Jimmy Mackin, the CEO of Curaytor, is someone I love following on Twitter because he is someone in the industry who always sees around the next corner. He’s moving to where the puck is going before it even gets there. 

And as you’ll see when you watch the podcast, Jimmy is a clips machine. We cover so much in this one-hour conversation—from AI and consumer research to customer acquisition, marketing, and taking calculated risks. 

You’ll hear what great CEOs have in common and how much time agents should be spending on customer acquisition. And Jimmy suggests a strategy team leaders can use to motivate their agents and help them grow, whatever the market is doing. 

Every topic we cover goes back to the main point Jimmy drives home during this interview: “There has never been a better time to be good.” Tune in to learn exactly what he means.
