The “big story” around town is that the demolition clock has started on the Glass House in Dearborn, as Ford is moving their global HQ three miles down the road to a beautiful new building. Opened in 1956, the last time I visited the Glass House it was a bit long in the tooth for a company the stature of Ford. But, nostalgia is a thing and so many west siders are used to seeing it off of Michigan avenue for decades. In about 18 months, it'll be gone to make way for something new. The new headquarters will be twice the size of the current building and accommodate double the employees, bringing together engineering, design, and technology teams in one collaborative space. According to Ford executives Bill Ford and Jim Farley, the facility will house up to 4,000 employees with a total of 14,000 workers within a 15-minute walk. Plus, they're staying in Dearborn, and the new HQ will be across from the Henry Ford and Greenfield Village, Metro Detroit's largest tourist destination. Devon O'Reilly grew up in Dearborn and is active in the civic, business, and philanthropic communities in the city — joins to talk about why this is such a big deal, what it will help, and what might be ahead for the old Glass House space. In a future episode, we will check in on the history of Ford Headquarters buildings over the years.

Riding in a driverless car might not sound like the ideal place to kick off a marketing chat, but Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray made it work. Between sweating it out in a Waymo and figuring out how to breathe again, they got into why Reddit is one of the most powerful (and underused) platforms for marketers. From spotting trends before they hit the mainstream to actually listening in on real customer pain points, this episode shows why ignoring Reddit means missing big opportunities.ㅤFollow Daniel on LinkedIn and check out The Marketing Millennials podcast for sharp, no-fluff marketing insights.

The US Open may be over but it's been another action packed week on the ATP and WTA Tours. The Davis Cup delivered major shocks as the USA and Australia both crashed out at home, with Czechia and Belgium rising to the occasion. Spain also staged a heroic comeback without Carlos Alcaraz, while drama swirled around Holger Rune both on and off the court - the less about his DMs the better!Meanwhile, 17-year-old Iva Jovic lit up Guadalajara to become the youngest WTA champion of 2025, while France's Tiantsoa Rakotomanga Rajaonah stunned the field in São Paulo — making it the first time in 17 years that two teenagers have lifted trophies in the same week. We debate where Jovic fits among the new wave of teenage stars of Andreeva, Mboko and Maya Joint.We've also got updates on the Billie Jean King Cup Finals as Raducanu opts for a Korean Open wildcard, the Laver Cup and it's “love it, loathe it” format and the latest on Carlos Alcaraz barnet as he shows off yet another haircut that seems to channel his best Roger Federer blonde impression.

Most marketers never think about the iPhone's built-in Mail app, but Jay Schwedelson explains why it just became a secret weapon for boosting open rates. Apple's new “priority” placement is quietly reshaping how emails surface on lock screens, and the right subject line tweaks can get your promotions treated like high-value confirmations. It's a rare, low-effort hack that could give you a serious edge before Apple inevitably shuts the door.ㅤBest Moments:(00:35) Nearly half of all email is read in Apple's Mail app(01:17) Apple pushing “priority” emails straight to lock screens(02:30) Priority placement boosting open rates by 28%(03:17) Subject line hack with “Access approved”(04:17) Words like confirmation, activated, update, renewal trigger Apple's AI(06:00) Why this low-cost tweak is worth A/B testing nowㅤCheck out our 100% FREE + VIRTUAL EVENTS! ->Guru Conference - The World's Largest Virtual EMAIL MARKETING Conference - Nov 6-7!Register here: www.GuruConference.comㅤCheck out Jay's YOUTUBE Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@schwedelsonCheck out Jay's TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@schwedelsonCheck Out Jay's INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jayschwedelson/ㅤMASSIVE thank you to our Sponsor, Marigold!!Email chaos across campuses, branches, or chapters?

Welcome back to Truth, Lies & Work, the award-winning podcast where behavioral science meets workplace culture. Hosted by Chartered Occupational Psychologist Leanne Elliott and business owner Al Elliott, this episode features Tony Cooke, former VP of Human Resources at Adidas, who spent decades proving that HR doesn't have to be the department everyone dreads. Episode Summary Imagine you're the head of an HR team and you get asked to present the team's vision for the future workforce of the largest sportswear company in Europe. But instead of sitting down and putting together the usual dull PowerPoint slide presentation, you instead decide to make a James Bond style movie. You have the MD kidnapped, he's tied up, he's stuffed into a chest and he does multiple takes until he is bruised and battered. That's exactly what happened at Adidas, where Tony Cooke was running HR. His approach was to make HR more human by appealing to people's sense of humor and showing genuine personality. His initiatives were so effective that HQ kept stealing them and rolling them out worldwide, earning his team the nickname "The North Mafia." What We Cover Why HR Became the Villain How HR became the convenient pantomime villain in organizations The Waggish Approach What it means to be "waggish" and take formality out of HR Maverick Initiatives The "Addie Oscars" - cost-neutral recognition that packed halls to the rafters Speed dating for talent across different markets "DIVIN" (Diversity + Inclusion) - making difficult topics fun and engaging The James Bond Movie How Tony's team created a spy movie instead of PowerPoint slides for Workforce 2020 Key Takeaways 1. Collaborate with Senior Stakeholders Early Tony's biggest learning was that even the best ideas need buy-in from decision makers. Build those relationships before you need them, not after. 2. Learn the Business Inside and Out Don't just be an HR person - be a business partner who understands revenue, competitors, and strategic priorities. Tony challenged HR professionals to know their company's turnover. 3. Show Your Human Side Stop being the aloof rule-maker and let people see that you're human with frailties, bad days, and emotions. People warm to authenticity, not perfection. The Results Adidas became known as a talent factory with a conveyor belt of leaders going to senior roles across America, Amsterdam, Germany, and beyond. That's the business impact of making HR genuinely human at one of the world's most recognizable brands.

Most coaches think more clients = more freedom. But 50 clients at $300/month isn't freedom — it's burnout. In this episode, I'll show you why 20 premium clients at $1k–$2k/month is the real path to $20k+ months and the life you actually want.You'll also learn the science of the Reticular Activating System (RAS) — your brain's filter that shapes what you notice — and how holding a clear vision can literally change the opportunities you attract. I'll share how I've used this to attract Morgan, move to Vancouver Island, build our HQ, and now set my sights on land for Reconnected Health.

Celebrating its 80th year of manufacturing some of the finest, fastest, accurate, hardest-hitting, and most innovative firearms and rifle cartridges in the industry, Weatherby, Inc. is not letting the recent downturn in the firearms and ammunition community slow them down. The post-pandemic surge in sales of both firearms and ammunition, as well as recent tariffs and the uncertainty they have spawned, has caused a short-term malaise in firearms and ammunition purchases. But rather than pause, the Skunkworks in Weatherby's Sheridan, Wyoming-based factory and HQ, is in hyperdrive. Mindful of 80 glorious years, retro clothing, ammunition packaging, and new rifles and shotgun offerings are keeping Weatherby in the game…and at its top. Sheep Fever co-host Gray N. Thornton is joined by Weatherby CEO Adam Weatherby and COO Luke Thorkildsen for a deep dive into the industry, it's future, and why this fine brand keeps designing, producing, and offering rifles that epitomize Roy's mantra from decades before – Tomorrow's Rifles Today. From the bold, yet universal 307 platform, fine yet affordable shotguns, to the just-launched 80th Anniversary Mark V, masterfully combining yesterday's classic design with today's materials and innovation, to top secret hints of what's to come, this episode it spot-on for the Weatherby enthusiast, collector, mountain hunter, wing shooter, and firearms aficionado.

