How to Build the Apple of Vacation Rentals: Imagining, Creating, and Scaling the Wander Brand

Meet Kyle Tibbitts, Chief Marketing Officer at Wander, a network of smart, luxury vacation rentals that’s on a mission to verticalize the short-term rental experience.  If you were to have asked Kyle as a 10-year-old what he wanted to be when he grew up, he would have told you a lawyer, which, today, Kyle would tell you would have been a huge mistake. But if you were to have asked Kyle what he wanted to be just a few years later, he would have told you an architect — from a young age he had a deep appreciation for design and a longing to build things. And while Kyle wouldn’t go on to design or build structures, he would go on to help design and build some of the most incredible brands in hospitality and real estate.  Tune in to hear Kyle’s stories and musings about: What he learned while working at HotelTonight — a marketplace for last-minute hotel bookings that was ultimately acquired by Airbnb The growth marketing lessons he learned while working at Open Door How he met John Andrew, the Founder and CEO of Wander on Twitter and what it was about Wander that was so compelling to him How he and the team built the Wander brand Lessons learned when trying to build a consistently luxurious, yet distributed hospitality product  How Wander has pivoted over the last 12 months in light of macro-economic shifts  The vision for the Wander brand over 2024  And so much more This episode is brought to you by our friends at AirDNA Want to see if a Treehouse resort in Dubai pencils?  You can do so in AirDNA.
