Consistency defines success.
This week, I grabbed coffee with the CEO of probably the most legendary management company in the Smoky Mountains.
They’ve been around a long time.
He’s seen the market change many times.
There is an unsteady fear that a lot of investors have right now. (Some for good reason.)
This company has been around for over 50 years. They have been delivering great experiences and management for owners for long time.
Really cool to see.
The point of today’s newsletter:
Consistency defines success.
The market is unsteady and may continue to be. If you own a vacation rental, what does this mean for you?
Practically, be consistent.
I’ve seen owners try three management companies, multiple cleaners, and multiple pricing strategies in just one year before trying to sell their property.
That is an extreme, real life example.
What I’m trying to say is: Don’t change too much too fast. You need to be able to make decisions based on data. And not short term data.
The CEO I talked to has done this with a company thats been around for over 50 years. He’s still doing it.
I learned a lot. Haven will be this company one day. Right now, I am applying what I have learned. I hope you do the same.
