  1. 0:00Hey y'all. Welcome back to my channel.
  2. 0:02Today I am going to be giving you guys
  3. 0:04what to do in your first 30 days if
  4. 0:06you're new to real estate. These are all
  5. 0:08things that I should have done, but I
  6. 0:11did not do for whatever reason. I don't
  7. 0:13know what I was doing, but I was not
  8. 0:15doing this. If I had to restart this
  9. 0:17process all over again, this is what I
  10. 0:19would do. So, I'm sharing these with you
  11. 0:21and I wrote it down on my phone so I
  12. 0:23don't forget a thing. The first thing is
  13. 0:26business planning.
  14. 0:28This doesn't have to be like a long 2550
  15. 0:32page business plan. It doesn't have to
  16. 0:34be that at all. But you do want to have
  17. 0:37like just hit the the minimal, you know,
  18. 0:40just have like an idea. So write down
  19. 0:42your mission, what you're setting out to
  20. 0:44do, the vision for your business, what
  21. 0:46is your name, or what what are people
  22. 0:48going to know you as on social media or
  23. 0:51on the website? like is it going to be
  24. 0:53Camille the closer, Camille the realtor,
  25. 0:56your realtor friend, real estate bay,
  26. 0:58like whatever the case may be, even if
  27. 1:00it's not a super official name.
  28. 1:04Next, after that, you want to pick out
  29. 1:06which I feel like is the most important.
  30. 1:08You want to pick out what areas you are
  31. 1:12going to be targeting as a real estate
  32. 1:14professional. So, I know many new real
  33. 1:17estate agents, they target buyers when
  34. 1:20they're first starting out, but you
  35. 1:22could decide that you want to target
  36. 1:25sellers and listings. And when you make
  37. 1:28social media posts and things of that
  38. 1:30nature, you're talking to sellers all
  39. 1:32the time, talking to listings. You may
  40. 1:34also decide that you don't want to work
  41. 1:36with first-time home buyers, but maybe
  42. 1:38you're working with buyers who are
  43. 1:40upgrading their living space. Maybe they
  44. 1:44are downsizing because their kids have
  45. 1:46graduated high school, graduated
  46. 1:48college. Maybe you're working with the
  47. 1:50baby boomer generation and they're
  48. 1:52purchasing, you know, a third, fourth
  49. 1:54home because the home that they have was
  50. 1:57a family home. It was too large and now
  51. 1:59they're looking for onele living,
  52. 2:01ranched out, nice and easy. Maybe you
  53. 2:04have a background in uh military or air
  54. 2:08force or maybe your partner does and you
  55. 2:11want to target veterans. I know some
  56. 2:13agents like when they are promoting
  57. 2:16themselves, they promote themselves as
  58. 2:18the veteran agent or the military agent
  59. 2:20and helping military families um gain
  60. 2:24wealth through real estate. So, you
  61. 2:26really want to figure out what your
  62. 2:28target is, your target audience. Who are
  63. 2:30you going to be speaking to? Are you
  64. 2:32helping women in the real estate realm?
  65. 2:34Like, are you speaking to women, helping
  66. 2:36them to develop a plan to develop wealth
  67. 2:39through real estate? Are you helping
  68. 2:41families? like what's your niche? And
  69. 2:43it's not to say that you can't help
  70. 2:45other people that fall outside of that.
  71. 2:47But if you're talking to everyone,
  72. 2:49you're kind of talking to no one. So
  73. 2:52there's other agents who focus primarily
  74. 2:55on new construction only. They don't
  75. 2:58really focus on resale. And so
  76. 2:59everything you see them post about is
  77. 3:02new construction. So I feel like when
  78. 3:05you have a focus
  79. 3:07for your business plan and a specific
  80. 3:10audience that you are trying to target
  81. 3:12that you are trying to reach your type
  82. 3:15of clientele will come to you
  83. 3:18more so if that makes sense because
  84. 3:21that's who you're targeting that's what
  85. 3:23you like. Um, maybe you like am working
  86. 3:25with investors. Maybe your family, you
  87. 3:27know, you grew up in a family who are
  88. 3:30all general contractors and you're just
  89. 3:31used to seeing the flipping process and
  90. 3:34all of that. So, you really want to
  91. 3:36focus
  92. 3:38like come up with a focus.
