#23: Owen Reza (Podcast's Head Film Editor; Season 1 Finale) –– Making The Elliott Feldman Podcast Season 1 with Owen Reza & Elliott Feldman

Welcome to the Elliott Feldman Podcast where we interview the business influencers and social influencers of Columbus that ultimately make our city great. Because while we may not have white sandy beaches or golden gate bridges in Columbus, we have great people with great stories and I intend to get them all on camera. I’m your host Elliott Feldman. Digital Mayor of Columbus, Attorney with an MBA, and Licensed Real Estate Agent with Weichert Realtors, Triumph Group. __ This episode marks the finale of Season 1 of The Elliott Feldman Podcast where I had a candid, behind the scenes discussion about making the podcast with my Assistant Creative Director and Head Film Editor Owen Reza. Owen is a college student from The Ohio State University who accepted my internship opportunity to work on this podcast and absolutely crushed it! With Owen Reza’s help, in under 6 months, we grew The Elliott Feldman Podcast organically, with no pre-existing audience or email list of any kind, to generating over 100,000 total impressions on the podcast and over 30,000 minutes of watch time this season! And of course, between combining forces as the architect and the artist, we were able to get some of the biggest names in Columbus on the first season of our podcast. Starting with Episode 1 with  Bob Weiler who helped build the Polaris Mall to Episode 22 with the legendary restauranteur Cameron Mitchell. Speaking of which, to our beloved guests, from the bottom of our hearts we thank you for all of your time and the amazing content you brought to the podcast this season and a big thanks to our entire audience who’ve supported us along the way. You’re going to love Owen Reza, he’s an amazing guy with an amazing story that really helped take this podcast to the next level. Hell he even created a full online training program to teach the next film editor on Season 2 how to maintain the look and feel of the podcast. Like I said, he’s absolutely amazing and now... you’ll get to learn what went down, in the making of the Elliott Feldman Podcast.

#19: Tarry Summers (Owner, Columbus Home Company) –– From One Single-Family Investment Property To Over $25 Million In Assets Under Management In Columbus, Ohio!

Welcome to the Elliott Feldman Podcast where we interview the business influencers and social influencers of Columbus that ultimately make our city great. Because while we may not have white sandy beaches or golden gate bridges in Columbus, we have great people with great stories and I intend to get them all on camera. I’m your host Elliott Feldman. Digital Mayor of Columbus, Attorney with an MBA, and Licensed Real Estate Agent with Weichert Realtors, Triumph Group. __ On this episode, we spoke with business influencer Tarry Summers, who’s one of the top real estate investors in Columbus. In this interview, we talked about how Tarry started out as a personal trainer at a gym after college. He was working 80+ hour weeks, sleeping at the gym, and hustling and grinding like crazy. But when Tarry took a vacation to Key West and finally got to escape being trapped in a gym all day, it was the first time he got to see the sunrise and set in the same day and right then and there he knew he needed to make a change in his life. What he wanted was freedom and needed the right financial vehicle to get him there. A few days later he met his first mentor who told him to start investing in real estate –– Tarry found the vehicle.  With no experience and just a dream, he bought his first single-family investment property at a HUD online auction and, over the last 8 years, he’s scaled from there. He’s built a high-performance team and now invests in single-family, rehabs, multi-family and much more. Tarry and I got deep in the weeds on his real estate investment strategy. How he’s emulating the strategy of the hedge fund, Black stone, by continuing to invest in renting out single-family homes. How he leverages technology to make his real estate business more productive with less overhead. And how his rehab projects actually improve the communities in the city of Columbus. We even got his take on the future of the Columbus real estate market and why he’s betting on our city’s continued success. It’s an amazing interview with an amazing guy and I know you’re going to love it… Stay tuned. __ WATCH THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE HERE:  http://bit.ly/efpyoutube [http://bit.ly/efpyoutube] __ To Support The Elliott Feldman Podcast, Please Feel Free To Refer To Elliott, Anyone In Central Ohio That's Looking To Buy Or Sell A Residential Home Or Condo. __ ELLIOTT’S CONTACT INFO: Elliott Feldman, esq., MBA Digital Mayor Of Columbus™ REALTOR® Weichert, Realtors - Triumph Group 614-852-0339 [tel:6148520339] elliott@elliottfeldman.com [elliott@elliottfeldman.com]
