More than a year and a half ago I wrote a post insisting that if you wanted to crush it in real estate you needed to start a podcast. Not only can starting a real estate podcast help you to vastly expand your audience, boost your brand awareness, and position you as an expert in your field but it can also earn you a lot of passive income.

Whether you are a brand new real estate agent, an experienced broker, or a real estate coach, you could always use a few extra streams of income. Regardless of what position you hold in the real estate industry, you are a business owner and you know the value of passive income as well as I do.

However, if you a...

6 Simple Ways To Drive Buyers & Sellers To Your Lead Magnets

As you already know, I'm a huge advocate of collecting your pool of real estate ideal clients passively rather than having to hunt them down through archaic strategies like cold calling or door knocking.

One of the most effective tools in collecting real estate leads to fill your marketing funnels with high-quality buyers and sellers are lead magnets. If you're not yet familiar, lead magnets are digital valuables like checklists, workbooks, and market reports.

Many of my clients hire me to create these for them but not all manage to follow through in gaining traffic to them. What good is a lead magnet if you’re not driving traff...

Have you given up on open houses?

Are you tired of spending entire afternoons sitting alone, picking at a cheese platter, frustrated with all of the time and money you just wasted promoting the open house?

Are you convinced that open houses don’t really work?

I don’t blame you! Waaay back in the day when I was an agent’s assistant I was forced to sit in my fair share of under-promoted and empty open houses.

Not exactly my idea of a fun weekend.

As you know, I’m not a massive fan of lame and outdated marketing tactics. However, with some modern tweaks to your strategy, I do know that you can make hosting open houses worth your time and actually generate both buyer AND SELLE...

By now, I am thrilled that most of you understand that with most (over 90%) real estate transactions starting from an online search, that you have no choice but to have your own real estate website.

Every day, buyers and sellers are hopping online looking for someone like you to help them through their move.

Just imagine how your life and business would change if you started to become the number one result when people were searching for an agent or property in your market. I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that would be a TOTAL GAMECHANGER!

I am pained to see how many of you are throwing up your hands with trying to rank on Google because you can’t come close in searches t...

You know that feeling when you get your hands on a shiny new real estate lead, make contact, and they’re receptive to working with you on buying or selling?

It’s a thrill, isn’t it?!

But as exciting as that is, most of you know by now that that promising new lead can go dormant just as quickly as it appeared.

Most of the time this is because you failed to follow-up. But I’m not here to play the blame game with you!

I’m here to help you revive those dying deals with nothing more than a short and sweet text message.

Each of the text messages that I am going to share with you today are backed by both psychology and statistics which illustrate just how effective th...

As a real estate professional, you are constantly investing your hard-earned money into marketing materials like your real estate website, newsletter, and digital ads.

If you are anything like most in this business, you are probably disappointed at least a few times a year with the results of these materials.

Let's take your real estate website for instance…

One of the largest marketing materials that you will invest in during your career is also the one that should be producing one of the biggest, if not main, source of income. However, even if the design, features, and SEO are all done perfectly, your website could still fail to convert for you simply because the copy is killing yo...

If you’ve been following me for a little while now (thank you!), then you know that I am a big believer in being deliberate and strategic about your real estate blog.

That is because I don’t want your blog to be a waste of your time and resources.

It is my goal to make sure that your real estate blog:

• attracts a loyal audience

• converts your ideal clients on auto-pilot

• builds value into your website (so you can sell it when you retire)

• helps you earn passive income through affiliate posts and relationships

While there are many boxes to check in order to make sure that you meet all of those goals, there are four main elements that every successful blog must have in order to do that. Today...
