When Eric D. Moeller had the vision for Freewyld, it defied many of the prevailing schools of thought in the short-term rental industry. Instead of 'heads in beds', we're focused on crafting unique experiences for every guest. Instead of getting the properties & company launched as cheaply as possible, we've invested heavily in interior design and the brand identity. And instead of catering to the popular "work-cation" or remote work crowd, we're helping people create space to disconnect from technology and reconnect with what matters. (Without going full 'Bear Grylls' and off-grid.) Now, Freewyld needs your help - we've been selected for the shortlist for two exciting industry awards. Eric is nominated in the 'Innovator/Disruptor' category, and Freewyld is nominated in the 'Best Use of Social Media' category. Winners will be decided 50/50 between public vote and the judge's discretion. Take a moment and vote for 'Wyld Mode' and Freewyld in the 2024 Shortyz Awards here: https://lnkd.in/gF4qN_MZ

The whole concept of free will came to me during the height of 2020. Uncertainty when the whole world is chaotic and everyone is connected to Instagram and Twitter and setting crazy videos back and forth. And we just needed a moment to breathe and we jumped in, our pickup truck hit the road and we started staying at all these different Airbnbs and short term rentals. What we found ourselves really seeking were these units, these cabins, these properties that we can disconnect from all the chaotic noise in the world. But what? Found is there's really no middle ground between being connected to what's actually happening and disconnecting from it all. We would get lost in going to these off grid properties and really after a day or two, we're really bored of being off grid and we wanted to plug back in. We wanted to watch Netflix, we wanted to send a tweet, whatever it was, and then we would go to a regular short term rental and realize that even on our vacation we're scrolling that endless scroll and there was no middle ground between that. O We came together to create Free while to give guests the opportunity to disconnect from the chaos of the world, the digital world, and reconnect with what matters to them the most. So one thing that we're innovating inside of Free Wild is not only the movement of wild mode, being able to disconnect from technology and really step into that wild part of us while we're traveling, but also we're creating a piece of technology in all of our properties. When our guests decide they literally will flip the wild switch and enter into wild mode where we as the hospitality providers will fully disconnect Wi-Fi and open up a part of the property that they only have access to while they're in wild mode. Now we kind of give them a little bit of both from the off the grid type of concept to the connected short term rental as well. And what is beautiful is we find that our guests are seeking. To enter into wild mode while they're traveling. And we're getting messages and reviews all the time of, hey, this is the first time that my kids were actually off their devices and we got to go play in the park and whatever else they they wanted to do while they were in wild mode. And now they're bringing that back home and implementing wild mode in their homes. And this is an absolute dream come true of being able to not only impact our guests while they're staying at our properties, but now they're taking those experiences and what we innovated in our properties and they're taking that home. With them and it's impacting their day-to-day and to absolute dream come true, creating Wild Mode as a movement in the travel industry.

Need a break from your end of week rush? You know who to look for! "Where's Wally" or "Where's Waldo" was created by Martin Handford in 1987, and is still published to this day, speaking to the effectiveness of easily recognizable and timeless design. #Branding #Design #GainStreet #GainStreetStrategy #BusinessGrowth #Tech #Design #Rebrand #Rebranding #MascotDesign #DesignAsArt

It starts with the anticipation: Hyperfocus on the importance of telling the whole story. We spoke with Paul Watmough-Halim and Jan Stein, co-founders of the design studio HYPERFOCUS. Founded in 2020, we talked to them about how they ended up together, how they get to the essence of a brand, and how to integrate a brand into product experience from day one. https://lnkd.in/e8PHS4eH WE 🖤 HYPERFOCUS

At JMport Design House, we believe great design looks good and works well. It's like finding the perfect balance. Imagine an online store that's easy to use and has eye-catching pictures of products. This makes shopping fun and simple. But sometimes, we need to choose what to focus on more. For example, an online store might look really nice to attract shoppers, while a medical app needs to be super clear and easy to use to avoid any risks. The main point? To be intentional with your design: Know who will use it and why it’s important. By thinking about what people need, you can create design that is both striking and useful, making users happy. Let's talk design. Let JMport Design help you create experiences that everyone will love! https://lnkd.in/dDMpZbZb
