E22 - He Stopped Shooting… and His Business Exploded to $350K | Austin Sauer's Story
In this episode, I sit down with Austin Sauer, owner of a growing real estate media company out of Kentucky.
Austin’s story is one a lot of photographers will relate to — starting out solo, doing everything himself, and figuring it out one shoot at a time.
He shares how he went from grinding through sixty shoots a year to building a streamlined, profitable business that’s now running with a full team in the field.
We talk about:
- How he scaled from $50k to nearly $350k in annual revenue
- What he learned from hiring (and losing) his first team members
- How automation and systems like PixlCRM helped him finally step out of survival mode
- Why slowing down to focus on brand and process can actually accelerate your growth
If you’ve ever felt stuck shooting every house yourself or wondering how to make your business more sustainable — this episode will give you the clarity and inspiration you need to take the next step.
🎧 Listen now and get ready to rethink what’s possible for your real estate media business.
