I plugged a phone number into a search engine and came up with nothing.BTW I found it odd that this website didn't alert me to the presence of these two responses.

Any QI with a national presence can help you out. 

The basic data points as I think of them:---What is your gross rental income per booking---What is your cost per welcome basket---What is the increase in chance of a repeat booking, based on the presence of the welcome basket---Secondarily, what is the change in likelihood of a great review, based on presence of welcome basket     If you have a high gross rental income per booking (say average $5k per booking), and you can offer an incredibly high impact welcome basket at a low cost (say the basket costs $20 but includes dates harvested from the date palm trees located on the property), you will likely find this yields huge returns in repeat bookings and reviews.    

Denver was hit pretty hard due to the presence of telecom - a lot of fiber companies went down the tubes. 

Many who do this business remotely have developed some solid systems in place that alleviate the need for a physical presence, along with some "boots on the ground" as well.

Usually they'll search for you online and if you don't have an online presence it'll be harder to build trust with them.

no presence on line..

Lastly, for this post, I am keenly interested in creating my web presence quickly with an eye on SEO and content as a main lead generator as we are driving for dollars and scraping data from tax delinquency and probate lists.

Doing things that work for you while you're at work (like Craigslist ads, direct mail, networking with agents, and web presence) are great!
