    From Wes Smithe, Co-Founder & CEO:

    "I have been an entrepreneur learning & growing in the vacation rental industry for close to a decade, starting out working on the front lines with over 500 property owners in 10 markets across the country. Along the way, I helped my clients generate over $10 MM in income, and then after experiencing firsthand the difficulties working with incumbent property management systems, I saw an opportunity, and made a difficult decision in early 2017: completely pivot my focus to providing enterprise vacation rental managers with a next-gen, B2B software solution that was built from scratch with the latest web technology.
