Who is Alexandra Adkins?

Hey Sprouters, we are so lucky to get to talk with Alexandra on today’s episode of Marketing Home, Marketing You!


Maybe you are (or were) a fresh out of school person looking for what you want to do? Remember that feeling? Well, when Alexandra was there she decided to try things out. She answered an ad for a leasing consultant and soon found her “place” in helping others find a home. You can hear her on the full podcast above or go through the highlights with the time codes below. This episode is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcast.
