- 0:08session here today. Hope you guys are
- 0:10having a great day. You are in the right
- 0:13place if you are here for the live
- 0:17brainstorm. We are talking about how to
- 0:20build a real estate business that closes
- 0:23consistently and doesn't run your life.
- 0:26If you are into that, you are in the
- 0:28right place. Uh let's go ahead and get
- 0:31things started. Um my name is Stephanie

- 0:41Head on over to the chat. Give me a yes
- 0:44if we are good to go. I just want to
- 0:46make sure that um all systems are
- 0:48working here. Um and we've got about 45
- 0:51minutes of time together. So, if you
- 0:52have not yet, what you should be doing
- 0:55at this point is closing that office
- 0:56door. My kids are um home on early
- 0:59release today, so there's like a 50%
- 1:01chance one of them are going to bust
- 1:03through, but we should be good to go.
- 1:05Um, and turn off the notifications on
- 1:08your phone to give yourself a little bit
- 1:10of time to make sure that uh you can
- 1:13really focus on what we're doing here
- 1:15today. Thank you for taking a little bit
- 1:16of time to invest in your business um
- 1:19and really set yourself up for success
- 1:21as we really enter the second half of
- 1:24the year today. So, head on over to the
- 1:25chat, give me a yes if you can hear me,
- 1:27if we are all good. Um and and also
- 1:30while you're there, drop a yes in the
- 1:33chat if you have had a year where your
- 1:36income has felt completely unpredictable
- 1:39even though you are working constantly.
- 1:42We are all friends here. So, go ahead
- 1:44and drop it in. I want to make sure that
- 1:47um that's also going to tell me that you
- 1:48are sat, that you are ready to go. So,
- 1:51drop a yes in the chat if that sounds
- 1:53familiar. I've got Nancy, Brenda, Lydia,
- 1:55Allison. Okay, great. Uh Maria, yep,
- 1:59that's exactly why we are here today.
- 2:01And I promise by the time that we wrap
- 2:02up in about 45 minutes, you are going to
- 2:05know exactly what's causing that and
- 2:07what to build um so that you can fix
- 2:10this first, right? So, for those just
- 2:12joining, I'm Stephanie Luggo and I have
- 2:15been selling real estate in the Phoenix
- 2:16and Scottsdale area for 12 years and I'm
- 2:19still actively selling real estate right
- 2:21now alongside my husband Bryce. I also
- 2:24run the Market Authority Academy where I
- 2:26have uh coached over 800 agents across
- 2:29the US and Canada. So, everything that
- 2:32I'm going to share with you today is not
- 2:33stuff that's coming from a talking head
- 2:35person who's just here to like like sell
- 2:37coaching ideas. I'm here to actually
- 2:39show you what's working in my business
- 2:41and for the other agents who I'm working
- 2:43with across North America so that you
- 2:45can know that what we're going to be
- 2:46talking about is not just theory. This
- 2:48is stuff that's being actively tested in
- 2:50markets just like yours everywhere. So,
- 2:53and and quick thing just on that before
- 2:54we get into it. I had a YouTube video
- 2:56come across today with some really
- 2:58strong numbers from this week and it was
- 3:00called How I Make $400,000
- 3:04a year in real estate with these three
- 3:06systems. and it really popped off. And
- 3:09what struck me about that video wasn't
- 3:12like that it was getting a lot of views.
- 3:14I had so many agents direct messaging me
- 3:16and leaving comments and they were
- 3:18saying all the same thing like I need
- 3:20this this nobody ever showed me what
- 3:22these systems were and how they actually
- 3:24need to work. Um and and that's exactly
- 3:26why I'm here today and what I want to
- 3:28help you figure out as well. I'm not
- 3:29here to just give you more information.
- 3:31I want to give you the map. So, I have a
- 3:33couple of exercises prepared to walk us
- 3:36through those things together. Um, and
- 3:38I'm going to share my screen in just a
- 3:40minute. While I get set up, drop in the
- 3:43chat where you are selling real estate
- 3:45and how long you have been in the
- 3:47business. I want to know who's in the
- 3:49room. So, where you are and how long
- 3:51you've been selling. Go ahead and drop
- 3:53that in.
- 3:57And we're going to kick things off here.
- 3:58I see a few of you coming in and getting
- 4:00comfortable. So, you should have
- 4:02something prepared to write with
- 4:05taking notes. All right. Uh, let's see.
- 4:08Oh, here you all are. Jennifer, Southern
- 4:10New Hampshire, 13 plus years. All right.
- 4:12Allison, 13 years. Tri Cities,
- 4:13Washington. Right on. Nancy, California,

- 4:26Uh, Brenda, Georgia, eight years. Maria,
- 4:29South Texas, four years. Um, and TJ
- 4:32South Carolina a year and a half, Chad
- 4:35Toronto, nine years. What's really
- 4:36sticking out to me is we have some
- 4:39seasoned agents in this room, which I
- 4:42love to see. You guys are absolutely in
- 4:44the right place. Um, and for those who
- 4:47are hopping on right now, I want to make
- 4:49sure that this feels um feels different
- 4:51from anything that you've sat in before.
- 4:53So, can you um drop in the chat if this
- 4:56is the first of my trainings that you've
- 4:58been to or have you been to others that
- 5:00I've hosted? Um say first or returning,
- 5:04I guess, whatever makes sense. Okay,
- 5:05Lydia the first. Awesome. Okay, I I just
- 5:08want to make sure. Okay, second for
- 5:10Maria, returning TJ. Awesome. Good to
- 5:12see you guys. Allison first. Okay. Yeah,
- 5:14I'm seeing some new names and faces here
- 5:16for sure. Okay, great. Returning. You're
- 5:19the best. Oh, hi Britney Vic AC too
- 5:21long. Good to see your face, my friend.
- 5:23Same. Welcome. First first session.
- 5:25Awesome. Chad first. Love your YouTube
- 5:27content while walking the dog though.
- 5:29Right on. Okay, great. Yeah, I just want
- 5:31to make sure that this feels a little
- 5:32different from anything else that you've
- 5:33sat through. Um I'm not here to talk at
- 5:36you for 45 minutes. We're really here to
- 5:38work work through a couple of things
- 5:40together. And I want it to be useful for
- 5:42your specific situation, not just not
- 5:44just feel interesting and then not be
- 5:46able to do anything with it. So, what
- 5:49I'm going to show you what we do is
- 5:50exactly what we do with agents in the
- 5:52Market Authority Academy, which is the
- 5:53coaching program that I've been running
- 5:54for almost seven years and have had
- 5:57hundreds of agents across North America
- 5:59go through. And what we do in one
- 6:00sentence is we help producing agents who
- 6:03a agents who are already selling um get
- 6:05to the point of closing two to four
- 6:07deals a month from people that they
- 6:09already know by working 25 to 30 hours a
- 6:13week or less without cold outreach. So,
- 6:15like no cold calling, no door
- 6:16knockocking over here and without
- 6:18starting over every single month. That's
- 6:20that's the goal. So, today I want to
- 6:22show you exactly what's in the way of
- 6:24that for most agents. Um, so as I share
- 6:26my screen now, we're going to get into
- 6:28it. As I do that, share in the chat
- 6:31where does most of your business come
- 6:32from right now? Is it referrals? Is it
- 6:35open houses, team leads, social media,
- 6:38something else? Let me know in the chat
- 6:41so that I know that we're all in the
- 6:42right place.
- 6:45And I'm just sharing my screen here so
- 6:46that we can get started. And you guys
- 6:47are popping into the chat already.
- 6:49Referrals, socials, so social media
- 6:52referrals and open houses. Okay, great.
- 6:54SOI
- 6:55referrals, repeats, open houses. Okay.
- 6:58Inconsistent referrals for Britney. Got
- 7:00it. All right. You are all in the right
- 7:02place. Here's here's something that I
- 7:04want to name just from what I'm seeing
- 7:07here and especially since we have so
- 7:09many seasoned agents here today. Here's
- 7:11something that I want to name before we
- 7:12really get into the work. I talk to
- 7:14agents every single week across the US
- 7:17and Canada and I keep hearing these two
- 7:19things. The first one is a fear that
- 7:23what used to work does not work anymore.
- 7:26So like the market shifted. A lot of
- 7:28agents built their whole pipeline around
- 7:30things that only worked in a specific
- 7:32kind of market and now they feel like
- 7:34they're starting over. They're starting
- 7:36from scratch. They're realizing they
- 7:37have so many holes in their strategy or
- 7:39their skill set.
