Business is good. I had a bit of a lull and enjoyed it, as my last settlement was the end of June. It gave me time to build my membership, podcast, and relationships with clients. I have a couple listings coming up and six or seven active buyers. Some have been putting in offers and we've just missed a couple times.
As I was thinking about this episode, I thought back to last year when I shared my October business update with you guys. I was happy with where my business had gone. I think at that point, I’d doubled my income. That had been the goal. And then from October to the end of December, I made enough money that I then had tripled the income from the year prior.
The membership continues to help people grow and develop in their business, and I'm super excited about that. We have about 20 people in there now. I'm seeing the potential for this to be something that really helps Realtors. I am offering 30-day free trials to the membership. You know how to reach me to get one.
I continue to be excited about the progress of the podcast. I've really invested a lot of time, energy, and resources to grow the show to improve it in terms of editing, done by Kenny Carfagno, who does an amazing job; and show notes, where Jennifer Harshman does a great job, and that's a way to reach people.
I never thought I would have a “team” building my podcast, but that's what happened. I’ve hired someone to book me on other shows, and September was our first month doing that. I’ve been on quite a few already, and the goal is to be on five to ten a month. It's a great way to get the word out and grow what I'm doing. I’m very thankful for the team and how Jen has kind of taken over that role of booking me on podcasts.
I continue to be very thankful for how our family has been blessed. We’re all a little sick with a fall cold right now, but it’ll be fine. You know how it goes.
Thank you for being a part of this and supporting the show, sharing it with people, leaving reviews, and helping the show grow. I appreciate it so much. Whether you want a free trial to the membership, social media help with your business, really, anything I can do to help you in your business and help your business thrive and grow, support you and encourage you along the journey, I'd love to do it. Feel free to connect with me. Thank you for listening. Thanks for supporting everything going on here.