The US Open 2025 is over and the Champions have been crowned, Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka! It all happened in New York, from Polish CEO Piotr Szczerek stealing a hat from a child and making global headlines to Naomi Osaka turning up with blinged out Labubu's for every match. We also saw Taylor Townsend make headlines for all the right reasons and Jelena Ostapenko for all the wrong reasons as well as Novak Djokovic making it to four semifinals at majors this year! So as is tradition after two weeks of daily coverage, the Tennis Weekly team reunites in truly global fashion across three time zones (Spain, Greece, and the UK!) for a special US Open wrap-up episode. In this bonus pod, Joel, Kim, and Chris reflect on their own personal highs, lows, and biggest surprises from Flushing Meadows using their Peak, Pit & Pleasant Surprise scorecard. From jaw-dropping comebacks and unexpected breakthroughs and some shocking fashion faux-pas (or should that be haircuts), we cover it all.We also debate have our Tennis weekly awards to dish out for our own Best matches of the tournament, Biggest upsets, Who has the most room for improvement and our 2026 Australian Open “ones to watch”.

Carlos Alcaraz is once again on top of the tennis world after capturing his second US Open title in New York and reclaiming the world number one ranking from Jannik Sinner. In a trilogy final that was delayed by 50 minutes due to President Donald Trump's arrival at Flushing Meadows, Alcaraz produced a dominant display to defeat Sinner 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4. Aside from a brief wobble in the second set, the Spaniard was in command throughout, outhitting his rival by 42 winners to 21 and dropping just one set all tournament. The victory marks Alcaraz's sixth major title at only 22 years of age, putting him ahead of Federer, Djokovic and Nadal at the same stage of their careers. Sinner, meanwhile, struggled with his first serve and could not maintain consistency on what many considered his strongest surface.Join Joel and Chris at Tennis Weekly HQ as they unpack what this result means for both players and the broader Grand Slam picture in 2025. Was this a missed opportunity for Sinner? What was the difference for Alcaraz compared to Wimbledon? And yes, the Drake Curse reared its head again.

Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are set for a blockbuster US Open final, and Joel and Kim are here to break it all down at Tennis Weekly HQ.Alcaraz delivered a statement performance against Novak Djokovic, gaining revenge for his Australian Open defeat earlier this year and scoring his first hard-court victory over the 38-year-old Serbian legend. The Spaniard cruised through in straight sets, not dropping a set all tournament, still finding the time to play golf with Sergio Garcia, and secured his spot in a second US Open final as he eyes both the trophy and a return to World No. 1.Meanwhile, Jannik Sinner battled through the night session, overcoming an inspired at times Felix Auger-Aliassime in four hard-fought sets to notch his 300th career win. Despite a mid-match medical timeout, the Italian found his best tennis in the clutch moments to set up yet another Grand Slam showdown with Alcaraz. For the first time in the Open Era, two players will contest three major finals in the same season — Roland Garros, Wimbledon and now New York. Who will claim the US Open crown and the year-end No. 1 ranking?

Aryna Sabalenka finally ends her Grand Slam drought for the season and edges past Amanda Anisimova in two thrilling sets to retain her US Open title that she captured last year. Join Kim and Chris as they discuss the encounter in Flushing Meadows between two of the biggest ball-strikers in the women's game and whether they thought it lived up to the billing. For Sabalenka, it was not a win without drama having failed to close out the match at the first opportunity but was able to get over the line a nail-shredding tiebreak. How does this win change her outlook on the season and how good must it feel to get revenge on that titanic Wimbledon semi final defeat against the American.For Amanda Anisimova, it was another taste of Grand Slam finals defeat but this time in a completely different manner. From the double bagel dished out at Wimbledon by Iga Swiatek, Anisimova can have her head held high even if falling just short. Join Kim and Chris as they discuss her journey, what needs to happen for her to become a Grand Slam champion and where is it most likely to happen next.

The smallest detail can make or break your engagement, and Jay Schwedelson is fired up about it. Forget the fancy hooks and long copy—the first word of your subject line or post might be the single biggest factor in whether people keep reading or scroll right past.

Crain's education reporter Brandon Dupré talks with host Amy Guth about Northwestern University President Michael Schill's resignation amid blowback from the Trump administration.Plus: Citadel's former Loop office tower HQ goes up for sale, Madison Dearborn buys NFP wealth businesses back from Aon for $2.7 billion, Chicago e-commerce platforms combine to create $3.5 billion firm and the Vatican picks two Chicagoans to open the first restaurant at the Pope's summer estate.
The US Open 2025 Women's final is set and it's a rematch of THAT Wimbledon semifinals that saw Amanda Anisimova upset the world number 1 Aryna Sabalenka in a fabulous contest. Anisimova will be hoping to replicate that victory when she faces off against Sabalenka on Saturday night but will the memory of the 6-0 6-0 Wimbledon final defeat be in the back of her mind going into another final. Anisimova stunned two time former champion Naomi Osaka in the semi-final in three tight sets and 3 hours to advance to her second consecutive grand slam final. Osaka at one point was just one game away from a 3rd final in New York before Anisimova bounced back to power to victory. For Sabalenka the test was arguably even tougher in a rematch of the US Open final last year, she went down a set and in the final set only won 4 points against the Pegula serve and they all happened to be in one game whilst Pegula didn't take her 4 break point chances to level the match. Sabalenka will be seeking her 4th grand slam title and her 1st of the season whilst Anisimova will be seeking a maiden grand slam title.Joel and Chris make their predictions and they also preview the Men's semi-finals where Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic face off in the day session and Jannik Sinner takes on Felix Auger-Aliassime in the night session. They also look ahead to the women's doubles final from Flushing Meadows where Taylor Townsends seeks to cap off a phenomenal tournament for the American!

Building a newsletter audience on a shoestring budget might sound impossible, but Jay Schwedelson shows how $1,000 can actually go a long way if you know where to put it.

It's been an action-packed set of quarterfinals in New York City, with the semifinal line-ups (nearly) now confirmed. In a Wimbledon final repeat, Amanda Anisimova was able to exact revenge on Iga Swiatek (and that double bagel defeat) to make her first US Open semifinal, whilst Felix Auger-Aliassime extended his sparkling run by outlasting Alex De Minaur — who once again fell short of his maiden Grand Slam semifinal. Will he ever get there?We also dive into Novak Djokovic's gritty, guns-out win over Taylor Fritz and ask whether the Serbian can finally make another major final and build on his Australian Open victory against Carlos Alcaraz as the Spaniard marched into the semis without dropping a set, looking as ruthless as ever. Jessica Pegula also brought Barbora Krejcikova back down to earth after her dramatic win over Taylor Townsend, booking a semifinal showdown with World No.1 Aryna Sabalenka, who advanced via walkover following Marketa Vondrousova's withdrawal. Can Pegula keep up the curse of Americans and stop Sabalenka from reaching yet another Grand Slam final?SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

Reddit just quietly leveled up in the ad world, and Jay Schwedelson is fired up about it. After years of sending people off-platform, Reddit now lets advertisers run lead gen ads directly inside the app, which means smoother conversions and cheaper cost per acquisition.

