It's your job to remind them.00:02:18:15 - 00:02:30:14UnknownLet's get started.00:02:30:16 - 00:02:54:03UnknownWhat's up? Ladies and gentlemen, welcome. Another episode of the Real Estate Marketing Dude. Podcast books should It's hitting the fan. There are things happening in the marketplace. Mortgage apps are the lowest they've ever been in the history of mortgage apps. What are you going to do? I see nothing but giant opportunity in this marketplace because as agents continue to dwindle and whatnot, it's just a reality of the situation.00:02:54:05 - 00:03:11:19UnknownThe amount of agents leaving the industry is not as large as the number of homes still being transacted. So there's actually a large opportunity there. However, you need to know how to capitalize on that opportunity and anytime there's a shift. Brands are built, all right, Brands are built, and without a brand, you will not survive in this fucking space.00:03:11:19 - 00:03:28:05UnknownI don't care what you say. You need a brand to continue going forward because no one's hiring the realtor for what they do. You're it's a commodity in the consumer's eyes, but they're hiring. You force how you do it, but you have to be thought of first. You have to be top of mind first, and you have to be able to connect with people because you're no longer a real estate agent.00:03:28:05 - 00:03:55:11UnknownYour damn media company been screaming this since 2014 and I've been damn right we have probably Today show one of the best brands I've seen and we just met like, I don't know, Laura, we haven't talked before. We've met for what? Laura At 4 minutes? Yeah. 30. But I could tell you just from browsing on her website right here, her brand is one of the best I've ever seen positioned wise, especially for a real estate agent.00:03:55:13 - 00:04:15:24UnknownAnd she positions herself as a mom. And I bet you Laura can probably charge me an 8% commission and I wouldn't give a shit. I'd probably still hire her because I could connect with her so much. And there's a difference between people. Like when people are hiring you, they're hiring you for how you do things and more importantly, what you stand for.00:04:15:24 - 00:04:34:24UnknownBut it's ultimately the way you make them feel. And your brand is the direct reflection of that. The reason why I'm harping on this so much is because right now, developing your brand is going to be easier than when the market's hot. So when you're when people are like, look how many realtors stop doing video in the last time, I'm telling you, I used to do videos for hundreds of realtors.00:04:34:24 - 00:04:54:03UnknownI lost over 75% of my business in the shift and the amount of people ...

Building your brand is essential, we all know that, but what should your brand be? What should it look like? Why not make your passion part of your brand. Today we talk to Atticus Ray, and that is exactly what he did. Today he has a show on Apple TV+ and Amazon Prime Video that proves that you can make your passion your brand.ResourceAtticus' WebsiteReal Estate Marketing DudeThe Listing Advocate (Earn more listings!)REMD on YouTubeREMD on InstagramTranscript:00:02:23:00 - 00:02:58:15UnknownSo how do you attract new business? You constantly don't have to chase it. Hi, I'm Mike Webster, Real Estate Marketing Dave. And this podcast is all about building a strong personal brand. People have come to know like trust and most importantly, refer. But remember, it is not their job to remember what you do for a living. It's your job to remind them, Let's get started.00:02:54:03 - 00:03:41:16UnknownWhat's up? Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the episode of the Real Estate Marketing Dude podcast. Folks, you've been following along the last few episodes. What we really been chatting about is what are you going to do in this type of market and the opportunity that really exists. As a number of realtors continue to exit the business. The guest we're going to have today is getting into the business, and I don't think it's going to matter what type of market anybody has.00:03:18:08 - 00:03:41:16UnknownWhen you have a brand like his and I've been I say this for the last fucking eight years, this is very simple. You have to stick out in this business. If you don't stick out, you're just another commodity. And that's why it's so hard to get ahead. But if you look around and you see anybody that's doing anything a little bit different, you'll realize that none of them have a lead generation problem.00:03:38:06 - 00:04:00:21UnknownNone of them have a shortage of opportunities coming across their desk. And but the reality is that so many people will be like, oh my God, I'm so scared to do that. I'm scared to step outside of my comfort zone. I want to be a fucking Stepford wife. You cannot do that in this business. You need to absolutely stick out and you have to be true to yourself.00:03:57:14 - 00:04:17:13UnknownYou don't create your brand, God does, and the ones who embrace it and sing it and scream it from the rooftops, or in this case, dance it, are the ones who typically generate the most amount of business, at least in real estate. So without further ado, and introduce our guest. This is this guy is very interesting. We just met a couple of minutes ago.00:04:16:03 - 00:04:58:06UnknownI'm looking at all his websites right here. He's got his own reality show on. He's a real estate developer, but he's not just any type of developer. He ties in tap dancing into all of his marketing and the like. It's fantastic. So I'm interested to speak with you today. Why don't you go ahead and introduce yourself, tell our guests a little bit about whom you are, what the hell we're going to talk about today.00:04:37:12 - 00:04:58:06UnknownAnd I got all kinds of questions for you after that. Okay. Well, hey, man, I'm glad to be on. Excited to be here. I'm here promoting our show rhythm with views. My name's Atticus Sumner by my stage name. He's my middle name, Atticus Ray. And so that's kind of you see a difference in the name. That's what's going on there.00:04:55:14 - 00:05:33:07UnknownSo that x ray and rhythm with views is the show. And yes, I started off my career as a dancer, just humbly just doing after school type classes and just trying to work my way through college, basically teaching dance. And it was a natural talent. I kind of got it came across easy to me and I just kept progressing and progressing and I found myself, you know, paying my way through school, doing this.00:05:21:14 - 00:05:51:17UnknownThen I had the bright idea one day that what happens if my legs stop working? Or what if I can't dance and everybody gets older?

