About this episode

Blair Knowles is the Founder and CEO of RAIN—the Real Estate AI Network—a modern coaching and training community for agents who want tactical, not theoretical, AI.

Built for traction over hype, RAIN offers field-tested strategies and tools that show agents exactly how to implement AI in their businesses today. It's designed for busy agents who want to get started with AI but don't have time to sift through endless tools, trends, and misinformation. Blair built RAIN to be a shortcut—delivering only what works, with short, actionable trainings that save agents time and drive results.

Blair began her real estate career in 2013, built a top-performing team, and launched her independent brokerage, Ridgeline Real Estate, in 2020. Today, Ridgeline includes more than 25 agents and staff. Under her leadership, the firm will surpass $150M in annual sales and cross half a billion in total volume in 2025.

She continues to lead with a focus on clarity, implementation, and forward momentum—both inside RAIN and in the real estate industry at large.

In this episode, Karen and Blair discuss:

  • Success Story of Blair
  • Commit to Get Leads
    • The way people converse with AI is changing how they search. It's not just keywords any longer; it is sentences or paragraphs with personal information.

  • Consult to Sell

    • By the time someone lands on your site, you've already built trust by answering their direct questions, which leads to higher conversion rates.

  • Connect to Build and Grow

    • AI allows you to compress the amount of time it takes to do repetitive tasks, giving you more time to do the other things that require a human touch.

  • Success Thinking, Activities, and Vision

    • Lean into the things on your goal list that are making you nervous. That is where the actions need to be taken, the focus needs to be given, and where the growth will come.

  • Sweet Spot of Success

"When you find the things that scare you a little bit, just take action faster." - Blair Knowles

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about how DevFound's AI matching, resumes, and referrals work.

DevFound's AI Copilot ingests your profile, goals, and live job data to deliver curated matches in seconds. Every match includes a resume variant, suggested referrals, and interview prep so you can act immediately. The more feedback you provide, the sharper the Copilot becomes.

AI-led job searches shrink the hours spent sifting through boards and formatting resumes. DevFound pairs automation with your personal outreach, so you reserve energy for interviews and negotiation. Traditional networking still matters, but AI gives you a lift before you even send a message.

Modern AI roles expect comfort with production-grade code, data fluency, and practical ML tooling. The strongest candidates pair deep technical chops with storytelling—translating model impact to product, GTM, and exec partners. Continuous learning keeps you ahead as stacks evolve.

DevFound rewards active seekers. Keep your profile fresh, respond to match quality prompts, and enable alerts so you never miss a role. The AI prioritizes companies and teams that align with your feedback, accelerating both introductions and interview invites.

High-density tech hubs continue to host the deepest AI talent pools, yet distributed teams are catching up fast. Use DevFound filters to hone in on onsite, hybrid, or fully remote roles and watch openings expand across time zones.

DevFound aggregates thousands of remote AI openings and flags the nuances—core hours, async culture, and visa needs—up front. The Copilot also recommends how to position your distributed work experience so hiring managers know you can thrive on a remote team.