- 7:41The second thing that I keep hearing,
- 7:43and this is the one that really gets me,
- 7:44is how agents are doing all the things,
- 7:47right? Like I So many agents right now
- 7:48are working so much harder than they
- 7:50need to. They're working hard, they're
- 7:53staying busy, and they still feel like
- 7:54they're failing. And it's not because
- 7:57they aren't producing because a lot of
- 7:59these agents are selling homes, but it's
- 8:01because they're just measuring the wrong
- 8:02things. And so that because of that,
- 8:04they're doing the wrong things and then
- 8:06they're wondering why the results are
- 8:08not there. All right? So, if that sounds
- 8:10familiar to you guys, like drop a yes in
- 8:13the chat if that's hitting home for any
- 8:14of you. Um, because that feeling, that
- 8:19low level of dread, um, that sense that
- 8:22like nothing is really building or
- 8:23growing no matter how hard you push,
- 8:26that is not a talent problem. That
- 8:28doesn't mean that you're bad at real
- 8:29estate. Um, it's also not a market
- 8:32problem. It doesn't mean we're just in a
- 8:33down market. We need to wait it out.
- 8:35That is a structure problem. Okay? Okay.
- 8:37And I'm getting it. I'm getting a yes
- 8:39from Nancy, a way harder from Lydia.
- 8:41Yep. Yep. I get it. It's It's structure
- 8:45that is needed in your business. And
- 8:47what's cool is that's like super
- 8:48fixible. So, we're going to work on that
- 8:49today. So, you see, I'm sharing my
- 8:51screen now. I've got exercise number
- 8:53one. We got two exercises to go through.
- 8:55And I like this exercise a lot because
- 8:57um I feel like number one, this does a
- 8:59really good job of walking you guys
- 9:00through what we do in Market Authority
- 9:03um in in the program that I run. And it
- 9:06also does a really good job on helping
- 9:08us understand like where we need to be
- 9:09focusing on to get to the next level or
- 9:12to get out from where we need um or to
- 9:14get get on the path to having more
- 9:16structure. So I call it the three
- 9:18futures. Write something to grab with if
- 9:20you have not yet.
- 9:22What what I want us to look at is future
- 9:24number one. That's this green box. Okay?
- 9:26So like if we're looking at this green
- 9:28box here, this is where we want to be.
- 9:30and and take a minute cuz sometimes we
- 9:32don't get really clear on this, but
- 9:34picture your real estate career exactly
- 9:36the way that you want it to look. Maybe
- 9:38this happens in a year, maybe this
- 9:40happens in 3 years, maybe it happens in
- 9:42five, but ultimately we get there,
- 9:44right? So, and and this is not like the
- 9:46vague idea of success. I want you to be
- 9:48really really specific here because a
- 9:50lot of times we don't do that in real
- 9:51estate. So, tell me in the chat what
- 9:54this looks like. Are you closing three
- 9:56to four deals a month consistently?
- 9:58Maybe you're working 25 to 30 hours a
- 10:00week. Your pipeline doesn't disappear
- 10:03the second you stop pushing it. You're
- 10:06you can take a vacation and your
- 10:07business doesn't fall apart. Right? Like
- 10:10tell me what that looks like. How many
- 10:11deals are you closing a month and how
- 10:13many hours are you working a week? Okay.
- 10:17So, Allison, yes to everything you just
- 10:18said. That's perfect. And most agents
- 10:21say that this is like the magic number
- 10:23for them is they want to close two to
- 10:25four or five or six somewhere in there
- 10:27consistent deals per month working 30 to
- 10:3040 hours a week. So you can also just
- 10:32put a yes in the chat if that would be
- 10:33great.
- 10:38Something about the last thing I said in
- 10:39that 3 to five a month for Jennifer.
- 10:41Okay. Everyone else says yeah this all
- 10:43sounds great.
- 10:45What's cool about having that absolute
- 10:48predictability and working hours that
- 10:50make sense for a busy life, if I can
- 10:53tell you something personally about that
- 10:55last one, I'm a mom to two young kids. I
- 10:58have a six and a three-year-old at home.
- 11:00Okay? Um, we just got back from 5 weeks
- 11:04in Europe this summer with our kids. We
- 11:06traveled through Spain. We traveled
- 11:08through Ireland. We had these like slow
- 11:11mornings, these long dinners. And during
- 11:13those five weeks, we had multiple
- 11:15closings. We took a new listing active.
- 11:18We got a referral that turned into two
- 11:20transactions before we even landed back
- 11:22home. Like, we had stuff ready to go the
- 11:24moment we landed. Literally 3 days after
- 11:27we got here, we had a listing
- 11:29appointment and then got it listed and
- 11:30under contract within a week and a half,
- 11:32right? Like, these things didn't happen
- 11:34because we got lucky. It happened
- 11:36because we built something underneath
- 11:38our production years ago that doesn't
- 11:40require us to be physically present to
- 11:42keep running. So that's how we get to
- 11:44that point of being able to close that
- 11:45two to four deals a month or five to six
- 11:47deals a month working 30 hours a week.
- 11:50That's future number one. So like write
- 11:53this down, whatever that looks like for
- 11:54you if it's a little bit different. I'm
- 11:56going to keep this here because this
- 11:57just seems like this is working right
- 11:58now for us.
- 12:00But let's look at future number two. So,
- 12:03picture what your career looks like 12
- 12:05months from now if nothing changes,
- 12:07right? We have the same activities, the
- 12:09same consistency, the same feeling on
- 12:11Monday that you're just not quite sure
- 12:14where your next deal is coming from or
- 12:16what you need to be focusing on. You're
- 12:17just like surviving, right? Things are
- 12:19fine. Nothing is building. What does
- 12:22that feel like a year from now? Does
- 12:24that mean you have inconsistent closings
- 12:25and you're working 60 hours a week? Is
- 12:28that what's happening right now? like
- 12:30drop some of that in the chat so I can
- 12:32see where we're at, what that means for
- 12:33you right now.
- 12:46So, we'll call it inconsistent closings,
- 12:49burning out,
- 12:51but like we're selling homes, so a
- 12:53paycheck is coming in maybe just not as
- 12:55consistently. Is that fair to say?
- 13:04And these are always better when this is
- 13:06a two-way conversation. So, I really
- 13:07want to invite you to like dig into the
- 13:09chat, like get those fingers warmed up.
- 13:11Hearing a yes from Nancy, hearing a yes
- 13:13from Allison. Okay.
- 13:16Right. Uh, four one month, maybe zero
- 13:19next month, two the next month from
- 13:20Millie. Yeah, that's like classic,
- 13:22right? That's definitely something that
- 13:23we want to avoid because even when we're
- 13:25having those really high months, we
- 13:27can't even enjoy it because it's like,
- 13:28"Oh my gosh, where how am I going to do
- 13:30that again, right?
- 13:33No more fight orflight mode and
- 13:34dependent on my rental income to float
- 13:36hard times." Yeah.
- 13:38Zero this month to the next month. So
- 13:40that that inconsistent closings, burning
- 13:42out. Um how about like that just like
- 13:45we're getting paid but it's painful.
- 13:49Is that is that good?
- 13:52Okay, we're getting paid, but it's
- 13:54painful. Sure. All right. I don't want
- 13:57to spend too much time on that because
- 13:59like that's the that's the path if we
- 14:01don't change anything. That's why we're
- 14:02here to change that. Future number three
- 14:04though is this little red one. Okay. So,
- 14:06this little red one here, like things
- 14:09don't just stay the same, right? They
- 14:11quietly get worse.
- 14:14Not dramatically. Like nothing dramatic
- 14:16changes. There's just like a slow drift
- 14:17in the wrong d direction. We have a few
- 14:19less deals, a little more stress. We're
- 14:22still starting over after every month.
- 14:23We're not sure if this is actually
- 14:24working. Where does that leave you in 12
- 14:26months? Not going to ask you to say it
- 14:28out loud. I just want you to sit with it
- 14:29for a second.
- 14:31So, here's what I want you to notice.