But how can we use it to cultivate an audience and improve our brand image.ResourceMark's Website Real Estate Marketing DudeThe Listing Advocate (Earn more listings!)REMD on YouTubeREMD on InstagramTranscript:00:00:02:07 - 00:01:05:13UnknownTell the editor your name and the website that we're going to put in the show notes here. My name is Mark Sullivan and the website is Homeowner Dash Handbooks. Who are you ready to rock? Yes, to anyone.00:01:09:21 - 00:01:28:18UnknownSo how do you attract new business? You constantly don't have to chase it. Hi, I'm Mike Webmaster Real Estate Marketing Dave and this podcast is all about building a strong personal brand. People have come to know, like trust and most importantly, refer. But remember, it is not their job to remember what you do for a living. It's your job to remind them.00:01:28:23 - 00:01:37:23UnknownLet's get started.00:01:41:03 - 00:01:58:20UnknownWhat's up? Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the episode of the Real Estate Marketing Dude Podcast. Folks we're going to be chatting about today is and I'm basically going to dedicate the rest of this year to is being different, standing out, getting ahead, doing things differently. You're going to have to work a little bit harder in this type of marketplace.00:01:58:20 - 00:02:16:02UnknownAnd because of that, I mean, you're going to do things that you probably weren't used to doing. And when the market shifts, you have to shift with it. The ones who will stay and remain complacent are the ones who get their ass kicked in times like these. But on the flip side of that, I don't mean to be all doom and gloom because there's nothing but opportunity in shifts like this as well.00:02:16:02 - 00:02:32:21UnknownAt the same time. And it's only during a shift that you really build share market share, you build brand, you build huge opportunity because the shifts are when businesses are made really it's very hard to get ahead when everything is going well and everyone else is crushing it around you. But it's very easy to get ahead when nobody else is.00:02:33:02 - 00:02:50:19UnknownBut you need to know where that opportunity is going to be at so we're going to, you know, going forward, this is the second half of the year in 2014 and dedicate the rest of the year to sort of just standing out better serving. How do you become a better agent, a better lender? Why should people shoot, you know, choose, use what makes your shit not stink?00:02:51:12 - 00:03:10:20UnknownWhy are you the bottom? Why do people need to call you like that's a week? That's that. That's what we want to chat about. So I'm bringing on a past client friend, known him for a couple of years and he's a mortgage broker right now and you know, obviously mortgage brokerage business is down across the board. Right. So, however, he didn't stop.00:03:10:20 - 00:03:30:00UnknownHe kept working harder and harder. And I seen him working on this project that he's been building and whatnot, and I want him to come share his experience. But in short, what we're going to be chatting about today is how do you use education and how does that work within the buying cycle? A lot of times I see a lot of realtors try to create content and they try to create education, but it just falls on deaf ears.00:03:30:00 - 00:03:46:23UnknownIt never really works. They make a video or they make a post. They do it on Facebook and then it dies in the newsfeed and everyone forgot who the fuck they were or what the fuck they talked about. So how do you leverage education to convert, attract and get more business ultimately? So without further ado, let's go ahead and introduce our guest, Mr. Mark Sullivan.00:03:46:23 - 00:04:16:08UnknownWhat's up, Mark? Hey, what's going on? Mike Thanks for having me. Why don't you tell everybody a little bit about who the hell you are, where you at, and what are we going to be talking about today? Yeah, absolutely.

