Owners Podcast I am a member of Matt Landau’s “Inner Circle” which is a great forum for owners to share resources, experiences and to learn from each other. That’s where I first came across Donna Martinez. Donna has been renting her property in Sea Ranch, California since 2013 – a short time to turn this beautiful home into a nearly fully-booked rental. Granted, she has the most stunning property to work with but it takes no mean effort to create a business that delivers a WOW experience to everyone who visits. From an outstanding website to a category-packed Pinterest account, and a Facebook page that really engages, Donna uses social media in the right way, and she shares some of her tactics and strategies in this episode. We also discuss why Donna uses an agency to manage her bookings and what the benefits and drawbacks are.
