"I have worked with Jodi for nearly two years, and she has helped my business tremendously! During that time I have grown from four to twelve properties, and her services have supported me in many ways. Jodi will definitely help your STR business! (2019)

"Jodi is extremely talented in digital marketing, quite creative, and easy to work with. She developed an excellent website for my two rental condos, is very professional and has real attention to detail. If you are considering developing your own vacation rental website, save yourself a lot of aggravation and end up with a much better result."

"I saw Jodi speak at the Vacation Rental Women's Conference and her session was worth the price of my entire ticket and travel. Since then I've taken her courses and group coaching program and learned at every step. When we were ready for a website for Urban Shores, I knew exactly who would build it. She did an amazing job - and through the process helped me rethink my guest avatar and elevate the brand. Our site is beautiful and full of great information for our future guests."

Are we a good fit? Let's see!

The owners I work best with are passionate about excellent hospitality, creating comfortable and well-appointed vacation homes, and helping their guests experience an amazing vacation.

They are ready to work – and even if they don’t have time to do “all the things” they know that to reap the rewards, they have to put in effort and investment.

When we work together building your website or dialing in your social media strategy, or working on your content marketing, it’s a partnership.

I help you build and implement business and marketing strategies, give advice based on my experience and help you create more than just a vacation home, but a lasting, profitable, independent vacation rental brand.

With my diverse career in marketing, business management and customer service as well as my love of travel and experience as a guest in more than 50 vacation rentals, boutique hotels and glamping tents, I guide struggling and overwhelmed hosts as they navigate the industry, create guest-first experiences, diversify their marketing and outshine their competition.

We had the privilege of being introduced to Jodi through an acquaintance to ultimately find various ways to improve our rental business and even begin to take bookings directly.During our initial consultation, we were excited to find out that, with Jodi’s help, we could accomplish all this and more. We were sold and started working with Jodi immediately.

What began with the assistance of promoting our business on social media ultimately culminated in so much more! She helped us make decisions that helped our guest experience, reviewed and increased our pricing, edited our listing descriptions and gave us a much better understanding of the algorithms and analytics involved to make better marketing decisions.

She also built a beautiful custom-designed website and helped us build out a booking and guest communications system with Owner Rez.

The results have been incredible, demonstrated by a significant increase in the income generated with all our units, a better understanding of the industry and a tremendous sense of pride at what we’ve been able to accomplish with the help of Jodi and her team. For example, one of our most popular units has already produced a 50% increase in the first six months of 2022 in contrast to the same timeframe of 2021. Absolutely incredible!

If you have ever considered taking your vacation rental business to the next level, you truly owe it to yourself to reach out to Jodi. It will be one of the best decisions you could ever make in your business.

Are you ready to build a guest-first vacation rental business that attracts better guests, puts profits back in your pocket and gives you the freedom to make your own rules?