  93. 3:40After years and years and years, I've
  94. 3:43realized that I really enjoy working
  95. 3:45with couples.
  96. 3:47Couples with small kids, couples like
  97. 3:49just young couples. I really enjoy
  98. 3:51working with couples. and I really enjoy
  99. 3:54like helping them to buy homes versus to
  100. 3:59selling homes. So that's me. But figure
  101. 4:02out what works for you. And I would say
  102. 4:04a natural way that you can kind of
  103. 4:06figure out what you like is just find
  104. 4:09like what are you gravitating to? Like
  105. 4:11what do you find to be interesting? So I
  106. 4:13think that would be a good thing. All
  107. 4:15right. So we're off of business
  108. 4:16planning. We got a few more like a lot
  109. 4:18of more a lot more topics to talk about.
  110. 4:21So, let's go to the next point. I'm not
  111. 4:23trying to make this a long-winded video.
  112. 4:25Social media. When you become a real
  113. 4:27estate agent, your first 30 days, you
  114. 4:30need to make sure that you have a
  115. 4:31Instagram account. Make sure that you
  116. 4:34have a Facebook business page. Not a
  117. 4:37Facebook personal page. That's great,
  118. 4:38too, for connecting with your family and
  119. 4:40friends and people you grew up with,
  120. 4:42went to school with, all of that. But a
  121. 4:44Facebook business page. Update your
  122. 4:47LinkedIn profile. Like if you have that
  123. 4:50you're working at a hospital, update
  124. 4:53your profile to show that you are in
  125. 4:56real estate so that your professional
  126. 4:58contacts can know that you have your
  127. 5:00real estate license. And maybe you're
  128. 5:02doing both simultaneously or maybe you
  129. 5:04have completely branched off into real
  130. 5:07estate update. Updating your LinkedIn
  131. 5:09profile is important because when you're
  132. 5:11working with professionals or looks, the
  133. 5:14first place they're going is, you know,
  134. 5:16looking on online is going to be at your
  135. 5:18Instagram, your Facebook, your LinkedIn,
  136. 5:20whatever public profile. So, I will make
  137. 5:23sure all of that is at in line. And then
  138. 5:26also, you want to make sure that your
  139. 5:28handles are pretty much consistent
  140. 5:30across the board. So, if you create an
  141. 5:32Instagram account and you're uh Camille
  142. 5:35Decloser on Instagram, then I would try
  143. 5:38to mimic my Facebook business page to be
  144. 5:41the same so that people can find you
  145. 5:43across the platforms. And then the other
  146. 5:45thing that you want to do is be posting.
  147. 5:48Like if you're not
  148. 5:51into social media,
  149. 5:53maybe have someone to do it for you
  150. 5:55because we are living in a time where
  151. 5:57people are going to Google looking at
  152. 6:00reviews. They are going to Tik Tok for
  153. 6:03reviews. They're looking at your social
  154. 6:05media profile. And it's like if you
  155. 6:08don't have nothing saying that you are
  156. 6:10now in real estate, like people are
  157. 6:13going to kind of question your
  158. 6:14credibility unless you have something
  159. 6:17else that you bring to the table or
  160. 6:19really powerful presentation and things
  161. 6:21of that nature. So definitely set up all
  162. 6:23your social accounts. The other thing
  163. 6:26you want to do outside of social media
  164. 6:28while we're kind of on websites and
  165. 6:31things of that nature is a lot of
  166. 6:33buyers, a lot of sellers, they're all
  167. 6:36looking on Zillow. They're all looking
  168. 6:38on realtor.com. So, you want to make
  169. 6:40sure that you have your Zillow profile
  170. 6:42set up as well with a photo of you. Um,
  171. 6:46you know, some basic information about
  172. 6:48you. Same with realtor.com because a lot
  173. 6:52of times, like I said, people are
  174. 6:53looking at you online. And then Zillow
  175. 6:56is a great place for you to collect
  176. 6:58reviews as you begin to close clients.
