Your board. In this episode, we dive into the challenges small nonprofits face when trying to activate their boards around fundraising. From fear of asking to a total misunderstanding of what fundraising even is, we're breaking down the myths, sharing real-world tactics, and giving you the mindset shifts that actually work. 

This week, we had Anatoliy Labinskiy, the founder and the CEO of GSM Growth Agency, sharing his rich experience in eCommerce with our audience. Find out how he learned the hard way how to succeed in eCommerce, what are the crucial things to pay attention to, and where most eCommerce business owners make mistakes.

In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, Jerry Kennedy explores how different age groups engage with brands online—and what that means for your chiropractic marketing. Using a recent infographic from NP Digital as a jumping-off point, Jerry breaks down why Gen Z takes longer to follow brands on social media, why Boomers tend to move quicker, and how your marketing strategy should align with your goals, target demographic, and level of urgency. Whether you're doing content marketing, social ads, SEO, or community outreach, understanding your audience's behavior is crucial. Jerry also shares actionable strategies based on patient intent—like how to attract people looking for acute care now versus those slowly building trust over time. Key Takeaways 1. Different Generations = Different Timelines Gen Z needs an average of 11 exposures before following a brand. Millennials and Gen X fall in the 6–7 range—similar to long-standing marketing wisdom. Boomers need only 3 exposures on average. The more content someone consumes, the more desensitized they become—especially Gen Z. 2. Trust and Time in Marketing Most people don't take action the first time they see you unless they're in a crisis or acute pain. Content overload and algorithm filters mean you're competing with everything—not just other chiropractors. Patience is essential in relationship-based marketing. 3. Match Your Marketing to Your Intentions If you need patients today, prioritize: Acute care marketing SEO and Google Ads Networking with professionals If you're building a long-term brand, focus on: Content marketing (blogs, videos, podcasting, community involvement) Authority building (testimonials, reviews, collaborations) Social media presence (but know it takes time!) 4. Tailor Your Tactics by Demographic Older patients: Use Facebook, email, direct mail, print, TV, radio. Younger patients: Use Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, influencer collaborations. 5. Don't Fish in the Wrong Pond Align your: Target audience Marketing platform Message and tone Budget and expectations Actionable Tips for Chiropractors Need patients fast? Prioritize acute care, SEO, and local Google Ads. Targeting Gen Z or Millennials? Use short-form content, influencer partnerships, and be consistent with social media. Want trust over time? Focus on storytelling, authority, and being visible both online and offline. Don't fake it. Be genuine and let your personality come through in your content. Adapt. Stay aware of platform changes and be ready to evolve your strategy. Final Thoughts “Marketing isn't magic—it's a process. And if you're marketing to people who take longer to trust you, you have to be patient, intentional, and consistent. If your expectations and execution don't match, you're just wasting time and money.” Work With Jerry Want help with your website, SEO, or want to get unstuck in your practice?

In this episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, we break down how a thoughtful, strategic fundraising plan can set your organization up for sustainable growth, smarter decisions, and way less chaos. You'll get a practical overview of what goes into a successful plan, how to make it work for your team (no matter the size), and why it's the single best tool to help you stop reacting and start leading. This episode is hosted by Maria Rio, a seasoned fundraising expert with over a decade of experience helping nonprofits grow their impact through clear strategy and effective implementation. Creating a fundraising plan for your nonprofit: 5 key takeaways A great plan is more than a calendar of events. A strong fundraising plan isn't a to-do list; it's your mission's compass. It links your big goals to everyday actions and keeps everyone pointed in the same direction. Start with what you know. Use your current data (donor history, revenue sources, and engagement patterns) as a foundation. You can't look ahead if you don't know where you're starting from. Short-term wins + long-term vision = sustainability. A good plan should help you meet today's goals and build the systems you need for future growth. Your plan helps you say no. When everything feels urgent, it's easy to chase shiny objects. But a plan gives you permission to decline distractions and stay focused on what really matters. Real growth comes from realistic goals. Forget plucked-from-thin-air numbers. Use benchmarks and historical trends to set fundraising targets you can actually achieve, and build momentum from there.

