Whether we like it or not, we all exist online. The problem with most real estate agents is, when you Google them, all you find are incomplete profiles. This is what the consumer sees when they search for you, and it might make them question if you’re even still in the business.
How do we make sure our online presence doesn’t work against us? In this episode, I talk about the importance of completing your profiles on platforms like Zillow and Realtor.com.
I’ll share simple steps to enhance your online visibility and how it can attract more clients and boost your business.

In this market, selling 3 listings in just 5 days seems highly unlikely, but that’s exactly what one of my agents did.
And he’s only been licensed for 5 months!
When it comes to getting and closing more listings, you really don’t have to figure out how to do it. It’s already been figured out - all you need to do is commit to the process and do it consistently.
What are the things this agent did to close more listings in a week than other agents close in 3 months? In this episode, I share what it takes to close more listings in this market.

The NAR settlement is all anyone can talk about in real estate lately. The problem is most of the conversation is based in fear, scarcity and a gloom and doom mentality. Agents actually have the opportunity to come out of this change better and stronger, but that depends on where you put your focus.
Instead of complaining and panicking, we could be using the settlement to give our clients a better service.
What should we be thinking about when it comes to settlement? How do we set ourselves up for success? In this episode, I talk about how to be solution-oriented in the wake of the NAR settlement.

The key to taking more listings is setting more appointments. The biggest barrier to getting to the appointment is the first no you’ll get from a seller.
That first no is nothing more than a smoke screen that you have to get past. What strategies can we use to get past the smoke screen and interrupt a pattern of negativity?
In this episode I share simple ways to redirect a rejection and turn it into an appointment.

In the competitive world of real estate, hearing a "no" can feel like hitting a dead end. It can leave us feeling like it’s not worth making the ask again.
But the truth is, "no" doesn't always mean never? Very often a “no” means “not now” or it’s just a smoke screen that’s a lot easier to overcome than you think.
How do you turn rejection into an opportunity? By reframing our mindset and persisting with meaningful dialogue. In this episode, I share practical strategies to boost your success in real estate sales, especially when you get a “no.”

Working your database is a surefire way to generate a ton of business without bringing in any new leads. But in order to convert your contacts into clients or referrals, you have to have an engaged database.
You have to turn the names and email addresses you’ve collected into a true audience that reads and responses to your content. Here’s the simple secret: the more valuable our content is, the more engaged our database will be. That in turn, makes it so much easier to get responses to our offerings.
What kind of content should we be putting in front of our database? How do we make database engagement as much of a habit as lead generation? In this video, I share 5 simple ways to get more engagement out of your database.
End every communication with a soft offering to help someone. If you give people valuable content, they will be okay with you asking to do business with them. -Greg Harrelson
Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode
-Don’t be shy to make the ask
As salespeople, it’s critical to put our offerings in front of people. If we’re contacting them regularly, how do we make a passive offer instead of an aggressive, direct one?
-The power of an engaged database
There’s a big difference between a collection of contacts and an actual engaged database. How do we turn a stranger into a source of business?
-The art of drip campaigns
If you contact your database too much, you’ll get more opt-outs. If you contact them too little, they’ll forget about you. What’s the sweet spot?

Across the country, real estate markets have been split into two distinct groups. The few agents taking all the things, and the many who aren’t taking any listings at all.
People might think it has to do with the market itself, but this has nothing to do with how many listings are on the MLS. Whether inventory is high or low, the same thing is happening. Top producers continue to dominate while everyone else struggles.
This has everything to do with the activities of agents, and big areas of weakness in their approach.
What are the big mistakes agents are making? How do you refocus on what actually drives more listings? In this episode, I share 5 reasons why listing counts have gone down, and why it has nothing to do with the actual market.
Most of the new shiny objects that are promised to build your business are the very reasons why your business is going down. -Greg Harrelson
Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode
-Less branding, more production
There are so many things competing for our attention and taking away from what actually moves the needle. Where should our focus be if we want to keep closing deals?
-The danger of over-delegating
Our industry is obsessed with leverage, and with good reason - it makes us more efficient. But could we be losing deals because we’ve delegated too many things?
-Why internet lead gen isn’t working
Real estate agents are constantly buying online leads and they get disappointed when they don’t convert. Are the leads the problem or is it our lack of follow up?

Most real estate agents don’t want to hear this but, an abundance of leads does not equate to business growth. In fact, too many leads could be the reason for a decline in deals.
Getting a truckload of leads sounds great, but if they're not turning into real business, what's the point?

Entrepreneur, Preston Guy has cracked the code on turning those endless leads into real, profitable deals.

The lawsuits, litigation and legal concerns on the buyer side prove two things about our industry. The landscape for buyer’s agents is shifting, and unlike the listings side, agents in that space are heavily misunderstood.

How do we demonstrate our value? What do buyers care about? In this episode, I share strategies to showcase your value, and how to preserve and increase the buyer side of your business.
Buyers agents are important but they are misunderstood. -Greg Harrelson
