One of the things that used to piss me off the most over the last couple of years: when inferior agents offered a sub-par commission for the buyer’s agent, and I was representing a buyer.
Yes, I could have had my clients make up the difference. Aside from that though, what I really wanted...
Some of my recent posts were intended to fire you up and challenge your thinking. You might even say I was poking fun at a few of you - kind of like a couple of siblings do on a long car ride.
Having said that, you probably wouldn’t disagree that the business and the market has changed...
I don’t really mean “don’t be on video.” I mean video should not be anywhere near the top of your concerns or focus. Unless of course you are exceptionally good at it - which is not most of us.
I was listening in on an office of agents who had participated in a national...
If you are someone who loves getting reviews and has a lot of client reviews, you are likely to be upset by this post.
I am not a big fan of reviews. I am biased for sure, but let me give you an example.
A couple of weeks ago I needed to buy a car for my daughter. She had a car, and...
“I have it time blocked, I just don’t do it.”
I was doing one of my workshops this week, and we were specifically talking about door-knocking. One guy shouts out, “I have it time blocked, I just don’t do it.”
Best line of the week!
He said it so...
My friend Julie and I were talking about ghosting. She does sales for a company and we were discussing how many people “ghost” her.
Now, as a salesperson, we kind of know that some people are not going to call us back. That’s often their way of saying, “not...
Yesterday I was on a 100-person Zoom call with Dan Sullivan and some of his team at Strategic Coach. Dan is well regarded as an incredible thinker and considered the world's foremost expert on entrepreneurship in action. He practically invented coaching for entrepreneurs...
Resistance.
That thing, that force that keeps us from doing what we know we should do but don’t do.
We know we should leave the house more. We know we should be around more people. We know we should make the call our intuition tells us to make.
But we don’t. More importantly, we know...
I lose my cool sometimes. I am human, I am fallible, and boy do I get upset when I get upset!
Yesterday was day one of a three-day workshop (not a real estate event) where I am one of 24 other participants. We started at 11 am Eastern and went until 9 pm’ish. We were...
The winds are blowing, and the seas of selling real estate have become quite choppy.
When I was in college my family had a trailer and a boat that we parked in Blythe, CA on the Colorado River. We had several different boats growing up, but this boat was soooo sweet. It was called a Stoker Sport...
Last week we talked about consistency.
My mentor used to tell me that what we got paid for in real estate was consistency. We got paid for showing up in a certain way, day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year. If you did that, then over time, you built a business...
