Growing up lower-middle-class and in my opinion unimpressive, I carried the weight of self-doubt throughout my life. The persistent negative self-talk served as a constant companion, a reminder of my humble beginnings. I had teachers and bosses throughout my life who reminded me of this by saying: “you’re a moron” (3rd Grade Teacher), “you’ll never get it” (7th grade math teacher), “you’ll never amount to anything” (HS Guidance Counselor), {whispered to another employee} “he’s not that smart…” (sales manager at a tile store). My tenure at Zillow marked a transformative chapter – a crucial juncture in both my career and personal narrative. Up until that point I worked in sales environments that were easy to stand out on top (despite not being smart). The quotas were low, so was the pay. And being a top performer at these companies gave me a false sense of confidence, which was masking what I knew to be true, I wasn’t shit. Can’t lose if you don’t try, right? Well I ended up trying and landing at Zillow. Furthermore I saw early success during my ramp up (thanks to my managers Samy and Doug) and tried even harder by going to the very challenging Vertical Living team. Within a few months I very quickly had accumulated two quota misses. it was proved to me what I already knew… Brant… you suck! The reality that three strikes and you’re out hit me hard, and I realized I was about to let down everyone who believed in me. I was now married, wanted to grow a family, and people at Zillow were rooting for me to win. Despite the pressure, I made a conscious choice to silence the negative self-talk. This was more than hitting quotas; it was about breaking free from the chains of self-doubt long rooted in my psyche. Who was I to prove myself right, and all these people wrong? Over the next six years, I rewrote the script. By refusing entry to negative thoughts, I not only met quotas but surpassed them. I got promoted, grew my career. It was a testament to overcoming self-imposed limitations and proving that one's origin doesn't dictate their destination. #BreakingSelfDoubt #CareerTransformation #RisingAboveBackground

Learn to Say No: Saying no is an act of self-love. Set boundaries and prioritize your well-being by declining commitments that don't align with your values or goals.

Hiring family members as employees can be beneficial for both your business and your loved ones. It can strengthen family bonds and create a sense of loyalty and trust within the company. By hiring family members, you can ensure they have a vested interest in the business's success and are likelier to go above and beyond in their roles. Additionally, working with family members can lead to better communication and understanding, as a foundation of trust and familiarity is already in place.

Recently, I had an almost 3-hour long conversation with a potential new team member at Beanstalk Real Estate Solutions. It was not just an interview, it was a journey through their life, their experiences, and their aspirations. It reminded me of the importance of listening and putting others first.   In today's fast-paced business world, it's easy to "dial it in" and overlook the important details. We've become a "cut & paste" society, where individuality often gets lost in the shuffle. But not here at Beanstalk. We believe that the devil is in the details. We take the time to get to know someone, to ask questions, to understand "their story". Because every story matters.   Whether we're managing a commercial property, securing tenants that meet a building or client's requirements, or handling sales or purchases of either commercial or residential properties, we make our clients' mission, vision, and story the priority. At Beanstalk, we tailor our services to those we serve and represent. No one is "just a client". They are THE client. Because in the end, it's the people that make the difference. And we're here to make that difference count. #ClientFirst #DetailsMatter #MakingADifference