In this Kitchen Side episode of The Long Game Podcast, the Omniscient Digital team dives into Google's new “AI Mode” for search and the broader implications of generative AI across content marketing and SEO. They explore the shift toward conversational, zero-click search experiences, the erosion of attribution data, and how marketers need to adapt in a world where AI Overviews and LLMs are changing how users discover information. With insights on content visibility, LLM optimization, brand mentions, measurement challenges, and even some “gray hat” strategies, this episode captures the tension between innovation and uncertainty in the age of AI-enhanced search.Key TakeawaysGoogle's AI Mode Redefines Search: The new Gemini-powered interface transforms Google into a conversational AI assistant, bypassing traditional search paths.Attribution is Getting Murkier: AI Mode and zero-click searches are making it harder to track SEO performance and justify investment.Brand Mentions Beat Backlinks: LLMs prioritize citations and visibility across platforms more than technical SEO or link-building.SEO is Shifting from Keywords to Visibility: Context, off-site presence, and how content is referenced matter more than keyword density.Marketers Need First-Principles Thinking: Foundational tactics still apply—like voice of customer and content structure—but need reframing for the AI era.Creative “Gray Hat” Tactics Exist: Ideas like editing Wikipedia, acquiring cited domains, or seeding Reddit threads can boost LLM citations.Measurement Will Require New Playbooks: Marketers must blend traditional analytics with self-reported attribution and qualitative feedback.Show LinksConnect with David Khim on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Allie Decker on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterWhat is Kitchen Side?One big benefit of running an agency or working at one is you get to see the “kitchen side” of many different businesses; their revenue, their operations, their automations, and their culture.You understand how things look from the inside and how that differs from the outside.You understand how the sausage is made. As an agency ourselves, we're working both on growing our clients' businesses as well as our own.

Few embody this more than Prof. Alan Arthur Tratner, who helped organize the very first Earth Day in 1970 and has since built a global legacy supporting green entrepreneurs and inventors.Alan's work reminds me that bold action in the face of crisis can spark lasting transformation. In today's episode, he shared the story of rushing to the oil-soaked beaches of Santa Barbara after the catastrophic 1969 spill, an experience that moved him to tears and propelled him into environmental activism. “I broke down, fell on my knees and cried... and then I just said we've got to stop this. We have to find a way to do it,” Alan recalled.That determination led him to found Green2Gold, a unique non-profit incubator that has nurtured over 100,000 inventors, entrepreneurs and more than 300 non-profits focused on environmental and social responsibility. Alan's approach is rooted in the belief that innovation can solve the problems it helped create. “We invented our way into this mess, we could innovate and invent our way out,” he explained.One of the most compelling aspects of Alan's work is his early embrace of investment crowdfunding. He recognized that democratizing access to capital could accelerate the development of climate solutions. “Equity crowdfunding was the democratization of investing. No longer did you have to be wealthy or be in power... anyone in the world, accredited or unaccredited, could invest in an American company,” Alan said.Through Green2Gold's programs, Alan continues to champion breakthrough technologies in renewable energy, sustainable agriculture and disaster recovery. His “Build Back Green” project, for instance, emerged in response to the devastating wildfires in Lahaina and now provides a blueprint for rebuilding communities in sustainable, resilient ways.If you're inspired by Alan's vision or want to learn more about Green2Gold's work, visit green2gold.org. For entrepreneurs and inventors seeking support—or anyone interested in investing in a better world—Alan and Green2Gold are showing what's possible when we put creativity and collective action to work for the planet.tl;dr:Alan Tratner shared his journey from the first Earth Day to launching the Green2Gold impact incubator.He described the critical role of innovation and entrepreneurship in addressing environmental crises worldwide.Alan emphasized the power of equity crowdfunding to democratize investment for green ventures and climate solutions.He highlighted the importance of perseverance, creativity and passion for lasting impact in nonprofit and business work.Alan offered actionable advice for aspiring changemakers to lead with purpose and build sustainable ventures.How to Develop Creative Problem-Solving As a SuperpowerAlan's superpower lies in the fusion of creativity, scientific thinking and practical experience. As he described, “I think that creative spark, that passion, you know, I try to give our entrepreneurs and our nonprofits the same feelings about... inventing in the fields that are going to make a difference.” He credits his background in science, art and design, as well as years of nonprofit leadership and invention, for giving him a “quiver of superpowers” that enable him to help others become problem solvers and critical thinkers.Illustrative Story:Alan shared how he has supported over 315 nonprofits and 100,000 entrepreneurs through Green2Gold by applying his expertise in nonprofit management, invention and funding. For years, he persisted with a wind turbine invention that was ahead of its time, waiting 45 years for the right moment to see it realized. He emphasized that passion and perseverance are crucial. “If you quit, you can't win,” Alan said, reflecting on the decades he devoted to innovations that now have renewed relevance.Actionable Tips for Developing Creative Problem-Solving:Treat your venture or nonprofit as a passionate career, not just a hobbyPut your whole self—brain, energy and opportunities—into your missionEmbrace challenges and persist through setbacks; don't give up if progress is slowSurround yourself with people who share your passion and driveThink entrepreneurially, even in nonprofit work, to build sustainability and legacyBy following Alan's example and advice, you can make creative problem-solving a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

