About Patrick
I’m Patrick O’Connor, team lead of the #1 Coldwell Banker real estate team in South Carolina and a recognized leader in the state’s real estate industry. With more than a decade in the business, my team and I have helped more than 1,600 families buy and sell real estate and have closed more than $500 million in career sales volume.
Beyond leading one of South Carolina’s top-producing real estate teams, I’m a nationally recognized speaker and content creator. I speak to real estate professionals across the country, and one of my greatest passions is helping agents grow through online marketing, video, social media, AI, and emerging technology.
I practice what I teach. I’ve grown 2 separate YouTube channels to more than 100,000 subscribers each—one focused on real estate and another on travel and lifestyle. My firsthand experience building large online audiences gives me a practical perspective on how today’s agents can use content to build authority, expand their reach, and generate business.
As a national speaker, I’ve shared the stage at major industry conferences, including a keynote presentation at the 2026 Tom Ferry Success Summit and a 2025 presentation at Coldwell Banker’s Gen Blue focused on AI. Whether on stage, on camera, or leading my team, my focus is on helping real estate professionals build authority, attract clients, and create sustainable businesses in an evolving industry.

FAQ
Do I need an existing channel?
No. If you're starting from zero, we'll plan your niche, first videos and setup.
Do you guarantee subscriber or income results?
No. I earned over $300,000 from YouTube in under a year, but my results are not typical and are not a guarantee of yours. I share what worked for me and build a plan for you. Results depend on your niche, consistency and many things outside anyone's control.
Can you help me land brand partnerships?
I'll show you how I secured partnerships through my travel channel and how to apply that to your niche. I can't promise any brand will say yes.
How long did your channels take to grow?
I took my real estate channel from 1,000 to over 100,000 subscribers in 8 months. I posted my first travel video in June 2026, and my travel channel passed 100,000 subscribers in about 5 months. My results are not typical and are not a guarantee of yours.
I'm a realtor. Is this only for real estate?
No. I coach local businesses and travel and lifestyle creators too. My two channels are in very different niches.

On a Google Meet video call. I'll send you the link when we confirm your time.

Yes, up to 24 hours before your session, by calling, texting or emailing me.
