Through his successful corporate career in Telecom, today’s guest mastered the art and science of sales, funnel management, marketing, strategic business planning, and financial forecasting, and he used these skills to build multiple seven-figure real estate businesses. Tuning in, you’ll hear from Sterling Chapman, a father, husband, real estate investor, and podcast host of The Rent Roll Radio Show.