- 14:33This line where we're at. This is where
- 14:36we are today. And I think most agents
- 14:40are way too busy thinking about how to
- 14:43stay
- 14:45in between the really bad outcome that
- 14:47we're trying to avoid and stay on track
- 14:50to where we're already on the path to
- 14:52hitting, right? We spend way too much
- 14:54time in this zone. But what we do in
- 14:57market authority is we make sure that we
- 14:59are constantly on the path to getting to
- 15:02that ideal future. And there are small
- 15:04things that we can be doing today to get
- 15:08us on the trajectory that will
- 15:10ultimately take us to where we want to
- 15:12be. But if we're not paying attention
- 15:14and we're not taking those small actions
- 15:16to build the structure and build the
- 15:17habits that take us there, then we're
- 15:19always going to be stuck somewhere in
- 15:21this realm. And a lot of times that's
- 15:23why we can be a very seasoned agent, but
- 15:25we feel like we've run the same business
- 15:27for the last 5 years. And ultimately,
- 15:30that's not going to be very gratifying
- 15:31for you at some point. One day you're
- 15:33going to wake up and realize like why
- 15:34have I done the exact same thing for the
- 15:36last 5 years without seeing a lot of
- 15:37growth. We want to see a lot of growth,
- 15:40even if that means like more time back,
- 15:41more money and savings, more
- 15:43consistency, something something real to
- 15:46stand on, right? And and I just think
- 15:48it's important that that we talk about
- 15:50this because what I want you to notice
- 15:52again is when we're spending our mental
- 15:53energy living between future two and
- 15:56future three over here, we're not
- 15:59actively building towards future one
- 16:01because we don't have a clear picture of
- 16:02what it requires or what that system
- 16:05underneath needs to look like to make it
- 16:07possible. So that's what we're here to
- 16:08change today. So any questions on this
- 16:12before we get into the how. Does this
- 16:14make sense? Does that kind of give you a
- 16:15little bit of sense of clarity on like
- 16:17like okay why we need to be changing
- 16:19this?
- 16:21Okay. Yeah. Okay. And Allison says, "I
- 16:25had a lot of life recently and I let
- 16:27business drift down." I think that's the
- 16:29whole thing cuz life is going to happen
- 16:31no matter what, right? Like things are
- 16:32never going to be perfectly um one step
- 16:36after the next. There's going to be
- 16:37stuff that happens that's unforeseen.
- 16:40And our structure is what allows us to
- 16:43weather those life events so that it
- 16:46doesn't completely force us to crumble
- 16:48and then have to start over once we
- 16:50finally get our head above water. So for
- 16:53me that experience was this is going to
- 16:55sound bad but my experience for that was
- 16:57having my second baby. And I don't know
- 16:59if anyone else here are parents but like
- 17:01for me going from one baby to two may as
- 17:03well have been going from 1 to 10. Like
- 17:05I was not prepared for how exponenti I
- 17:08thought I was busy before, but getting
- 17:10to that second child and having a
- 17:13toddler. I it took me like a year and a
- 17:15half to even be able to like look around
- 17:18and understand what I was trying to do
- 17:19for my life. I know, right? Okay,
- 17:21Britney's got me. Okay, great. And so it
- 17:23really taught me like like thank God we
- 17:26had the right structure and the right
- 17:27systems because the dip was so much more
- 17:30shallow, right? Like our our life
- 17:32changed and we pulled back. Absolutely.
- 17:35so that I could have like a postpartum
- 17:37leave like I could have like what do you
- 17:39call it like a maternity leave and and
- 17:40actually have a slow year to be home
- 17:42with both kids. Um but the difference
- 17:44was it it wasn't like we turned off the
- 17:46faucet. There was a small pull back and
- 17:49then our push forward was even stronger
- 17:51because we had a foundation and we were
- 17:53so much more confident in that. So
- 17:57yeah, exactly. And Allison says, "I'm
- 17:59caring for my elderly mom. She's like a
- 18:012-year-old." Absolutely. like it doesn't
- 18:03even have to just be a parent thing. Um
- 18:05but sometimes in life we are we are
- 18:07dealt responsibilities that are going to
- 18:09shake us up. So how do we build a
- 18:12business that allows us to sustain in
- 18:14both right in both domains? Um and and
- 18:17that's what I want to talk to you. So so
- 18:19what I want to do is is start our next
- 18:21exercise which is the triangle exercise.
- 18:24So this is the map that really
- 18:26illustrates the system in in a strong
- 18:28way I think. Um, and we we've taken that
- 18:31future and I already have it here ready
- 18:32for us. This is the ideal future of like
- 18:35where we want to be. So, no matter what
- 18:37life is throwing at us, we want that
- 18:39sense of control. We want that sense of
- 18:41consistency of knowing that things are
- 18:42growing. We're closing two to four deals
- 18:44a month or more, working um 30 hours a
- 18:47week or less. That's the ideal outcome.
- 18:50no matter what's going on because that's
- 18:52going to allow us the mental bandwidth
- 18:54we need to deal with the life stuff
- 18:57knowing that business is taken care of
- 18:59too. We can do both if we have the right
- 19:01structure. So this is the framework that
- 19:03we use inside market authority. Um and
- 19:05and I like this exercise again because
- 19:07it just illustrates why these are the
- 19:09three systems that every single real
- 19:11estate business needs if you're going to
- 19:13have that consistency, control, and
- 19:15predictability. Um, and it's the most
- 19:17useful thing that I've been able to help
- 19:19build for for helping real estate agents
- 19:21understand what they need to work on and
- 19:23why. So, the center of the triangle here
- 19:26is your outcome.
- 19:28And we don't again want to just be
- 19:31closing a lot of deals. We're closing
- 19:32consistency or consistently. We're
- 19:35closing from relationships, from
- 19:37referrals, and we're not grinding
- 19:39ourselves into the ground to do it.
- 19:41Okay, we've agreed on this. Around that
- 19:43outcome, we have three sides of the
- 19:45triangle. And what I want to do is go
- 19:47through each of the three and help you
- 19:49understand where your gaps are because
- 19:51every agent I've ever worked with has
- 19:53gaps in at least two of the sides. So,
- 19:55we're going to do one at a time. I don't
- 19:56want you jumping ahead. We're doing one
- 19:58at a time. And as we go through, I'm
- 20:01going to ask yourself to rate them. So,
- 20:03be ready, pay attention with me, and
- 20:04take down notes if you want to follow
- 20:06along or dig in deeper on any of these
- 20:08areas. But, I'm going to be asking you
- 20:10to rate yourself green if it's running
- 20:12well and producing consistent results.
- 20:15yellow if it's hit or miss or red if
- 20:17it's basically not happening right now.
- 20:19Okay, so I'll tell you when to drop that
- 20:21into the chat. You guys ready?
- 20:24We're gonna start with the first side of
- 20:25the triangle.
- 20:29Hopefully I can do this. Yep. Okay.
- 20:33So, the first side is zero effort sales.
- 20:37So, this system is going to solve that
- 20:39problem of I don't know what to say or
- 20:42who to reach out to without feeling
- 20:44salesy. So, I just don't drop a yes in
- 20:46the chat if you have felt that this
- 20:48year.
- 20:50SMARK is weird, right? Like some people
- 20:53are having fun, some people are not. It
- 20:55can kind of throw us for a loop. And I'm
- 20:57seeing a lot of yeses and a y in the
- 21:00chat. So, it sounds like we're all on
- 21:02the same page. So, so the honest truth
- 21:05about most agents marketing is that
- 21:07they're either doing too much of the
- 21:08wrong things or nothing at all because
- 21:10it feels overwhelming or salesy.
- 21:13All right? Both are totally killing your
- 21:15pipeline. I talk to agents every single
- 21:18week who tell me that they know they
- 21:19should be reaching out to their past
- 21:21clients, for example, but they don't
- 21:22know what to say, so they just don't.
- 21:24And then months go by or a year goes by
- 21:27and someone they closed with three years
- 21:29ago refers their neighbor to another
- 21:30agent or they list with another agent
- 21:33and it's not because that they didn't
- 21:34like their realtor, they didn't like
- 21:36you. It's just because they they forgot
- 21:38about you, right? Or they didn't know
- 21:39how to refer you confidently.
- 21:42That is not a motivation problem on
- 21:44anyone's part. This is a system problem.
