Doug Brindley got his start in vacation rentals while helping his father with a small development in Duck, N.C.
“Small business success is fully dependent upon how you work with the people around you,” Brindley explains. “We believe there are three customers in our industry: one is the rental guest, one is the home owner, but when we get these two to understand, we are also their customer and we all win together.”
Brindley Beach Vacations also made the Inc. 5000 List in 2009 (#728) and 2008 (#603).
