Today on the REAL podcast, we have a special guest, Janie Coffey. She’s an expert in real estate and has been working within this industry for over ten years now! We asked her to join us today because of how much success she’s had using social media apps like Clubhouse. This app allows you to grow your business by connecting with other professionals locally or globally who are also looking towards building their brand online.

To me, clubhouse is a recently-added app, so I’m still getting used to it. Having an expert come on the show will help new users like myself understand how this platform works and find their way around it better! My videographer, who introduced me to ClubHouse, recommended me through his account. I’m excited to hear about Janie’s background in real estate and her take on this new app. Below we have a few questions and answers to help summarize our discussion.

• Q: When did you get into real estate?
• A: After getting into real estate in college, I started working for a commercial developer and contractor on the East Coast. After about four or five years, it was time to move on, so I did house flips with my ex-husband before switching over entirely into residential sales/realization around 15+years ago!
• What about real estate did you fall in love with?
• A: After the last recession, I started doing residential real estate to help people find their homes and start over. It’s been a fantastic experience that has opened up my eyes to how different homes can impact someone’s life positively!
• Q: How did you get started with the Clubhouse app?
• A: I’m always an early adopter of new social media apps, so I was so excited when I heard about this app called Clubhouse. You have to be recommended by someone else who already uses it for you to get access and learn how everything works.
• Q: How are you using it, and what are some of the best practices? How can an agent use this app? Is it worth their time?
• A: I have used this app to build clientele, grow my network and learn about new things. The voice-focused feature of the platform makes it different from other apps like Instagram or TikTok because you get a real connection with people through them, which is hard to find in today’s social media environment. The app is worth everybody’s time

 

Today we heard from Janie about her experience using Clubhouse and how it has helped build connections with people across the world. She shared some tips for getting started. I can see that this app will be big, and now’s the time for you to jump on board. We are thankful for Janie coming on to today’s episode; she shared with us everything we needed to know about using the clubhouse. I’m excited to move forward with this app and see where it takes me and my business.
