Meet Ryan Murdoch
Real Estate Growth Strategist | 8+ Years of Industry Impact
I’m Ryan Murdoch, and my expertise lies in master salesmanship, strategic consultation, and business growth. Over the past 8+ years, I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the best in the industry — helping high-performing agents and boutique teams scale their businesses smarter, not harder. Working firsthand with agents to scale from $10M to $50M, and others up to $450M, together we can get it done.
Before founding Cicada Consulting, I honed my skills working hands-on with one of the Top 3 Teams in San Francisco, gaining deep, actionable insights into sales optimization, system scaling, and brand identity. Now, I guide agents to sharpen their brands, optimize their systems, and grow with confidence.