  177. 7:02Zillow does not allow reviews from
  178. 7:05people you have not worked with. So, you
  179. 7:08can't just say, "Oh, mama, can you go to
  180. 7:10my Zillow profile and write me a
  181. 7:12review?" It doesn't allow you to do
  182. 7:14that. It has to be legitimate closed
  183. 7:18transactions on a buy sale on a buy side
  184. 7:21or sell side. I would also suggest you
  185. 7:24have a Google profile like a Google
  186. 7:26business page. There's a little bit more
  187. 7:29that goes into creating a Google
  188. 7:31business page for your business because
  189. 7:33you really got to have things set up,
  190. 7:35but maybe we can get into that in a
  191. 7:37separate video. As for now, in your
  192. 7:41first 30 days, which is what this video
  193. 7:43is about, definitely create your
  194. 7:44Instagram account. It's free to do that.
  195. 7:47Create your Facebook business page
  196. 7:48account. That's also free. And then if
  197. 7:51you can create your Zillow
  198. 7:53andrealtor.com account in all, this
  199. 7:56should take you nothing but 2 hours, 3
  200. 7:59hours max, because you can copy your
  201. 8:01biography across all platforms. You can,
  202. 8:04you know, take certain portions of it
  203. 8:06and shorten it. But you just want to
  204. 8:07make sure that you have these things in
  205. 8:09place. Now, once these things are in
  206. 8:11place, you want to be posting on there
  207. 8:13at least three times a week to stay
  208. 8:16relevant, to keep your page fresh.
  209. 8:18Nothing is worse than going to a real
  210. 8:20estate agent's profile on Instagram and
  211. 8:24they haven't posted since 2024.
  212. 8:27We are in 2025. What are you doing? Um,
  213. 8:30it's like what's the point of having a
  214. 8:32page if you're not going to post? So
  215. 8:34definitely post three times a week, two
  216. 8:37times a week, um even once a week.
  217. 8:40That's the bare minimum you can do. It's
  218. 8:42like once a week. And you can on your
  219. 8:45Facebook business page repost different
  220. 8:47articles. You can post what you're
  221. 8:50learning about in real estate. Oh, I
  222. 8:52just took this bomb class and I found
  223. 8:54out this information. You can post the
  224. 8:57interest rates and where they are. Don't
  225. 8:59be bored, though. A lot of people I'm
  226. 9:02currently at an open house, so if you
  227. 9:04kind of see me looking out the window,
  228. 9:06it's because I want to make sure that
  229. 9:07nobody's coming to the door. But you
  230. 9:09want to make sure that you're providing
  231. 9:10information that is relevant. And most
  232. 9:12people want to know, you know, if I buy
  233. 9:14a home, what is my mortgage payment
  234. 9:16going to be? How can I buy a house?
  235. 9:17Things of that nature. So post thing
  236. 9:20things that are relevant. And then as
  237. 9:22you are learning the business, you're
  238. 9:24going to get questions from potential
  239. 9:26clients and leads. So, what you can do
  240. 9:28is the questions that they ask you, if
  241. 9:30they asked it to you, chances are more
  242. 9:33people have questions as well about that
  243. 9:35same thing. So, what you can do is just
  244. 9:38jot down those questions in the notes
  245. 9:39section of your phone. And the next time
  246. 9:41you make a social media post, make a
  247. 9:44video. Hey, I had a buyer uh earlier
  248. 9:47this week to ask me what credit score
  249. 9:50was required to buy a home. Did you know
  250. 9:53blas blas blas blas? So you can actually
  251. 9:56create content from the questions that
  252. 9:59are being asked of you as a real estate
  253. 10:01professional. The next thing you want to
  254. 10:03do is get a list of your contacts
  255. 10:06together. This is going to help you
  256. 10:09tremendously. And when I say contacts,
  257. 10:12I'm talking about everybody you know.
  258. 10:16mom, dad, grandma, aunts, cousins, your
  259. 10:19sisters, your brothers, god sisters,
  260. 10:21your friends, people you went to church
  261. 10:23with, people you went to school with,
  262. 10:25people you went to college with. If you
  263. 10:26played sports with any of these people,
  264. 10:29if you had any kind of like hobbies with
  265. 10:31these people, like you just want to get
  266. 10:32a list of everybody you know, people
  267. 10:34that you go to for your lashes, your
  268. 10:36hair, your nails, whatever the case may
  269. 10:39be. You want to get a list of all of
  270. 10:41those names, all of those telephone
  271. 10:43numbers, and then their email address.
  272. 10:46And then what you want to do is
  273. 10:48hopefully you have quite a bit of names
  274. 10:50from people you know it. Don't overthink
  275. 10:54it. Don't overthink this process.
