    Episode 155: Simon Whale

    Today's guest is quite possibly the shyest person I have ever had on the podcast and very much goes under the radar in the industry, so it is great to give him centre stage for a change. He's the Founder aka Chief Kerfuffler at Kerfuffle and his skills are listed as morris dancing and beatboxing, but when he's not doing that he's helping agents and suppliers come together to find the best relationships. Think Which?, Trip Advisor, Compare the Market and Groupon all rolled into one B2B platform – that’s the essence of Kerfuffle. As well as this, he is Co-Owner of Relocation Agent Network, director at Agents Giving, and Non Executive Director at Prospector Pro. What he doesn't know about the Prop-Tech industry isn't worth knowing. In this conversation, we discuss networks, reviews, CRM's, AI, NPS, conferences and so much more. This episode will give you a rare professional interview with a guy that really know his onions!