- 21:46So the agents who are getting consistent
- 21:48referrals without feeling salesy have
- 21:50three things running. What we do first
- 21:52is we do the cut. So the cut is looking
- 21:55at like, okay, what are we doing that we
- 21:57need to stop that's actually harming our
- 21:59pipeline. Okay, the first thing that I
- 22:02like to do with agents when I'm working
- 22:04with them is is we pull your numbers and
- 22:06we look at exactly what is producing and
- 22:08what is not. Most agents think they know
- 22:11where their best deals are coming from,
- 22:13but when they actually look at the data,
- 22:15they're always they're almost always
- 22:16surprised because something they've been
- 22:18spending time on is not paying them. And
- 22:20something they've been ignoring is their
- 22:22best lead source. I know this because it
- 22:25happened to me. And when I fixed this, I
- 22:27was able to 4x my income within 12
- 22:30months. This happened back in 2019. And
- 22:32I was shocked at how quickly we saw a
- 22:36complete pivot in our business. So the
- 22:388020 cut gives you immediate clarity on
- 22:42where to focus and what to stop doing
- 22:44immediately and it gives you that
- 22:45permission to stop doing things that
- 22:47just like are not working well. So that
- 22:49is a really helpful place to start and
- 22:51imagine like what would you be able to
- 22:53do with that time if you got to stop 80%
- 22:56of the stuff that was not actually
- 22:58paying you. It would feel really
- 22:59freeing, right? You'd be like, "Okay,
- 23:00great. Now now that I know I can just
- 23:02focus on this stuff, I'm going to do it
- 23:04and I'm going to do it really well."
- 23:05Right? So that leads us to the second
- 23:08part which is ideal clients. Once we
- 23:11know what's working, then you need to
- 23:14know exactly who you're talking to.
- 23:16Okay? So when you know which clients and
- 23:19which lead sources to focus on,
- 23:22you need to know who you're talking to,
- 23:23like who that client actually is,
- 23:26what you need to say, and how often you
- 23:29need to say it.
- 23:31Because like how many people have gotten
- 23:32that like, oh, call your spear. Call
- 23:34your sphere advice. But then you're
- 23:36like, okay, how do I call them? Is
- 23:38texting okay? What should I say? I
- 23:40haven't talked to this person in 3
- 23:41years. Does this person count? Actually,
- 23:44this feels really overwhelming. I'm just
- 23:46going to doom scroll. Okay, we can't do
- 23:48that. That's not a plan. [laughter]
- 23:50Okay, we need to know exactly who you're
- 23:54talking to, what you're saying, and
- 23:56when. And if you're reaching out to
- 23:58everyone and hoping someone is ready,
- 24:01you're going to feel like you're
- 24:02chasing.
- 24:03And we can't do that. That's that's not
- 24:05going to work in this market. We need to
- 24:07get really specific on who your ideal
- 24:09client actually is so that your outreach
- 24:12feels natural and your conversation goes
- 24:14somewhere. And that's where we get
- 24:16confidence and momentum. [snorts] Cuz
- 24:19how many of you feel like if I just had
- 24:20the motivation, if I just felt like in
- 24:22the right mood, I would be unstoppable.
- 24:26but instead we we go with Britney to
- 24:28Starbucks, right? What we need to do is
- 24:31have that confidence. And this is a a
- 24:34key part of that zero effort sales
- 24:35because when we have confidence and we
- 24:38know what to say and we know it's going
- 24:39to work, that is going to feel like no
- 24:42effort, right? It's not like we're not
- 24:44working, but it's going to feel
- 24:46effortless, which means you can stay way
- 24:48more consistent with it. So, that leads
- 24:51us to the last part. We know what to do.
- 24:53We know who we're speaking to. we know
- 24:55what to say. That knowing what to say
- 24:57piece is really important. So that
- 24:59brings us to magnetic messaging, right?
- 25:02So once you know who you're talking to,
- 25:05we need to build a simple marketing
- 25:07approach that speaks directly to that
- 25:09person and activates them so that your
- 25:12warmest clients are staying top of mind
- 25:14and they reach out to you as soon as
- 25:16they're ready to make a move. Instead of
- 25:19you chasing people who aren't ready, the
- 25:21right people start coming to you. Okay.
- 25:23Now, if I had to guess in this room,
- 25:25we're doing a lot of chasing in 2026.
- 25:28Yes.
- 25:30Yes. Everything feels really hard.
- 25:33Everything feels like we got to push. We
- 25:34got a lot of clients waiting in the
- 25:36wings. We got a lot of clients waiting
- 25:37on the fence.
- 25:40Your messaging in 2026 needs to be
- 25:44activating people. If you are not
- 25:47activating people, you are leaving them
- 25:49in a place of overwhelm. If you are
- 25:52leaving them in a place of overwhelm,
- 25:54they are never going to take the next
- 25:56step with you because they don't have
- 25:58confidence in their own moves because
- 26:00you don't have confidence in how to get
- 26:02direct them in their moves. Okay.
- 26:05Yeah. The chat is telling me I've struck
- 26:08a nerve. Okay. So, this is really
- 26:11important. Zero effort sales has to have
- 26:13these three things. We need to know what
- 26:1520% is giving us the 80% of the results.
- 26:19We need to know who our ideal clients
- 26:21are. meaning who's actually moving in
- 26:23this market. There's only a specific
- 26:25subsect of people who are having a lot
- 26:27of fun in this market right now.
- 26:29Everyone else is feeling very like icky.
- 26:31Okay? And we have to know what to say to
- 26:35to activate them. Now, one of our
- 26:37members recently sent an email to her
- 26:40soi after months of not touching them,
- 26:42and she got a referral back within the
- 26:45same week that led to three subsequent
- 26:47deals within 30 days. Okay? Okay. And
- 26:50it's not because she did anything
- 26:52complicated. It's because she showed up
- 26:54for the people who already knew her.
- 26:55That's the whole system. It's just when
- 26:57you know what to say, you actually do it
- 26:58and you actually follow it. So these
- 27:01three things together are what create
- 27:02those referrals that come in without you
- 27:04having to chase them. So we have no cold
- 27:05outreach. We don't feel salesy and it
- 27:08doesn't fall apart the second you stop
- 27:09pushing. So with all that, I want you to
- 27:12rate yourself. Red, green, yellow. Green
- 27:16meaning it's mostly in place. It's all
- 27:18good. Yellow hit or miss. Red like break
- 27:22glass in case of emergency. Throw it
- 27:24into the chat. Let me know who we got.
- 27:27All right, we got yellow for Maria.
- 27:30A little bit of all of it. Okay,
- 27:32Jessica, red, yellow, orange. Okay.
- 27:38All right. So, we're there's there's
- 27:41room for improvement, let's say. Okay.
- 27:43Always room for improvement. I want you
- 27:45to write that down. So, zero effort
- 27:48sales and then you're you're waiting for
- 27:50it. Let's go on to the next.
- 27:53Amber is a color of Ingrid's energy. Got
- 27:56it. Okay.
- 27:58Forgive me. I had to do it. So, the
- 28:00second system that we're going to look
- 28:02at is the million-doll client journey.
- 28:05Okay. This is this comes next.
- 28:08So, this is going to solve that problem
- 28:10of every transaction feels like I'm
- 28:12starting from scratch and it's taking up
- 28:15the time that I need to find the next
- 28:16client.
- 28:18How many of you like, tell me if this
- 28:20sounds familiar. You get a deal and
- 28:22you're like [laughter]
- 28:24like don't drop it. You don't want to
- 28:25drop it. And so, you ignore all of your
- 28:27other marketing. And that is what leads
- 28:29to the two closings in one month, zero
- 28:32for two months, two closings for one
- 28:35month, zero for two months. It's
- 28:36exhausting. And this is the the biggest
- 28:39thing that leads to burnout. Okay, let
- 28:41me know if like give me a yes in the
- 28:42chat if this sounds familiar. This is
- 28:45the side of the triangle, too, that
- 28:47produces the most immediate results when
- 28:49you fix it because you already have
- 28:53clients. You just need to activate
- 28:54what's already sitting in those
- 28:56relationships. So, when we put this into
- 28:58place, this is where we see like an
- 29:00immediate turnaround. So
- 29:03again,
- 29:04we have three parts of this system.
- 29:07What we want to make sure that we're
- 29:09doing is is fixing this.
- 29:13When you're super focused on keeping the
- 29:15deal together, you're not thinking about
- 29:17what comes next. I'm trying to explain
- 29:19like why this happens. You're focused on
- 29:21the deal. You're not focused on what
- 29:23comes next. The closing happens. You're
- 29:26relieved. You cash in a check.