  276. 10:56Hopefully you have a list of a good
  277. 10:58amount of sample of people that you know
  278. 11:02that you can add to your system. So, I'm
  279. 11:05with Keller Williams and we have what is
  280. 11:07called KW Command, which is a CRM system
  281. 11:10where you can enter in all of your
  282. 11:12contacts and keep up with them, their
  283. 11:14birthday, send them emails, text
  284. 11:17messages, things like that. Whatever
  285. 11:19company you're with, it is highly likely
  286. 11:22that they also have a CRM system. And if
  287. 11:26they don't, you can literally get one on
  288. 11:29your own. I use Follow-up Boss. Me
  289. 11:32personally, I love Followup Boss. don't
  290. 11:35like hands down the best simple easy to
  291. 11:40use CRM system. But you want to get a
  292. 11:43list of all of your contacts. Put it in
  293. 11:45your CRM system. Send them a text. Give
  294. 11:47them a call. Hey, how you doing? How's
  295. 11:51life been treating you? Okay. How is
  296. 11:54your family? Okay. How was work going
  297. 11:57for you? Awesome. How are your kids?
  298. 12:01Good. what you got planned for the
  299. 12:03summer, you know? Okay. Okay. Um, and
  300. 12:08y'all just chatting back and forth. And
  301. 12:09naturally, when you ask them about their
  302. 12:12job, their career, they're going to ask
  303. 12:13you about yours. I hope. And if they
  304. 12:16don't, then you going to have to slide
  305. 12:17it in there. And that is your chance to
  306. 12:19shine to let them know yes. Like,
  307. 12:22actually, I just got my real estate
  308. 12:23license. If you know of anyone who's
  309. 12:27looking to buy or sell in the next six
  310. 12:29months, send them my contact
  311. 12:31information. I can send you my business
  312. 12:33card right after this call. So, you just
  313. 12:35kind of want to touch base with people.
  314. 12:37It don't even got to be on no like
  315. 12:40salesy type of stuff. Just check in,
  316. 12:43say, "Hey, that's it. That's it. That's
  317. 12:45all." And then every 3 months, four
  318. 12:48times a year, you should be calling
  319. 12:50those people over again, over again,
  320. 12:53over again. And eventually somebody's
  321. 12:55going to say, "Oh, yeah. By the way, my
  322. 12:57cousin is looking for a house. She's in
  323. 12:59your area. These people don't have to be
  324. 13:01in your area. People know people who's
  325. 13:03moving to Charlotte or wherever you live
  326. 13:06and they actually might be moving to
  327. 13:07where you are in a couple of years or
  328. 13:09know of a family member that um live
  329. 13:12where you are." There's been times where
  330. 13:15literally my people in Louisiana,
  331. 13:18word of mouth, they know I'm in real
  332. 13:20estate, they know I'm in Charlotte. come
  333. 13:23to find out, one of their friends moving
  334. 13:24to Charlotte, they're like, "Let me hook
  335. 13:26you up with my cousin." So, it don't
  336. 13:27have to be like people that's just in
  337. 13:30your city. It can literally be anybody
  338. 13:32because referrals can always happen. And
  339. 13:34even if they don't live in your city,
  340. 13:36you can always refer them to another
  341. 13:39agent to help them and also still get
  342. 13:42paid. So, don't discount that. Don't
  343. 13:45overthink it like I said before. But
  344. 13:48yeah, get your contact list together.
  345. 13:50Just give them a call. Call the care
  346. 13:52call. Let them know you're in real
  347. 13:54estate. And yeah, that's going to be the
  348. 13:56beginning of your conversations, your
  349. 13:59contacts that you need to be making.
  350. 14:01Okay, next part. I feel like this video
  351. 14:03is going to be long, but I just have to
  352. 14:05get all this out. Shadowing.