Top Stories for September 2nd Publish Date: September 2nd PRE-ROLL: GWINETT FAIR From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, September 2nd and Happy Birthday to Barry Gibbs I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Troop 506 marks 50 years of Scouting with Court of Honor and Anniversary Celebration Shiloh High student threatened classmate with a gun The Flint River flows to Fernbank Museum this fall All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: Troop 506 marks 50 years of Scouting with Court of Honor and Anniversary Celebration Troop 506 celebrated 50 years of Scouting at Cannon United Methodist Church, where it all began. The Court of Honor was packed—current Scouts, proud families, and alumni spanning decades. Rank advancements, merit badges, and heartfelt stories filled the room. The Troop’s legacy is impressive: 112 Eagle Scouts since 1975. This year, they tackled a “50 Years of Service” challenge—making sandwiches, retiring flags, and collecting food for the community. STORY 2: Shiloh High student threatened classmate with a gun A Shiloh High student was arrested Friday after bringing a gun to school and allegedly threatening a classmate. No one was hurt, but the situation rattled nerves. Principal Cappy Douglass, in a letter to parents, called the incident “unacceptable” and emphasized that weapons on campus are both a policy violation and a crime. This marks the second gun-related incident in Gwinnett schools this year—earlier, a Meadowcreek Elementary student shot a toilet with his mom’s unsecured handgun. Parents are urged: lock up firearms, talk to your kids, and report threats. STORY 3: The Flint River flows to Fernbank Museum this fall A new exhibit, “Lost in Sight: In Search of the Flint’s Headwaters,” opens Saturday at Fernbank Museum, and it’s not your typical nature photography. Virginie Drujon-Kippelen’s work digs—literally and figuratively—into the hidden start of the Flint River, buried beneath the chaos of Hartsfield-Jackson Airport. The photos? Stunning. Twenty vibrant images trace the Flint’s journey from urban trickles to its first public access point, 15 miles downstream. Along the way, it’s polluted, paved over, and nearly forgotten—yet somehow still wild in places. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: MONSTER JAM STORY 4: Kemp to promote Dooley for U.S. Senate before football game Gov. Brian Kemp is throwing his weight behind Derek Dooley’s Senate run, he joined the Republican candidate Saturday at a tailgate before Georgia’s game against Marshall at Sanford Stadium. Football and politics—classic Georgia combo, right? Dooley, son of legendary Bulldogs coach Vince Dooley, officially entered the GOP primary in August. Unlike rivals Buddy Carter and Mike Collins, both Trump-aligned congressmen, Dooley’s a political rookie—no voting record, just a coaching one. Democrats aren’t holding back, calling him a “failed and fired” Tennessee coach. But Kemp’s betting on Bulldog nostalgia and football fandom to give Dooley a boost. STORY 5: Annandale Village opens new Adam C. Pomeranz Program Center Annandale Village just unveiled the Adam C. Pomeranz Program Center, a stunning new space built to empower adults with developmental disabilities and brain injuries. The Aug. 22 celebration was pure joy: 300 guests, food trucks, a live DJ, and performances by the Annandale choir and cheer team. Funded by $6.8 million in donations, the center boasts a teaching kitchen, sensory rooms, an indoor pool, and more—designed to inspire and include everyone. We’ll be right back. Break: MONSTER JAM STORY 6: Gwinnett police arrest four after year-long investigation into suspected crime ring After a year-long investigation, Gwinnett County police have arrested four people tied to a string of car break-ins, thefts, and other crimes that left hundreds of residents reeling. It started back in June 2024, when detectives noticed a pattern: stolen cars being used to break into vehicles across the county. Over 14 months, the group allegedly swiped credit cards, cash, and even firearms, leaving a trail of frustration and fear. On Aug. 5, police—backed by Atlanta SWAT—raided an East Point apartment, recovering stolen guns and arresting four suspects, including 17-year-old Lydericus Broomhead and Kordale Miliam, who’s also facing felony murder charges. STORY 7: New Gwinnett police headquarters on hold because of tariffs Gwinnett County’s plans for a new police headquarters? Stuck in limbo. Why? Tariffs. Yep, those tariffs. County Commission Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson says the uncertainty around costs—thanks to the ongoing trade war—has forced the project to hit pause. The $5.8 million project, meant to replace the outdated 1977 facility, was supposed to break ground last December. Now? No clear timeline. It’s not just the police HQ, either. Other capital projects are feeling the squeeze, leaving Gwinnett to tread carefully in an unpredictable financial climate. We’ll have closing comments after this.

… and breathe! It's been another couple of days of high drama in Round 4 at the US Open in New York City. We kick off with Naomi Osaka's stunning win over Coco Gauff, a straight-sets victory that puts her into her first Slam quarterfinal in more than four years — and marks her first top-five win since 2018. Osaka has always won a Grand Slam every time she has reached the quarterfinals - Joel and Kim discuss can she do it again? We also talk Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic, who both continued their serene progress into the last eight, with the Spaniard looking very much the part on serve (less said about the barnet the better!).Elsewhere, Daniil Medvedev has split with long-time coach Gilles Cervara after eight successful years, sparking questions about where the former World No. 1 goes next. Mouratoglou? Ivanesevic? No one?! Barbora Krejcikova also pulled off the escape of the tournament, saving eight match points to deny Taylor Townsend in a dramatic Arthur Ashe clash that truly showed what Grand Slam champion mentality looks like, whilst a resurgent Felix Auger-Aliassime produced fearless tennis to dismantle Andrey Rublev and book a quarterfinal against the under the radar Alex de Minaur. Plus, we get excited overIga Swiatek's statement win, Marketa Vondrousova's ball bashing upset of Elena Rybakina, and the bizarre “hat-stealing” story - now with an apology from the Polish CEO - that's taken social media by storm!SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

The US Open is heating up in New York and Round 3 brought yet more drama in abundance. Jannik Sinner survived a stern test from Denis Shapovalov but is still searching for his best tennis, while Coco Gauff powered past Magdalena Frech to set up a much-anticipated fourth-round clash with Naomi Osaka. Joel and Chris look at their head to head and decide who will a (presumed) Arthur Ashe night session slot favour most - or could we be in store for some 'car crash tennis' as Joel puts it. Meanwhile, Elena Rybakina once again proved too strong for Emma Raducanu, with Joel and Chris discussing how the Brit can best handle ultra-aggressive opponents.Elsewhere, Taylor Townsend continued her fairytale run with a stunning win over Mirra Andreeva as Jelena Ostapenko published another Instagram story update. Novak Djokovic overcame brief back injury concerns to edge past Cameron Norrie, and Adrian Mannarino advanced in bizarre circumstances whilst on a bathroom break after Ben Shelton's tearful retirement on court. Off-court, fan behavior sparked controversy when a millionaire CEO was caught stealing a signed hat meant for a child from Polish player Kamil Majchrzak, adding fuel to discussions about crowd conduct at the US Open.SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

For many investors, they start their journey by connecting with a real estate agent who doesn't match their values or understand their goals. In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, property management growth expert Jason Hull sits down with Andrew Rhatigan from Rhatigan Real Estate to go deep into the intersection of strategy and psychology and property investment, from navigating relocations and high-value deals to uncovering the mindset shifts that drive success in real estate.

