If you want to grow your real estate business and get more clients, then Building Awareness, Nurturing Relationships, Staying Top of Mind and Providing Value should all be at the top of your priority list.

However….

AUTHORITY is the reason people choose YOU instead of another Realtor who offers the same services.

You need to be perceived as an EXPERT. To do this, sharpen your knowledge and competence in these 4 key areas...

1️⃣ The Real Estate Market
2️⃣ Real Estate Laws & Legislation
3️⃣ Property Construction
4️⃣ Your Local Community

But just having authority and expertise in these four key areas isn’t enough either.

You’ve got to DEMONSTRATE your authority through content & conversations, so that people KNOW you have it.

Make sense?

8 QUESTIONS REALTORS MUST ASK WHEN JOINING A NEW BROKERAGE

1️⃣ What Are The Fees, Splits & Benefits?

When comparing Brokerages, make sure you’re comparing based on various income level scenarios.

2️⃣ What Training is Provided?

Don't be swayed by flashy training promises. Check the type, frequency, and relevance of training to ensure it fits your needs.

3️⃣ What Technology Is Provided?

Be cautious with brokerage-provided tech. It won’t differentiate you and may actually cause problems for you if you ever decide to leave (which you likely will.)

4️⃣ What Leads & Services Are Provided?

Are there additional costs for these? Be careful of empty promises of leads and services you won’t use, but have to pay for.

5️⃣  Will You Have Full Autonomy?

Clarify how much control you'll have over your branding, marketing, and commission-setting to avoid conflicts later.

6️⃣ What Is The Culture Like?

Don't overlook the workplace culture. Find out if it's supportive & collaborative or competitive & cut throat, by talking to current agents.

7️⃣ What Happens If You Scale Your Business?

Clarify what will happen if you decide to partner up or start your own team. How will fees, splits & capping be managed?

8️⃣ What Happens When You Leave The Brokerage?

Always know the implications of leaving, including notice periods, pending deal splits, and the fate of your leads.

I share all of these interview tips on my 👉 Women Rocking Real Estate Podcast, Episode 44. Whether you’re new to real estate and trying to pick a brokerage or you’re considering a change or you’re perfectly happy where you are... this episode is jam-packed with info for real estate agents at every stage in their business.

6 THINGS YOU MUST ORGANIZE IN YOUR REAL ESTATE BUSINESS

1️⃣ Your Annual Goals
Setting annual goals is one thing, but are you using a digital tool to track your progress with each transaction you close? You need a snapshot of where your business is, at all times.

2️⃣ Your Annual Projects
To reach your annual goals, you need a project management system that will help you plan and implement the strategies needed to reach your goals.

3️⃣ Your Daily Tasks
Do you know exactly what you need to do every day in your business…without having to spend too much time thinking about it? Most of your daily tasks should be automated so that you can spend more time taking action and less time thinking about what you should be doing.

4️⃣ Your Contacts
Your relationships are your biggest assets. If you don’t have a system in place to help you track that you’re growing who you know & nurturing those relationships, you’re missing the biggest opportunity in your business.

5️⃣  Your Transactions
There’s no room for being disorganized when it comes to managing your real estate transactions. The ONLY way to do this effectively & efficiently is by using a digital system that automates all of the tasks required.

6️⃣ Your Expenses
It can be hard to budget your money working in real estate, but that’s no excuse not to get your finances organized. You’re running a business after all!

Need a system to help you organize all of this in your real estate business?
Our custom-designed Notion templates were built for Realtors & can consolidate all of your business organization using ONE tool.

Which ones have happened to you and what did I miss?

New Year - New Book Recommendation! If you haven’t done it yet in your business, then 2024 is the year to get your finances in order.

It can be hard to manage your money working in real estate. Knowing what to save, what to spend, and how to best manage expenses in an unpredictable, commission-based business, is tough.

But if you don’t invest the time in learning how to manage your money properly, you can get yourself in trouble fast.

So to get you up to speed, I highly recommend you read the book Profit First by Mike Michalowicz.

I know this is a boring topic and probably not high on your reading list, but it’s an important one! So set yourself and your bank account up for success this year and grab a copy of Profit First.

Putting what you LEARN into ACTION and getting RESULTS.❤️💕‼️

Happy New Year 🎊

At the beginning of the year I always make a list of business and personal goals for myself that I want to achieve by the end of the year. I've done this for the last 8 years and it always felt good when I was able to successfully reach some of my goals.

Two years ago I realized I was setting these goals but I wasn't keeping track of them properly. To be honest I was reaching some of my goals, but not all of them. The goals that I didn't reach for the year, I would add them to the next year in hopes to finally reach them.

When I started listening to a real estate podcast a couple years ago (shout out to !) I completely changed the way I set my goals. At the end of each year I now review my business and personal goals, analyze what worked and didn't work, and track my business a little differently so I can see what needs to change.

I'm super excited to share that I reached every single personal and business goal that I set for 2023!! (Cue the fireworks 😉🎆). The small changes I made had a huge impact on my business and personal life.

Cheers to 2024, and may you successfully reach all of your goals! 🥂
