Four years, 250 episodes, listeners in 60 countries. Annie Holcombe of the “Alex & Annie” podcast shares how a scrappy launch at VRMA turned into one of the most influential shows in short-term rentals. We cover booking hard-to-get guests, the value of cross-pollinating hotel best practices, and the power of sticking with it. Annie also announces her new consultancy, Annie & Co, and her election to the VRMA Board, with a focus on education and member value.

In this episode:

• How a consistent weekly cadence built momentum and a global audience
• Guest strategy that goes beyond operations to branding, tech origin stories, and women leaders
• Lessons STRs can borrow from hotels to level up guest experience and revenue
• Why education is the industry’s biggest gap and how VRMA can meet it
• Annie’s leap to consulting: who she helps, first 25 to 50 units, and channel diversification that actually works
• Sneak peek at VRMA Vegas: more interactive sessions, better engagement, and community vibe