Now, let's get into the show. And today, my guest is Andrew Rhatigan Welcome, Andrew. Andrew Rhatigan (01:24) Pleasure to be here, thanks for having us. Jason Hull (01:26) It's good to have you. So Andrew, we're going to go deep into the intersection of strategy and psychology and property investment from navigating relocations and high value deals to uncovering the mindset shifts that drive success in real estate and business and learn how your innovative approach helps investors save over 80 hours a month and retain up to 10 % more value in their property transactions. All right, so Hopefully that's got some people ears perked up and their attention peaked and they're interested. So Andrew, give us a little background on you and how you kind of got into business and entrepreneurism and started into real estate investing and all of this stuff. Andrew Rhatigan (02:09) So firstly, great to be here. And even from your introduction, it made me want to get involved in what you're doing. So it was a fabulous insight into the value you drive for your clients and potential clientele. So essentially, I suppose I've always had an entrepreneurial spirit and by virtue of life's experience, I've gone from every different avenue. And I suppose the backdrop to my life was that my family are and were in property in a very variety of ways. My late father was a developer and I have other family members that are still in development to this day. And I suppose as I grew up, I was always interested in people and sales, but I ran away a little bit from the property side of things to go forge my own path and explore what I felt, you know, my version of winning was. And I originally studied psychology because at the time I thought it would sound good at a dinner party. I'm happy to say that now at the age of 40, that at the age of 18, guess what? Mic drop. I had no idea what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. So I studied what I thought would sound good at a party. Jason Hull (02:47) explore what I felt my version of winning was. And I originally studied psychology because at the time I thought it would sound good at a dinner party. I'm happy to say that now at the age of 40, that at the age of 18, guess what? Mic drop. I had no idea what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. So I studied what I thought would sound good at a party. Andrew Rhatigan (03:06) But how it benefited me was that I understood more about myself, my inner workings, my drivers. And as I grew, I had different businesses throughout my life, but it all centered around two things, sales and people. And I suppose that was built on a foundation of authenticity, trust, and really seeking to build relationships for the long term rather than transactions. And I was in property, been in property for the last 10 years. And when COVID hit, I saw an opportunity to build a business. Jason Hull (03:07) But how it benefited me was that I understood more about myself, my inner workings, my drivers. And as I grew, I had different businesses throughout my life, but it all centered around two things, sales and people. And I thought that was built on a foundation of authenticity, trust, and really seeking to build relationships for the long term rather than transactions. And I was in property, been in property for the last 10 years. And when COVID hit, I saw an opportunity to build a business based on my Andrew Rhatigan (03:36) based on my personality Jason Hull (03:37) personality type and a niche in the market that was booking the trend of generic real estate agency. So as opposed to simply transacting, charging a simple fee and of rowing in with the rest of the property agency around the world, I decided to create a consultative business that was client first. I advocate for clients and independent. And I suppose I add that layer of Andrew Rhatigan (03:37) type and a niche in the market that was booking the trend of generic real estate agency. So as opposed to simply transacting, charging a simple fee and kind of rowing in with the rest of property agency around the world, I decided to create a consultative business that was client first. I advocate for clients. I'm independent. And I suppose I add that layer of Almost sports management to it, you know, so a big part of what we do is we were a fixer for a lot of our clients that come to us with almost a plastic bag full of a jumbled mixture of receipts at account season. And they come to us with a problem or an idea, and then they ask us to fix it or find a solution. And essentially we've become that advisor or that advocate for people who are looking to either put their money to work or who are looking to source a property in Ireland as a base for an investment or for supporting family or themselves going forward. Jason Hull (04:02) almost sports management to it. know, so a big part of what we do is we're a fixer for a lot of our clients that come to us with almost a plastic bag full of a jumbled mixture of receipts at account season. And they come to us with a problem or an idea and then they ask us to fix it or find a solution. And essentially we've become that advisor or that advocate for people who are looking to either put their money to work or who are looking to source a property in Ireland as a base for an investment or for supporting family or themselves going forward. Well, let's get into the topic at hand then so how How have you sort of applied this psychology background that sounded cool at a party You know to you know what you're doing now with real estate investing Andrew Rhatigan (04:46) I think the best way to describe it is life. You'll often have that you have a different, let's say a room of people at a variety of age brackets and they all have a different view on the world by virtue of what they've experienced, the way they see the world now and obviously their disposition to what they want from life. So I suppose what we do when we're assessing a potential client is instead of me taking Jason's budget and just finding something for the sake of it, I front load the conversation by asking what is it Jason wants from life? Jason Hull (04:58) I've decided. So I suppose what we do... of me taking Jason's budget and just finding something for the sake of it, I front load the conversation by asking what is it Jason wants from life? Andrew Rhatigan (05:15) What is his appetite to risk? What does he think he wants in a property? And what would that mean if we were to work through that hypothetical? And I suppose what I found quite unique is the way we work with people is I'm quite challenging to what people want to do because I'm asking the question before they've had to buy it because Jason Hull (05:15) What is his appetite to risk? What does he think he wants in a property? And what would that mean if we were to work through that hypothetical? And what I found quite unique is the way we work with people is I'm quite challenging what people want to do because I'm asking the question before they're fired. ⁓ Andrew Rhatigan (05:32) that advisory piece needs to come into play. So I'm quite like an parent. So if Jason said, let's say if we looked at it from a car point of view, I need a two door sports car that goes from zero to one hundred. Jason Hull (05:33) advisory piece needs to commit to play. So I'm like a parent. So if Jason said, let's say if we looked at it from a cardboard view, I needed two doors sports card that goes from zero to 100, know, lickety split. I just wanted because I wanted. And I said, okay, but do you have, and I know each other before, do you have dogs? Do you like to play them out a lot? Do you have kids? Do you play golf? Right. asking those questions. Andrew Rhatigan (05:43) You know, lickety split and I just wanted because I want it. And I say, okay, you know, do you have, and I know we chatted before it. Do you have dogs? Do you like to take them out a lot? Do you have kids? Do you play golf? Am I asking those questions? We're then essentially creating a foundation where I've challenged someone before they've spent money at that level to really understand what their motivations are. So property, when we're working on it, it's probably 90 % mental and then 10 % execution. Jason Hull (05:56) We're then essentially creating a foundation for our challenge, some before they spent money at that level to really understand what their motivations are. So property, what we're working on is probably 90 % mental and then 10 % execution. Yeah, got it. So I love that you're kind of asking them what they want out of life first, because I mean, most people's end goal is not to have rental property. There's a reason why behind, you know, these decisions and why they have these things. And if the investment vehicle isn't gonna help them achieve their why or their purpose, then it's probably not a good idea. So, cool. So this is kind of how you start with people. Andrew Rhatigan (06:31) Yeah, people are paying for it right now. Yeah. Jason Hull (06:35) So then what do feel like would be the next step? Andrew Rhatigan (06:38) So essentially when someone has either referred to us or reaches out to us through our various websites or offerings, a big part of what I try and understand is someone's potential profile. So I could have someone that's abroad and let's say they've had a windfall from maybe a bereavement or a financial award. There may be something in that where they maybe need an hour of my time so I can guide them through why they shouldn't be making an investment, especially in the Irish market, because it is quite contentious. Supply is a challenge. Jason Hull (06:55) something especially in the Irish market because it is quite contentious, supply is a challenge. ⁓ Andrew Rhatigan (07:06) And when people are looking at Ireland from an international stage, they probably don't understand the nuances of it. But a big part of what I lean into with people is I will often tell people no, because I'm coming from a place that I want to make them, I want them to go away from meeting