BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast - Stop Sending Boring Client Gifts w/ Giftology's John Ruhlin

John Ruhlin of Giftology doesn’t like stress balls, branded pens, or company sweatshirts. When he started the company, he did so with a goal in mind: deliver personalized, unforgettable gifts and experiences so your clients become your biggest fans. This worked out well, as John has made mentors into friends, strangers into clients, and has helped lead business professionals to create profitable relationship strategies and very strong ROR (return on relationships). ~~~~ Join The Official BiggerPockets Facebook Group 👇 https://www.facebook.com/groups/biggerpocketsofficial/ ~~~~ Work with Giftology: https://giftologygroup.com/ ~~~~ Visit John’s Website: https://johnruhlin.com/ ~~~~ Follow John on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/johnruhlin/ or @johnruhlin ~~~~ Read John’s Book “Giftology”: https://www.amazon.com/Giftology-Increase-Referrals-Strengthen-Retention-ebook/dp/B01FT16BPM ~~~~ Follow Brandon and David on Instagram: @beardybrandon or https://www.instagram.com/beardybrandon/ @davidgreene24 or https://www.instagram.com/davidgreene24/ Episode 475 Show notes at: https://www.biggerpockets.com/show475 00:00 Intro 1:06 Intro with Brandon and David 2:16 Quick Tip 3:58 Welcome, John! 9:52 What is "Giftology"? 17:18 John's "Hotel Gift' to Cameron Herold 28:24 Getting Your Foot in The Door 35:43 Timing and Picking the Right Gift 43:13 The WORST Gifts to Give 1:01:32 Famous Four
