VRS624 - Trust, Tech & Storytelling: The Keys to a High-Converting STR Website

In this fun and super insightful episode, I'm joined once again by vacation rental marketing expert Jodi Bourne, and we're diving headfirst into something that's never been more important - your website. With all the recent changes to the big OTAs, more and more hosts are waking up to the power of direct bookings. And at the heart of that? Your website. It's not just a digital business card anymore - it's where your brand builds trust, tells your story, and convinces guests to book directly with you. Jodi and I chat about what makes a website truly work, from smart design choices and storytelling, to using AI, social proof, trust signals, and so much more. If you're ready to turn your website into a booking machine, this one's for you.
