    Wearing Every Real Estate Hat to Build a Business with Jason Ostrowsky | Episode 105

    Send us a text Since Sean & Tim are two business owners who did not have a parent in either real estate or insurance, it's always good to get perspective from someone who did have a parent in their chosen industry. Jason Ostrowsky is a successful agent, business owner, and podcaster, but when he was young, he hated real estate ... that sentiment has changed as he's gotten older. In fact, he runs multiple real estate businesses today! It's always good to learn from someone who has worn every hat in their respective industry, so dig in as Sean & Tim extract wisdom and boots-on-the-ground experience from someone who's done it all!

    Send us a text Back to the B&R insurance grind, with Sean firing off some guru-gems aimed at helping homeowners and car owners with their policies. This topic came courtesy of the Nothing doc, and just like all of our other Nothing eps, we believe it will hit home with our watchers and listeners; just as it did for Tim.

    Send us a text Hard to believe, but we did it! 100 episodes of the Bricks & Risk Podcast. Sean was low-energy+ on this one (haha, JK), he was battling a cold; but nevertheless, we both showed up to make another valuable (and humorous) ep. Not many podcasts have come as far as Sean & Tim have, only approximately 5% of all podcasts make it to 100 episodes; but one thing's for sure, we could not have done it without all of you: the listeners and watchers.

    Send us a text Being a good connector in business can be just as good, if not better, than paying for ads, sending postcards, making phone calls, and having client events. Reason being, you're constantly looking out for others, who will in turn start to look out for you. From The Go-Giver to speed-dating, Sean & Tim break down the differences between "connecting" and "networking" and why it pays to shift your mindset!

    Just because Cheldin Barlatt Rumer carries it well, doesn't mean it's not heavy | Episode 98

    Send us a text Absolutely fantastic conversation with a talented, passionate, and highly-credible entrepreneur, Cheldin Barlatt Rumer. Cheldin dives deep into her backstory about what it was like growing up in a household of teachers, lawyers, and scholars, all while she made the career choice to throw parties and make friends on Facebook; haha. She also explains that the very definition of a personal brand is when people speak highly of you when you're not in the room, and that too many people are just "posting and praying" on the socials. Come hang out with Sean & Tim as they extract wisdom from Cheldin. Nuggets abound for our watchers and listeners!