AI Is Already Automating Workflows: From cleaning datasets to automating outreach, AI has everyday use cases when integrated thoughtfully.

Whether you're in a small shop or a national organization, this episode will remind you: you don't need to be perfect to build authentic relationships; you just need to be curious, strategic, and a little bit brave. Major Gift Fundraising – The Highlights: Getting over the fear of asking for major gifts is about proportion: It's not about the amount, it's about alignment and impact. Your value as a nonprofit is real and tangible: You're not “begging" - you're offering a partnership that enables the donor to live out their values. Authenticity builds trust: Donors respond to transparency, not perfection. Fear and perfectionism are the biggest roadblocks: Don't wait for the perfect case for support or phone script - start with what you have. Small shops have big advantages in major gifts: Easier to build personal relationships and offer meaningful donor impact. 

In this episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, Maria unpacks the nonprofit power dynamic we don't talk about enough: what to do when you need to move things forward, but your Executive Director or board just… won't. Whether you're tired of chasing down information, being given confusing direction, or trying to navigate an ineffective board, this episode is your tactical guide to managing up. Maria offers no-fluff strategies to help you communicate clearly, influence with integrity, and protect your time and energy, all while getting things DONE. Nonprofit leadership: Managing your manager – The Highlights: Managing up ≠ manipulation: It's not about playing politics—it's about making sure your work and mission don't get derailed by dysfunction or indecision. Your ED is overwhelmed—help them help you: Understand their priorities and offer solutions, not problems. Frame your asks around impact, not effort. Control the narrative: Don't just ask for tools or decisions—explain how they drive results. Example: “Here's what this CRM enables us to do.” Find your champions: Not all board members or leaders are equal. Identify and amplify your allies to influence change from within. Know when to push, adapt, or leave: These tools work best with leaders who are collaborative. If your ED or board is toxic, no amount of strategy will fix the culture alone. 

Today's episode blends career strategy with financial know-how, because who says you can't build your personal brand and your balance sheet at the same time? Joe Saul-Sehy and OG explore what it really means to shape your professional reputation—from the way you show up in meetings to how you set (and measure) your career goals. Whether you're climbing the ladder, shifting industries, or mentoring others, this episode delivers practical ways to take control of how you're seen and what you stand for at work. Inside this conversation: The “RAVE” model for boosting your brand Why being a cheerleader for your colleagues makes you a standout How appearances and visibility (yes, even your Zoom background) impact your path Real-world tips for growing your influence without bragging—or burning out We also get into the intersection of tech and money: Is AI ready to replace financial advisors? (Short answer: not quite.) What metrics every financially literate person should understand And why your credit card points strategy might need a second look Plus, Doug breaks out a trivia challenge involving coin collecting, and we unravel the very weird truth behind the 1 cent piece. Whether you're building a career, managing your money, or trying to do both with a little more polish—this episode's packed with insights that stick.

