Take Control of Your Vacation Rental Business with Market Movers

If you’ve ever lost sleep over a double booking, dreaded another platform penalty, or felt like Airbnb was running your business… you’re not alone.

I’m Sarah Stahl—marketer, storyteller, and one of the minds behind Alabama’s first luxury glamping resort. Over the last two years, I helped take ReTreet from a dream in the woods to a thriving destination that books out months in advance—93% direct bookings, with little reliance on Airbnb.

Now, I’m showing other short-term rental (STR) owners how to do the same—with systems, strategy, and a little bit of sparkle.

Market Movers Exists So You Can Stop Juggling Platforms and Start Delighting Guests.

 

Managing multiple vacation rentals shouldn’t feel like herding squirrels. But when you’re bouncing between Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and your inbox… it’s chaos.

 

At Market Movers, we help STR pros:

  • Eliminate double bookings and sync calendars with tech that actually works

  • Build repeat guest traffic through smart CRM automations

  • Create marketing that makes guests feel something (and want to come back)

  • Cut the OTA umbilical cord—without sacrificing occupancy

 

👉 Whether you’re running one property or ten, we’ll help you stop reacting and start rebuilding control.

Real Results from the Woods Case Study: ReTreet Resort, Alabama. 

As former Head of Marketing and part of the operational build-out team at ReTreet Resort, I helped implement:

Cross-platform sync to kill overbooking stress


Influencer campaigns with trackable promo codes


CRM-backed discount strategy to convert curious scrollers into booked guests


Community-generated content that created connection, not just clicks

 

It wasn’t magic.

 

It was method.

 

Now, I want to show you how to do it, too.
