Hey there, and welcome to the blog! I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Markie McGinty and I am a licensed Realtor with RE/MAX Experience licensed in the state of Iowa. I have my own podcast called, Scaling for Success with Markie, you can find my podcast on Spotify and Apple.

The Story Behind the Blog

I’ve always been passionate about personal growth, social media, real-estate, business and entrepreneurship and I found myself constantly talking to friends, family, and clients about the tips and tricks I had learned along the way. I realized that a lot of people were looking for practical, real-world advice that they could actually use to improve their lives or businesses.

But here’s the thing: it’s easy to get caught up in the noise. There’s no shortage of advice out there, but much of it is either too vague or too complicated to apply. And that’s when the idea for this blog really started to take shape. I wanted to create a place where you could find actionable insights, straightforward tips, and inspiration that you could actually use.

I am still learning everyday, but I have valuable experience to help others! With my business/marketing degree and my past influencer experience I implement what I have learned in a business format, growing my real estate business and help others build theirs.
