In this episode of Get Paid For Your Pad, Kaye Putnam (Head of Marketing at Freewyld) is joined by Eric Moeller (CEO of Freewyld and Freewyld Foundry) to break down how to make the most of STR conferences.

If you’ve ever left a conference wondering whether it was worth the time or cost, this is for you. Eric shares his “3 Conference Hacks” and explains how being intentional before and during an event can dramatically change the outcome.

You’ll hear:

• Why the hallways and cocktail hours are more valuable than the panels
• How Eric preps as an introvert (hint: start with a workout)
• What questions to ask that leave a lasting impression
• The Will Guidara story that changed how Eric shows up at events
• How to host your own meetup (and why it positions you as a connector)
• Why VRMA is still the one to watch—and what we’re teaching there

We also talk about:

• The upcoming VRMA Vegas workshop: “Pricing Power: How the Top STR Hosts Outpace the Market”
• What makes that session different (no fluff, just actionable results)
• A preview of Freewyld’s newest expansion plans—and how to connect if you're a property owner or investor

• Freewyld Foundry – Revenue Management for $1M+ STR Portfolios
