Kurt Carlton discusses the inefficiencies of the MLS for a good real estate investment strategy. It's currently hard to find good deals, an MLS doesn't show the scale of vacant housing in the U.S., and some sellers often prefer off-market options that avoid inspections and repairs. We also talk broader market dynamics as today's challenges stem not from distressed sellers, as in 2008, but from an aging housing stock and a severe shortage of new construction. Local real estate investors are best positioned to help restore inventory by rehabilitating vacant homes, offering a scalable solution to a long-term housing crisis.  We discuss... Kurt Carlson has nearly 20 years of experience in real estate, specializing in distressed and value-add residential properties. Unlike the MLS, Kurt's real estate platform targets off-market and undervalued properties not suited for traditional homebuyers. The MLS is inefficient for distressed properties, as typical buyers are discouraged by repairs and inspections. Investors view property issues as opportunities to create value through design, rehab, and operational efficiency. Many realtors prefer listing distressed homes on Kurt's marketplace rather than handling inspections and contractor coordination. Local investors can rehab properties more efficiently and cost-effectively than distant or uninformed sellers. There are roughly 15 million vacant homes in the U.S., presenting massive hidden inventory potential. Despite high housing demand, new construction is at historic lows—fewer homes are being built now than in 1992. Builders face high regulatory costs, land expenses, tariffs, labor shortages, and unpredictable demand cycles. Government programs often inflate demand rather than addressing supply constraints in affordable housing. Local real estate investors are critical to solving the housing crisis by repurposing vacant homes into livable inventory. Supply-demand imbalance persists because builders can't profitably create affordable housing in high-demand areas. There is plenty of capital in the market, but the housing market is not clearing due to mismatches in pricing and affordability. Out of all homes sold in the U.S., one in five is purchased by a real estate investor, the majority of whom buy fewer than 10 homes per year. The perception that Wall Street is dominating the housing market is misleading; most activity is by small business operators. There is strong demand for single-family rentals (SFR), especially for families who don't want to live in apartments. Revitalizing a few homes in neglected neighborhoods can start a chain reaction that attracts more investment and increases values.

Plus, get the inside scoop on tools like Podium's conversational AI and how they can help you create a seamless, relational customer experience that leads to both increased sales and brand loyalty.