  353. 14:09I should have did this when I first I I
  354. 14:13honestly don't even remember what my
  355. 14:17experience was as a new agent. I don't
  356. 14:20think it was awful, but I've now been a
  357. 14:23part of so many different teams and
  358. 14:24seeing things done so many different
  359. 14:26ways that I feel as though if I were
  360. 14:29starting out again in my first 30 days,
  361. 14:32this is what I would do. So, shadow, and
  362. 14:34I wrote this down, shadow one agent
  363. 14:36doing an open house. Let it be like a
  364. 14:38busy open house, too. Like a home that's
  365. 14:41in a desirable part of town. A home
  366. 14:45that's at a pretty good price point. You
  367. 14:47don't want to go like too low, but you
  368. 14:49don't want to go s super super super
  369. 14:51high. Unless, again, in your business
  370. 14:53plan, if you're tapping into the luxury
  371. 14:55market, maybe you do want to go a little
  372. 14:57bit higher, but kind of go where the
  373. 14:59average price point is of homes in your
  374. 15:01area in the Charlotte area right now in
  375. 15:032025 is like 432,000
  376. 15:06somewhere along there. But you want to
  377. 15:08shadow one agent doing an open house so
  378. 15:11you can see how it's done, what type of
  379. 15:13questions people are asking as they're
  380. 15:15coming in. You want to shadow one agent
  381. 15:18doing a home inspection as well. So
  382. 15:21maybe team up with a agent that's just
  383. 15:23willing to show you something. Maybe
  384. 15:25they have a lot of business, maybe they
  385. 15:27don't. They have some kind of business.
  386. 15:30And you being there for a home
  387. 15:31inspection is going to teach you a lot
  388. 15:33as well. Because if the home inspector
  389. 15:35is good, they're going to go over all of
  390. 15:37the different components that had a
  391. 15:40defect in the property and you'll be
  392. 15:42able to physically see what he's talking
  393. 15:44about. So, when you go out to show your
  394. 15:46clients, you're not just looking at the
  395. 15:48oos and o's of the house, but you're
  396. 15:50really looking at a property to see if
  397. 15:52this property is could be a good fit for
  398. 15:55your client. And you're you're trying to
  399. 15:58minimize as much risk for your client as
  400. 16:01you possibly can. So, by going to home
  401. 16:04inspections, that is going to put you in
  402. 16:07the best position because you're going
  403. 16:08to know what to look out for. If you
  404. 16:10went to 100 home inspections, do you
  405. 16:13think you'd be pretty good at your job?
  406. 16:15Cuz I do. That is a lot of houses to see
  407. 16:19like a lot of things. You'll start to
  408. 16:21see like common
  409. 16:24elements of homes. That's just like,
  410. 16:26okay. And so when you start going to
  411. 16:28these homes, you're you're like, okay,
  412. 16:30this this is a problem. This is probably
  413. 16:33going to cost you about 2,000 because
  414. 16:35you've already seen it before. All
  415. 16:37right. The next thing you want to do is
  416. 16:38shadow a closing. I know so many agents,
  417. 16:41me included, I was so nervous to go to
  418. 16:43my first closing because you're sitting
  419. 16:45at a table with an attorney and your
  420. 16:48clients and I'm just sitting there like
  421. 16:50this. This is what I was thinking in my
  422. 16:52first close out. I'm sitting there like,
  423. 16:53"Oh my god, I hope they don't ask me
  424. 16:55anything like on the spot." Like what if
  425. 16:57they ask me questions and I don't know.
  426. 16:59So that's why I feel like to get rid of
  427. 17:02those that nervous energy, I think it's
  428. 17:04just great to go to a closing um from
  429. 17:08another agent in your office or maybe
  430. 17:10you join a team and you can just join
  431. 17:11them so you can see what it's like
  432. 17:13because literally like your client is
  433. 17:16going to be sitting there, the attorney
  434. 17:17will be there. Sometimes the client
  435. 17:19lender shows up. It depends and it's
  436. 17:22you. And so, yeah, it's just really like
  437. 17:26an extra set of ears, extra set of eyes
  438. 17:29at a closing table cuz sometimes they're
  439. 17:31supposed to send you to closing
  440. 17:33disclosure before closing, but sometimes
  441. 17:35like that might be inaccurate, but
  442. 17:37really you should be looking at that
  443. 17:38prior to even getting to the closing
  444. 17:40table. But to relieve some of those
  445. 17:41nerves, definitely intend a closing. And
  446. 17:44then the last thing that you should be
  447. 17:46shadowing is just a basic home tour.
