Vacation Rental Business
Coaching and Mentoring Program

What is a coaching program?
Mentorship is a relationship in which a more experienced or more knowledgeable person helps to guide a less experienced or less knowledgeable person.  The coach must have a certain area of expertise.

Why do we need a coaching program?
Owners benefit from coaching programs because they contribute to the development of a better-trained and engaged owner.  Coaches help investors learn the ropes at a organic level, develop relationships and identify skills that should be developed or improved upon.

Why coaching program?
An experienced knowledge-based Coaching Program for would-be or current vacation home owners.  Our purpose is to give vacation investors additional information and understanding that can help them apply methods and procedures to their own systems and investment properties.

What are the coaching skills?
The program sets out the skills required of a mentor, while learning from Coaching discusses what skills are needed to learn from a coach.  There are a number of areas which are common to both mentor and learner, such as using reflective practice.

What is the difference between coaching and mentoring?
Coaching and mentoring use the same skills and approach but coaching is short term task-based and mentoring is a longer term relationship.  WNC Realty & Rentals differentiates between coaching, mentoring and counselling.

What is the purpose of mentoring?
The knowledge, advice, and resources a mentor shares depend on the format and goals of a specific mentoring relationship.  A mentor may share with a mentee (or protege) information about his or her own career path, successes, failures as well as provide guidance, motivation, emotional support and role modeling.

Why mentoring is so important?
Mentoring programs help new or seasoned investor owners adjust to the organizational structure, trends and culture, which helps the business by bringing both the property and the owner up to speed.  Coaches and mentors within an organization gain personal and professional satisfaction by sharing their expertise with other seasoned vacation owners and managers.

What are the benefits of mentoring?
  • Opportunity to reflect on own practice.
  • Enhances business satisfaction.
  • Develops professional relationships.
  • Enhances guest reviews and recognition.
  • It uses your experience, making it available to your staff and/or vendors.
  • It widens your understanding of the organization, the vacation rental industry and the way it works.
  • It enables you to practice your creative skills while organically increasing revenue.​

What mentorship options do we provide?
  1. Two hour mentorship - Consultation with two experienced staff members (off-site)
  2. One month mentorship - Provides detailed property ideas along with website structure (on & off-site)
  3. Three month mentorship - Mentorship includes parallel partnering with mentor, weekly meetings and systems access
  4. Six month mentorship - In depth analysis of the vacation rental industry, trends, set-up and implementation of software
  5. One year mentorship - Mentor will set-up, execute, train, evaluate websites, vendors, calendar and provide year-end analysis

About Ron
My name is Ron, and my passion is real estate, coaching and international hospitality. I love everything about the business of real estate, in particular personally being a real estate investor. After experimenting with different ways to make money in real estate, I found owning properties long-term was most interesting to me and I consumed all I could about real estate investing! 

My passion is coaching and teaching, and as an investor, I started teaching free classes on being a landlord, and I focused on teaching regular people how to become successful real estate investors... Eventually, this became an entire non-profit organization based on teaching bi-monthly free classes on real estate investing, online classes and group and individual coaching. Finally, I was showing and coaching over 100 real estate investors.

My passion is international travel, and when I was in college, I was involved with international students and worked for several international student organizations. I helped American families prepare to host their exchange student, and I helped the international student acclimate to their year abroad in America.

My role was as a liaison between the host and the guest.
In 2007, I decided to try Airbnb and loved it! I started turning my long-term rental properties into short-term rentals. I did have to learn some of the "tips of the trade" the hard way, and I hope you find my articles on my Airbnb experiences, good, bad, and some ugly, exciting and fun to read!

I am so thrilled to combine these passions into my "Coach The Host" blog and very interested in sharing what I have learned with this platform. This site is full of free information and will continue to grow as our community grows. Please provide feedback about what you want to learn about and let's expand the Coach The Host community together!