Why are short-form videos so essential for modern law firms?In today's rapidly digitalizing world, law firms are presented with the challenge of adapting their marketing strategies to keep up with evolving trends. Among these trends, short-form videos have emerged as a powerful tool not just for engaging potential clients but also for nurturing relationships with existing and past clients. But what makes short-form videos so crucial in the context of digital marketing, particularly for law firms?Short-form videos, popularized by platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, are captivating due to their brevity and ability to convey valuable information quickly. Anthony Pritchard and Paritosh Pareek, co-founders of WP Sprints, suggest that crafting videos for a specific audience member adds value and relatability.Short-form videos are not just a fleeting trend; they are becoming a cornerstone of modern marketing strategies, offering an avenue for law firms to connect deeply with their clients.

In this Kitchen Side episode of The Long Game Podcast, the Omniscient Digital team reflects on their experiences at SPRYNG, a standout B2B marketing conference in Austin. The conversation blends AI experimentation, prompt engineering, and the future of creativity with philosophical reflections on human connection, authenticity, and the soul of marketing. They explore why many AI users are missing the point by chasing “best practices,” and how real breakthroughs come from first-principles thinking and creative risk-taking. The episode also dives into the power of in-person events, emotional resonance, and inefficient—but high-value—tactics like dinners, meetups, and personal storytelling that can't be scaled.Key TakeawaysAI and Prompting from First Principles: Real innovation with AI comes not from templates or best practices, but from individual experimentation and intent.Four Modes of AI Maturity: From microtasker to teammate, AI can scale with how deeply users integrate it into their workflow.The Importance of Human Vibes: Tactical content aside, the SPRYNG conference reminded marketers that human connection and emotion matter more than metrics.Don't Optimize for the Median: Taking every piece of feedback can dilute differentiation—stand firm in your positioning.Community as a Business Superpower: Relationships built at events, meetups, and over meals have long-term impact beyond immediate ROI.Efficient Growth vs. “Inefficient” Magic: Some of the most meaningful, high-ROI activities are hard to measure—like handwritten notes, founder dinners, and late-night talks.Where's the Soul in AI Content?: As AI floods the web, standout content will come from real human stories, creativity, and nuance—not mass automation.Show LinksConnect with David Khim on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Allie Decker on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterWhat is Kitchen Side?One big benefit of running an agency or working at one is you get to see the “kitchen side” of many different businesses; their revenue, their operations, their automations, and their culture.You understand how things look from the inside and how that differs from the outside.You understand how the sausage is made. As an agency ourselves, we're working both on growing our clients' businesses as well as our own.

