    ...rrez.com/vacation-rental-channel-manager best channel manager in the vacation rental industry, we do a lot of work on monitoring and improving our channel connections. While we can't work on channel stuff every week, we constantly make notes so that we can jump on improvements when the time allows. Not a month goes by when we aren't making channel updates. In this release, we hit a couple of things w...

    We released an update earlier today that was mostly aboutProperty Management stuff, but we slipped in a couple things for emailing that will make your life a lot easier. We have a lot ofchanges coming for guest communication - responding toinquiries, dealing with guest responses, capturing a timeline/thread of everything - but we wanted to fix a problem that has been frustrating users for awhile.

    Good stuff. Hoping this is addressed in the future unified inbox I heard about I think for 2023. I've seen a very cool app from Enso Connect that asks the guest what their preferred communication method is. Maybe consider something similar for each message that goes out, to allow the guest to select how they want to hear from us. OwnerRez's system could only offer the options the host has subscribed to...

Some of those things are already done by channels and we'd have to direct them to the channel on those bookings, but would work for direct book...

    From what I've heard, OR is working on getting channel messaging (i.e. replying through Vrbo, Airbnb, etc.) implemented, so once that goes live, we'll be able to send some stuff there, although rich content like PDF welcome packets and things might still have to go via email, and URLs might get censored (TBD).

If you want to add a new property, don't bother to do that in the channel; do it in OwnerRez, and then let OR push all that stuff to the channel when you turn on the API connection for that property, which is what it's going to do anyway.

    I highly recommend talking to Ximplify who we started partnering with for accounting stuff awhile back. We push PMs, large and small, in their direction. Good folks over there who know how to use OwnerRez, QuickBooks and a lot more . We are working with them a lot on expanding our QB integration to many more things and change accounting models to be more correct in general.

    When you put a comment on the amenity, it'll show on the hosted website.

    For the event center, mark it as "events allowed". For stuff like that and also minimum age, the details would go in the text fields and then perhaps in your renter agreement. Again, there's no way for us to enforce that on the channels so it's informational a...

    HomeAway strips out a ton of formatting from the email in their effort to block all contact info. They basically convert everything to plain text, and their conversion algorithm can jumble stuff up.
