Joel shares what inspired him to enter the space, what strategies he has leveraged to grow the community, and key lessons he has had on his entrepreneurial journey. Harvest Hosts was originally founded by Don and Kim Greene in 2010, and once Joel discovered the service, he saw the opportunity to supercharge a loyal customer base with user-friendly technology and expanded locations. So in 2018, he purchased Harvest Hosts and got to work. Fast forward to today, Joel and the team have grown the platform to over 9,000 unique locations with over 260,000 members. The conversation explores the keys to this continued success, including a large emphasis on consistently across platforms, which he Joel terms “web-app parity.” Through this strategy, friction and mental burden have been reduced to make booking a stay as simple as possible.  As the episode continues, Joel shares valuable lessons he's gained throughout his entrepreneurial journey. He underscores the benefits of acquiring and scaling businesses with proven product-market fit, the necessity of strategic advertising, and the importance of building a strong team. Looking to the future, Joel outlines plans to expand Harvest Hosts' appeal without compromising its unique offerings by incorporating more community-driven features. —Guest Quote"Our users really didn't appreciate the disjointed experience.

Today, we delve into the critical topic of towing capacities, emphasizing the importance of ensuring your truck and trailer are a compatible match. Understanding the math behind your towing setup can enhance safety and performance on the road, preventing potential accidents and mechanical failures. Eric Stark shares insights on storm awareness while staying in RV parks, highlighting the need for preparation and safety measures during unexpected weather events. The episode also features a virtual visit to Cottonwood, Arizona, a hidden gem for RV enthusiasts, and a discussion on Jerome, Arizona, known for its fascinating history and vibrant arts scene. Additionally, listeners will learn about 12-volt heating cable from HeatLine, a product designed to protect plumbing in winter conditions, and tips on saving money by finding DIY alternatives for RV accessories. Towing capacities are a central theme in the RVing world, and Eric Stark unpacks the essential considerations for RV enthusiasts in this insightful episode. He emphasizes that the math must add up when it comes to pairing your truck with the right trailer. Stark warns against the negligence of some dealerships who may prioritize sales over the safety of their customers, leading them to mismatched vehicle-trailer combinations. This discussion is not just theoretical; Stark draws from real-life experiences in his store, where he encounters numerous customers who have overlooked their vehicle's towing limits. He encourages listeners to educate themselves on the various weight ratings and capacities, ensuring they don't end up in potentially dangerous situations on the road. The conversation takes a practical turn as Eric and Alexis discuss storm awareness while staying in RV parks. Alexis motivates RVers to stay informed about weather conditions and suggests creating a storm emergency kit filled with essentials like first aid supplies and bottled water. This segment underscores the importance of preparation rather than panic, equipping listeners with actionable steps to take before hitting the road. The hosts also stress the significance of inspecting RVs for damage post-storm, a crucial step that can prevent larger issues down the line. In addition to the technical discussions, the episode includes a travel segment highlighting Cottonwood and Jerome, Arizona, two charming destinations for RV travelers. Cottonwood emerges as a vibrant hub for culture and outdoor activities, while Jerome offers a glimpse into Arizona's mining history and artistic revival. The interplay between practical RVing advice and the allure of travel encapsulates the spirit of adventure, making this episode a valuable resource for both seasoned RVers and newcomers alike. Takeaways: Understanding your truck's towing capacity is crucial to ensure safe RV travel. Always prepare for unpredictable storms by having a storm emergency kit ready in your RV. Inspect your RV for damage after a storm to prevent future problems from developing. Consider using 12-volt heating tape from Heat Line to protect your plumbing in cold weather.
