FROM HOT DOG STANDS TO HIGH-RISES: SELLING PRESTIGE, EXCLUSIVITY & ACCESS


Listen Later

Today, we’re diving into a man who didn’t just sell luxury real estate—he embedded himself into the world of the ultra-wealthy.

Howard Lorber, Chairman of Douglas Elliman, didn’t just build a real estate empire—he became a gatekeeper to high society. Lorber understood that in the world of luxury real estate, you’re not just selling properties—you’re selling prestige, exclusivity, and access.

In this episode, we’ll explore how Lorber positioned himself not as a salesperson, but as a trusted insider. We’ll break down how he used storytelling—not just as a marketing tool but as a way to weave himself into the very fabric of high-net-worth circles. If you want to learn how to elevate your business by becoming a trusted advisor to the affluent, this is an episode you can’t afford to miss.
