History:
After a year of driving a full-sized school bus to two dozen cities (story in the Experience section of my profile), I spent a dozen years leading marketing teams inside local television stations in Grand Rapids, Chicago, and Colorado Springs. As boredom with the work crept in, I earned an MBA and did project work for a variety of companies to explore interests and identify transferrable skills. In that process, I connected deeply with a bootstrapped software startup, BombBomb.

When I joined BombBomb, we had fewer than 10 employees. A dozen years later, we'd seen +2,000% team growth, +32,000% customer growth, and +52,000% revenue growth. Along the way, I helped people enjoy clearer communication, human connection, and higher conversion by replacing some of their faceless, typed-out messages with simple videos in emails, text messages, LinkedIn messages, Slack messages, and similar. I've sent more than 15,000 video messages myself and written two (and a half) books on these themes. I also produced and hosted more than 270 episodes of The Customer Experience Podcast for our community.

Having discovered the joy of podcasting, I then joined Follow Up Boss, a deeply customer-centric software company since acquired by Zillow. My primary mission: to explore the real estate team business model by creating a show for, about, and featuring real estate team leaders and operations leaders. Real Estate Team OS now serves thousands of internal and external stakeholders in the team niche.
