After more than two years away, I’m back with a brand-new season of That Real Estate Tech Guy! In this first episode, I set the stage for what’s to come and dive into core lessons from my new book, Click Call Scale: The Real Estate Investor’s Ultimate Phone System Playbook.

We explore why the phone is still the most powerful tool for real estate investors, why clean data is more than just an efficiency issue, and how proper training and performance management can turn your acquisitions team into a revenue-driving machine. Along the way, I share stories, cautionary examples, and proven strategies you can implement today.
