All right, good morning, good afternoon, good evening. Welcome everybody to a very special little

webinar called Fries with VATS. So this was an idea of Maddie Rifkin, who is on her way to be

joining us. We did a session at the short stay summit in London and it went down really well and we

thought, well, let's get it online so we can record it, pop it on the YouTube, the LinkedIn's

and everywhere so that more people can get access to it.

We have got amazing people that are with me on the stage and we've got people in the

audience which is fantastic and audience members,

those who have taken time out of your day to join us, you are going to have the exclusive

opportunity to ask questions at the end. I'm going to let my esteem panel introduce themselves

in a second, but before we get going, if you look on the right of you, there is a little chat

box. There's a chat box and there's a question and answer. So in the chat, just say hi. Let us know

where you're tuning in from around the world. Let us know more about your business or even

pop in a little web link so you can promote your business, which is all good. And then if you've got any questions when it comes to upsells, leave it in the question

box. I will take that and then I will make sure that we asked our esteem panel as we go.

So let's get started, shall we? We'll start with Laura, then go Mike and then go City. Can you just

keep a couple of minutes just to introduce who you are, where you're from? And then we'll go from

there. Hi, my name's Laura Mews. I'm based in the UK. I have a five-star award-winning holiday

lets in the fabulous peak district. I'm still quite new to the industry. I've only been a host

slash owner for the past three years. But I have learned a lot, a lot. And we're all about it's feeling

when you stay at Musascapes. It's not just head on a bed. And we've created some amazing packages

for guests that have hit national press. And yeah, that's me really in a nutshell.

All right. I guess I'm up.
