⚡️ Today you may have noticed an email from me in your inbox inviting you to the @vrma Foundations in Savannah.
Yes, I fully approved the message and added a personal note at the bottom.
Did you already delete the email?
No worries, I've got you! Here's my personal note:
"If this is your team member's first time at an event, tell us. And I'll personally greet them and connect them with others immediately to ease any anxiety they might have with this new experience."
I'm collaborating with two incredible women for our session on The Art of Sales & Service --> @theamberhurdle and Lauren Madewell
I promise 😂 and 💡
This session is NOT recorded
You (or your team) need to be there in person
I handpicked the Speakers in the Office track for you:
@conradoconnell, Robin Bass, surprise speaker, and wrapping up with hospitality extraordinaire Marco DiDomizio

It's been wild (to me) for awhile that people will drop $100k - $200k in cash and take on up to $1m in debt based on Airdna data alone... xitter.cf/MHarringtonNC/status/1…
Replying to @STRHuntr
So we manage this home, and have for a while. Pretty risky bet buying high end rental real estate using AirDNA as the basis for income. While this owner uses a couple weeks in the earlier season and opens up in mid-April, it’s still a far cry to get there in a seasonal beach area

If you're an Airbnb host or property manager looking for photo inspiration for casual photo posts on Instagram, I find the best place to look is actually on the subreddit "CozyPlaces".
