My guest on today’s podcast is Jake Maines—a realtor whose path to success blends sharp marketing expertise with a passion for building genuine relationships. Before becoming a top-producing agent, Jake spent years mastering digital marketing—running Google ads, crafting SEO strategies, and learning the art of targeted outreach. But during COVID, his own real estate investing goals pushed him to get licensed, and what started as a side hustle quickly became his full-time calling.In this episode, you’ll hear how Jake built his business without cold calls or high-pressure sales. Instead, he’s focused on two things: smart, strategic digital marketing and hosting one of the region’s most popular in-person networking events—Networking Happy Hour—now four years strong and attracting hundreds of professionals each month. We’ll also talk about his transition from salary to commission, how he’s adapted through shifting markets, the value of long-term relationship building, and his take on what real success really means.Where to find Jake:Networking Happy Hourjakemainesrealtor.comTake the Financial Health Assessment at realestatesuccesspod.com Get in touch with Leland: Website: PeaceLink Financial Planning Instagram: @peacelinkfp
