The Challenge
Meta and Michael Van Skiver had a problem many entrepreneurs know well - rapid business growth without the systems to support it. Their vacation rental business started in 2021 with one property in Kissimmee, Florida, but by 2023 they were managing multiple properties across different platforms and drowning in disorganization. Meta described their daily operations as "chaotic" with information scattered across QuickBooks, reservation software, and various computer folders.
Key Pain Points:
- Their offices were messy, they couldn't find important documents quickly, and Meta was writing giant to-do lists on paper just to keep track of everything.
- Despite having good reservation software OwnerzRez, they had no unified way to see their business as a whole.
- Worse yet, if anyone got sick, no one else could step in and understand how the business operated.
- This scattered approach prevented them from scaling efficiently and left them feeling stuck in the mud.
“Lez has gone above and beyond to help us format this Notion system to our Vacation rental business. We have actually hired her as a consultant to make our business hub all the more specialized to us. This starter template was a great starting point to organize my business. I am so thankful to have found Notion and Lez. I highly recommend this template and Lez for any other templates she has made. You can also hire her as a consultant and she gives great personalized support.”
