You constantly don't have to chase it. Hi, I'm Mike Webster, Real Estate Marketing Dave. And this podcast is all about building a strong personal brand. People have come to know like trust and most importantly, refer. But remember, it is not their job to remember what you do for a living. It's your job to remind them, Let's get started.00:02:54:03 - 00:03:41:16UnknownWhat's up? Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the episode of the Real Estate Marketing Dude podcast. Folks, you've been following along the last few episodes. What we really been chatting about is what are you going to do in this type of market and the opportunity that really exists. As a number of realtors continue to exit the business. The guest we're going to have today is getting into the business, and I don't think it's going to matter what type of market anybody has.00:03:18:08 - 00:03:41:16UnknownWhen you have a brand like his and I've been I say this for the last fucking eight years, this is very simple. You have to stick out in this business. If you don't stick out, you're just another commodity. And that's why it's so hard to get ahead. But if you look around and you see anybody that's doing anything a little bit different, you'll realize that none of them have a lead generation problem.00:03:38:06 - 00:04:00:21UnknownNone of them have a shortage of opportunities coming across their desk. And but the reality is that so many people will be like, oh my God, I'm so scared to do that. I'm scared to step outside of my comfort zone. I want to be a fucking Stepford wife. You cannot do that in this business. You need to absolutely stick out and you have to be true to yourself.00:03:57:14 - 00:04:17:13UnknownYou don't create your brand, God does, and the ones who embrace it and sing it and scream it from the rooftops, or in this case, dance it, are the ones who typically generate the most amount of business, at least in real estate. So without further ado, and introduce our guest. This is this guy is very interesting. We just met a couple of minutes ago.00:04:16:03 - 00:04:58:06UnknownI'm looking at all his websites right here. He's got his own reality show on. He's a real estate developer, but he's not just any type of developer. He ties in tap dancing into all of his marketing and the like. It's fantastic. So I'm interested to speak with you today. Why don't you go ahead and introduce yourself, tell our guests a little bit about whom you are, what the hell we're going to talk about today.00:04:37:12 - 00:04:58:06UnknownAnd I got all kinds of questions for you after that. Okay. Well, hey, man, I'm glad to be on. Excited to be here. I'm here promoting our show rhythm with views. My name's Atticus Sumner by my stage name. He's my middle name, Atticus Ray. And so that's kind of you see a difference in the name. That's what's going on there.
