I did a hard, brave thing today! I went LIIIVE!! Ack! It actually wasn't that bad... hopefully! My colleague Taylor and I challenged ourselves in a big way today. She wasn't ready to go live, but she did record a quick video about how important having a team during the real estate process is crucial, and in her example it saved her over $30,000! I hope she posts it soon. I talked about why I love my job, why I love helping, and my experience as a first time home buyer. If you haven't seen it yet, please check out my FB page and give it a quick watch? Completely, totally open to (gentle) honest feedback. Thank you @Patrick Murakami and @Jen Peterson for the inspiration and support. Can say with 100% certainty I wouldn't have done it without this group. It's very vulnerable, but so far people seem to like it. 💙

Jen, Brandon and I have had many conversation around this and its super fascinating to learn about the paid strategies for me as somebody who has focused so heavily on organic. What is organic? This would focus on items such as branding, social media, website, and invitation based strategy. Often times it takes longer with persistence and consistency. Paid strategies would be designed to drive traffic through ads, paid marketing, high end evideo and partnerships. I want to invite you to ask questions about what pertains to you. What have you tried, why are your hesitant to try what you haven't etc. Something to be mindful is that most people are quick to place marketing on the chopping.block when things are slow, but that's when marketing matters the most.

Do you enjoy writing and want to build a following for your personal thoughts? Substack is the right community for you. I once read the description as "Social media for people who have gone through therarapy" And I have to agree. I have enjoyed reading many articles/notes in there. Reddit is quickly becoming the "in know" platform. Overnight gamestop boom....came from reddit. Reddit is a place to create authority and build credibility while also a great place to run ads for your business. This is a hidden gem for growth.