us and having that conversation, knowing that we've given the best advice for what they want from life rather than a paint by numbers that everyone can do. Jason Hull (07:09) they probably don't understand the nuances of it. But a big part of what I lean into with people is I will often tell people no, because I'm coming from a place that I want to make them, I want them to go away from meeting us and having that conversation knowing that we've given the best advice for what they want from life rather than a paint by numbers that everyone can do. It's everyone's version. I go back to everyone, version of winning is different. And I originally got it from Gary Vaynerchuk about 10 years ago, which was Andrew Rhatigan (07:29) because everyone's version, I go back to everyone's version of winning is different and I originally got it from Gary Vaynerchuk about 10 years ago, which was one person wants to work a 30 hour work week, they want to play video games at night and take two holidays a year. Another person wants to have every door in an apartment block and they want to build a special purpose vehicle and build for the next three to five generations, let's say. What drives both of those is inherently different. There's only one Jeff Bezos for a reason. Jason Hull (07:38) One person wants to work a 30 hour work week, they want to play video games at night and take two holidays a year. Another person wants to have every door in the apartment block and they want to build a special purpose vehicle and build for the next three to five generations, let's say. What drives both of those is inherently different. There's no jet-flazed off for a reason. So when we're working with people or potentially working with people, we really want to understand what it is they want. So by asking key questions, we understand... Andrew Rhatigan (07:58) So when we're working with people or potentially working with people, we really want to understand what it is they want. So by asking key questions, we understand their background, their motivators, their appetite to risk their life cycle as well. Because if someone makes a lot of money, they maybe want to put it to work rather than leave it in a bank. But if someone is not equipped to have, I suppose, the wherewithal to understand when you're putting money into, into real estate, what the implications are, they maybe need someone to tell them not to do it. Jason Hull (08:06) their background, their motivators, their appetite to risk, their life cycle as well, because if someone makes a lot of money, they maybe want to put it to work rather than leave it in the bank. But if someone is not equipped to have, I suppose, the wherewithal to understand when you're putting money into real estate, what the implications are, they maybe need someone to tell them not to do it, to put the money somewhere safe and to take a percentage of it and maybe go into some sort of a fractional ownership scheme. Andrew Rhatigan (08:26) to put the money somewhere safe and to take a percentage of it and maybe go into some sort of a fractional ownership scheme. So someone who may be able to invest in a larger fund that they can weather the cost and they get a more nominal return in the long term. So I suppose a big part of how I look at it is giving people the advice they need. And then I also have a lot of people who are looking at Ireland now as a place to build a lifestyle. So we have a lot of people who are international looking at Ireland because of the lifestyle, the language and the location. Jason Hull (08:32) So somebody may be able to invest in a larger fund that they could weather the cost and they get more normal return in long term. So I suppose a big part of how I look at it is giving people the advice they need. And then I also have a lot of people who are looking at Ireland now as a place to build a lifestyle. So we have a lot of people who are international looking at Ireland because of the lifestyle, the language and the location. Andrew Rhatigan (08:56) So lifestyle because it's quite a relaxed setting, language because English is the first language Jason Hull (08:56) So lifestyle because it's quite a relaxed selling language because English is the first language. Andrew Rhatigan (09:01) and location being a jumping off point for the rest of Europe. So we see a lot of ⁓ entrepreneurs, expats, musicians, sports people who are looking at Ireland as a base even for themselves from a personal perspective as well. Jason Hull (09:01) and location being a jumping-on point for the rest of Europe. So we see a lot of entrepreneurs, ec-pats, musicians, people who are looking at Ireland as a face, even from themselves from a personal perspective as well. Yeah, I like it. Well, I love what you said about the sales process, that you're not trying to shove them or push them into a particular vehicle. You're trying to figure out what would be best for them. And I think that's really the crux of actual valuable, true selling. It's not about trying to force people or convince people to buy a product or a service or to get into something. It's about figuring out, do they even need what maybe I could offer them? And if they do need it, do they want it from me? Instead of trying to push them. And I think there's been a huge shift I've noticed in the last, I guess since COVID, we're kind of in this post trust era. Everybody got kind of burned by COVID because they realized, hey, we were kind of all duped and tricked to some degree. then we're like, especially in the States here in the U.S., we're figuring out, well, voting sort of been fake and food's been fake and everything politically we're lied to and medical stuff is all this stuff is coming out as fake. And right now it seems like now the stuff talked about on the news is the weather's fake. so. We're like, we feel so manipulated and we feel like we've been lied to in so many ways that trust is at this all time low. The one thing that I've noticed that people trust though, is they trust themselves. And so I think that there's a new model of selling that's really come about as a result of this. If you're trying to be effective and that's being more empathetic, it's allowing them to figure out what they want and what they need rather than just pitching and pushing. like the old school strategies that you've gotten from all these sales gurus and trainers that have existed for the last decade or two. Andrew Rhatigan (10:51) Absolutely. I couldn't agree more. And I think another side of it when you're in property or real estate is you are already a level below general viewpoints on selling because I was in the car business and in the car business, people are anxious. They're wondering if they're going to be sold something that doesn't suit. Are you telling them the truth? And I suppose some great lessons I learned from a wonderful book by Chris Voss called Never Split the Difference. I'm sure anyone in properties read it or listen to it is Jason Hull (11:04) anxious. I'm telling them the truth. And I suppose some great lessons I learned from a wonderful book by Chris Voss called Never Split the Difference. I hear anyone in properties register or listen to it. Andrew Rhatigan (11:17) I really lean into all the fears that people have and I don't use them as a tool to sell them. I use them as a tool to say, look, I know what you're thinking. And, you know, a real estate agent is going to sell you any deal under the sun just to get a deal. So I suppose how I actually booked the trend of that, Jason Hull (11:17) I really lean into all the fears that people have and I don't use them as a tool to sell them. I use them as a tool to say, look, I know what you're thinking. then, know, I read a sad agent just going to sell you any deal under the sun just to get a deal. So I suppose how I actually booked the trend of that. Andrew Rhatigan (11:33) the way we price things and our fee is actually you pay us upfront. And the reason you do that is it turns the volume down on the opinions of others around you. rather than me doing a deal for a potentially high fee, Jason Hull (11:34) the way we price things that our fee is actually you pay us upfront. And the reason you do that is it turns the volume down on the opinions of others around you. So rather than me doing a deal for a potentially high fee and frantically searching for something to shoehorn you into, I understand what your needs are. We price the package up from day one. It's fixed and you either can pay it all upfront or pay it in monthly installments. But two things that does, it enables. Andrew Rhatigan (11:45) and frantically searching for something to shoehorn you into. I understand what your needs are. We price a package from day one. It's fixed and you either can pay it all upfront or pay it in monthly installments. two things that does, it enables and empowers me to say, look, Jason, we found you three deals. I actually don't like two of them because they don't make sense. One here is interesting, but I don't think it's for you just yet. There's no incentive for me not to put you into it. But by paying me upfront, Jason Hull (12:01) Yeah Andrew Rhatigan (12:13) you're paying me to tell you no. And I suppose I'm trying to really lean into that trust factor with people, which is trust me enough to pay me, but then you're going to benefit because I'm going to see you right rather than see you do a deal for the sake of closing a fee and a hope for moving on and you lose my number. No interest. I prefer long-term relationships. And I would prefer, especially in this world now, I mean, if you gave me what 13 hours, I could be sitting in that cool room of yours talking to you. So the world is so small that Jason Hull (12:29) No interest. prefer long-term relationships and I would prefer, especially in this world now, mean, if you gave me what, 13 hours, I could be sitting in that cool room of yours talking to the world is so small, Andrew Rhatigan (12:42) build a relationship for the long term. And it means that it then lives