Profile bio
About Kevin Ready
Kevin Ready is a General Manager, CoStar Group at CoStar Group. He is proficient in Japanese. Colleagues describe him as "I met Mr. Kevin Ready at a session he led for TechRanch cohorts (Austin, TX). Mr. Ready invited us to make our investor pitches for his feedback. It could have been an ordinary session, an oft-repeated tussle with language and stylistics of presentation that also stayed within the constraints of time. And I am never easily impressed, especially not with practiced, superficial advice-sharing. With Mr. Ready, I mentally straightened each time he spoke. Here was a person who paid due attention to the gamut of his experiences in order to produce a thick description of their gist that just made emotional sense. Not only that, Mr. Ready weaved this gist into the fabric of our stories, adding almost a new meaning to them. To me, a moment ripe for easy narcissism (and why not!), was all about humility about building and creating and moving. Here was an honorable entrepreneur paying it forward, paying exquisite attention to the very act in a way that was evocative and inspiring. Mr. Ready gently propelled me on a journey to think a little differently than I think. It's like he already knew the journeys we are all on and what we needed to travel safely to the last point in the "line of intention." I am not wiser for having met you, but you made me feel like a "hero" in my journey. So thank you for your mentorship, and mostly for your commitment to shaping yourself into an human being through every conversation you accept. That is the mark of an evolved individual. May we all aspire to be one. Thank you again, Shubhra", "Kevin is a serial entrepreneur who is results driven. At CV Kevin did a great job leading the launch of autos.com for cars.com and building its organic traffic. As general manager of apartmenthomeliving.com and autos.com, Kevin lead a team of focused SEO and SEM experts, motivating them to the extra distant on behalf of CV. I highly recommend Kevin as an accomplished senior executive in online expertise.", and "Kevin is a thoughtful and passionate leader with a strong affinity for product, marketing and technology. During our time together at Apartments.com I had the pleasure of working with Kevin on several projects, and he always brought a can-do spirit, unique perspective and a problem-solver's approach."
