I had a great time talking with Rebecca Smith and Brent Gratton from WPM Real Estate. Rebecca and Brent represent the Marketing & Leasing function at WPM where they plan a major role in ensuring the success of the 25,000 unit (and growing!) portfolio.

This conversation was amazing.

We talked through the modern leasing tactics and strategies that they use to ensure success in their portfolio - we even discussed the recent opportunity they had to lease up a new property in a brand new market for them in Virginia.

In this episode you'll hear about sales process, an incredible leasing academy, the balance that WPM finds in investing in technology while being thoughtful before they jump in, what sets WPM apart, and many other fun topics.

Moshe Crane is a Director of Marketing & Leasing in the Multifamily industry who is building an exceptional personal brand through LinkedIn.

Being relatively new to Multifamily it was fun to discuss his role and perspective on the broad topics of Marketing and Leasing. 

In addition, we discussed how important it is to align yourself towards work that gives you energy and some things that we can learn about building community by studying companies like Peloton.

This was a fun conversation - enjoy!

I had an awesome time talking with Mitch Fanning, the VP of Marketing at Rentsync. 

This conversation was broad but super energizing as we covered topics involving rebranding a B2B software company, marketing and leasing strategy, along with lessons that we can all apply from big companies like SalesForce and Hubspot.

I had an amazing conversation with Mike Whaling, the president and founder of 30 lines, a marketing agency focused on Multifamily.

I consider Mike to be one of the biggest names in our industry and certainly an authority on all things Digital Marketing. As such, we had a phenomenal conversation that will almost certainly warrant a 2nd round!

In this episode, you'll hear about the evolution of marketing, how marketing/leasing can better partner to improve the prospect to resident experience, and some additional low hanging fruit in Multifamily.

Jonathan Ehrlich has had a fast-paced career in Multifamily. Spending time on the technology side and now leading Lightning Capital where they own and operate a technology first multifamily portfolio.

What first caught my attention about Jonathan was a series of posts he wrote and published on LinkedIn called 'The Multifamily Tech Stack.' His perspective is clear but also very strong and it was a blast digging into his takes on the following:

- How owners and operators can drive the right degree of technology adoption onsite
- How to make the most of the investments you've made in technology
- How to utilize technology as an amenity to positively impact your sales and marketing