  448. 17:49There are probably a ton of agents
  449. 17:51giving home tours. So, I would like see
  450. 17:54how one agent does it, maybe two, you
  451. 17:56know, two tours and found another agent
  452. 17:59to shadow. Just see how they're
  453. 18:01interacting with their clients and again
  454. 18:03what their clients are asking them while
  455. 18:05they're on the home tour because that's
  456. 18:07going to help you when you have your own
  457. 18:09clients that you're touring. You can be
  458. 18:12more prepared. Like you definitely
  459. 18:14should know basic information about the
  460. 18:16house such as the roof, the water
  461. 18:19heater, the AC, the furnace,
  462. 18:24when a property was built, like the age
  463. 18:25of the systems is so so so so so
  464. 18:28important. Another thing that I like to
  465. 18:30add when I'm walking through properties
  466. 18:31is like how long the owner has owned the
  467. 18:34property for. And a lot of your buyers
  468. 18:36are going to ask you why they're selling
  469. 18:38the property. If you could get ahead of
  470. 18:40that, that would be great, too. But
  471. 18:42there's all kind of reasons people sell
  472. 18:44the property like and usually the reason
  473. 18:46is not because the house is falling
  474. 18:47apart. It's like life changes. So yeah,
  475. 18:51definitely take me up on that shadowing.
  476. 18:54Okay, next. We have a couple of more to
  477. 18:56go. So let's try to speed through these
  478. 18:59products that you need. Business cards.
  479. 19:02These could be the physical ones or the
  480. 19:04virtual ones. I'm kind of like old
  481. 19:08school a little bit cuz I know a lot of
  482. 19:10people are like, "Oh, like everything is
  483. 19:12electronic these days. Everything is on
  484. 19:14your phone." Yeah. But again, if you're
  485. 19:17like out and you're on a move or like if
  486. 19:20you're in a place that has spotty cell
  487. 19:22phone service and you can't quite get to
  488. 19:24your electronic business card or your
  489. 19:26phone about to die or maybe you don't
  490. 19:30have your phone on you, it's like in the
  491. 19:32car or maybe you come across older
  492. 19:34people who don't they're not into
  493. 19:36technology. I feel as though it is great
  494. 19:39to have like a physical business card.
  495. 19:41Also, for me, it shows like that you're
  496. 19:44a professional. Like, you took one step
  497. 19:47above getting off your phone to have a
  498. 19:50physical business card. That's just me
  499. 19:52personally. Everybody is not the same.
  500. 19:55So, you can get your business cards made
  501. 19:57on Canva. You can go to Vista Print.
  502. 20:00Your office may supply you with business
  503. 20:02cards, but definitely try to have some
  504. 20:04handy. I feel as though that just makes
  505. 20:06you look like a professional.
  506. 20:09That's just me. And then also with
  507. 20:11business cards, you never know when
  508. 20:14you're going to some of these vendors
  509. 20:15like the beauty supply store or dropping
  510. 20:18your dry cleaning off or the nail shop.
  511. 20:21You stick your business card right
  512. 20:22there. You never know who will pick your
  513. 20:25business card up and give you a call.
  514. 20:27You never know. Like my colleague, he's
  515. 20:30done that and he's gotten business from
  516. 20:32that. And then like it's just easy
  517. 20:35simple exchange. When you're
  518. 20:38dining at a restaurant and you have a
  519. 20:41really good conversation with a waiter,
  520. 20:43a waitress, you can leave your business
  521. 20:45card. Thanks. Your service was great.
  522. 20:49Leave your business card. Like you just
  523. 20:51never know where you would get your next
  524. 20:53deal from. Which is why I feel as though
  525. 20:55business cards are a great thing to
  526. 20:57have. But if you want to just keep it on
  527. 21:00your phone, I'm going to show you guys
  528. 21:02my virtual business card. I use a
  529. 21:06website called Blink. It's a website and
  530. 21:09it's a mobile app. But this is the app
  531. 21:12right here. That's what it look like.
  532. 21:15And then I can show you guys my actual
  533. 21:18business card. So this is what it looks
  534. 21:20like. It has like a QR code and then it
  535. 21:23has like book a consultation, leave a
  536. 21:27review, my phone number, my email, um
  537. 21:30find me on Facebook, and then when they
  538. 21:32scan it, their contact information is
  539. 21:34automatically uploaded into your phone.
