Have you already downloaded your personal “Manual For Vacation Rental Owners” ???
Dear Vacation Rental Owner,
have you forgotten why you ever started with vacation rentals? Is all getting you down? You imagined interesting guests and a healthy second income. You’ve got endless chores and piles of bills.
Momentum is a cruel fact of life. When people do well, they are buoyed by their own success, and go on to greater achievements. When things go wrong, they seem to keep going wrong relentlessly. Eventually, the knocks can wear you down. You lose your spark, everything is a drag. You’re certainly not projecting holiday spirit to your guests!
You can escape from the cycle. To start with you need to ‘step outside of yourself’. Take an objective look at the situation. If you’ve got enough awareness to recognise you have a problem, then you’ve just taken the first step to making things better.
Use external resources to help give you clarity on where you might be going wrong. A book like “100 Tips For Successful Renting” will give you lots of good ideas, without overwhelming you.
Start taking a regular afternoon coffee break with your “100 Tips For Successful Renting” book. It’s never wasted time to let your mind relax and become more open to the bigger picture.
Take three sheets of paper. Write one of your goals in a bubble in the centre of each sheet. Every time you come across a tip or an idea that would help to achieve you goal, write it on the piece of paper like a spider diagram. Don’t be afraid of writing in your own ideas, drawing lines to link ideas together even putting in some color. You’ll amaze yourself with your own creativity – and very soon you’ll have drawn your own route map out of your rut.
Don’t try to fix everything at once. With all your ideas on paper, pick one or two that you think would make the most difference. Then book some regular time in your diary to make it happen. 15 minutes every day is perfect. 12 hours straight once a year is not so good.
Keep your book by your bedside, and your diagram prominently displayed. Keep your eye firmly on the goal. Become defined by your dreams, not by your chores
Wish you successful renting!
Sincerely yours

This is a great idea. You want to learn as much as possible before diving into the vacation rental business.
This is great information for those looking to travel!
As I am in the business of selling vacation rentals, it looks to be very useful read for me. I will certainly buy it and will also suggest it to other vacation rentals owners. Thank for the information.
Really useful book for vacation rental owners.
Invaluable resource for vacation rental owners.
I like the suggestion about writing your goals on separate sheets of paper and then writing down tips/ideas as you come across them. A great technique for anything in life, especially rentors. Thanks for the advice!
I purchased the book 1 month ago and I can say – it’s a straightforward (and even fun!) approach based on simple marketing strategies and a commitment to focus and increasing your bookings in a systematic way. It challenges the traditional vacation rental property advertising approach, and will help you achieve profitable results. …. fast.
Thank you Milan!
No, not having one is what’s getting me down
