88. Guest Comms That Drive More 5-Star Reviews
I sit down with Ariel Smith, a hospitality powerhouse who went from sales rep to managing a 60-person guest comms team—and now runs her own short-term rental company with 30 properties in one of the most competitive markets: San Diego.
Ariel shares her journey from her early days at Home Suite and AvantStay (back when they only had 30 listings!) to building a thriving, hospitality-first STR business.
Whether you’re an operator with 3 properties or 300, this episode is a masterclass in hospitality strategy and operational excellence.
