The Upmarket Pod crew have their fancy new studio at Gasworks, but it begs the question... how will they pay for it? By launching the Branding Content side of their business, of course! Reed, Mark and Chelsea detail the steps they've been taking to lay the foundation for a successful launch. They even rope their new Upmarket Branding Photographer, Elena Anzaldo into coming on and sharing about her prep for her new role at Upmarket. They also brainstorm how they'll market the new service to the REALTOR clients when they launch it in the fall. In the second half of the show they talk about dealing with difficult clients and Elena shares her wisdom from her time as a REALTOR in regards to how to deal with those difficult agents. They wrap up the show with the ultra-rare Quad Action Items! Action Items are something small that any listener can do right now to help make their Real Estate Media Business more efficient.

On this episode, Reed speaks with Matthew Anderson @matthewaphoto, a commercial and architecture photographer based in Kansas City, MO. Matthew has successfully transitioned his business from mainly real estate photography to exclusively working with builders/designers/architects etc. HOLD UP. Matthew is not advocating that everyone needs to abandon REP for higher-end commercial work. He really just wants to talk about the fact that every single successful REP is at some point going to be approached by non-realtor clients, so every REP should at least have a cursory knowledge of the commercial side of the business and how to approach shoots practically and financially. He also dishes on his popular YouTube channel and dishes on some controversial takes he has shared in his videos.

The recent $418 million settlement between the National Association of REALTORS and Home Sellers will have broad implications over how REALTORS are compensated. How does this affect Real Estate Photographers and Media providers? Old friend of the show, Sam Benner, Team Leader of the Real Team at EXP Realty, walks us through the settlement and how he sees the landscape changing. Reed and Sam bandy ideas on where we can leverage our skills as media providers to keep our services integral to the listing process and open up new sources of revenue on the buyer side as well.

They of course wrap it up with Action Items! Action Items are something small that any listener can do right now to help make their Real Estate Media Business more efficient.

While Mark is off on his big family trip to Australia, everything falls apart at Upmarket Media. Well, not really, but it just feels that way. In this episode, Reed and pinch-hitting co-host, Producer Chelsea, detail life without COO Mark. They get into just the logistical problems that happen as they have to pick up all the tasks that Mark normally does, but they detail how that has actually benefitted the company. That's all well and good, but, ultimately, they'll be happy when Mark is back!

In the end, they make it through the episode and with just enough energy left to dish out a couple of Action Items! Action Items are something small that any listener can do right now to help make their Real Estate Media Business more efficient.

In addition to a bunch of business updates, this episode features a short discussion with Upmarket Media's #1 individual client, Liz Donnelly (@lizzeedonnelly) of REMAX Gold Coast who was a surprise last-minute drop-in guest! Reed, Mark and Chelsea have a lively chat with her and try to get to the bottom on how Real Estate Media professionals can try to land (and keep) top REALTORS in their area. Then, Liz goes off to sell more real estate and the OG trio talk social media and update listeners on Upmarket Media's slow season projects. This is the last episode before Mark takes off for a few weeks to visit family in Australia, a trip that would have been almost impossible for him to do without a strong team in place at home to run the business while he's gone.

But before he leaves, he does of course drop one final Action Item! Something that any listener can do right now help lay the foundation for scaling their Real Estate Media Business.
