322 The Top 10 Podcast Episodes of 2023! The Best of the Best of Referrals Podcast...
Épisode 322
mardi 2 janvier 2024 • Durée 01:16:54
Another year, another collection of awesome, insightful, actionable conversations on referrals. 2023 taught us that the lead generation methods that were once tried and true don't work anymore.
People don't want cold calls, they don't want their doors knocked. They are craving the attention, connection and generosity of people who truly care. That's where we can come in. When it comes to maximizing your referability, there are many pieces to the puzzle, and some of our favorite guest's talked about them.
Time mastery…we can't connect and provide maximum value if it's not in our schedule. The traditional idea of time blocking can feel suffocating, but it doesn't have to be. It can be joyful. We can create schedules that allow us to hit our goals, connect with people and be the influential powerhouses we're meant to be.
Enjoy a masterful (and refreshing) lesson in time blocking with Karla Roberdeau and Neal Smith.
What do you do when your networking's not working? You go back to the most important thing - meaningful one-one-one meetings. If we fill our schedules strategically and then do the homework of following up, we can build a solid network, one person at a time.
In this "Networking Secrets Revealed", Realtor Becky Davis talks about how she fills up her networking stack, and how networking propelled her business to new heights.
In today's world of artificial intelligence and superficial relationships - top of mind isn't good enough. We need to be Top of Heart. Authentic human connection has never been more important, and we can be the ones to facilitate that.

318 You Need An Appreciation Plan For Your Sphere...Here's Why
Épisode 318
mardi 5 décembre 2023 • Durée 41:23
At the end of every year, agents dust off their business plans to hit the ground running in the new year. But a business plan doesn't include a strategy for reaching out to and communicating with your tribe - which is just as necessary. That's why you also need an annual appreciation plan, and it's particularly critical in today's market.
The barriers to cold calling have never been higher, along with the angst against Realtors. Communicating with people we already know is how we grow and get more referrals.
How do we formulate our appreciation plan? How does it solve so many problems in our businesses? In this episode, we talk about the power of an intentional appreciation plan for your database.
The litigation and lawsuits have raised some angst against real estate agents. We have to tiptoe around consumers, but we don't have to tiptoe around our friends. -Michael Maher
Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode
-Business plan vs. appreciation plan
What multi-modal approach of communication are we going to use to express our appreciation to the marketplace?

Can we easily communicate with the different types of people in our database?

Épisode 317
mardi 28 novembre 2023 • Durée 01:01:50
Low inventory, high interest, commission lawsuits and affordability (or lack thereof). Real estate is getting more challenging by the day, leaving consumers and agents alike wondering: what the heck is going on with the market?
There's a ton of uncertainty and fear right now, and if left unchecked, it leads to panic and ultimately, paralysis. Agents who combat the fear with communication, market knowledge and expert advice will win in this market. If we're able to confidently guide people forward at a time of great uncertainty, we'll have a client for life, and plenty of referrals too.
What vital information do we need to be sharing with consumers right now? How do we help them navigate this challenging market?
In this episode, I'm joined by the CEO of Keeping Current Matters, David Childers. He shares how we can be the lighthouse in the storm of the market we're in right now, and how to use information to combat uncertainty.
If you're able to confidently guide someone forward at a time where they're not sure what to do, that's a client for life. -David Childers
Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode
-Data or distraction
Agents can't stop talking about the commission lawsuit, but is it a topic consumers really care about?
-Factually correct but tremendously misleading
In a market like today's, a headline can be more damaging than what's actually happening. How do we separate panic-mongering news from insightful information?
