I created a video pitch to realtors that's on my website home page. It's nine minutes of local Northern California statistics that I compiled by looking at the MLS listings in my area and what kind of media agents were using. The video is part way down the page here: 9-Minute Video

Additionally, I created a 13-episode mini-series that dives into deeper related topics, targeting realtors with some marketing insights. The series can be subscribed to at the bottom of my home page to receive an episode each morning. Or the entire series playlist can be viewed here: Mini-Series Playlist
