Coach Kyle Draper / My mission in life is to LEAVE PEOPLE BETTER THAN I FIND THEM. For almost a decade, I accomplished this as a Youth Pastor in Plano, TX. Now, I get to do this through the real estate & mortgage community. Years ago I realized that Realtors & Lenders aren’t great (to put it nicely) at social media. For almost seven years now, I’ve had the honor to love on them through teaching and equipping them to leverage social media to grow their business. I wake up every day with the desire to help more and more get to the truth about why they struggle with social media…
Want to know what that truth is? Let’s talk! 🙂