  540. 21:37Okay. All right. Next, we kind of
  541. 21:39already talked about this one, but I'm
  542. 21:41just going to reiterate and kind of go
  543. 21:43back just a little bit. So, you know how
  544. 21:46just a few minutes ago we were talking
  545. 21:48about uploading all your contacts in
  546. 21:50your database and like calling everybody
  547. 21:52to announce it? Also, don't forget to
  548. 21:54announce it on your social media pages.
  549. 21:56That was the only thing I like had to
  550. 21:58add. I just wanted to make sure I add
  551. 22:00that added that before we go to the next
  552. 22:02point. But, um, okay, training. I feel
  553. 22:07as though so many new real estate agents
  554. 22:11want to go to all the trainings in their
  555. 22:14office about everything. It'd be so much
  556. 22:18training. It's ridiculous. Like training
  557. 22:20could literally be your full-time if
  558. 22:23full-time job if you let it when you are
  559. 22:25starting out as as a new agent,
  560. 22:27especially if you're with Keller
  561. 22:29Williams because there is so many
  562. 22:30training like they have Ignite for new
  563. 22:32agents. I know some new offices, they
  564. 22:35just have tons of video training, tons
  565. 22:38of PowerPoint. I mean, it's PowerPoint
  566. 22:40presentations. It's just training,
  567. 22:42training, training, training, training.
  568. 22:44Okay, this is what I would focus on as
  569. 22:47it relates to training. Yes, I will go
  570. 22:49to some of the training, learn the
  571. 22:51contracts and things like that. But
  572. 22:52really, it's like unless you have a
  573. 22:55client, you're not even why do you need
  574. 22:58to know about all these different
  575. 23:00contracts and going into the weeds of
  576. 23:02things if you don't even have a client
  577. 23:03you're working with? And a lot of people
  578. 23:05like, "Oh, well, I want to know what to
  579. 23:09do, you know, in case I get a client."
  580. 23:12But you're going to figure it out.
  581. 23:14You'll figure it out. Trust me, you
  582. 23:15will. The first thing is if you don't
  583. 23:17have no clients,
  584. 23:21you need some clients first. So I do say
  585. 23:25train, but in your first 30 days, this
  586. 23:29is the area that I would focus on
  587. 23:31training. Script, script, script,
  588. 23:33script, script, script, script, script,
  589. 23:35scripts,
  590. 23:37scripts,
  591. 23:39scripts,
  592. 23:40script practice, script practice.
  593. 23:44Okay, I hope y'all get the gist. Script
  594. 23:47practice. Yes, script practice. Like,
  595. 23:51there are so many objections in real
  596. 23:54estate that you're going to get hit with
  597. 23:56as a real estate agent. People will tell
  598. 23:58you, "Oh, interest rates are too high.
  599. 24:01I'm not buying right now." Or, "Oh, it's
  600. 24:03the holidays. I'm not going to I'm not
  601. 24:05thinking about a move until after the
  602. 24:07holidays. Oh, I'm locked into a lease
  603. 24:09right now. I'm waiting for my lease to
  604. 24:10end. Oh, oh, so many objections, right?
  605. 24:14And on the seller side as well. Oh, I'm
  606. 24:17gonna sell it myself. I don't need a
  607. 24:19real estate agent. So, all of these
  608. 24:21objections, you need like two to three
  609. 24:24rebuttals to come back to
  610. 24:27because that is what's going to like
  611. 24:29help you as a professional, help you get
  612. 24:32over the hump, help you to get clients.
  613. 24:35Some people may tell you, "Oh, I got a
  614. 24:36friend that's in real estate, a real
  615. 24:38estate agent." No, thank you. And you'll
  616. 24:40probably be like, "Okay, okay, well, if
  617. 24:44anything changes, let me know." Instead
  618. 24:46of like, you know, like challenging
  619. 24:49them. Okay. Well, if there was a
  620. 24:53significant advantage of using me versus
  621. 24:55your friend, is that something you would
  622. 24:57consider? So, you want to be able to
  623. 24:59have like
  624. 25:01different rebuttals to what people say.
