In this special edition of Unlocked, we're airing the first episode of the How to Save Your Vacation Rental Business podcast and kicking it off with an exclusive intro from Matt and Dana.  This new podcast is produced by VRMB Communities, hosted by Dana and something Matt's been passionate about for sometime, now. Vacation rental professionals can no longer afford to ignore community based advocacy.  In this episode you’ll meet Dana and hear from voices around the industry about the scope of the problem and how the pandemic has made regulation an even more volatile issue.  We’ll explore the concept of advocacy and community and hear four key takeaways that are critical for your business right now.
