Topkey

How do vacation rental businesses scale? Foundations. When Blue Gems MGMT managed just 50 properties in 2023, they rebuilt their entire tech stack with scale in mind. Now they're at 100 and growing. ?? Guesty as a property management system ?? OpenPhone OpenPhone for vendor and owner communications ?? Slack for internal comms ?? Notion as an information database ?? QuickBooks Online for general bookkeeping ?? Topkey for expense management automation. Why was Topkey so critical to this foundational tech stack? 4 reasons:? ? Tagging properties to expenses is now a “3-second process”? ? No “guesswork on which property an expense is for” ? Blue Gems saves “up to 200 hours a month” with Topkey ? Integrations to Guesty and Quickbooks so information flows where you need it Since implementing Topkey, the Blue Gems team has more than doubled the number of properties in their portfolio while slashing the amount of hours spent on expense management. “Even if you only have 10 units now, when you get to 100, you’ll be very grateful that your accounting and finance processes were dialed in from the ground up. Because if you’re building a skyscraper, you start with the foundation — and I think Topkey should be the foundation in really any successful short-term rental management company.” Thank you to Aidan Groll ??, JB Bullock, and Julie Bullock and the Blue Gems MGMT team!

So excited to be here in San Diego for the second annual The 100 Collection? annual partner summit. Travis Wilburn and his team have assembled an amazing group of managers and vendors, truly some of the top operators in our industry. I find these smaller more personable events so much more impactful, you learn a ton, get to actually know people vs. just trying to snag folks and pitch them at your booth, and you come away with a lot more empathy for the day to day challenges and pain points that managers are facing. Thanks 100 collection team and all of the Topkey partners made it here. P.S. couldn’t pass up the chance to take a run on the Embarcadero… as someone who hasn’t spent ton of time here, I can see why people love this town. Absolutely gorgeous.

I’ve been hearing from customers for a while how much of a pain reconciling Amazon Business expenses is. The problem? Unlike most vendors, whenever you make purchases on Amazon, transactions actually hit your credit card when the items are shipped. You might buy 5 items but it’ll send you 3 separate credit card transactions because different items were shipped from different warehouses at different times. If you make a lot of purchases on Amazon for your properties, this becomes a major headache and time-sink to reconcile. With Topkey, you can now plug in your Amazon business account and we’ll create invoices and transactions automatically, with custom receipts. Want to see it in action? Shoot our team a message and we’ll show you how it works!
