Human-Led, AI-Supported: The Future of Real Estate

Hands on Approaches in Creating Great Content
Scott Hurren, CEO and Founder OTBx Air
Most agents treat social media like a billboard. They post, they hope, and they wonder why no one calls. In this session, Scott Hurren breaks down why content without strategy is just noise and how a simple shift in how you show up on video can turn your phone into a lead machine. You'll leave with a repeatable framework for creating video content that attracts real clients and builds trust before the first conversation even takes place.

Elevate: Turning Intention into Execution, Mental Resilience in Real Estate
David Greenspan, CEO, Mindshare 101
The real challenge in today’s market isn’t information, it’s execution.
Professionals have greater access than ever to strategies, tools, and training. Yet results remain inconsistent, habits fall off, and momentum fades. Not because people don’t know what to do, but because they’re not doing it at the level required to win.
ELEVATE is designed to reset how you think, how you operate, and how you show up every day.
In this high-impact session, David Greenspan breaks down where execution falls apart, why it happens, and what needs to change. Through his M x 3 framework – Mapping, MindShare, and Mindset – you’ll walk away with a clear, practical structure to take control of your time, your actions, and your results. This isn’t about adding more to your plate. It’s about finally doing the right things, consistently.
2:15 – 2:30 P.M.
