    From Good to Great: Transforming Renewal Conversations

    From Good to Great: Transforming Renewal Conversations

    Regardless of where we are or what the economy is doing, renewal conversations with your residents can be challenging. But renewals are so important because it is easier to keep the residents you already have living at your community than to go after new ones. But how do we keep them?

    In this episode, we delve into the crucial topic of renewal conversations in multifamily housing and uncover practical strategies to make every day a renewal opportunity. From personalized touchpoints to surprising and delighting our residents, we'll learn how to create a meaningful connection with them throughout their stay. The biggest key: building equity.

    Let's transform the way we approach renewals and make each conversation a positive and enriching experience.

    #66 - Two Ways to "Clone" Yourself and Get More Done

    #66 - Two Ways to "Clone" Yourself and Get More Done

    I wish there were two of me so I could get more done!

    Why can’t I be at two places at once?

    There isn’t enough of me to go around!
    If you’re an entrepreneur running your own business or a property manager running a business like it’s your own, you’ve likely thought this a time or two. Am I right?

    I promise I’m not spying on you. I’ve just been in your shoes.

    When I first started as a property manager I felt constantly pulled in a million directions. I would often get to the office early and leave after everyone else left so I could get my work done when it was quiet. Sometimes I wanted to hide from my team and my residents. (Shout out to anyone who has ever parked their car away from the office so residents don’t know you are there!)

    Many years later when I jumped into the world of entrepreneurship, I felt a familiar feeling. Overwhelm. And again I found myself wishing for two of me. There just weren’t enough hours in the day and I had the mistaken view that if I wanted anything done right, I’d have to do it myself.

    After 10+ years as a property manager and 11+ years as an entrepreneur, I’m sad to say I haven’t actually figured out how to clone myself, but I have figured out TWO strategies that work even better. Today I want to share them with you.

    Grab your favorite coffee or tea and let’s hang out.

    Effortless Social Media: Scaling Strategies for Success

    Effortless Social Media: Scaling Strategies for Success

    If you're a property manager feeling overwhelmed by managing social media alongside your existing responsibilities, listen in as we explore how to make social media doable and easy by laying a solid foundation for your strategy and building scalable systems for consistent content creation and engagement.

    On this episode of Marketing Home, Marketing You, we dive into all things social media and take a glimpse at the Sprout Marketing playbook to execute your apartment social media strategy. In this workshop, we’ll start by laying the foundation for your social media strategy, a solid foundation.

    Then, we’ll explore how to build scalable systems that can be implemented even when life throws everything at you. These systems will allow for consistent content creation and engagement, ensuring it's not dependent on a single person and can adapt to varying seasons and circumstances throughout the year. As the saying goes, sometimes you need to slow down to speed up, and in the fast-paced world of property management, that can be a daunting task. But fear not, we're here to guide you.

    Lastly, we’ll guide you in planning seven days of social media content, empowering you to feel prepared for the week ahead and take that task off your to-do list.

    Sprout's Simply Social Membership provides you with daily captions an graphics for 365 days out of the year. Learn more at watchyourbusinesssprout.com/simply-social-membership
