What does it take to build not just one successful vacation rental business, but 14 different companies? Sébastien Grosjean joins The Vacation Rental Show to share entrepreneurial wisdom gained from over two decades in the industry and a family legacy spanning four decades. What you'll learn: Why ego is both essential for starting a business and your biggest blind spot as you grow How 90 percent of listings are losing 10-20 percent of revenue due to underoptimized photos and descriptions The difference between urgent fires and important needle-movers in your daily operations Why working ON your business instead of IN it requires daily learning as a practice How cross-pollinating with other industries creates breakthrough innovations you can't see from inside vacation rentals The two critical delegation challenges that stop property management companies from scaling Sébastien brings a unique perspective as someone who launched the industry's first channel manager and has continued to innovate across multiple businesses.