- 29:29They move on.
- 29:32And the client who just had the best
- 29:33real estate experience with you never
- 29:35hears from that agent again.
- 29:39Six months later, someone asks that
- 29:41client if they know a good agent and
- 29:42they think, "Oh, what was her name
- 29:44again?" [sighs and snorts]
- 29:46Or they they just don't know if you're
- 29:47still in the business cuz it's been 6
- 29:49months and they haven't heard anything
- 29:50from you. Right? So that referral
- 29:52doesn't come from the transaction. It
- 29:54comes from the experience around the
- 29:56transaction. And most agents have never
- 29:59designed this experience on purpose. So
- 30:01the million-dollar client journey is
- 30:02what fixes that. So we have to start
- 30:05with our no fail follow-up system. This
- 30:06is first.
- 30:08Our no fail follow-up system means that
- 30:11every touch point from the first
- 30:13conversation is designed to keep your
- 30:16clients moving forward with confidence
- 30:18so that your warmest leads are not
- 30:20sitting on the fence and your pipeline
- 30:21stays full even when the market gets
- 30:23slow.
- 30:25So, what we do with your no fail
- 30:26follow-up system is we give you the
- 30:28actual words so that you're never
- 30:29staring at a blank screen wondering what
- 30:31to say next. One or two follow-up saying
- 30:34just checking in, were you ready to move
- 30:36forward? Is not going to do it in 2026.
- 30:39You have to have a very specific
- 30:41follow-up approach that's going to keep
- 30:43people moving rather than stall out and
- 30:45staying on the fence after their first
- 30:47contact from you. All right.
- 30:51Then we need to get them to the actual
- 30:52transaction phase and we need to close
- 30:54them. Okay, you are probably amazing at
- 30:58the transaction phase, right? Like how
- 31:00many of you feel like I've got it? Like
- 31:02once I'm in the transaction, like you
- 31:05know, we we got to go and I'm amazing at
- 31:07the actual transaction. I can do this
- 31:09like the back of my hand, right?
- 31:11Especially since we have so many
- 31:12seasoned agents on the call. This is not
- 31:13the problem. The problem happens when we
- 31:16close and we ghost them, right? So, we
- 31:19maybe even give them an amazing closing
- 31:21gift. Maybe we have the uh maybe we have
- 31:24the guts to ask for a review and then we
- 31:28don't really have a solid follow-up
- 31:29approach there. There is a specific
- 31:31moment in every closing where the
- 31:34referral ask is natural, warm, and
- 31:36almost always gets a yes. But most
- 31:39agents just never find it because
- 31:41they're not looking for it. So, what we
- 31:43do is we give you a plan for staying in
- 31:45touch after the closing so that the
- 31:47referrals actually come without you
- 31:49having to awkwardly ask for business.
- 31:51Like, who do you know who's making a
- 31:52move? Remember me for your referrals? We
- 31:55don't want to do that. Like, if we feel
- 31:57that way, we're not going to do it. And
- 31:58it's not going to stay consistent. It
- 32:00has to feel organic. It has to feel
- 32:02natural. It has to feel serviceminded,
- 32:04right?
- 32:06So, what we do is is we give you that
- 32:07plan so that we can get you to our goal,
- 32:10which is two to five referrals within
- 32:12two years of every closing from clients
- 32:14who already love you.
- 32:17How would your business change if you
- 32:18were getting two to five referrals
- 32:19within two years of every closing of
- 32:22people who are actually making moves?
- 32:26You'd never have another lead problem.
- 32:29You'd be consistent in any market. We
- 32:32could go on vacation
- 32:34because we know we're going to get paid
- 32:35at the end, right?
- 32:37And people are going to honor your
- 32:39boundaries.
- 32:42So, we want to get those two to five
- 32:43referrals within two years of every
- 32:45closing from clients who already love
- 32:47you. Okay? And that's going to tie back
- 32:49into the first side, which was zero
- 32:51effort sales. And those things work in
- 32:54harmony because they are in alignment
- 32:56with each other.
- 32:59The last part of this is our no stress
- 33:01text stack.
- 33:03Because when we're following up
- 33:05consistently, we're increasing our lead
- 33:07our our client volume because we're
- 33:09getting more referrals and we're staying
- 33:10in touch after the sale. We need a
- 33:13simple CRM and tool setup that runs your
- 33:17client journey without you holding it
- 33:19all together in your head.
- 33:21That way, your business doesn't depend
- 33:23on your memory. Okay? So, like one of
- 33:25our members just finished her entire
- 33:27client journey from the first showing
- 33:29all the way through post the postc close
- 33:31follow-up. And she said that for the
- 33:33first time she actually knows what's
- 33:34happening at every stage, not because
- 33:36it's part of muscle memory because she's
- 33:38actually put it intentionally into a
- 33:40process that she can follow, right? She
- 33:44always knows what she's doing next.
- 33:45She's not spending time trying to figure
- 33:46out where she left off and what she
- 33:48needs to do next. And she knows what's
- 33:51coming after the closing. That clarity
- 33:53alone is going is going to change how
- 33:55you show up for your clients, right? So,
- 33:58all three of these pieces need to be in
- 34:00place. I want you to rate yourself on
- 34:02this. Green meaning you've got it dialed
- 34:04in. Yellow meaning it's hit or miss. Red
- 34:08meaning it's [clears throat] totally
- 34:10missing. We need to fix that.
- 34:14Lots of yellows. We got an orange. Okay.
- 34:19Can we see how this is causing you a
- 34:21problem in 2026?
- 34:25Greenish more than yellow for Wanda.
- 34:29Okay.
- 34:32And can we see if we had this super
- 34:34dialed in? This already helps like 50%
- 34:36of your issues.
- 34:40Yeah.
- 34:42So, there's still one more side to the
- 34:44triangle
- 34:45cuz once we know what to do each day to
- 34:47bring in clients with absolute with
- 34:49absolute confidence, we know exactly
- 34:52what to do each day. Those clients are
- 34:53coming in and we're closing those
- 34:57clients and getting more referrals from
- 34:58those clients and we have the right tech
- 35:00in place to fulfill the promise that we
- 35:03made them.
- 35:05Now, we just have to build that into
- 35:07your time management, which is knowing
- 35:09what to do each day.
- 35:12Now, this comes last. Most agents think
- 35:15that their problem is time management.
- 35:17And they think, "If I just had a
- 35:19schedule, if I just had a better
- 35:20routine, I'd get all the stuff done."
- 35:23But again, that's not quite as simple as
- 35:24that because you're already spending
- 35:26time on 80% of things that you should
- 35:29not be doing. And if you try to schedule
- 35:32those in, you're still wasting time on
- 35:34the wrong stuff. If you're trying to
- 35:37automate and if you're trying to start
- 35:38over after every sale and things are
- 35:40just falling through the cracks, it
- 35:41doesn't matter how dialed in your
- 35:43routines are going to be, you're still
- 35:45going to have a lot of inconsistencies
- 35:46there. So, we have to take care of the
- 35:48first two systems first and then tie
- 35:50everything to together with the third.
- 35:53Okay?
- 35:55So, the problem that this solves is I
- 35:57don't know what to focus on each day and
- 35:58by Friday I can't tell you what actually
- 36:00moved my pipeline forward.
- 36:02This is what we have to fix. This is
- 36:04time management. Okay. So, the way that
- 36:06we do things and
- 36:09I see this pattern constantly, right?
- 36:11Like Monday morning, phone comes off the
- 36:13charger, you're checking your messages,
- 36:15you check Instagram, an hour goes by,
- 36:18now it's 10:00 a.m. and the day is
- 36:19already just reacting to other people's
- 36:21problems, maybe you get some admin done,
- 36:24maybe you have a showing, some content
- 36:26hopefully gets posted, and then there's
- 36:29just like nothing is really getting done
- 36:31to grow the business by the end of the
- 36:33week, right? It's not necessarily a
- 36:35discipline problem. It's It's definitely
- 36:38structure. This is definitely a
- 36:39structure problem. And I've got you guys
- 36:41in the chat saying, "Yes, 100%.
- 36:43Exactly." Okay, we're all on the same
- 36:44page there. And here's what makes it
- 36:46worse. Being a real estate agent is
- 36:49actually kind of hard because most
- 36:51agents feel like everything is urgent. I
- 36:53think that's one of the hardest parts of
- 36:54real estate. Everything feels urgent.
