About this episode

Host Kathy Byrnes discusses rural real estate strategies with guest Cheney Cofer, focusing on referrals and community engagement.

Summary: Host Kathy Byrnes sits down with Washington-based agent Cheney Cofer to explore working strictly by referral in a rural market. Cheney details how she leverages her deep roots in the local wellness community to maintain top-of-mind status without ever purchasing online leads or cold calling. However, the episode heavily shifts into the host sharing personal historical anecdotes about past direct mail platforms, long-term client tracking stories, and detailed explanations of her own ChatGPT custom workflows. Because the discussion is unstructured and rambly, it is recommended to skip.