In this episode of The Long Game Podcast, Alex Birkett interviews Alice Wyatt, a B2B fintech marketing leader with experience at Codat, Bloomreach, and Adyen. Alice shares how her personal journey of building community and maintaining sanity in a fast-paced city like New York connects with her marketing philosophy: agile, people-first, and impact-driven. The conversation explores person-based marketing (PBM), the limits of MQLs, aligning sales and marketing teams, and embracing adaptability in an AI-disrupted world. Alice also reflects on how her approach to building community mirrors how great marketing is done: with empathy, boldness, and a willingness to challenge the status quo.Key TakeawaysFrom ABM to PBM: Moving beyond account-based strategies to person-based marketing creates deeper personalization and stronger alignment with buying behavior.MQLs Are Outdated: Relying on MQLs limits alignment; marketing and sales need shared, outcome-driven goals instead.Adaptability Over Tactics: Successful marketers focus on business outcomes and adapt tactics as priorities shift—agility trumps specialization.AI Is Redefining Roles: AI is reshaping marketing roles, requiring teams to adopt tools while maintaining strategic thinking and creativity.Community as a Superpower: Whether in marketing or life, building and contributing to genuine communities creates long-term value.Hire for Resilience and Curiosity: Non-traditional backgrounds (e.g., comedy, hospitality) often produce standout BDRs with adaptability and EQ.Thought Leadership ≠ Press Releases: Modern thought leadership means leading with perspective, not parroting trends or relying on legacy PR tactics.Show LinksVisit Alice's Forbes Council for Marketing ExpertsConnect with Alice Wyatt on LinkedInConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterPast guests on The Long Game podcast include: Morgan Brown (Shopify), Ryan Law (Animalz), Dan Shure (Evolving SEO), Kaleigh Moore (freelancer), Eric Siu (Clickflow), Peep Laja (CXL), Chelsea Castle (Chili Piper), Tracey Wallace (Klaviyo), Tim Soulo (Ahrefs), Ryan McReady (Reforge), and many more.Some interviews you might enjoy and learn from:Actionable Tips and Secrets to SEO Strategy with Dan Shure (Evolving SEO)Building Competitive Marketing Content with Sam Chapman (Aprimo)How to Build the Right Data Workflow with Blake Burch (Shipyard)Data-Driven Thought Leadership with Alicia Johnston (Sprout Social)Purpose-Driven Leadership & Building a Content Team with Ty Magnin (UiPath)Also, check out our Kitchen Side series where we take you behind the scenes to see how the sausage is made at our agency:Blue Ocean vs Red Ocean SEOShould You Hire Writers or Subject Matter Experts?How Do Growth and Content Overlap?Connect with Omniscient Digital on social:Twitter: @beomniscientLinkedin: Be OmniscientListen to more episodes of The Long Game podcast here: https://beomniscient.com/podcast/

In this Kitchen Side episode of The Long Game Podcast, Alex, David, and Allie continue their in-person discussion in New York City, diving into marketing trends, proprietary data, and the role of differentiation in an AI-dominated landscape. They examine the shifting value of MQLs, how AI is automating SEO and marketing tasks, and why trust and credibility are the new forms of scarcity. The conversation also covers how companies can leverage original data, the intersection of brand and demand, and why marketers must rethink what truly adds value in the era of automation.Key TakeawaysThe Declining Value of MQLs: Traditional lead qualification models are losing effectiveness as buyer behavior evolves.AI and Automation in SEO: AI is automating repetitive SEO and marketing tasks, forcing companies to find new competitive advantages.Trust and Credibility as Scarcity: As automation floods the internet with content, trust and credibility are becoming key differentiators.Proprietary Data as a Competitive Edge: Unique data insights—both structured and unstructured—will be essential for creating valuable, non-generic content.The Future of Content in an AI World: The bar for content quality is rising, making originality and brand-driven storytelling more critical.Brand Affinity vs. Brand Awareness: Companies must focus on deeper brand affinity rather than just broad brand visibility to drive long-term success.Marketing's Role in Differentiation: Success will come from unique perspectives, creative execution, and human-driven insights rather than automated outputs.Show LinksConnect with David Khim on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Allie Decker on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterWhat is Kitchen Side?One big benefit of running an agency or working at one is you get to see the “kitchen side” of many different businesses; their revenue, their operations, their automations, and their culture.You understand how things look from the inside and how that differs from the outside.You understand how the sausage is made. As an agency ourselves, we're working both on growing our clients' businesses as well as our own.

