W.H. Campbell offers a unique view of the timeshare industry in The Business of Timeshares, as he is neither its friend nor foe, having owned timeshares over the last twenty years with a generally good experience. Before this book, most writers approached timeshares with a decidedly negative slant because it's a common path with an easy story to tell, but one that rarely leads to any real solutions. Mr. Campbell is or has been at one point a (1) multiple timeshare owner, (2) seasoned real estate investor, and (3) credentialed financial advisor. These points of view are examined in turn as he looks at the timeshare business model through different lenses. The Business of Timeshares is the result of a revealing three-year dialogue between Mr. Campbell and timeshare industry senior executives. Through it, he shares his experience and provides new insights and perspectives from his personal observations, shedding light on the very questions the industry chooses not to answer.

After a successful career as a naval officer, Mr. Campbell became intrigued with financial services where he served as a life insurance agent, financial advisor, and advisor in philanthropy. In doing so, he earned the advanced professional credentials held dear by the profession, focusing on retirement income planning, cash flow modeling, and estate distribution through philanthropy. However, his main passion was relatively simple: helping others discover ways to create multiple streams of predictable income in retirement, especially those increasing over time.
Throughout his multiple careers, Campbell invested in real estate, ultimately consolidating holdings in the Washington, DC, area, where he and his wife now live in a private enclave in a wooded setting, minutes from the White House. Leading up to his retirement, he discovered the pleasure of acquiring and enjoying multiple timeshare interests, which led him to a new passion--helping the consuming public peer behind the timeshare curtain, and revealing its secrets.