- 36:57Everything feels important. So agents
- 36:59will do whatever feels the most urgent
- 37:01or like obvious right at that moment.
- 37:05And because everything feels urgent,
- 37:08nothing is actually moving forward. And
- 37:11you end the week exhausted, not quite
- 37:13sure what you actually accomplished,
- 37:15right? So that's what we need to fix
- 37:17here.
- 37:19When your week has a shape to it before
- 37:21it even begins, and when you know what
- 37:24this week is for, what this month is
- 37:26building towards, and what the quarter
- 37:28of the year is supposed to look like,
- 37:30everything changes. You're back in the
- 37:32driver's seat of of the car of the
- 37:34business because you're doing the right
- 37:36things at the right time, and nothing's
- 37:37going to sneak up on you. So, we've got
- 37:38the three things that make this work.
- 37:41The first one is no hustle power hour.
- 37:45We have to start our day with one
- 37:48focused hour a day on the single most
- 37:50important activity. This is just one
- 37:52hour. And I ask my agents, I say, "Can
- 37:55you give me one hour a day to move your
- 37:58business forward?" And I would ask you
- 38:00that, "Can you give one hour a day, four
- 38:02or five days a week?"
- 38:04And you're getting the stuff done before
- 38:06anything reactive gets a chance to eat
- 38:08into your morning. The agents who do
- 38:11this consistently are the ones who look
- 38:13back in 90 days and cannot believe how
- 38:16much has built up. I was just talking to
- 38:18an agent on our coaching call this week
- 38:21and he was like, "I have surpassed last
- 38:25year was my best year ever and I have
- 38:26surpassed what I did last year by this
- 38:30summer." Like he's already ahead of his
- 38:32goal. And he's like, "I don't know what
- 38:34I did." And I was like, "What do you
- 38:36mean you don't know what you did? You've
- 38:38been focusing [laughter]
- 38:39on your prospecting and your power hour
- 38:42and we made it so simple that it feels
- 38:44effortless. It feels easy and it feels
- 38:46super obvious what to do each day. And
- 38:49so you've been really consistent with it
- 38:50and you're bringing in the right clients
- 38:52who are actually making moves in this
- 38:53market.
- 38:55That has to be in place. And that alone
- 38:57is going to help you feel so much better
- 38:59knowing like what needs to get done and
- 39:02how you know when you're finished
- 39:04because that's the biggest thing. What
- 39:05are we measuring? What are we getting
- 39:06finished?
- 39:08But it's not that simple every day. And
- 39:10I will be the first one to admit that
- 39:12because there are some days that abs
- 39:14absolutely blow up in your face and some
- 39:17days where we've got nothing but time.
- 39:18So we call those floor and ceiling days.
- 39:20That's the second part of this. There's
- 39:22two types of days with two different
- 39:24purposes. Okay? And you have to have a
- 39:26schedule ready for each. Your floor day
- 39:29is going to protect your pipeline
- 39:30minimum. These are like the
- 39:32non-negotiables that keep things moving
- 39:35no matter what.
- 39:37Ceiling days are for growth, the bigger
- 39:39activities that build momentum over
- 39:40time. Okay? You have to know which one
- 39:43today is before you open your laptop. So
- 39:46your floor day is when the kids are sick
- 39:48home from school, surprise, everyone
- 39:50wakes up with a fever. This is a very
- 39:52personal experience of mine. And you
- 39:55have to make sure that even if you only
- 39:57have like 15 or 20 minutes to get the
- 39:59right stuff done that day, you know what
- 40:01you need to get done. So, you get that
- 40:03that one chunk of time done and the rest
- 40:05of your time you're taking care of
- 40:07business, what's happening at home.
- 40:08Okay.
- 40:10The ceiling day is one of those days
- 40:12where you've got nothing but time.
- 40:14[clears throat] Have you ever had one of
- 40:15those days where you're like, "Oh my
- 40:16gosh, a free day. I have so much time."
- 40:19And then you're like, "Oh my god, but I
- 40:21have so much time." And then you spend 3
- 40:23hours trying to figure out what to do
- 40:26and it goes nowhere, right? Like, we do
- 40:29not want to be in that position. We want
- 40:30to know how to make the most of a day so
- 40:33that we can end it feeling like we did
- 40:36the right thing. Okay,
- 40:38[snorts] so that's our floor and ceiling
- 40:40days.
- 40:42And finally, we have the actual business
- 40:44rhythm.
- 40:46And this is a separate thing. The
- 40:48business rhythm is a separate thing.
- 40:50This is your weekly, monthly, and
- 40:51quarterly planning routine.
- 40:54So power hours are what are happening in
- 40:57the beginning of the day. Floor and
- 40:59ceiling days are the type of day. So
- 41:01like how we're going to fit in the power
- 41:02hours. Your business rhythm is what's
- 41:04happening on a monthly and a quarterly
- 41:07basis. This is what actually gives you
- 41:10your business back.
- 41:13So we have a Friday routine for example
- 41:15that closes out your week so that Monday
- 41:18never feels like you're starting from
- 41:20scratch.
- 41:21We do monthly planning together on our
- 41:23coaching calls and market authority
- 41:24academy so that you always know what the
- 41:27next month is building towards.
- 41:29And every quarter we do a full business
- 41:31planning session so nothing is sneaking
- 41:33up on you and you can actually see
- 41:35whether you're moving towards the goals
- 41:37you set.
- 41:39So one of our one of our market
- 41:40authority members just said something
- 41:42recently that I keep thinking about.
- 41:43She's in the middle of her busiest
- 41:45season ever. LA this was another
- 41:47situation where last year was the best
- 41:49year ever. this year she's going to
- 41:50surpass that. Um, and in her busiest
- 41:54season ever, she's way exceeding her
- 41:56goals that she set for herself for this
- 41:58year. And she said that all of the work
- 42:00that she did on her processes and
- 42:02routines is paying off because she has
- 42:04no time to think anymore. She just needs
- 42:07to get it done. And she feels like it's
- 42:09a relief because she doesn't have to
- 42:11think. She doesn't have to obsess about
- 42:14whether or not she's doing the right
- 42:15things at the right time. She's just
- 42:17following the process she's already put
- 42:19in place. The thinking has already
- 42:21happened. Now we're just running the
- 42:23business in the right rhythm. Right?
- 42:24[clears throat] That's the goal.
- 42:27So rate yourself here. Red, yellow,
- 42:29green on system number three of knowing
- 42:31what to do each day.
- 42:35Got a red from Lydia, yellow from
- 42:36Jessica,
- 42:38red from Allison. Okay. [clears throat]
- 42:45Lots of yellows.
- 42:47And I want you guys to look around,
- 42:49right? Like a lot of you are in the same
- 42:51boat here.
- 42:53At least I can admit it. That's kind of
- 42:55my point, right? Like we're we're a lot
- 42:57of us are in the same boat here in the
- 42:58chat. And you may have been feeling
- 43:01really down on yourself before coming to
- 43:03this or before registering to this
- 43:05training. But I want you to look around
- 43:07and realize that there's a lot of other
- 43:08agents who are doing really good things
- 43:10this year, but who are still feeling the
- 43:12same way and are feeling a lot of the
- 43:14same challenges. All right. And it's
- 43:16truly because like nobody has shown you
- 43:18this path, this map, because if you had
- 43:21these pieces, would you feel different
- 43:24in your business? Would you have more
- 43:25confidence in your ratings? Would more
- 43:27of these be green? And what we're doing
- 43:29in market authority is consistently
- 43:31moving these up to green each one
- 43:33[clears throat] at a time. So like I
- 43:35would ask you this now, looking at your
- 43:36three ratings, and hopefully you wrote
- 43:38these down,
- 43:40green, yellow, red, whatever across all
- 43:42three sides. Tell me in the chat right
- 43:44now, what is the one thing that if you
- 43:46fixed it, it would change how your week
- 43:48feels almost immediately. Like what's
- 43:50the one thing here? Not the most urgent,
- 43:52but the one that would give you the most
- 43:54relief.
- 43:56Just curious.
- 44:01Just systems across the board for Chad.
- 44:03[laughter] Okay.
- 44:05All right.
- 44:06Is there one side of the triangle
- 44:08specifically that you're like, I need
- 44:09the zero effort sales or I need the time
- 44:12management or I need the million-dollar
- 44:14client journey. Okay, Peter's got the
- 44:16million dollar client journey. Allison,
- 44:18power hour. Brenda, the follow-up
- 44:20system. Right on. Okay, Jessica, zero
- 44:22effort sales.