In this Kitchen Side episode of The Long Game Podcast, Alex, David, and Allie record their first in-person conversation in New York City. The episode revolves around insights gathered from dozens of marketing leaders, discussing SEO traffic declines, AI's real impact on marketing, attribution challenges, and the balance between brand and demand generation. The team reflects on how companies are adapting to falling organic traffic, the rise of video SEO, and why traditional top-of-funnel strategies are losing effectiveness. They also explore the importance of customer research, the disconnect between social media conversations and real-world priorities, and how teams can align leadership expectations with evolving marketing realities.Key TakeawaysSEO Traffic Declines: Nearly every marketing leader interviewed reported a drop in organic traffic, leading to internal strategy shifts and leadership concerns.AI in Marketing Operations: While AI is not yet a core part of content creation, teams are leveraging it for keyword research, automation, and efficiency improvements.Video SEO on the Rise: Many companies are prioritizing video content as search engines increasingly favor multimedia formats.Attribution & Leadership Education: As traffic declines, marketers are struggling to shift leadership focus from surface-level metrics (traffic) to real business outcomes (pipeline and revenue).The “Traffic Trap” Problem: Some teams have historically been gold on traffic rather than conversions, forcing a reevaluation of SEO and content strategies.Brand vs. Demand Debate: Companies are reassessing how to balance brand-building efforts with performance-driven demand generation.The Shift in Customer Research & Buying Behavior: Many marketing decisions are now happening outside of trackable systems, making traditional attribution models less reliable.Show LinksConnect with David Khim on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Allie Decker on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterWhat is Kitchen Side?One big benefit of running an agency or working at one is you get to see the “kitchen side” of many different businesses; their revenue, their operations, their automations, and their culture.You understand how things look from the inside and how that differs from the outside.You understand how the sausage is made. As an agency ourselves, we're working both on growing our clients' businesses as well as our own.

In this episode, we are mythbusting ND affirming practice. I hear too often phrases from people who don't quite get what neurodiversity affirming practice is, like ‘If we just let kids do whatever they want and don't extend them, they won't learn essential life skills'. Join me as I discuss what it means to support neurodivergent children and explore how affirming practices don't just allow children to do whatever they want but rather guide them in extending their abilities in a supportive environment. We'll explore different approaches to challenging situations, like swimming lessons for an autistic child, and how a truly affirming approach differs from traditional and passive methods. We'll also discuss the importance of safety, connection, and respect in learning environments, and how meeting these fundamental needs allows children to learn new skills effectively.

In this episode of The Long Game Podcast, Alex Birkett speaks with Erik Johnson, an applied behavioral scientist and founder of Behavioral Strategies. Erik shares insights on human decision-making, habit formation, and the psychological forces influencing our actions. The conversation covers the intention-action gap, AI's impact on attention and productivity, and how behavioral science can optimize both personal and organizational performance. Erik explains why environmental design is crucial for habit formation, how variable rewards in social media and entertainment shape behavior, and why the modern world often works against our best intentions. They also explore practical strategies for overcoming distractions, making better decisions, and using behavioral science to drive business growth.Key TakeawaysThe Intention-Action Gap: Many people struggle to act on what they say they want to do due to psychological and environmental factors.Behavioral Science in Decision-Making: Understanding why we make certain choices helps individuals and businesses design better systems for performance.AI and Habit Formation: AI-driven platforms use behavioral principles to shape user habits, often making focus and productivity more challenging.The Power of Environmental Design: Adjusting surroundings—like removing distractions or changing routines—can significantly improve behavior change success.Variable Rewards and Attention Hijacking: Social media, entertainment, and digital products are optimized to capture attention through gamification and unpredictable rewards.Regulation vs. Personal Responsibility: While individual strategies can help reduce distractions, broader system-level changes may be necessary for long-term solutions.Applying Behavioral Science to Business: Companies can leverage behavioral insights to improve marketing, customer engagement, and decision-making processes.Show LinksVisit Erik Johnson's WebsiteConnect with Erik Johnson on LinkedInConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterSome interviews you might enjoy and learn from:Actionable Tips and Secrets to SEO Strategy with Dan Shure (Evolving SEO)Building Competitive Marketing Content with Sam Chapman (Aprimo)How to Build the Right Data Workflow with Blake Burch (Shipyard)Data-Driven Thought Leadership with Alicia Johnston (Sprout Social)Purpose-Driven Leadership & Building a Content Team with Ty Magnin (UiPath)Also, check out our Kitchen Side series where we take you behind the scenes to see how the sausage is made at our agency:Blue Ocean vs Red Ocean SEOShould You Hire Writers or Subject Matter Experts?How Do Growth and Content Overlap?Connect with Omniscient Digital on social:Twitter: @beomniscientLinkedin: Be OmniscientListen to more episodes of The Long Game podcast here: https://beomniscient.com/podcast/

