  • Summary

  • In this episode of Commercially Speaking, Bo Barron, CCIM and Timmy Barron, ADHD welcome special guests Matt Stone and Justin Ryder, both CCIMs, to share their unique journeys from ministry to thriving careers in Commercial Real Estate (CRE). Matt, who owns his own brokerage in Lexington, KY, and Justin, a rising CRE influencer, both emphasize the human side of the business—describing their time in ministry as a “master’s degree in people.” Matt recounts his early days when he joined a brokerage, not even realizing it focused on commercial, not residential, real estate. Meanwhile, Justin shares how a simple idea to post LinkedIn content led to unexpected deals and opened doors on a global level. Since launching his YouTube channel in early 2024, Justin has connected with an international audience and recently attended an exclusive NYC Gala with top CRE influencers, including Bo Barron. This episode is a masterclass on connecting with people. Discover how caring for clients and reflecting empathy and expertise in real life and through your online presence can open doors in ways you might never expect. Whether you're starting in CRE or looking to expand your influence, Matt and Justin’s stories offer invaluable lessons. 🔔 Subscribe for more insights on succeeding in CRE through meaningful connections and effective content creation!
