Alright friends, today’s episode was a selfish one for me… As you know by now, I bought a sleepaway camp, and one of our biggest goals is to ramp up the amount of weddings we book. And today’s guest, Jonathan Aymin, host of the Venue Rx podcast, is THE guy to talk to on this subject.

Today we discuss all the good, bad, and ugly of what it takes to manage and/or own a venue. Jonathan breaks down the whole process from

- marketing a venue

- booking an event

- the lead up and pre-event communication

- staffing and executing the event

- and all the BTS of venue maintenance

Lastly, we chat on the ROI here and whether owning a venue is actually worth it?! This conversation was pure gold for me, and I still have a thousands more things I could learn from Jonathan!

Today we welcome Yash Bhatt to the podcast, and he has an amazing story of how real estate got him out of being a full time physician.

Yash loved his career as a pediatrician, but quickly realized the burnout that can happen in his field. He made a decision to start creating other income streams, and STRs, BRRRs, and flips became the vehicle to do that.

Today he shares with us the step-by-step plan he followed, and what his next moves will be. If you’re drowning in your W2 and looking for the off ramp, this episode will show you exactly how to do that!