The Bellevue Montgomery project, led by Scott Kern, CEO of KPS Development Partners, is more than just another housing development. It's a bold attempt to create affordable, community-focused homes while offering residents an opportunity to invest in their neighborhood.The project's design departs from traditional apartment complexes, offering a “cottage court” style with 11 buildings and 23 units built around a shared courtyard. As Scott explained, “The idea is that…you park your car, and as you're walking to your front door, you're passing two-thirds of your neighbors. So it really is about creating a communal space.” This layout fosters a sense of belonging, transforming the development into a hub for community interaction.Bellevue Montgomery also addresses the critical need for affordable workforce housing. The units are priced for renters earning around 80% of the area median income (AMI), with rents for one-bedroom apartments set at $1,200—significantly below market rates. Scott emphasized the importance of this housing category: “It's what we call workforce housing…nurses, students, firemen, teachers, etc.”The project's innovative financing approach also sets it apart. Instead of relying solely on institutional investors, Scott and his team chose to raise capital through regulated investment crowdfunding. Hosted on the Small Change platform, this strategy allows community members to invest with as little as $1,000, democratizing access to real estate opportunities. As Scott put it, “The idea that you can open up a project to the community, the neighborhood, the city, the county…was really appealing to us.”The land itself, a former school site unused for over 50 years, symbolizes the revitalization of neglected spaces. With Bellevue Montgomery, Scott's team is not only filling a physical gap but also stitching together a neighborhood with diverse residents and stakeholders.Scott's vision for Bellevue Montgomery is more than bricks and mortar; it's a blueprint for impact. “We're very keen on doing this within city limits…and providing value from the project we created,” he said. His commitment to community-driven development exemplifies how real estate can address societal needs while creating economic opportunity.Learn more about the Bellevue Montgomery project and how you can support it at Small Change.tl;dr:* Scott Kern's Bellevue Montgomery project transforms neglected land into affordable, community-focused housing in Memphis.* The development prioritizes workforce housing for teachers, nurses, and first responders, filling a crucial gap.* A courtyard design fosters community interaction, promoting a neighborly atmosphere among residents.* Regulated investment crowdfunding enables community members to invest, democratizing access to real estate projects.* Scott's superpower, creating impactful developments, drives his mission to improve cities and lives.How to Develop Creating Impactful Real Estate Projects As a SuperpowerScott's superpower lies in leveraging real estate development to make a meaningful difference in communities. As he shared, “I want to have an impact…by filling up a vacant lot or providing an affordable product…making cities better.” His focus on thoughtful, high-quality projects demonstrates how real estate can transform neighborhoods and improve lives. By ensuring his work aligns with community needs, Scott creates developments that generate pride and lasting value.When forming KPS Development Partners, Scott faced a pivotal decision: pursue easy, profitable retail developments or focus on impactful projects. Rejecting the path of least resistance, he and his partners chose to prioritize community-enhancing developments like Bellevue Montgomery. As Scott explained, “At the end of the day, I didn't want to pour my energy into [projects] when we could be pouring our energy into something that would…have a much more profound impact.”Actionable Tips for Developing This Superpower:* Align your work with values that prioritize community impact over personal gain.* Surround yourself with organizations and individuals committed to doing good.* Participate in nonprofit and community initiatives to stay connected with local needs.* Use your talents to support causes beyond your professional scope.By following Scott's example and advice, you can make creating impactful real estate projects a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.
