Stride: https://go.retipster.com/stride/yt-kUr2GSRwifM What would happen if your CRM became the central brain of your land investing business? In this conversation, Mike Balcom and I sit down with JT Olmstead to examine the AI workflows, API connections, and automation systems he has built around Stride CRM. JT explains how his team consolidated data from multiple old CRMs, property research platforms, call transcripts, mapping tools, and internal databases into one organized system. He also shares how AI now builds many of the connections that previously required developers. One of the biggest results was reducing lead intake work from roughly 20 minutes to as little as one or two minutes. Instead of copying property details between systems, the automation collects the data, organizes it, and prepares the lead so a team member can respond immediately. We also discuss where AI should not be trusted. JT explains why land pricing remains too complex and risky to automate completely, how he decides when a human must remain in the loop, and why the best AI agents usually handle narrow administrative tasks.
