‘Information Is Currency:’ A Conversation With RISMedia Founder & CEO John Featherston

RISMedia’s John Featherston, the real estate media company’s founder, CEO and publisher, recently found himself on the opposite end of the microphone as a recent guest of “Start With A Win,” a podcast hosted by RE/MAX CEO, Adam Contos.

During the 23-minute discussion, Featherston talked about his popularized phrase, “Information Is Currency,” and why it’s particularly critical for real estate professionals, whose success in the business is dependent upon their knowledge about the industry.

The lively discussion is well-worth a listen and includes many helpful insights from Featherston, who Contos warmly dubs “The Encyclopedia of Real Estate.”

Take a listen here.
