What does it take to scale a property management business while keeping its culture intact? In this episode, we sit down with Sam Hewetson, Business Development Manager at Aspire Property Management, ahead of PMC 2026. Sam's own path from leasing agent, to property manager, to now leading a team of sales experts as BDM mirrors the growth story he shares: how Aspire has expanded into an operation with its own in-house maintenance arm, why attracting and developing young talent matters for the industry's future, and how leadership, autonomy, and genuine support shape Aspire's culture. We also dig into where AI and technology are taking property management, what it takes to expand into new locations, and Sam's own discipline as a marathon runner and what that teaches him about business.
