"Half the battle to providing good training is to make it engaging. If it is not engaging, then it doesn’t matter how good the content is, because you’re going to lose your audience.

In this episode, Brent Williams reflects on his beginning in the multifamily industry and how his experience as a resident led him ultimately to launch Multifamily Insiders. A resource for professionals to share ideas, best practices, and emerging trends, it now has over 300,000 unique visitors to its website every year. With his entrepreneurial background, Williams advises people not to fear failure.
