The Story of PMW and Rentvine.
In today's digital landscape, users decide in an instant whether to trust your brand, explore your services, or bounce to a competitor. A well-designed site doesn't just look good; it builds credibility, improves engagement, and increases conversion rates. In fact, 38% of visitors will stop engaging with a site if the layout or visuals are unattractive. That's why we take design seriously—because your business deserves more than just a pretty homepage. It deserves results.
[ The early days ]
Back in 2008, Dave was consulting at his former company, RentClicks (now Rentals.com), when he connected with Adam Field through a mutual friend. At the same time, Jon and Kristen were working full-time at Moog but had a side hustle building websites under the name Bizingo. Jon reached out to Adam for help creating a website for his family's business. That simple request turned into a collaboration, and soon after, Jon and Adam started working on a prototype for a property management accounting software they called Property Stampede. Dave came into the mix to help sell the product, and from that point on, the partnership was born.
[ 2009 ]
Although Property Stampede had promise, it wasn't quite ready for prime time. Still needing to make ends meet, Jon and Dave launched Free Rental Site, aiming to compete with Rentals.com. Due to a non-compete, they built the platform for everywhere except the U.S. Jon, still working full-time at Moog, powered through the build in just about a week, while Kristen volunteered her time and energy to help wherever she could. Dave Martin joined in to help sell FRS. One standout feature was the Craigslist feed, which folks still remember fondly as a clever workaround for the times.
[ The Birth of PMW ]
By 2011, Free Rental Site wasn't taking off the way they hoped. Times were tight. Jon and Dave had to get creative. Dave was initially resistant to going into websites, but he also knew no one in the industry was doing it well. And that was the opening. With setup costs as low as $199 (sometimes free), they started attending small trade shows and found early supporters, including Mike Mengden. Mike saw results almost immediately and became one of PMW's first loyal clients, and is still with us today! Through word-of-mouth and sheer hustle, PMW began to gain momentum.
[ 2012 ]
Things picked up enough that PMW brought on its first official full-time hires: Becky and Jim—both still part of the team today. Kristen was still contributing in a major way and doing it all without a paycheck. Word spread, and more clients came on board, with the early websites running on Adobe's Business Catalyst platform.
[ The Grind (2013 - 2018) ]
PMW was building steam. The company started to scale, hiring staff and refining processes. They continued to gain clients and traction, with their deep understanding of the property management industry setting them apart from the generic website providers in the market.
[ The Spark That Created Rentvine (2018) ]
By 2018, PMW had found its groove. The team had built a strong client base, and Dave and Jon were ready to push the envelope. Clients had been asking for a better management software solution for years. With a seasoned dev team and deep industry knowledge, building one in-house was a no-brainer. Jim and Jon began work on what would become Rentvine, and they consulted industry veterans to get real insights into what property managers needed.
[ 2019 - 2021 ]
Development got serious. Jon and Jim brought on Danny, their first official Rentvine hire, to help build out the platform - who is also still here today! The team expanded steadily, adding engineers, refining features, and reworking code to create a solution that was fast, modern, and efficient. Everything was moving toward a Beta release.
[ 2021 - Beta Launch ]
Rentvine officially launched into Beta with select clients from PMW. Early adopters like Mike Mengden, Marc Cunningham and Melissa Sharone played a key role in shaping the product by testing it in real-world scenarios and offering invaluable feedback. That Beta phase ensured Rentvine was polished and ready for a wider audience.
[ The Sky's the Limit (2021 - Present) ]
Since its public launch in April 2021, Rentvine has grown steadily, and so has PMW. Both companies now operate with dedicated teams and a shared mission. PMW has added new talent and hit new milestones, while Rentvine continues to innovate and push boundaries, gaining traction within the property management community.
[ Why We Are Different ]
