Modern Multifamily

Stitched Marketing on going solo, slow PMCs and the top 50 trap

Mike Wolber — Tue, 22 Sep 2026 08:00:00 -0600

Summary
In this episode of Modern Multifamily, Mike Wolber brings the show back with Dana Pate, Founder/CEO of Stitched Marketing and former marketing leader at RangeWater through its growth from four properties to 400. Dana explains why so many people who go independent quietly return to a W-2 within two quarters (you report to more people, not fewer), why both large and small property management companies still move slowly on marketing decisions, and why "we just need more leads" is the same question the industry was asking ten years ago. The conversation closes on proptech go-to-market: why the obsession with the NMHC Top 50 starves companies of the mid-market partners that actually keep them afloat. For multifamily marketers, proptech operators and anyone thinking about going out on their own.

Chapters
00:00 Bringing Modern Multifamily back with Dana Pate
01:22 Launching Stitched Marketing after 15 years on the PMC side
04:12 Saying yes to everything, then learning to be choosy
06:36 Working with competitors and keeping the client list at five or six
11:24 What makes people fail when they go out on their own
16:11 Building the plane at RangeWater, from 4 to 400 properties
19:46 Two camps of slow PMCs and the "we just need more leads" trap
25:59 Crowded categories and a dashboard for your dashboards
29:30 Stop obsessing over the NMHC Top 50
31:27 Who should call Stitched Marketing

Takeaways
- Going independent means answering to more people, not fewer, and losing the title, the authority and the team.
- Large PMCs stall on red tape while small PMCs stall on fear of change, so both move slowly for opposite reasons.
- "We just need more leads" is the same question the industry asked a decade ago, and the same question gets the same answers.
- A signed contract is not buy-in; technology that the on-site team never adopts goes dusty and gets canceled.
- Proptech companies obsessed with the Top 50 should win fast-deciding mid-market partners first and move upmarket with proof.
