4XF S3EP11: Choose YOUR Struggle

This episode is recorded from my hotel room. I thought I would share an excerpt from a book I’m reading. This is powerful advice. Timely. To the point and everyone needs to hear this. Enjoy!  Are you willing to choose the STRUGGLE?  We want to choose the dream.  We want to choose the vision.  The end of the game.  We want to choose what WINNING is....BUT - what about the STRUGGLE?  What are willing to do....to give up....to sacrifice...to overcome...to conquer....to fail at....to cry over...to celebrate???

4XF S02E31: The 4 PILLARS of Real Estate

4XF S02E31: The 4 PILLARS of Real Estate

As you may recall, I am in the middle of writing a book - called ATTRACT – which will be completed in the next few months. It’s a lot of work. I think it would be fun to read to you an excerpt from the book to give you a little taste of the content inside the book. My goal with this book is, that every single office owner will give this to their new agents on their first day when they enter into the office to give them a great start in the business of real estate. That is my hope, my dream and my intention. To help out the new people when they get started in this crazy business. I did this a few episodes ago…Season 2 Episode 28 – The Art of Conversation…so if you are just joining us, maybe go back and listen to that one…

4XF S02E25: A Successful Agent is in Control!

4XF S02E25: A Successful Agent is in Control!

I did an episode last year talking about the Internal Locus of Control.  I had never heard of this concept before.  I had never heard of that term “Internal Locus of Control” until I read about it in a book by Charles Duhigg, called Smarter, Faster, Better.

The opposite of that is an “External Locus of Control”….these are people that have a weak Internal Locus of Control…they blame the surroundings around them, they blame the things that they have no control over.  They give credit to the things that “happen” to them to everything and everyone else, around them.

4XF S02E24: PEOPLE VS PROGRAMS!?

I know…. It seems so obvious doesn’t it. I know this is not “breaking news”. Let’s talk about you…lets talk about the People who are licensed Professionals…stick with me here. There are a lot of people out there in Real Estate right now that are terrified of people. There are many people that get into the Real Estate business, if asked, will say that they got into Real Estate because they love people. Some people get into real estate because they know a lot of people. They, then realize that in order to succeed they need to meet more people and expand that circle. Its unavoidable. There are big personalities and more timid personalities in Real Estate…there are extroverts and introverts both who do well in Real Estate. I have always said this. Every single personality type variation that is out there can make a great living at Real Estate. Do you agree with me? Or is this new news for you? Does that give you hope?

4XF S02E21: Build Relationships

4XF S02E21: Build Relationships

Today is going to be a juicy one…I love this topic…once you get this and understand it fully you can’t help but enjoy the dream business!!!

A Successful Real Estate Professional Builds Relationships…I am excited to talk about this subject matter because it is such a “game changer” in our business. In our Real Estate world. Not all businesses get to enjoy this option. Businesses that sell a service or a widget…don’t get to create relationships with their customers. With the rise of the “box store” “warehouse” model it is less personal now. But we think we are getting a better deal so we shop there. Do you remember going into businesses and they knew your name? Do you remember when they asked you about your family? There was a bit of relationship there…the opportunity for that is getting more and more minimized. Now with the uptick in online shopping – which I love by the way, the opportunity for any type of relationship building is eliminated totally. That’s the Retail business world.

But that is not so in Real Estate.

4XF S02E19: Consistency Will BLOW UP Your Business

4XF S02E19: Consistency Will BLOW UP Your Business

This is one of the 9 keys that I believe that you need to be…not do….and that is to be Consistent.  Consistency is so important for all areas of your life.  Are you a person that is consistent?  Can people count on that?  I don’t necessarily mean being a person who has a regimented routine…it can be good but I would admit that, that is really tough in the Real Estate business.  This business can take us in many directions sometimes.  I get it.  I know that. Here is a quote from Robert Collier – “Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day-in and day-out.”

There is never a “quick get rich” scenario involved.  There are a few stories out there where you hear about that but that is 1% of the 1% of the population…The reason you hear about it is because it is so rare and extraordinary.

4XF S02E17: Operate with INTENTION as a real estate professional

If you know exactly what it takes to build a highly profitable real estate business. The truth. Not the sexy content  type trainings, that I see out there…I mean the real stuff that actually produces long term results, and begins the process of building a business that actually feeds itself - a business that literally like a self perpetuating machine…So that you work hard today to get business, and build business BUT at the same time you are creating business for the future so that you never have to worry about getting listings and leads  - ever. Imagine That! You start each day confident, secure, and ready for opportunity knowing that everything you do today will produce results….Does that sound good to you? Stay with me…we are going to talk about that today!

4XF S02E15: Maximize Your Time as a Real Estate Agent!

Business owners hire people to work in their businesses. But you left the job for a reason right? You did not want to be an employee any longer. Can I assume that? Because you were working for someone else’s dream. Right? As a Realtor-Preneur – or a Realtor Entrepreneur, (yes you hear it here first. I have coined this phrase here on 4X Formula Radio) But this is such an important distinction that we need to talk about it. You have made a conscious decision to get out of the J-O-B. right?

4XF S02E13: Be Organized.

Do you feel out of control? Frazzled sometimes?  DO you have to look for things all the time? What about the next 5 people you should contact? What about the most important thing that you should be doing next? Are you reactive or proactive? Do you have a clear vision for your day, your week, your month to get you to the goals that you want to achieve for the year! If you cannot answer an honest yes to that question it is ok. You are not alone. This is extremely common in the Real Estate business. Our business, our days, our budgets even, can feel very unstructured. Very disorganized. Very fluid. And most importantly and painfully, inconsistent. Some people thrive in this environment and others struggle because of it. Successful Real Estate Entrepreneurs are organized and in control. Let’s talk about Being Organized.

4XF S02E09: Be a Professional!

Be a Professional? What does that mean?

Hey all you 4X’ers out there. Thanks for listening…I so appreciate you

being here and I hope to continually give you value every time you tune in.

I have decided to do a series on the 4X AGENT identity.

What does it mean to be a 4X Agent? What are the characteristics of the

4X Agent? Who do you become? I came up with 9 critical facets that I

believe are extremely important in order to enjoy a successful Real Estate

career and enjoy the Dream Business….cue the intro…

Here are the 9 facets that we need to integrate in order to be a complete

4X Agent….this is the identity that we adopt in order to experience the

DREAM Real Estate business…

1. A 4X Agent is a professional

2. A 4X Agent is accountable

3. A 4X Agent is organized

4. A 4X Agent maximizes their time

5. A 4X Agent is intentional

6. A 4X Agent is consistent

7. A 4X Agent builds relationships

8. A 4X Agent receives referrals

9. A 4X Agent is in control

Each facet is so important and I want you to understand why they are so

important so that you begin to understand fully the identity that you adopt

as you work on yourself in order to enjoy greater success! People who go

through our 4X Formula course will be adopting this criteria…SO I am

going to do a separate podcast episode for each one.

We had a little over 300 Licensed Professionals in our Board area and I was watching between 50 to 60 sales go through per month. That was it. 1 deal per month per every 6 agents! That means that 5 out of every 6 agents were not doing any deals at all. When I took over the office, I had 22 Agents in the office. 4 were on my team and I had a full time assistant just for my team and I was loaded up with over 30 listings. The office was averaging 6 to 8 deals a month during that time and I was doing 50% of that volume.
