Manage episode 450996500 series 2504329
In this episode, we’re thrilled to sit down with Brent Hieggelke, the visionary founder of Trustr, a groundbreaking platform redefining the short-term rental experience.
Brent brings decades of experience in the vacation rental world, and together, we dive into how Trustr taps into the power of social networks to create trusted, more personal guest-host connections. Say goodbye to renting to total strangers and hello to curated "guest lists" of friends, family, and acquaintances!
We explore how this innovative model leverages word-of-mouth recommendations, integrates with property management tools, and even uses an affiliate-style approach to enhance platforms like Airbnb and VRBO.
Whether you're a property owner hesitant to list or a guest seeking more authentic stays, this episode is packed with insights into the future of short-term rentals. Tune in now to hear how Truster is bridging the gap and opening new doors!
