In a noisy world where Facebook, Instagram and TikTok reign supreme, Remington Ramsey bet against the advice of every entrepreneur - he launched a print magazine.
When Ramsey started selling Cutco knives door-to-door during the Great Recession, he realized he needed a better way to find the real estate agents who could actually afford his expensive knives.
His solution? He'd create a magazine that only put the faces of top local agents on the cover.
Ramsey's magazine, Real Producers, seemed doomed from the start. Every industry insider told the then 23-year-old entrepreneur that print was dead. But Ramsey believed the value of niche print publications combined with community building could bridge an increasingly fractured and cutthroat real estate industry so that he could eventually sell more knives.
Against all odds, the magazine was an instant hit among top agents and industry professionals.
Real Producers now publishes local editions in over 130 markets - but it's not the printing that built the brand. By strengthening connections in the real estate community, Ramsey has created an enviable personal network at the center of a media ecosystem.
The story of Real Producers rise to fame provides a blueprint for anyone looking to launch a brand in a crowded market. Ramsey's story showcases how conviction, grit and a deep understanding of a narrow audience can make the difference between failure and success. -