Sharpen Your Skillset with Creative Financing Jul 01, 2023

Show notes

Today we are talking with Zach Beach and we are looking at creative ways to expand your skillset and diversify your offering. If you are still doing things the traditional way, then you are blending into the crowd with a million different agents.ResourceGet a Copy of Zach's BookReal Estate Marketing DudeThe Listing Advocate (Earn more listings!)REMD on YouTubeREMD on InstagramTranscript:What's up? Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the episode of Real Estate Marketing Dude Podcast. Folks, the market has changed. We're going to change with it. And what we're gonna be talking about today is a way to do that. If you're still doing business, the way you have 12 months ago, you're probably suffering. There's a reason why 60,000 real estate agents that I keep saying is probably 40,000.00:04:11:23 - 00:04:27:04It's going to be 150,000. It doesn't matter because when the market shifts, people don't know what to do. And most of you've never seen a shift in your life. And to the tune of like 80 plus percent of all real estate agents have never seen a shift. When the shift happens, it's the opportunity. This is when people make their money in real estate.00:04:27:14 - 00:04:42:20And what we're going to be talking about today is a creative way to go ahead and do that. If you're are a real estate agent or your lender and you're still doing things traditional, there's nothing that makes you different. The reason why some people make a lot of money in real estate is because they do things no one else knows how to do.00:04:43:01 - 00:04:59:00And that's why we're going to chat about today. And the more problems you can solve, the more money you will make. And if you're doing what everything else does, like every other agent, there's a million of you guys, a million real estate agents. Great. I could go out and sell a house. Good. Fucking big deal. I have access to the MLS to anyone can sell a house.00:04:59:00 - 00:05:20:00It's how you sell it that makes people hire you. It's the value you bring to the table, which is a skill set. Today we're going to be talking about creative financing in real estate so you can see how you do deals, how you can advise on deals and bring value to the table. Because the one who does is the one who's going to not only succeed in this market, but they're going to take market share.00:05:20:07 - 00:05:41:06So without further ado from smart real estate coach dot com, we have Zachary Beach to come in and schools today. What's up, Zach? Why what's going on, my man? I couldn't agree with with I couldn't agree with you more with most of the things that you said there. Although I'm not a real estate agent, I work with many real estate agents and show them how to get on the investment side.00:05:41:21 - 00:06:05:15But also my partner was a broker owner for 18 years and my other partner was a realtor for eight. So totally get that side of the business. But now is the opportunity, especially is less opportunities in the traditional side or rear in their heads. Now is the opportunity to get on the investment side, especially in an unstable market, which is exactly where creative financing it's said every real estate agent should be in investing.00:06:05:15 - 00:06:21:02Like if you're investing, you should. I mean, if you're sitting and you should be investing. ECOtality doing if you're not that's all purpose because you'll burn out. I burnt out ten years in a real estate agent if you're really doing deals like if you're doing 30 plus deals a month, 40, 50, 60, you're burnt out after ten years.00:06:21:02 - 00:06:36:21It's it's a hard business and it burns you out. So I ended up in San Diego. But let's get into this thing on on creative financing. And one I want you to tell us a little bit about what type of creating financing you're doing. So I know the exact property types and all that, and then I got a whole bunch of other questions.00:06:38:06 - 00:06:59:16Yeah. So, you know,

People have come to know, like trust and most importantly, refer. But remember, it is not their job to remember what you do for a living. It's your job to remind them, Let's get started.00:05:35:22 - 00:05:54:00UnknownWhat's up, ladies and gentlemen? Welcome to that, brother. Let me start that over. What's up, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another episode of the Real Estate Marketing Dude Podcast. Folks, what we didn't do here to start on my mike on today, it's like the only the third time I've ever done this in my life. But I do have a earpads earpods and I think you could hear me just fine.00:05:55:01 - 00:06:14:07UnknownDude, the phone, the markets change quite a bit, you guys. And what I want to share the rest of the year, I'm actually just going to dedicate towards sticking out, doing things different. What do you do now? Because the one thing that you have to do is change your marketing along with it, because if you're still doing the same shit you did six months ago, well you're going to go out of business.00:06:14:07 - 00:06:34:05UnknownAnd so the latest news, about 60 to 80000 realtors have already done just that. And when a shift happens, you either shift with it or you shift right out of it. And this will be my second and a half shift I think I have had over the last 20 years. So I always get emails and people pinch me to come on this show every week.00:06:34:14 - 00:06:51:22UnknownAnd this one was pretty cool. So I wanted to have her on and share with us what she's doing. But I'll give a quick intro and I'll let her tell her tell you a little bit more. But in short, they have taken a truck rental company, re-engineered it, and almost sort of like partner with people on marketing and advertising.00:06:51:22 - 00:07:10:08UnknownIn a sense, she's going to explain her whole process. But the reason why I wanted to do this show was I remember I was right when I moved to San Diego. I was driving down the street and I saw a realtor doing an open house, but it wasn't a typical open house. What they actually were doing is they had a taco truck outside the open house and they threw a damn taco party.00:07:10:15 - 00:07:27:03UnknownNow that was one of the best open houses I've ever seen, but I instantly thought to myself, like, what should if this they're sticking out, they're doing something different on just an open house. And the reality is just the type of stuff you need to do in a market like this. People will remember how you do it, not what you do.00:07:27:03 - 00:07:44:19UnknownAnd everyone in their mother has a real estate license that does not give you the legal right or any right to go out and make $1,000,000 gives you a legal right to technically sell a house and collect money for it. So without further ado, we're going to go ahead and introduce our guest, C.J. C.J, why don't you say hello to our listeners talking about who the hell you are and what we can talk about that.00:07:45:16 - 00:08:14:20UnknownWell, I'm C.J Streit with On the Move and we're located here in San Antonio, Texas that work with real estate agents nationwide. And we have a company called On the Move where we we've been in business since 1992, advertising a pretty unique marketing tool for various agents.

