“Inman is thrilled to announce the return of its Influencer program, showcasing the expertise and journeys of industry trailblazers,” Gaudu told Inman.

“The program is designed to offer a behind-the-scenes look at how the industry’s most recognizable names are navigating the complexities of modern business to meet consumers where they are,” Gaudu added. “Through curated content spanning tech stacks, marketing strategies and lifestyle insights tailored to consumer demands, our aim is to empower real estate professionals with the tools to refine their unique value propositions and elevate their businesses to the next level.”

Serhant went on to create his own spin-offs, Sell it Like Serhant and Million Dollar Listing: Ryan’s Renovation, release a robust real estate education program, write three books and found his eponymous brokerage during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. He’s also got a new reality TV show forthcoming — House of SERHANT. on Netflix.

It’s no wonder then that Serhant is approaching two million followers on Instagram. The CEO seems to always have his hand in a new project, challenging the industry to become ever better.

He also continues to represent notable properties, including a penthouse at Central Park Tower, currently the tallest residential tower in the world.
