GUEST'S BIOMarcus Rader has been in tech startups since 2006. Six years ago, he saw an opportunity to get involved in an industry he is passionate about - vacation rentals. Existing solutions in this space were built by real estate and travel professionals, rather than technology professionals. In co-founding Hostaway, the all-in-one vacation rental management software, Marcus' team had an immediate competitive advantage. He also dedicated himself to learning about the vacation rental ecosystem and creating a network of valuable relationships in the industry. Today, Marcus is the CEO of Hostaway which is the fastest-growing solution on the market. They are the preferred partners of big OTAs including Airbnb, Booking.com, and VRBO, and have the largest marketplace in the sector with more than 100 integrated software partners.HIGHLIGHTS OF THE EPISODENOTABLE QUOTES"Speed kills." - Mike Sjogren"There's a great value in combining smaller things to make them into something bigger." - Emanuele Pani"As you grow your business, you're going to notice that whatever worked yesterday does not work anymore." - Marcus Rader"Every business is built on people."  - Marcus RaderCONNECT WITH THE GUESTMarcus Rader: LinkedinHostawayCONNECT WITH THE HOSTS Michael Sjogren: Short Term Rental Secrets Facebook Group | Clubhouse | Instagram | Youtube | Facebook Page | Linkedinhttps://linktr.ee/the_airbnbguyEmanuele Pani: Clubhouse | Instagram | Facebook | LinkedinFREE MASTERCLASS TRAINING - https://www.strsecrets.com/masterclass Learn more about your ad choices.
