About Stan Glover + Josh Rufolo and Pocket Properties:
“Josh Rufolo is a seasoned businessman. He's successfully opened 11 direct sales offices throughout the country, while also starting a data management company. He specializes in sales management and business development.
Stanley Glover developed his business acumen at a young age. He quickly advanced in sales by successfully recruiting and managing a team of 4. Upon departing he co-founded Throne Capital Group & Pocket Properties before the age of 22.
Pocket Properties is a mobile focused platform that allows users to buy, trade, and sell fractional shares of real estate for less than $10. By breaking down real estate into smaller (fractional) pieces, Pocket Properties is able to eliminate cost as a barrier to entry for investors. This means more people have access to the rapidly growing and expansive real estate investing market. In short, Pocket Properties turns a game that very few can play into one that everyone can.”
