PROCESS AUTOMATION

When we don’t have good systems and automations to protect us, we tend to compromise on our standards and our practices…

You will be guided through the process of building a business case for automation, building an implementation roadmap, and then tips on the tools that are necessary to succeed.

About Your Instructor

Wolfgang Croskey has been working in real estate since he was a little kid. From stuffing envelopes, unclogging toilets, and serving notices, to creating leases, he has touched all aspects of property management. He is a well-respected member of NARPM, a servant leader to his community, and to top it all off, a father of 6.

As an advocate of education, Wolf obtained a Master’s Degree in Education Curriculum & Instruction 

His passion lies in educating his fellow property managers on how to increase profit and leverage time through the implementation of processes and automation. 

Several years back, Wolf struggled to work 11-hour days, 6 days a week, using nothing but paper checklists and other primitive means of running his family’s business. 

It wasn’t until he invested in himself and his family’s business that he realized…

“When we don’t have good systems and automation to protect us, we tend to compromise on our standards and our practices”. 

Wolfgang is on a mission to “Provide a high-quality experience, consistent every time, everywhere”.

FAQ

The course meetings are all recorded. So you can view the recordings at any time. Having a team member join for one session will not be the most effective and actually may cause frustration for them. Imagine taking someone’s seat at a movie theater halfway through a movie. “What did I miss?”, “How do I do that?”. Your team member may not have the most productive experience sitting in for you.

Yes and Yes! We have both. Our Virtual Chief Technology Officer Course provides some pre-recorded content broken up into different topics. You can view these in any order and pace that works for you. We then also have live sessions where we go over parts of the modules.

Yes, they are very interactive. Who wants to just sit and stare at a screen? The live sessions are dependent upon questions and your input helps make each session rich and meaningful. Participants will be able to ask questions and receive help with issues they may be facing with building their automation. The live sessions also provide an opportunity to get the latest and greatest as Wolfgang provides updates to different automation as well as new tools that he has implemented.

Yes, all sessions are recorded and made available inside the online course. You can view them as much or as little as you like.

This is a personal choice. You know your company best and what the company needs. We recommend that you make changes as you go so that you can bring any hurdles you face to the live sessions so you can receive support. Also, the best time to plant a tree was yesterday. Sometimes we procrastinate making changes as we fear technology or are afraid that we may break something. Our Instructor will guide you and make sure that you are successful with the content covered in the course.

We want to make sure that you are using software that is proven, reliable, and easy to use. While he cannot cover every tool used in our industry, Wolfgang will talk about some software he may use or not use and does have experience with many of the options on the market. In the course, he will explain why he selected the software he uses and what we feel are solid industry solutions.

This course is month by month. You may cancel at any time.

The live sessions are twice a month. Each session will provide an assignment, don’t worry, there are no grades or tests. The assignments should take a participant about 2 hours to complete.

The live sessions are usually 1hr-1 ½ hrs long.
