Today we’d like to introduce you to Chantz Wade.
Hi Chantz, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Being a flight attendant (but 20+ years of IT and web development prior) and seeing how my landlord had a hard time collecting rent (13+ years ago without today’s fancy mobile app payment methods), I was suggesting to him that I could build him a website to automatically collect rent, manage tenants (he has about 60 people in 2 locations) as well as making the website search engine friendly so new tenants could find him; I soon realized that this service could be used by all CrashPad owners. And from this, the genesis or CrashPad411.com.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
I can’t say it’s been a 1st class seat the whole way, some times we’ve had to ride the jump seat on a 12 international flight, ha.
I guess one of the biggest challenges not being able to develop features as fast as we would like.
We do have full-time staff that answers emails and other support questions, but hiring and coordinating developers on a shoe-string budget does not allow us to build out new features as fast as we would like.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Travel Bug Ventures LLC?
I have been in software development for more than 20 years. We have several projects worldwide, between real estate websites, jobs websites and mobile apps. We currently have about 20 mobile apps on the Android and iOS app stores.

What sets us apart from others is we very closely analyze our competitors and try to have a very good understanding of the market space and most of all what the customer’s needs are.
From there, we price our products and services at a fair price and try to provide the absolute best customer service.
In regards to CrashPad411.com, what we are most proud of is the 10s of thousands of connections we have made between CrashPad Seekers and CrashPad owners. It is very self-rewarding to know that you’ve made someone’s life just that much easier. Check out the connections here https://crashpad411.com/emails
As far as future plans for CrashPad411.com, we are currently working on hotel bookings exclusive to airline employees worldwide. Airline crew members travel almost as much as they do for pleasure as they do for work. They are always looking for good hotel deals and we will be able to bring them offers much cheaper than the ‘big dogs’ like Agoda and Booking.com.
Alright, so to wrap up, is there anything else you’d like to share with us?
Stay tuned we have many more property management tools coming in the near future.
