NEWPORT NEWS, VA, April 16, 2020 /24-7PressRelease/ -- We'll Wait for You!
"In these times of uncertainty and stress, it's best to be kind," said Bunnie Riedel, President of Virginia & West Virginia Vacation Rentals (VAvacationrentals.com). "That's why I developed the 'We'll Wait for You!" message."
Recognizing that social distancing and stay-at-home orders have caused tremendous stress for people and their families, Riedel early on pivoted her advertising to a message of hope versus a sales message.
"One of my great pleasures in life is planning a trip," said Riedel. "It's the aspirational dreaming that goes on that gives you a lift. This message seems to have struck a chord, our website visits have increased by 600%."
The government guidance on vacation rental homes varies by county in both Virginia & West Virginia. Some counties are still allowing people to rent vacation rentals, recognizing that whole home vacation rentals are far safer than hotels, cruises or renting rooms in people's homes. Other counties are prohibiting the practice.
Added to that is the anxiety people have about being away from home or the economic stress they are experiencing due to unemployment or loss in business. To assist people, Virginia & West Virginia Vacation Rentals (VAvacationrentals.com) has increased its personal interaction with travelers and has offered an extension of time to pay for subscriptions to the homeowners.
"Right now, you will find me up way past midnight answering traveler's questions," said Riedel. "It's been a wonderful interaction with lots of people being very grateful and lots of 'blessings, stay well and safe' going back and forth. Vacation home rentals are a very personal business, now is the time to be patient and thankful."
Vacation home rentals have risen in popularity in recent years. As a perfect getaway for family and friends, vacation rental homes offer comfort and the extra safety people are seeking.
"From my heart to your heart," said Riedel, "Yes, We'll Wait for You!"
