Ep. 77 Harvest Hosts Acquires Boondockers Welcome

Harvest Hosts Acquisition of Boondockers Welcome

In today’s episode, we welcome back Joel Holland, CEO of Harvest Hosts, and now Boondockers Welcome. He was previously on episode 31. Joel tells us how and why he purchased BoonDockers Welcome and what it means for existing customers from both platforms. Joel also talks about the growth of both companies and how he will continue to keep that growth going.

Harvest Hosts

We’ve added about 25 full-time employees just in the last couple of months, and many of them are focused on host recruitment. To continue to succeed, we need to have a really robust network of host locations because getting into campgrounds is hard and frustrating. To me, RVing is a spontaneous activity, you wake up, and whatever your feelings are for that day, you go with it. Now it’s a little bit tough to do because you have to call ahead and make plans. We’re trying to increase these locations that people can stay at, so we will keep hiring and keep focusing on recruiting heavily.” 

We appreciate how candidly Joel talks with us and is completely transparent when talking about why some acquisitions do not go well and how this differs from most, making it a perfect addition to Harvest Hosts. Joel even goes into detail when it comes to marketing and advertising. Joel has great business insight, and we absolutely appreciate him taking the time to come back on the show. We encourage you to check Harvest Hosts and Boondockers Welcome for some truly unique camping opportunities if you haven’t already.
