#207: How to Grow a Brand - Hans Lorei
May 16, 2024 Season 1 Episode 207
Max Gagliardi

This episode's guest is Hans Lorei. I met Hans in the short-term rental space, and have been following him as he's grown a massive interior design brand across social media the last 8 months. 

Interior design has always been one of the most important aspects of building a home. However, it can be very challenging due to the need to balance multiple factors like functionality, aesthetics, budget, and technical requirements, all while accommodating subjective preferences and evolving trends.

In this episode, we decode the formula of how to grow a brand on social media, how Hans grew his account to 500k followers on Instagram (in just 8 months!), how to lean into a niche and ultimately monetize it once you've build out the distribution channels. We also discuss Real Estate development and the subdivide land project Hans and his team is building.

How you enjoy the show!
