Ashley Trefney on Real Estate, Social Media & Building a Business

In this episode of The Closing Table, James sits down with Ashley Trefney, a Keller Williams real estate agent, to talk about her journey into real estate, building a business through relationships, and using social media to stay top of mind. Ashley shares how she left corporate America for real estate, the lessons she's learned as both a team and solo agent, and why consistency and self-motivation are so important in the industry. She also breaks down her approach to social media, door knocking, giveaways, client events, referrals, and generating business without relying solely on traditional lead sources. The conversation also covers first-time homebuyers, building a sphere of influence, hiring help to create more freedom, traveling while running a real estate business, and some of Ashley's experiences outside of real estate—including dog sitting, Zumba, travel, and life in downtown Detroit. If you're a real estate professional, considering a career in real estate, or simply interested in how successful agents build relationships and grow their business, this episode is worth a watch.
