The Upmarket Pod crew have their fancy new studio at Gasworks, but it begs the question... how will they pay for it? By launching the Branding Content side of their business, of course! Reed, Mark and Chelsea detail the steps they've been taking to lay the foundation for a successful launch. They even rope their new Upmarket Branding Photographer, Elena Anzaldo into coming on and sharing about her prep for her new role at Upmarket. They also brainstorm how they'll market the new service to the REALTOR clients when they launch it in the fall. In the second half of the show they talk about dealing with difficult clients and Elena shares her wisdom from her time as a REALTOR in regards to how to deal with those difficult agents. They wrap up the show with the ultra-rare Quad Action Items!
