STR in Progress

This book was great! There were lots of great insider tips as a 1-time STR Host and have been in the internet marketing space for some time, I still picked up new strategies as well as was rekindled in methods if either learned or used before, but Mark showed me how to apply them in the STR space. The nuances he proposed were significant and I plan to implement them! Definitely a book for those who want to take their STR to the next level!
