352 How To Redefine Networking in Real Estate’s Toughest Market w/ Paul Chase

REFERRALS PODCAST

If you think networking is just about attending events, collecting business cards and shaking hands, you’re on the fast track to empty connections. Networking is really about finding those few key people who can truly make a difference in your business.

The power lies not in the quantity of connections but in the quality—those relationships that bring real value and opportunities. Focusing on meaningful interactions can transform your networking from a numbers game into a powerful tool for growth.

How do you rethink your approach to networking? Can a small, simple event focused on fewer people could actually lead to bigger opportunities for your business?

In this episode, I’m joined by real estate investment specialist, Paul Chase. We talk about how he used a unique event called "Brews and Biz" to create meaningful connections in the real estate world.

"The more I network, the more my sales team grows. If I connect with 150 people, and each of them knows 150 more, I can focus on the right ones and show them how helping me also puts money in their pockets."-Paul Chase