- 44:24I'm like, how does that translate into
- 44:26into
- 44:27a return in your business? Does that
- 44:30mean you're getting three more deals a
- 44:32year for maybe you're getting 8K in
- 44:34commission for each one? Is that like
- 44:36$24,000 that you could be increasing
- 44:38next year or more? Like we have to think
- 44:41about it. We we do have to think about
- 44:42that in terms of what we're leaving on
- 44:44the table, right? Because not having
- 44:46that is costing you right now, which is
- 44:48why I like sharing this because it's one
- 44:50thing to share like the path. It's the
- 44:52other it's the other for you to
- 44:54understand like how this actually
- 44:55applies to your outcome right now.
- 44:59Most of you are yellow or red across all
- 45:01three.
- 45:05Most of you are yellow or red across all
- 45:07three. And I want to name something
- 45:09about that.
- 45:11Nobody handed you this exact map when
- 45:13you got your license.
- 45:15And some of you have gone a decade like
- 45:17this repeating the same year, right?
- 45:20Nobody handed it to you at year three or
- 45:23year five or at year 10 either. You were
- 45:26told to go figure it out and you did cuz
- 45:29you're still here. But it's just without
- 45:32anything holding it together underneath
- 45:34it all. Right? And that's why it still
- 45:36feels like you're pushing everything
- 45:37manually every single day. So that's
- 45:39what we're here to change. Okay? So, I
- 45:43want to talk to you about what it
- 45:44actually looks like to build this
- 45:46because understanding this triangle is
- 45:48one thing.
- 45:51And having someone walk alongside you
- 45:53while you build it is something
- 45:54completely different because you might
- 45:55be looking at this and you're like,
- 45:56"Yeah, this makes perfect sense. Don't
- 45:58know where I'd start. [laughter] Don't
- 46:00know how to begin." That's what I do
- 46:03every single day with agents. I have a
- 46:05program called the Market Authority
- 46:07Academy.
- 46:08And I want to be really clear about what
- 46:10it is and what it isn't. Because
- 46:11sometimes I'd talk to agents and they're
- 46:13like, "I have no idea what you're talk
- 46:14what you really do. I see your YouTube
- 46:15videos. I've been to your trainings, but
- 46:17like I don't know what it is that you
- 46:18actually do." So, in Market Authority,
- 46:21it is not one of those courses where you
- 46:23watch it alone. You're going through the
- 46:24modules and then you forget about it.
- 46:26It's also not a portal full of videos
- 46:28that feel overwhelming before you even
- 46:30start. It is a hands-on coaching program
- 46:33where we're building these three systems
- 46:34together with your specific situation,
- 46:37your specific market, and your specific
- 46:40database over 6 months.
- 46:43So, here's what that looks like in
- 46:44practice. Twice a week, I'm showing up
- 46:47live and we're working together. So,
- 46:48Tuesday, we focus a lot on
- 46:50implementation. And this is what makes
- 46:51it so different from other programs. We
- 46:53are actually building things together,
- 46:55not just talking about them. So, if you
- 46:58need to set up your CRM, we set it up.
- 47:01If you need to write your follow-up
- 47:02sequence, we're going to write it
- 47:03together there on the call. If you need
- 47:05to map out your database marketing plan,
- 47:07we're doing it together.
- 47:09Thursday is open coaching. You bring
- 47:11whatever you're stuck on, whatever isn't
- 47:13working, whatever you're overthinking,
- 47:15and we work through it in real time.
- 47:18Every tool, template, and script in the
- 47:21program is ready to implement
- 47:22plug-and-play. all of this. I've already
- 47:25figured out the best way to do this.
- 47:27I've already figured out the best no
- 47:29fail follow-up system. I've already
- 47:30figured out the best way to leverage a
- 47:31CRM for that. I've already dialed in all
- 47:34the different types of routines that you
- 47:36might have in your business. Whether
- 47:37you're a part-time agent, whether you're
- 47:39full-time, whether you got nothing but
- 47:41time, or whether you have no time at
- 47:43all, I've already figured out the best
- 47:44way to do it. And so what I do is like
- 47:49nothing I tell you, nothing we do is
- 47:52stuff where I'm telling you to go do it
- 47:53and then figure it out on your own. I'm
- 47:54giving you the exact process and
- 47:57resource that you need to get it done.
- 48:00That's what makes this different from
- 48:01every other program that just gives you
- 48:03great information and then leaves you
- 48:04alone to figure it out. We don't do
- 48:05things that way. We give you a full
- 48:07business to full business in a box. And
- 48:10here's what I want you to know about the
- 48:12results. The agents right now who are in
- 48:15market authority academy are not like
- 48:17outliers.
- 48:19We have that one who sent an email to
- 48:21our database after months of silence and
- 48:23had multiple transactions from one
- 48:25referral within one week. Okay, that's
- 48:27the kind of stuff that we see all the
- 48:29time in market authority. We had another
- 48:31who got her entire client journey built
- 48:33out for the first time and it changes
- 48:35everything about the way that she shows
- 48:37up for clients. And these are
- 48:38experienced agents who know their way
- 48:40around the business, but have never
- 48:42taken the time to get it out of their
- 48:44head and into a place where they can
- 48:46actually figure out the best way to do
- 48:47things. We have another who's in her
- 48:50busiest season ever, right? Who said the
- 48:53systems are so dialed in, she doesn't
- 48:54have to think. She just follows the
- 48:56process. We have another agent um out
- 48:59who was who is part-time for years. He
- 49:02joined us working part-time with the
- 49:04goal to go full-time. He closed 20 deals
- 49:06in 6 months, went full-time by month
- 49:09four, and then recently just got his
- 49:11broker's license. Like, he's on the path
- 49:12to doing even more great things. These
- 49:15are not unicorns. These are agents who
- 49:17just finally had the structure
- 49:18underneath them that made everything
- 49:19else work. So, this is a really good
- 49:23time to get started with us. we have the
- 49:25rest of the year um the second half of
- 49:27the year just starting now especially
- 49:29after all the summer hubbub like this is
- 49:31the time we need to be dialing things in
- 49:33so that we have clients who are still
- 49:34closing even in November and December we
- 49:37have clients lined up ready to go in
- 49:39January February right
- 49:42so what I want you to do right now if
- 49:44this is interesting to you and you've
- 49:47been thinking about getting on a call
- 49:48with us I want you to stop thinking
- 49:50about it and I want you to get in So,
- 49:54you can either do one of two things. You
- 49:57can drop call in the chat if you're
- 49:59interested and uh my assistant Pauline
- 50:03is going to reach out to you directly in
- 50:05the chat to get your phone number or you
- 50:07can go to this link that I'm putting in
- 50:08the chat right now and you can book a
- 50:10call with us right away.
- 50:12Um, so what I want to take just a second
- 50:15and we have time for Q&A. So, if you
- 50:17have any questions, please put that in
- 50:19the chat. Um, but here's what I want you
- 50:22to know about the call because I think a
- 50:23lot of people skip it because they're
- 50:25not sure what they're walking into. Um,
- 50:27you're going to book 30 minutes with me
- 50:29and my team. You're going to show up.
- 50:31We're going to look at your numbers.
- 50:32We're going to look at your database.
- 50:34We're going to look at your lead
- 50:35sources. And we're going to tell you
- 50:36what's not working for you and why that
- 50:38is.
- 50:40So then we're going to tell you honestly
- 50:42what we'd be focusing on if we were in
- 50:43your shoes.
- 50:45Don't be scared, Alison. We're all
- 50:46friends here. and you leave with a clear
- 50:48next step whether you join market
- 50:50authority or not. So at the very least
- 50:52you're going to have absolute clarity on
- 50:54what needs to be fixed.
- 50:58At that point if you're like yeah this
- 51:00makes total sense and you want to talk
- 51:02about how that works with market
- 51:03authority. What we're going to do is
- 51:05walk you through the next steps to join
- 51:08so that you can decide at that time
- 51:09whether it's the right fit for you or
- 51:11not. It's just a real answer in what's
- 51:13actually going on for your business. And
- 51:15the agents who get the most out of the
- 51:16call are the ones who are like actively
- 51:19producing, who know something needs to
- 51:22change and who are tired of waiting
- 51:24things for things to shift on their own.