beyond our interaction for other people to be referred to, to enjoy, to get some value from. And I love that. It just goes back to the old school way of building trust. Jason Hull (12:43) but build a relationship for the long-term. And it means that it then lives beyond our interaction for other people to be referred to, to enjoy, to get some value from. And I love that. It just goes back to the old school way of building trust. Yeah, I love it. I think that's a unique model to have them pay you upfront. then you said it turns down the volume around you. Yeah, because the challenge is a lot of people's first starting point, they will go to real estate agents, which they have a very strong incentive to get a commission out of any sort of investment or real estate deal. And they're usually not really well versed in giving you good investment advice anyway, and let alone having an incentive to do so. And so this is why a lot of Smart investors will actually usually start by talking to a property manager first, like what properties, what areas are good to have, what sort of property would be a good investment, because they're actually living in it, you know, they're actually living with that property and managing it, making sure that it can cash flow and is effective. And they're doing this for lots of different properties in that market. And so finding a good property manager is a resource. With the stuff that you do over there in Ireland, property manager's piece of the puzzle. Andrew Rhatigan (13:59) Yes, so I think we're probably in the grand scheme of how Ireland works. We're probably about 15 to 20 years behind the states in a number of ways. So I suppose you're still going to have a mixture of localized property managers who are very, you know, it's a hobbyist, it's a lifestyle piece where they get, let's say up to maybe 80 to a hundred doors and they can manage it themselves with a certain level of admin, but it becomes more of a practical lifestyle piece for them. But I suppose the other side of it is Jason Hull (14:25) I suppose the other side of it is you can then suddenly become a busy fool and you're not able to continue building relationships with people. Servicing clients becomes a challenge. So we're seeing a layer of both technology and I suppose a need for those who want to support larger funds. you have a lot of the investment funds coming in from all over the world and they're looking at Ireland or they're working at Ireland as a good base to be able to buy or build. Andrew Rhatigan (14:27) you can then suddenly become a busy fool and you're not able to continue building relationships with people. ⁓ Servicing clients becomes a challenge. So we are seeing a layer of both technology and I suppose a need for those who want to support larger funds. So you have a lot of the I-Res, know, the investment funds coming in from all over the world and they're looking at Ireland or they were looking at Ireland as a good base to be able to buy or build purpose-built Jason Hull (14:52) purpose-built rental facilities. So when you look at Ireland Andrew Rhatigan (14:52) rental facilities. So when you look at Ireland now, Jason Hull (14:56) now, you are seeing a prominence of people seeing value in having that layered system of a service you can log an issue in, a ⁓ one-tier contact system where you don't have to forget that Mary looks after accounts, but she doesn't look after facilities, and John looks after X and not Y. And I think people are looking Andrew Rhatigan (14:56) you are seeing a prominence of people seeing value in having that layered system of, know, a service you can log an issue with. I suppose a one tier contact system where you don't have to forget that Mary looks after accounts, but she doesn't look after facilities and John looks after X and not Y. And I think people are looking at that as an opportunity to streamline a service for people. But I suppose to be honest with you as well, the challenge for us historically is Jason Hull (15:17) to streamline the service for people. And I suppose to be honest with you as well, the challenge for us historically is those who want property managed, understanding the value involved and having someone, like you said, who does it every day, knows exactly how to deal with people, who understand the nuances of it, and paying them to do so on an ongoing basis so they can outsource that whole process and that support going forward. Got it. All right, we're gonna have a quick word from our sponsor, which is Blanket. So Blanket, Andrew Rhatigan (15:24) those who want property managed understanding the value involved in having someone like you said, who does it every day, who knows exactly how to deal with people, who understands the nuances of it and paying them to do so on an ongoing basis so they can outsource that thought process and that support going forward. Jason Hull (15:47) is a property retention and growth platform that helps property managers stop losing doors and add more revenue and increase the number of properties they manage while your clients with a branded investor dashboard and an off-market marketplace, while your team gets all the tools they need to identify owners at risk of churning and powerful systems to help you add more doors. So check out Blanket, I think it's a really cool platform. So, all right, back to you, Andrew. So Andrew, what? Do you feel like you would like the rest of the United States investment world and property managers to know about Ireland? Like what, what don't we know about it? Cause we're kind of in our bubble here in the unit US a lot of times. So. Andrew Rhatigan (16:28) You know, I think it's probably amazing when you look at the history of Ireland's role in the world. We're quite a new country in the grand scheme of the value we've driven internationally. And I suppose we've got obviously a very long standing historic and positive relationship with the states generally by virtue of, I suppose, our connections with the United States and that history that we have obviously going over there for a long time. But I suppose what's happening now in the last two decades is we have a lot of companies that have really shown their muster. We've had a lot of Jason Hull (16:49) street. But I suppose what's happening now in last two decades is we have a lot of companies that have really shown their muster. We've had a lot of growth from an economic perspective and we have companies and people that are probably making the most money they've ever made and they're going to put it to work. I suppose another challenge or I see challenges as opportunities as well is the Irish market at the moment is in dire need of more supply and we have some stringent planning laws that are going through. Andrew Rhatigan (16:58) growth from an economic perspective. And we have companies and people that are probably making the most money they've ever made and they're looking to put it to work. But I suppose another challenge or I see challenges as opportunities as well is the Irish market at the moment is in in dire need of more supply. And we have some stringent planning laws that are going through. I suppose that they're going through the ringer at the moment because you have developers who want to build and they want to grow. Jason Hull (17:20) I suppose that they're going through the ringer at the moment because you have to have developers who want to build and they want to grow and they've been stymied by a system that it can be clunky and quite slow. But I suppose when I look at Ireland from the perspective of an international platform, it's very easy to overlook everything we have that we don't have extreme heat, don't have extreme... Andrew Rhatigan (17:26) and they've been stymied by a system that it can be clunky and quite slow. But I suppose when I look at Ireland from the perspective of an international platform, it's very easy to overlook everything we have that we don't have extreme heat. We don't have extreme climate events. I suppose when it comes to being central, a lot of companies have chosen Ireland because it's a good HQ for their employee base. You're going to get great talent, but you can also travel around Europe. But when people look at Ireland from an international point of view, we still have so much land. Jason Hull (17:40) I think there is scope in the future to take a longer term view as to what Ireland could become from a development point of view. I think internationally there's a lot of points we could take from Andrew Rhatigan (17:55) that is undeveloped, that I think there is scope in the future to take a longer term view as to what Ireland could become from a development point of view. And I think internationally, there's a lot of points we could take from clever use of building, repurposing commercial developments, repurposing commercial buildings into residential, and also taking a view to exponential growth of these large companies that will need somewhere to grow and adapt and obviously as the population grows. Jason Hull (18:08) Clever use of building, repurposing commercial developments, repurposing commercial buildings into residential and also taking a view to exponential growth of these large companies that will need somewhere to grow and adapt and obviously if the population grows. But I think the opportunity for international people is to take a view as to unique building practices, potentially the next iteration of life at let's say data centers. At the moment they're in flux in Ireland, but I also Andrew Rhatigan (18:23) But I think the opportunity for international people is to take a view as to unique building practices, potentially the next iteration of the likes of let's say data centers. At the moment they're in flux in Ireland, but I also think that people Jason Hull (18:38) think that people can sometimes be overwhelmed by the concept of the perceived challenges and not seek out the unique opportunities. It's often like many business people who set up in the recession would say that was the best time