Build a sustainable business that withstands burnout, thrives in shifting markets, and creates true freedom.
About this Event


Imagine a business that fuels your life instead of drains it.


More agents than ever are leaving the industry. Not because they lack talent but because the business has become unpredictable, unsustainable, and exhausting. There’s a widening gap between the lifestyle agents envisioned when they started… and the one they’re actually living.

BUILT TO LAST is a LIVE, IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE for real estate professionals who want more than shiny objects, gimmicks, or another motivational pep talk. This event is built for serious professionals who value longevity, stability, and a business that works for them not the other way around.



This room is for you if:
  • You’re a new agent staring at an empty pipeline and feeling the pressure.
  • You’re a seasoned pro wondering how long you can stay on the hamster wheel before burnout wins.
  • You’re growth-minded and committed to developing true staying power even when motivation fades.



SPEAKERS (1:00–4:00 PM)

Robert Colello
7-figure top producer, investor, and father of four who relocated his family across the country only to experience complete financial collapse. His comeback story is not theoretical — it's an incredible story of redemption, forged in the fire of bankruptcy, uncertainty, and the unyielding drive to rebuild. Come learn how he bounced back in the face of adversity to become one of the most inspirational figures in our industry.

Derek Marlin
CEO of a successful real estate investment team. Derek will unpack the most challenging project of his career — years of setbacks, delays, and adversity — and the leadership mindset required to persevere when quitting would have been easier.

Ryan Robson
Founder & CEO of Rocket Lister, a rapidly expanding, multi-state real estate photography company. Ryan will share the personal side of growth — how to scale a business aggressively without sacrificing the most important relationship in your life: your marriage.




NETWORKING HAPPY HOUR (4:00–5:30 PM)

Live music, snacks, beverages, and 100+ real estate professionals committed to playing the long game.

Because staying power isn’t built alone...and this is not your typical real estate happy hour.




YOU WILL WALK AWAY WITH:
  • Practical systems to reduce burnout.
  • Strategies to build a sustainable, market-resilient business.
  • Insights on protecting key relationships while your business grows.
  • High-caliber industry connections that could change the trajectory of your career.


If you’re serious about building something that lasts, this room was designed for you.
