Hey, multifamily leaders and PropTech enthusiasts! Welcome back to another episode of 8 Stories, your go-to podcast for everything happening in the multifamily world.
I'm Sharon Cauthen, here with my co-host Jennifer Carter, and today, we've got a packed agenda that's sure to resonate with everyone in the industry.
We're covering everything from exciting event announcements to deep dives into customer experience and maintenance management.
So, buckle up!
**Blueprint Conference 2024 – The Future of Real Estate Awaits!
We start with exciting news about the upcoming Blueprint Conference, happening September 17-19 in Las Vegas. This is *the* event where all facets of commercial real estate, including multifamily, converge under one roof. Whether in construction, management, or investment, this is the place to be. Plus, we’ve got an exclusive giveaway for our listeners – a ticket worth $1,895! Don’t miss out on this chance to be part of the action. Head over to MultifamilyMediaNetwork.com to enter.
**Optimized Marketing Strategies – Aligning Goals and Telling Your Story**
Next, we dive into an insightful discussion from the Optimized podcast, where Janice Ross and marketing expert Lauren Dewey discuss the importance of goal alignment and storytelling in marketing. It’s not just about hitting numbers—it’s about ensuring everyone’s on the same page, from property managers to owners, and weaving a narrative that resonates with your audience.
**Setting Boundaries – The Importance of Work-Life Balance in Multifamily Leadership
We then tackle a topic close to many hearts: the importance of setting boundaries in the workplace. A viral image of a bride doing budgets on her wedding day sparked a heated discussion. It’s a reminder that, as leaders, we must protect our teams’ personal time. Overworking shouldn’t be the norm, and it's crucial to champion a culture that respects work-life balance.
**Transparency in Pricing – A Shift in Multifamily Operations
Transparency is key, especially when it comes to pricing. We discuss how more multifamily operators embrace open pricing models on their websites, making it easier for potential residents to make informed decisions. It’s about trust, authenticity, and meeting consumer expectations in today’s digital age.
**The Power of Maintenance – Closing the Gap Between Managers and Residents
Finally, we explore the often-overlooked world of maintenance. A recent report revealed a significant gap between what property managers consider important to residents and what matters. Spoiler: Maintenance is way more crucial than many realize. Addressing this can make or break resident satisfaction, so it's time to listen to what our residents say.