- 51:28So, if you've had enough of that this
- 51:29year and you're ready to get on a
- 51:31different path, then you need to be
- 51:32booking a call with us.
- 51:35Okay, I've got some people in the in the
- 51:36chat. Please look at your chat because
- 51:39Pauline is going to be messaging you
- 51:41personally in the chat right there.
- 51:43There's a little tab that's going to
- 51:44open up and she needs your phone number.
- 51:46And then I'm going to be reaching out to
- 51:47you today to get you on the calendar or
- 51:48hit the link and get on the calendar
- 51:50there.
- 51:52And if you're not quite there yet or if
- 51:54you have questions, then go ahead and
- 51:56email us here at [email protected].
- 52:00Send me an email. If you got questions
- 52:02or if you're like, I I'm I've already
- 52:04had a call with your team. I'm ready to
- 52:06go. I just need to know what the next
- 52:08steps are. Send us an email. We'll get
- 52:09you going, too. Now is genuinely an
- 52:11incredible time to join. We're getting
- 52:13into business planning season in
- 52:14September. We have some awesome
- 52:16workshops coming up. We can cover all
- 52:18those details with you at the call. Now
- 52:20is when you want to be in though. So you
- 52:22guys have your next steps. I'm going to
- 52:24open it up for questions. Anything from
- 52:26what we covered today, anything about
- 52:28market authority, anything about your
- 52:30situation, the floor is yours.
- 52:33Um let's see. Lydia said, "With the
- 52:35scaling, if things get to the point
- 52:36where you need an assistant, do you go
- 52:37over that too?" Absolutely. Of course,
- 52:40that's an integral part of it for sure.
- 52:42So, most of our agents at some point are
- 52:44like, "Okay, now I'm finally ready to to
- 52:47bring on an assistant. What do we do?"
- 52:48We have an entire an entire system for
- 52:50that specifically. I walk you through
- 52:52how to hire the assistant, how to decide
- 52:54on the right candidates, um how to
- 52:57onboard them, how to train them, and
- 52:59then they also have access to our
- 53:00coaching hub where you can use these
- 53:03systems and everything that I have set
- 53:05up as their training and onboarding,
- 53:06too. So, we get you to the point where
- 53:09you're ready to bring them on and then
- 53:10we help you hire with confidence for
- 53:12sure. We also have agents who are coming
- 53:14in already with assistance or as like a
- 53:17husband or wife team like my husband and
- 53:19I or another family team structure. And
- 53:22so, everyone who comes in gets an extra
- 53:24seat. So, if you're coming in already
- 53:26with an assistant and you're like, I
- 53:27need I know that I need my assistant on
- 53:29on with this stuff, but I'm so busy with
- 53:31deals. Bring your assistant in. We'll
- 53:34get them trained and you will be shocked
- 53:36at how empowered they are to take over
- 53:39and own their role when they have the
- 53:41right clarity on the processes. That's
- 53:43one of the the biggest the biggest um
- 53:46pluses to this type of structure of
- 53:47coaching that we do.
- 53:50Jennifer says cost. Um I would first I
- 53:54know I'm going to do the thing. It's
- 53:55super annoying. I would first do the
- 53:56thing where I'm like what is it costing
- 53:58you not to have this? Okay.
- 54:01What is it costing you not to have
- 54:03follow-up that's costing you at least a
- 54:04deal a month? What is it costing you to
- 54:07be not activating your clients where
- 54:09people are not moving forward and you've
- 54:11got seven people waiting in the wings
- 54:13waiting for some kind of like imaginary
- 54:15market crash and you have no idea how to
- 54:17get them out of that? Most of our agents
- 54:19are seeing a return on their investment
- 54:20with us within 90 days. And that's not
- 54:23that's not me like overexaggerating.
- 54:25That's actually pretty conservative. Um,
- 54:28most of our agents spend around um 5K
- 54:30with us um for the six-month program
- 54:33with everything included, including
- 54:35working with me in a very intimate
- 54:37setting. Um, and most most other
- 54:40programs far out charge that. So, it's
- 54:43really competitive in terms of what
- 54:45we're able to provide. Um, but we do
- 54:48have other payment options that make it
- 54:50more um accessible for those who want to
- 54:52have like more flexibility on that, for
- 54:54sure.
- 54:57Yeah, for sure.
- 55:03I have plenty of time for any other
- 55:05questions regarding market authority.
- 55:07Anything we covered today, your business
- 55:09specifically, ideas that you have,
- 55:11things you're working on, you can drop
- 55:13them in the chat.
- 55:16I'd love to hear where your mind is at.
- 55:28Okay,
- 55:30sounds like we're good to go. Do you
- 55:32guys have clarity on your next steps?
- 55:35Thank you, Vic. Thank you so much. Thank
- 55:37you, my friend. Keep crushing it.
- 55:39Likewise.
- 55:40Likewise. Thank you. Okay, great. You
- 55:43have the nap the map now. You know which
- 55:46side of your triangle is most broken.
- 55:48You know what that future number one
- 55:50looks like for you. you know what's in
- 55:51the way.
- 55:54The only question is what you're going
- 55:55to do next, right? So, call drop the
- 55:57call in the chat if you're ready. If
- 55:58there's anyone last minute who needs to
- 56:00do that, you can hit call in the chat.
- 56:01We'll get you on the calendar, too. If
- 56:03you're not there yet, then I'm glad that
- 56:04you are here. Either way, we will be
- 56:06sending the replay out here shortly as
- 56:08well. So, if you want to look back on it
- 56:10and review your notes again, we'll be
- 56:12sending that out here by the end of the
- 56:13day. This is some of my favorite work,
- 56:15though. Thank you so much for giving me
- 56:16your time today. I'm really glad that we
- 56:18got to hang out. I appreciate it.
- 56:22Angie said, "I need the systems, but I'm
- 56:25also not being consistent in
- 56:26implementation seems to be what's
- 56:27holding me back." That's why we are an
- 56:29implementation focused coaching company
- 56:32because the strategy is one thing, but
- 56:34if you're getting struggle, if you're
- 56:35struggle busing on the actual setting it
- 56:37up and then following it consistently,
- 56:39those are different skills that we need
- 56:40to work on and that comes up every week
- 56:43through the coaching calls. So, you will
- 56:44be in good in good hands for sure.
- 56:48Uh Jennifer says, "How many hours of
- 56:50coaching a month?" Great question. Thank
- 56:52you for that. Um so we have two hours
- 56:54plus of coaching per week um with me.
- 56:57I'm not passing you off to somebody
- 56:58else. We are actually working together
- 57:01through um the process on Tuesdays and
- 57:04Thursdays. Um and it's typically a
- 57:061-hour call, but I'm there as long as
- 57:07I'm needed to make sure that everybody
- 57:08is getting that individualized support.
- 57:10And then you also have access to me
- 57:12through email and texting throughout the
- 57:14week as well. So, if you need me in
- 57:15between calls, you have email and
- 57:17texting support too, as well as our
- 57:19private Facebook group where you can get
- 57:21um support from the other agents going
- 57:23through the program actively as well.
- 57:26And I will say too, Jennifer, like book
- 57:28your book your call. I think that I saw
- 57:29that you had um the biggest thing that I
- 57:32want to say is we are turning away
- 57:34agents every every month, every week.
- 57:37Literally, that's why we always have the
- 57:38call. We don't take agents into the
- 57:40program if we are not absolutely certain
- 57:42without a shadow of a doubt. it would be
- 57:44the right fit for them. That way, when
- 57:47we bring you in, you're getting the
- 57:50right support and the right systems for
- 57:52what you need to be working on, and
- 57:53you're also in an environment with other
- 57:55agents who are working on the same
- 57:57stuff. So, you can see not only how you
- 57:59want to be implementing it, but you can
- 58:01see how other agents are implementing
- 58:02the same kind of stuff, so that you can
- 58:04get even more context and more
- 58:06perspective for your systems and
- 58:07marketing, too.
- 58:13Yeah, let's chat Jennifer for sure.
- 58:21Okay, awesome guys. Have a great rest of
- 58:25your day. Thank you so much for the
- 58:26time. And if you have any other
- 58:28questions that pop up, send me an email
- 58:31or pop up on our calendars. You guys
- 58:33should have the link.
- 58:36Have a good week. We'll see you soon.
- 58:38Bye.
