

Weekly reports

Every week you submit a brief customer feedback report. What questions are repeating? What's confusing clients? What went well? This directly improves Vee's responses and the team's decisions.

๐ŸŽฏ

Booking influence

Every booking you directly influence earns you a commission. The cleaner your handoff from Vee to booking confirmed, the more you earn. You're not just support โ€” you're a closer.

๐Ÿค–

Not your job

First-line DMs on Instagram and Facebook โ€” Vee owns those. You monitor, but you don't need to respond to every incoming message. Step in when the conversation needs a human.

The Vamos voice.
How we write.

Vamos sounds like a knowledgeable Kenyan friend who has been everywhere and is genuinely excited to help. Not corporate. Not cold. Not over-formal. And never robotic. This is especially important for you โ€” your messages should feel like a real person, because you are one.

โœ“ Do this
"Hi Sharon! This is Libra from Vamos. Just saw your message โ€” we have exactly what you need for Easter. Give me 2 minutes."
"That one is genuinely good. Been there โ€” the pool is the best part."
"Totally get it. Let me check that and come back to you in a bit."
โœ— Not this
"Dear valued customer, I am pleased to inform you that we have availability for your requested dates."
"As per our records, the property in question has the following specifications..."
"Please find attached the relevant information for your perusal."
The golden rule
Short, warm, specific. If your message is longer than 3 sentences, you are over-explaining. Trust the client to understand. Trust yourself to be brief.

What you earn,
and where.

You earn your agreed monthly retainer regardless. On top of that, every booking you directly influenced earns you a commission based on the town. Coast towns carry higher margins and reward you more.

What counts as "directly influenced": A booking that came through a conversation where you were actively involved โ€” you made the follow-up, you took the call, you sent the reassurance message that got them to say yes. If Vee closed it entirely with no human touch, that's Vee's win. If you stepped in and moved it forward, that's yours. Honest assessment, reviewed monthly.

When conversations
get difficult.

We are being honest with you: some clients may reach out who are frustrated from a previous experience. This is known. The founder is actively resolving those situations personally. Your job if this happens is clear โ€” do not argue, do not make promises, escalate immediately.

1

Acknowledge, don't defend

If a client mentions a past issue, acknowledge them with warmth. Never argue. Never justify. Just let them feel heard.

"Hi, I hear you and I'm sorry for the experience you had. I'm going to make sure this reaches the right person today. Can I take your name and the booking reference if you have it?"
2

Escalate immediately, same hour

Forward the conversation details to Abbas directly on WhatsApp. Don't sit on it. An angry client who feels ignored gets louder. One who gets a quick human response usually calms down.

3

Never make financial promises

You are not authorised to promise refunds, discounts, or compensation. Your role in a difficult conversation is to make the client feel heard and get them to the right person. Nothing more.

"I completely understand your frustration. Let me make sure Abbas sees this personally โ€” he's the right person to resolve this and I know he will. I'll follow up with you within the hour."
4

Log it in your weekly report

Every difficult conversation gets noted. What was the issue? What was said? How was it handled? This data makes the whole team better.

What success
looks like for you.

Not tasks completed. Not messages sent. We measure what actually matters โ€” clients who felt well-served, bookings that happened, and a brand that people trust again.

๐Ÿ˜Š
Happy client rate
Clients who say something positive or rebook. This is the most important number.
๐Ÿ“ž
Calls that convert
When you take a call, does it result in a booking? This tells you your close rate.
โฑ๏ธ
Human response time
When Vee flags that a human is needed, how fast do you step in? Under 30 minutes is the target.
A message from the team
You're not just customer support. You're the reason a client chooses Vamos over a competitor. You're the human moment in a digital conversation. When you do that well โ€” and we know you will โ€” the brand grows because of you. Welcome, Libra. This is going to be a good year.
