In this episode of the Digible Dudes Podcast, we sit down with Laurel Zacher, Founder of LZ Strategic and former VP of Marketing at Security Properties Residential, to explore the real state of marketing in multifamily.
After leaving a high-powered VP role, Laurel launched a fractional CMO consultancy without a website, a pitch deck, or a team—just pure reputation and results. Now, she’s helping property management companies bridge the gap between marketing, operations, and revenue.
This episode is a masterclass in modern multifamily marketing leadership. If you’re in marketing, operations, or proptech—don’t miss it.