to set up because it gave them the most opportunity. Andrew Rhatigan (18:38) can sometimes be overwhelmed by the concept of the perceived challenges and not seek out the unique opportunities. And it's often like many business people who set up in the recession would say that was the best time to set up because it gave them the most opportunity. I think this unique position Ireland is in is we have all this space, we haven't used it, building is in flux, but I do think if someone came in with a long term view, there is great scope for growth, but it's just about taking an outside eye and having the patience and the determination to see it through. Jason Hull (18:53) I think this unique position our own disease we have all this space we haven't used it building is in flux but I do think if someone came in with a long-term view there is great scope for growth but it's just about taking an outside eye and having the patience and the determination to see it through. Okay, so maybe some listening will have that long-term vision. there's no extreme client, good talent, people speak English there, which is great for us Americans, right? Europe travel hub, there's plenty of undeveloped land, so there's investment opportunities and maybe some potential data centers being built there, stuff like this. So it sounds like there's a lot of good things that could be potentially happening in Ireland. So this is a really dumb random question, but how do the Irish in Ireland view the state celebrating St. Patrick's Day and kiss me I'm Irish and drinking green beer and all that? Andrew Rhatigan (19:48) Well, I can, I can only speak for myself and those I know. I suppose the, one of the things that's very profound as an Irish person is you can overlook everything we have when you're here all the time. So the exact example, let's say someone who lives in New York, Times Square is just there and they just assume it's, always going to be there. The, know, if you're in Paris, the Eiffel Tower, et cetera. When you think of the impact and the relationships Ireland has with so many countries, much like the States, it can actually Jason Hull (20:14) it can actually, it puts manners on you quite quickly when you take a good grant because you realise... Andrew Rhatigan (20:14) It puts manners on you quite quickly when you take it for granted, because you realize that this large country that isn't Ireland, that doesn't have to love us the way it does, or doesn't have to embrace it the way it does, I suppose, engineers a wonderful experience for people to appreciate all things Irish, whether that be the connection to Ireland, the appreciation of having been here on holidays. And I suppose one of the things that is amazing every year is seeing that, I suppose, collection of nations that come together for a day that Jason Hull (20:19) that isn't Ireland, that doesn't have to lovus the way it does, or doesn't have to embrace it the way it does, really, I suppose, engineers a wonderful experience for people to appreciate all the things Irish, whether that be the connection to Ireland, the appreciation of having been here on holidays. And I suppose one of the things that is amazing every year is seeing that, I suppose, collection of nations that come together for a day that oftentimes people might overlook in general terms by virtue of holidays. But I think probably what it stands for is more that Andrew Rhatigan (20:42) Oftentimes people might overlook in general terms by virtue of holidays, but I think it's probably what it stands for is more that camaraderie openness. You know, Ireland has changed a lot in the last number of years. ⁓ And I suppose there is like everything there's always going to be the cheesy factor of people who, you know, do the kiss me I'm Irish and whatever else. But I would rather people embrace what it is we are as a very small country and they appreciate that. Like that's that's a phenomenal thing to me. And the fact that it just continues to grow each year and it's still quite amazing. Jason Hull (20:49) I mean it's a popular thing. We wear green just to celebrate your country. You know, really kind of. So, help me understand this idea of this innovative approach that's saving investors 80 hours a month and retaining 10 % or more value in their property transactions. So, explain this to Andrew Rhatigan (21:32) So oftentimes in Ireland, just to give you a backdrop as to how real estate agency works here, we have a very small number of buying agents. So let's say we're one of only, I would say between three and five buying agents in the entirety of Ireland. There may be more that I'm not aware of, but ones that would be more prominent. And when you look at how people tend to view a real estate transaction, it tends to be very DIY. So people in a residential setting, it's not a standard practice to... Jason Hull (21:54) So people in a residential setting, it's not a standard practice to hire a buying agent and then the buying agent splits the fee with the selling agent. Oftentimes you'd have someone that meets, let's say us, and they could say, oh, I have to pay you upfront before you buy me a house. I could just do it myself, much like some partners. Right. when we're working with people and the structure we've put together is we want people, especially at the level we work with, you know, they're investors, they're C-suite executives, they're ex-paths, high net worth. Andrew Rhatigan (21:58) hire a buying agent and then the buying agent splits the fee with the selling agent. Oftentimes you could have someone that meets, let's say us, and they could say, I have to pay you upfront before you buy me a house. I can just do it myself, much like someone deciding to paint the garden gate. So when we're working with people and the structure we've put together is we want people, especially at the level we work with, know, they're investors, they're C-suite executives, they're ex-paths, high net worth. They're busy building their own lives and their own, ⁓ their own vision of what they want in a different area of life. So essentially by understanding what people want, we then set about and do everything else for them. So we're searching on the ground. We're sending them deals. We're putting together an overview of what life and business and property potential is like on the ground while they're living life. And the idea being that they don't have to spend time communicating with eight or nine different agents to understand an area. Jason Hull (22:23) They're busy building their own lives and their own vision of what they want in a different area of life. So essentially by understanding what people want, we then set it out and do everything else for them. So we're searching on the ground, we're sending them deals, we're putting together an overview of what life and business and property potential is like on the ground or their living life. And the idea being that they don't have to spend time communicating with eight or nine different agents to understand an area. Andrew Rhatigan (22:51) we are the one single point of contact. So when Jason Hull (22:51) We are the one single point of contact. Andrew Rhatigan (22:53) someone signs with us, part of the deal they have to agree to is, and the reason we do it is we become the one person, the one conduit that they can ask a question to. And much like you said with your St. Patrick's Day question, there's no such thing as a dumb question. So when you have one person that's advocating for you, you could say to me, Jason, let's say, I've heard that such and such is this big issue in this part of the country. You ask us the question and then we find you the answer rather than. Jason Hull (22:53) So when someone signs with us, part of the deal they have to agree to is, and the reason we do it is, we become the one person, the one conduit, that they can ask a question to. And much like you said with your St. Patrick's Day question, there's no such thing as a dumb question. So we have one person that's advocating for you. You can say to me, Jason, let's say, I've heard that such and such is this big issue in this part of the country. You ask us the question and then we find you the answer, rather than Andrew Rhatigan (23:19) you asking someone else who maybe doesn't understand your situation, doesn't Jason Hull (23:19) you asking someone else who maybe doesn't understand your situation. Andrew Rhatigan (23:22) care enough to do the due diligence that you require. And a big part of why we do that is it simplifies the process for people. It provides one simple channel of communication, but it also buffers them from the market itself. Because if I'm looking at different deals, I might have 10 or 15 clients at any given time. And the agents who see me, they know me, they see me coming. Jason Hull (23:22) doesn't care enough to do the due diligence that you require. And a big part of why we do that is it simplifies the process for people. It provides one simple channel of communication, but it also buffers them from the market itself. Because if I'm looking at different deals, I might have 10 or 15 clients at any given time. And the agents who see me, they know me, they see me coming, and they know that I'm acting on behalf of someone who, as Bonafides, owns in place. Andrew Rhatigan (23:44) and they know that I'm acting on behalf of someone who has a bona fides funds in place. And it means that you're not going to get marketed to, you're not going to have someone that goes around me to contact Jason to try and do a deal. But it also means that when you're working with us, you've paid us to do what matters most for you and not try and do and deal with any agents. So we don't split fees with agents. No one can incentivize me to make it interesting. And I suppose where that freedom is for other people. And I suppose the education for people internationally is Jason Hull (23:50) And it means that you're not going to get marketed to, you're not going to have someone that goes around me to contact Jason to try and