From Uber Driver to Top Producer: Renee Burke’s Story of Grit, Growth & Giving When the market slowed, Renee Burke didn’t give up—she pivoted. A former stay-at-home mom turned real estate agent, Renee built her business with her husband flipping homes. But when the flips stopped and interest rates soared, she had to find new ways to connect and stay relevant. So she started driving Uber—with a stack of listing brochures in the back seat. And it worked. 💥 In this episode, you’ll learn: Why Renee sees herself as the “Home CEO”—Celebrating Every Opportunity How one Uber ride with RE/MAX’s CTO led to a personal call from CEO Nick Bailey Why investing in relationships pays off (even if it takes time) How Tom Ferry coaching and ReminderMedia helped her rebuild her business The mindset shift from “Why aren’t people choosing me?” to “How can I serve them better?” ✨ Renee’s mantra: HOPE — Help One Person Every Day 🎯 Renee’s Advice: Be consistent. Invest in relationships. And don’t be afraid to hustle in creative ways—because the people who make it are the ones who don’t quit when it gets hard. 🔗 Resources & Connect: • Instagram: @homeceo.reneeburke • Call/Text: 303-995-3567 • FREE Sample of ReminderMedia’s Magazine: remindermedia.com/staypaidmarketing
