Building an industry-leading business never stops, and it all starts with how you're developing yourself. If you've listened to the show this year, you've heard Harmony Brown of Greenworks Inspections often. But instead of co-hosting for this episode... she's fresh off the heels of delivering the Keynote address at Inspection Fuel 2024. She's one of the easiest people to talk to, and every conversation is entrepreneurial gold! So listen, subscribe, share... all the things.

Daniel Burkhead is no stranger to the home inspection industry, or to entrepreneurship... but even "seasoned" (not old) dogs can learn new tricks, and Dan has grown his social media content presence dramatically in just a couple short years, and his business has benefited as a result! The key? Just being consistent... and being himself. As for you yourself? You should like the episode and subscribe to the channel.

It's easy to get locked into scaling your business within the confines of your industry. The problem is hitting a ceiling and not knowing what to do next. Especially in the home inspection industry, it's common for companies to find themselves doing the same things with a different name. So, how do you diversify? You look outside your industry in search of opportunities that parallel what you're already doing, which utilize the things you're already learning. That's how Kal Patel has found success in everything from home inspection franchising, to hospitality, to urgent care health... and now social media marketing! He's also a connoisseur of excellent bourbon. Listen, learn, apply, and grow! Oh and subscribe to the show ;)

It's conference season! And that means I get to hang out with some of the most awesome people in the industry, like Matt Brading ( @texas.edge.inspect  ) and Chris Murphy ( @AActionHomeInspectionHouston  )! If you're trying to level up your video marketing and online presence, these are two guys you want to meet! This is just one of many amazing interviews with industry leading home inspectors recorded live on site at Inspection Fuel 2024 in Dallas, so stay tuned and subscribe for more!

WE LET A COMPETITOR ON OUR SHOW! Have you ever noticed how CVS and Walgreens are often right across from each other? That's a perfect example of why competition is good for everybody. And the home inspection industry is no different! No company owns the market when it comes to inspection software and services... but we ALL love seeing each other innovate, because it drives us to do the same. Inspectors should love that too, because that equals better tools in their hands... which leads to better run businesses. So, the trickledown effect of competition just results in a massive benefit for EVERYbody.

No! This is not the creative alternative descriptor for a pyramid scheme or multi-level marketing "business".... This is literally what home inspectors need to be doing in the days/weeks/years ahead in order to grow their network and book of business following the new NAR agreement. Buyer's agents have long been the gatekeeper to the customer. But with the latest shakeup, inspectors need to be proactive in using modern marketing solutions to put themselves directly in front of the buyer. Thanks to my co-host, Harmony Brown, and our guest today, Isaac Peck of OREP and Working RE magazine!
