Bring Systems Thinking
to Your Stage
The talk your audience needs. The book they'll actually use.
Vivian Yip spent nearly seven years managing iPhone launches at Apple. Today she teaches investors, entrepreneurs, and real estate professionals how to build businesses that run like the world's best supply chains — predictable, scalable, and friction-free.
"The system is the strategy. Everything else is noise."
— Vivian Yip, The Frictionless MTR SystemCommanding Rooms. Moving People to Act.
She Didn't Just Study
the System. She Built It.
Before becoming one of the most recognized voices in mid-term rentals, Vivian Yip spent nearly seven years at Apple as an iPhone Program Manager — coordinating complex supply chains across multiple product launches and learning firsthand what separates businesses that scale from those that stall.
She took that same operational discipline into real estate, building CRU Homes into a 1,000+ property mid-term rental network, founding Hestia360 property management, and writing The Frictionless MTR System — the framework that has helped thousands of operators build sustainable, predictable rental businesses.
She co-invests in real estate with her husband James Keller (licensed GC, Texas Realtor, former home inspector). Together they've completed 40+ flips and manage a personal MTR portfolio. Vivian hosts The Mid Term Rental Movement podcast and speaks at real estate and women's leadership events nationwide.
Three Talks. One Message:
Build It Like a System.
Each talk is customizable to your audience and event theme. Vivian works with you before the event to tailor the content, examples, and call to action.
How supply chain discipline — the same principles behind the world's most efficient product launches — applies to building a rental business that runs without you. Built for real estate investor conferences and entrepreneur audiences.
A raw, personal keynote about the moment Vivian's body said "enough" during the iPhone 12 launch — and what it took to build a life and business on her own terms. Ideal for women's leadership conferences and reinvention-focused stages.
A data-driven, story-rich talk on how the gap between short-term and long-term rentals has created one of the most resilient income streams in real estate — and how to capture it with the right systems in place.

Why books instead of a flat fee? Because 100 copies of a book in the hands of your attendees creates more lasting value than a speaker check that disappears after the event. Your audience leaves with a tool they'll actually use — and they'll remember where they got it. Meanwhile, a comparable keynote speaker charges $10K–$25K in fees alone. This model gives you a keynote, a meet & greet, and a premium branded gift — all in one.