do a deal. But it also means that when you're working with us, you paid us to do what matters most for you and not try and do a deal with any agent. So we don't split fees with agents. No one can incentivize me to make it interesting. And I suppose where that freedom is for other people and I suppose the education for people internationally is they're paying me like a consultant in a surgery in a doctor's suite that's advocating for them. Andrew Rhatigan (24:13) They're paying me like a consultant in a surgery or in a doctor's suite that's advocating for them and not what they can get along the way. who can incentive, you know, make me the best offer and I'll throw them your way. No interest. And then when it comes to savings, what we do is the Irish property market is also very nuanced. So we don't have, you know, seven day closings or escrow accounts that have a binding contract in the space of a couple of days. Ireland's sales process can be very protracted. Jason Hull (24:20) and not what they can get along the way. who can incentive, know, make me the best offer and I'll throw them your way. No interest. And then when it comes to savings, what we do is the Irish property market is also very nuanced. So we don't have, you know, seven day closings or escrow accounts that have a binding contract in the space of a couple of days. Ireland's sales process can be very protracted. Andrew Rhatigan (24:42) So when we're involved and we understand the nuances of a sale, we can save people time and money because the seller has different motivations. One Jason Hull (24:42) So when we're involved and we understand the nuances of the sale, we can save people time and money because the seller has different motivations. Andrew Rhatigan (24:49) person may need time, so they may want less money, but more time in a property. Another person may have financial commitments that they have to adhere to, and we might be able to put something together. Other people, could be a bereavement where they have to offload a part of their property portfolio for tax reasons or for personal reasons. So because we can understand and get to the crux of a sale background quite quickly, Jason Hull (24:50) One person may need time, so they may want less money but more time on the property. Another person may have financial commitments that they have to adhere to and might be able to put something together. Other people it could be a bereavement where they have to offload a part of their property portfolio for tax reasons or personal reasons. So because we can understand and get the crux of the sale background quite quickly, Andrew Rhatigan (25:10) I can save people time by telling them there's no point engaging in this because it's an illegal battle. It's going to take time. Or I might say, look, they're asking X, but they'll take Y. They just want Christmas in the house until we take over the sale. And by understanding that you can find that sweet spot and capitalize and save them the money where it matters most. Jason Hull (25:10) I can save people time by telling them there's no point engaging in this because it's an illegal battle. It's going to take time. Or I might say, look, they're asking X, but they'll take Y. They just want Christmas in the house until they take off the sale. And by understanding that, you can find that sweet spot and capitalize and save them the money where it matters most. Got it. Yeah. So you're this advocate that helps them kind of balance the negotiation between time. money, all the needs of the buyer and the seller and make sure that this is working. You're advocating for them. You're advocating for them. So what else would you like to share before we wrap up? And then how can people connect with you if they're interested in maybe hearing more about investing in this in Ireland market? Andrew Rhatigan (25:57) Yeah, so first and foremost, suppose one of the challenges when you're coming from abroad is when you're not on the ground, it's very difficult to be heard. And I think oftentimes people will be SEO and Googled within an inch of their life, looking at properties or looking at areas that are sold as a particular dream to them via this lovely screen that's curated through carefully utilized marketing platforms. And I suppose when people, if they're looking from the States, one big thing I would say is an agent in Ireland, if you, if you Jason Hull (26:15) that's curated through carefully utilized marketing platforms. Right. Because when people, they're looking from the States, one big thing I would say is an agent in Ireland, if you request details from an ad, isn't going to tell you it's not going to suit your needs. They're just going to sell you what they have for sale. Yeah. But oftentimes, when I encourage anyone when they're assessing Ireland, even if you're only paying a small fee to understand whether this is a market that's going to suit your needs or not, it's important to reach out to someone. It doesn't have to be me. Andrew Rhatigan (26:25) request details from an ad isn't going to tell you it's not going to suit your needs. They're just going to sell you what they have for sale. And oftentimes, when I encourage anyone when they're assessing Ireland, even if you're only paying a small fee to understand whether this is this is a market that's going to suit your needs or not, it's important to reach out to someone. It doesn't have to be me. That will give you a practical on the ground look at what your money is going to do for you and if Ireland is going to suit. And a prime example would be today we had an American client Jason Hull (26:45) that would give you a practical on the ground look at what your money is going to do for you and if Ireland is going to suit and a prime example would be today we had an American client Andrew Rhatigan (26:54) very successful and they went through an ad to find a property in a certain part of Ireland that was absolutely not going to suit their needs. And it was a very high value property, all things considered. And by spending time with us, we showed them what they could have without skin in the game. And Jason Hull (26:55) very successful and they went through an ad to find a property in a certain part of Ireland that was absolutely not going to suit their needs and was very high value property all considered and by spending time with us we showed them what they could have without getting the game Andrew Rhatigan (27:10) we completely changed the narrative. So they would have been buying in a very industrial area. It would have been very imposing. They wouldn't have been getting what Ireland is all about. And then Jason Hull (27:11) and we completely changed the narrative. So they would have been buying in a very industrial area. It would have been very imposing. They wouldn't have been getting what Ireland is all about. Wow. Andrew Rhatigan (27:20) by showing them this and giving them the time they needed to kind of transition almost like, you know what, if you're up a mountain to acclimatize, we've now agreed them a property as of today that saved them 450,000 on their budget and has totally flipped the script on where they thought they wanted to buy. So instead of buying industrial, they're Jason Hull (27:21) By showing them this and giving them the time they needed to kind of transition, almost like, you know what, if you're going up a mountain to acclimatise, we've now agreed them a property as of today that saved them 450,000 on their budget and is totally fit to script on where they thought they wanted to buy. So instead of buying industrial. Andrew Rhatigan (27:39) buying by the ocean. And instead of buying something that's brand new, that looks great today, they're buying something that's got great pedigree. And instead of just being sold something for the sake of transacting, Jason Hull (27:39) they're buying by the ocean and instead of buying something brand new that looks great today, they're buying something that's got great pedigree. And instead of just being sold something for the sake of transacting, Andrew Rhatigan (27:48) they've been guided to something that's going to suit their risk tolerance, their life now, and also the future if they chose to rent it in time to come. So that's just a simple example of what we do regularly. Jason Hull (27:49) they've been guided to something that's gonna suit their risk tolerance, their life now, and also the future if they chose to invest in the time to come. So that's just a simple example of what we do regularly. Nice, yeah. So instead of being manipulated by marketing, thinking you're buying some beautiful Irish property in Ireland, and you end up in an industrial area with something shiny and new that maybe isn't going to really suit your needs, then it'd be better to have a conversation with somebody that's real solid boots on the ground that are going to take a look at things and help you figure out what's actually going to help you reach your goals. Exactly. And people tend to reach out to Andrew Rhatigan (28:23) Exactly. And people tend to reach out to me through either RRE.ie that's our website. And we also, I'm very active on LinkedIn. So anyone that wants to connect or ask questions or book a zoom or a virtual coffee is more than happy to do so. I suppose a big part of what I love about my business and it's, it's, suppose as an entrepreneur as well, as much like meeting people like you is I love interesting conversation and meeting people with dynamic outlooks and personalities. And that kind of layers in what I do in property. But first and foremost, I love meeting people as well. Jason Hull (28:28) and we'll. It's, I suppose it's. Fantastic. What's ⁓ the website again? Andrew Rhatigan (28:54) It's RRE.ie so R if I'm putting an American twang on it, it would be RRE.ie. Jason Hull (28:58) Yeah. R R E dot I E.

Andrew Rhatigan (29:12) No, it was IE. We also have Rhatiganrealestate.com, but RRE would be the original website that we had. Jason Hull (29:16) Okay. Got it. Okay. All right. Thank you. All right.
