4‑Week Guide

In today’s rental and vacation property market, reviews are everything.

For many property managers, the biggest barrier to using new technology isn’t the software itself — it’s the transition.

There’s always the same concern:
“When will we find the time to change how we work?”

The answer is simple: during quieter periods.

GetAbsolutely is designed to be implemented gradually, without disrupting day‑to‑day operations. In fact, a four‑week transition plan is often all that’s needed to cut down wasted admin time and refocus staff on the parts of the business that truly need human attention.

Here’s how property managers can use a structured four‑week approach to make the change smoothly.

The first week isn’t about changing behavior — it’s about visibility.

This is the time to:

• Identify where issues are currently reported
• List all communication channels being used
• Understand how much time is spent chasing updates
• Note where things regularly fall through the cracks

Get Absolutely becomes the single place where issues will live, but week one is about understanding what you’re replacing.

This clarity alone often highlights how much admin time is being lost.

In week two, Get Absolutely is introduced as the central hub — not an extra task.

Property managers can:

• Begin logging new issues into Get Absolutely
• Keep all conversations attached to each issue
• Reduce internal messages by using one shared thread
• Start building a clean, searchable issue history

At this stage, teams quickly see how much time is saved by avoiding duplicated messages and manual updates.

With the system in place, week three focuses on people.

This is when:

• Cleaners are shown how to log issues on site
• Maintenance staff update jobs directly
• Managers stop acting as messengers between parties

Staff no longer need to ask where something stands — they can see it.

This shift alone removes hours of unnecessary admin every week.

By week four, the operational benefits are clear.

With GetAbsolutely handling issue tracking and communication:

• Managers spend less time chasing
• Teams deal with fewer repeat problems
• Owners receive clearer updates
• Staff can focus on guest experience, inspections, and growth

Technology handles the admin. People handle the judgement.

This four‑week transition doesn’t just improve efficiency — it changes how the business operates.

Instead of reacting:

• Issues are tracked properly
• Patterns are identified
• Fixes become permanent
• Teams work with clarity

And when peak season arrives, the business scales without chaos.

Modernizing a property management business doesn’t require a huge overhaul.

It requires a clear plan, the right timing, and the right tool.

Get Absolutely provides all three.

Use the quiet season to transition.

Use technology to remove wasted admin.

And let your team focus on the work that actually needs them.
