A Good Sport

There are two things you need to know about Ron Pivo’s work in Portland Real Estate:

  • Presentation Skills are the foundation of Marketing Success.
  • Communication Skills create Negotiating Success.

Ron used to have another job. He was the sports guy appearing on the local news in 4 different cities over 17 years. During that time he wrote and edited, operated cameras and sound systems. The most important skill was in finding and telling a better story. Ron won awards for his sports journalism because he told the better story. [link to awards list]

Ron Pivo is a good sport. Plays Fair. Prepares Well. Competes Hard.

Marketing. In the real estate world Ron saw right away that his presentation skills are the tools you need to successfully market a home for sale. Ron knows how to choose the most compelling parts of a story. And he knows how to present that story clearly and simply.

Negotiation. One of the lessons that I took from my years sports reporting is that often the winners persuade the losers. They convince the other side to lose. I love the sports world and will always be fan. True stories of winning and losing are compelling. Some of the best story are the stories come from the players off the field.
