Interrupting our regular real estate content for a big Braden update!
He’s officially stepping into a new role as a Business Program Specialist at Souris Basin Planning Council, and it fits him way too well. If you’ve ever watched him strike up a conversation with literally anyone about entrepreneurship or our business ventures or sheep ranching, you get it. This is his element.
We’re proud (and not surprised) to see him doing big things, building connections, and supporting local businesses in a community we love.
Don’t worry, he’s still very much here for your real estate needs. His new hours might just mean a few more house showings on the calendar. It’s really a win-win. 😉
✨ Meet Braden Lindquist, SBPC's new Business Program Specialist! In his role, Braden will build and strengthen relationships with local businesses, lenders, and partners across the region to support our business development and lending programs.
💡 Braden brings something special to his role: real entrepreneurial experience! He has launched several businesses, from landscaping to sheep ranching to real estate. His background gives him an understanding of how to take a leap, navigate setbacks, and find connections and resources that help businesses grow.
🏠 Raised in Minot, Braden is passionate about the community he calls home, especially the supportive small business culture, recent downtown updates, and the close relationships that define rural North Dakota. When he’s not working, you’ll find him outdoors, on the softball field, or at local events. Welcome, Braden! 🎉
