Show Notes

Introduction:

We have just three rules for our guests to follow when joining us on “Selling the Dream”: 

  1. You must tell the truth
  2. You must be sincere
  3. Don’t take yourself too seriously

Today we’re talking with Josh Buchter (not Butcher!) who is a force to be reckoned with in Philly area real estate. Josh is the founder and publisher of Bucks County REAL Producers Magazine, which is for, and about, top performers in the local real estate market. He hosts exclusive themed networking events for Philadelphia-area real estate professionals that are, to say the least, a bit unconventional, but never dull.

Join us as we ask Josh about how he got started and the path he took to his current level of success. We’ll discuss authenticity in branding yourself, overcoming our internal “fraud complex,” and how you can utilize different lanes as long as you stay on the same highway to achieve your goals.
