Podcast Matt Landau from the Vacation Rental Marketing Blog (VRMB.com) and the Inner Circle, joins me in one of our occasional rambles on various vacation rental topics. We talk about collaboration and learning in the industry, best books on business, forums and Facebook groups, Airbnb experiences and why branding for independent owners may not be as worthless as was claimed at the VRMA event in Amsterdam. Of course we also discuss the Vacation Rental Success Summit and how the advent of smaller independent conferences is good for our industry.