Tune in to learn the strategies that will empower you to take control of your success, engage with customers in a more meaningful way, and ultimately stand out in the automotive sales world.   Key Takeaways: ✅ Personal Branding: Develop a unique brand identity within the dealership's brand to stand out and personalize the customer experience. ✅ Strategic Marketing: Utilize tools like Canva, ChatGPT, and social media platforms for strategic and cohesive brand development and customer engagement. ✅ Innovative Customer Experience: Build customer loyalty through personalized post-sale experiences and community engagement initiatives. ✅ Investment: Consider investing personally in marketing strategies if dealership funding is unavailable; transformation starts with self-belief and strategic planning. ✅ Use of AI Tools: Harness AI-driven platforms such as Podium to enhance efficiency in lead conversion and customer engagement.   About Tianna Mick aka T Got Your Keys Tianna Mick (T Got Your Keys): Tianna Mick, famously known as "T Got Your Keys," is a prominent figure in the automotive sales space. With a deep-rooted passion for engaging with customers through social media and digital platforms, she leverages cutting-edge tools and strategies to maximize customer engagement. Tianna is an enthusiastic champion of dealership success, providing valuable insights on sales through various media, including the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast.   Building a Personal Brand in Automotive Sales: Unlocking Success Through Innovation In the high-stakes world of automotive sales, standing out is paramount. As revealed in the dynamic conversation between Sean V. Bradley and Tianna Mick, the path to extraordinary success involves treating car sales like your own business. This article explores how building a personal brand can transform your career, leveraging technology, creativity, and strategic investment. Key Takeaways Developing a personal brand within the dealership's brand is crucial for differentiation and success in automotive sales. Proactively investing in your own marketing efforts can yield significant returns in terms of sales performance. Utilizing artificial intelligence and technology streamlines marketing processes and enhances customer engagement. The Power of Personal Branding in Automotive Sales Creating a personal brand within the automotive industry isn't just a fancy trend—it's a necessity for standing out in a crowded marketplace. Both Sean V. Bradley and Tianna Mick emphasize that most salespeople miss the mark by not establishing their own brand identity. The traditional method of relying solely on dealership leads and foot traffic is becoming obsolete. With technology at our fingertips and the automotive landscape rapidly evolving, sales professionals must differentiate themselves. As Sean notes, "Car sales is like owning your own business." Tianna Mick illustrates this by sharing her journey with the brand "T got your keys," which reflects her personality and values. She highlights the importance of colors, logos, and slogans, as these elements create a lasting impression. "You want to be on the top of mind of all of your customers and all of your prospects' minds," Tianna asserts, underscoring the enduring influence a well-crafted brand can have. Besides personalization, the strategic use of social media amplifies reach and builds credibility. "You pick a brand name that's memorable," Tianna advises, while emphasizing the seamless integration of brand elements across various platforms to maintain consistency and professional growth. Leveraging Technology and AI in Personal Branding Incorporating technology, especially artificial intelligence, is a game-changer for any salesperson looking to elevate their brand. From utilizing AI tools like ChatGPT for creating brand names and logos to integrating them with design platforms like Canva, the possibilities are endless. Sean indicates, "ChatGPT can do this, you know, for free or for practically free," promoting efficiency in establishing your brand. Moreover, AI offers innovative ways to manage customer interactions—Podium's conversational AI being a prime example. For salespeople, AI provides the opportunity to remain engaged with potential customers even during off-hours, ensuring no sales opportunity is missed. As the conversation reveals, AI doesn't just automate processes; it complements your efforts, acting as an omnipresent team member that keeps your operations running smoothly, freeing you to focus on delivering exceptional service and building relationships. The strategy extends to harnessing analytics for targeted marketing. As Tianna experienced, integrating a platform like "Build a Brand" with CRM systems ensures every customer interaction is optimized for success. The data-driven approach not only refines marketing strategies but also enhances service delivery, creating a competitive edge in the bustling automotive market. Investment Strategies for Personal Branding Success Realizing your brand's full potential often requires a financial commitment. Investing in marketing materials and tools is integral to expanding visibility and reinforcing your brand in customers' minds. While discussing budget allocations, Sean shares a proactive approach, encouraging salespeople to approach dealership management for marketing support, emphasizing a shared investment in achieving common goals. "Why don't people lift weights? Because they're heavy," Sean humorously notes, driving the point that investing might seem daunting but is ultimately rewarding. But it's not just about asking for funds; it's about presenting a strategic plan that illustrates potential returns. Tianna supports, "The more car sales I sell you, you get. But I get it," illuminating the mutual benefits of such collaboration. However, even if funding isn't an immediate option, looking at cost-effective methods like custom business cards and creative partnerships with local businesses can still drive significant impact. For sales professionals willing to invest in themselves, leveraging resources smartly can stimulate growth. This could mean setting aside a part of the commission for marketing initiatives or using affordable online platforms for brand promotion. Sean emphasizes that "scared money don't make any money," urging salespeople to be bold and strategic in their financial decisions to ensure exponential growth. By crafting a personal brand, utilizing cutting-edge technology, and committing to strategic investments, automotive salespeople can distinguish themselves from the competition. Tianna and Sean's conversation highlights a pathway to success that combines innovation with personalized service—keys to thriving in today's automotive landscape.     Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

From losing $2 million in four days to building multi-exit companies, Jeremy shares raw lessons about pattern recognition, authenticity, and why most people never make their ideas real. This episode is your backstage pass to understanding how investors really think and how you can get in the room.What you'll learn on this episodeUntapped markets aren't always new sometimes they're old industries approached differently.Most people fail not because of bad ideas, but because of a lack of belief and clarity.Business success starts with solving people's problems, not chasing trends.Pattern recognition is learned from losses, not textbooks.Transparency in leadership attracts capital and people masking your weaknesses repels both.Markets reward disruption especially when others say “that's how it's always been done.”Real growth starts when you stop pretending to be perfect and start owning your gaps.At the heart of this conversation is a simple truth: real business success comes from clearly communicating value and solving real problems. If you're working to sharpen that clarity in your own business, Dan's upcoming book Teach to Sell offers a practical framework to help you attract clients and opportunities by leading with what you know.
