We were thrilled to get to attend the Short-Term Rental Conference & Trade Show in West Dover, Vermont on Friday and Saturday!
For those of you who missed it, we’re covering Lodgify’s top highlights of the event below. Keep reading for all the details!
What is the Short-Term Rental Conference & Trade Show?
The Short-Term Rental Conference & Trade Show, organized by the nonprofit Vermont Short-Term Rental Alliance (VTSTRA), is an annual event that brings together industry professionals, property owners, and enthusiasts from the short-term rental sector. It provides a platform for networking, sharing best practices, and exploring the latest trends and innovations in the short-term rental market.
Attendees can participate in workshops, panel discussions, and presentations led by experts, covering a range of topics from regulatory issues to marketing strategies. The trade show component features exhibitors showcasing products and services tailored to enhance the short-term rental experience, making it a valuable resource for anyone involved in this dynamic industry.
Highlights of the event
Sponsoring and representing Lodgify with pride
Lodgify was proud to be one of three “Hero”-level sponsors of the conference (the highest sponsor level), helping to give back to an event and organization that do so much for our community.
Because we were sponsors, we were also able to represent Lodgify with a booth and lots of swag. We had branded hats, tote bags, pens, stickers, lanyards, and keyrings, among other goodies!
Four members of our team attended the event and manned our booth, and representatives from our sales department offered product demos to anyone interested in learning more about Lodgify.
Sharing our expertise
But we didn’t just sponsor and attend the event—we also presented!
Our very own Volodymyr Korol, VP of Marketing, gave a presentation on how the right PMS is your ticket to success in a saturated market. Specifically, Volodymyr shared how an effective PMS can help you create a memorable customer experience, a strong brand, and a robust back office and shared tips for selecting the best PMS for your needs.
Volodymyr was joined by Lodgify customer Kerri Gibson, the co-founder of Chalets Hygge. Kerri was able to speak to these same points from the point of view of a vacation rental business owner.
Congratulations to both Volodymyr and Kerri on a successful and informative presentation!
See you next time!
We had a great time connecting with our community and learned a lot at this year’s Short-Term Rental Conference & Trade Show. We’ll see you again next year, Vermont!