  625. 25:03So, that's why I say script practice is
  626. 25:05so so so important. But not only script
  627. 25:08practice for objections, but script
  628. 25:10practice for your buyer consultations,
  629. 25:12script practice for your listing
  630. 25:14consultations, because when you do
  631. 25:17actually get a client and they're like,
  632. 25:19"Oh, yeah. I'm ready to buy a house. I'm
  633. 25:20ready to sell a house." Now you're like,
  634. 25:22"Oh, what do I do?" Consultation. The
  635. 25:25first thing that we're going to do,
  636. 25:27you're going to book a time on my
  637. 25:28appointment calendar. You can use
  638. 25:30Bookie, you can use SetMore, you can
  639. 25:33just use a regular Google calendar and
  640. 25:35let them know what your availability is.
  641. 25:38Next, Mr. or Mrs. buyer. We're going to
  642. 25:40have a buyer consultation. We're going
  643. 25:42to go over your wants and needs. We're
  644. 25:44going to go over the buying process. And
  645. 25:46then, if everything works and you feel
  646. 25:48comfortable and confident to use me as
  647. 25:50your real estate agent, we're going to
  648. 25:53get all the paper prep work done so we
  649. 25:55can get you seeing home soon, right? So
  650. 25:59you want to have your buyer and your
  651. 26:01seller consultations down to a tea. You
  652. 26:04should be practicing that every single
  653. 26:06day. So yes, training, but training on
  654. 26:10script practice in your consultations is
  655. 26:12what I would suggest as the first 30
  656. 26:15days as a new real estate professional.
  657. 26:18And we're going to end this video with
  658. 26:19the very, very last thing that I need
  659. 26:22you guys to do if you are in your first
  660. 26:2430 days as a realtor or if you're just
  661. 26:26new. Okay. The last thing that you're
  662. 26:31going to do is track track
  663. 26:36how many people you're speaking to a day
  664. 26:38about real estate. Contacts. How many
  665. 26:40conversations are you having every
  666. 26:42single day about real estate? You want
  667. 26:44to track that with the date and then the
  668. 26:48number. So today's date is July 19th.
  669. 26:54And I know as of today, as of right now,
  670. 26:57I've spoken with only one person about
  671. 27:00real estate. So by the end of the day,
  672. 27:03maybe I would have talked to four
  673. 27:05people, 10 people, I don't know. You put
  674. 27:08that number in that Excel spreadsheet or
  675. 27:11whatever kind of way you plan on
  676. 27:12tracking that so that you can start to
  677. 27:15learn
  678. 27:17your conversions. you can start to
  679. 27:19learn, okay, if I talk to 20 people
  680. 27:23every day, I know that I can get at
  681. 27:26least one consultation.
  682. 27:29Okay?
  683. 27:32If you are if you plan on working with a
  684. 27:35lot of buyers, the other thing you want
  685. 27:36to track is the number of properties you
  686. 27:38show. If you
  687. 27:42on board one new buyer and y'all go out
  688. 27:45to see five properties,
  689. 27:48you need to be tracking that because now
  690. 27:50you know
  691. 27:52based on history, based on your style,
  692. 27:54based on your conversions, how many
  693. 27:58properties you need to show a buyer
  694. 28:00until you can get that property under
  695. 28:02contract. And the goal is to show less,
  696. 28:04not more. You don't want to be showing
  697. 28:0780 properties before y'all go under
  698. 28:09contract because that is setting many
  699. 28:13times poor, you know, expectations for
  700. 28:16that buyer client. You want to be able
  701. 28:18to maximize your time. So tracking is
  702. 28:22very important and I highly recommend it
  703. 28:24as a new real estate agent and as a
  704. 28:27seasoned real estate agent. Okay
  705. 28:29friends, I think we went over everything
  706. 28:32that I had on my phone. I hope you found
  707. 28:33this video to be helpful and as a
  708. 28:37overall view of what we talked about
  709. 28:41today, business planning, social media
  710. 28:44pages up and running, realtor and Zillow
  711. 28:46do uh Zillow as well, getting your
  712. 28:49contact list together, shadowing,
  713. 28:52uh business cards, announcing to
  714. 28:55everyone, and then training script
  715. 28:58practice as well as consultations, and
  716. 29:00then finally tracking. Those are all the
  717. 29:03things that we talked about in this
  718. 29:04video. If you guys have any questions,
  719. 29:06definitely don't hesitate to reach out
  720. 29:10and I will see you guys in my next
  721. 29:12video. Also, if you're new to my
  722. 29:14channel, I do a lot of real estate
  723. 29:16vlogs. Go watch the vlogs. It'll show