It's your job to remind them, Let's get started.00:00:31:05 - 00:00:47:10UnknownWhat's up, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to other episode of the Real Estate Marketing Dude Podcast. Folks, what we're going to get to is a look the title of today's episode. You're like, What the hell is that mean? Crisis is seasonal. And this is I've been talking to people all over the country. I always do. And I asked one of the questions I ask is, how are people doing?00:00:47:10 - 00:01:06:23UnknownHow are people doing? If you click on social media right now, you would think that nothing's wrong because everyone's, oh, just a great old God damn well I don't like saying that word. It's just a damn good time. And you probably are like, you wouldn't think anything's going wrong, but, you know, I think we're all lying to us and people who are who are crushing it right now.00:01:07:00 - 00:01:24:19UnknownGod bless you. Like congratulations. Keep going. But the reality is there's a lot of people who are not. As a matter of fact, 60,000 are real estate agents just left the industry according to some recent stats. I've seen them from multiple places. I'm sure that number is not higher because once renewal comes around, I think that's going to even increase greater.00:01:25:14 - 00:01:46:23UnknownI don't know what show we're on, but probably about six months ago I said multiple shows. I said the amount of agents leaving the industry is going to be greater than the less amount of homes that are being sold within the same marketplace. And if you guys remember that episode, if you didn't go listen to my shit because I know what the fuck I'm talking about and it's happening right now.00:01:46:23 - 00:02:09:15UnknownSo yes, transactions are down. But don't get me wrong, there's still opportunity out there. And what changes is the way you market your business, the way you look at your business, the way you approach your business, because if you keep doing the same thing, you're not adapting the business, you're just the salesperson chasing the check. So we're going give you some fucking real world advice today and if that's you right now, listen, pay attention to this, because this might be the episode you're waiting for.00:02:09:22 - 00:02:30:01UnknownAnd we're going to just talk about business life, how you overcome these peaks and valleys, trials and tribulations within your lifetime. If you also listen to my show, I always talk about my faith in Christ. The reason for that is because that's what got me through all of my seasons. And trust me, I've had quite a roller coaster in my lifetime, so so is our guest.00:02:30:08 - 00:02:42:11UnknownSo what we're going to do today is introduce our guests. You actually, we just got out here. She thought we were going to prepare for the show. I'm like, no, we're going fucking live right now. You're not. We're going to take notes and prepare on how we're going to go out and do this show. I'm like, No, I've never done that in my life.00:02:42:18 - 00:03:02:20UnknownSo what we're going to do is we're going to go live right now and just roll with it. So I've known her for quite a while. I actually should probably since 2015 ish, I'm guessing. Yep. And I remember when I first met her was at a club wealth event, I would believe, and I was speaking and she was an attendee and she came up and grab...

The Art of the Cold Call May 30, 2023

Show notes

We may all be over cold calling, but we can't pretend it isn't an art form and occasionally a necessary skill. Today we are going over what it takes to close luxury listings with just some good, old fashioned cold calling.ResourceCheck Out His WebsiteReal Estate Marketing DudeThe Listing Advocate (Earn more listings!)REMD on YouTubeREMD on InstagramTranscript:So how do you track new business, you constantly don't have to chase it. Hi, I'm Mike Cuevas to real estate marketing. And this podcast is all about building a strong personal brand people have come to know, like trust and most importantly, refer. But remember, it is not their job to remember what you do for a living. It's your job to remind them. Let's get started.What's up ladies and gentlemen, welcome another episode of the real estate marketing, dude, podcast, folks, we're gonna be chatting about today's luxury listing. That's one of the top questions we see in all the Facebook groups. A lot of the questions we get written in the show, and they're always like, hey, how do I get luxury listings? And usually, my response is, Well, you got to hang out with the people who focus on those homes. Because if you don't, that's how you build a relationship with them. Right? That's actually how Josh Altman got a start. If you ever read his book, Josh Altman used to hang out in the Starbucks. I think I have his book right here in my library somewhere. But he used to hang out in the Starbucks. That's how he got his first listing he heard overheard eavesdropping in the line, some athlete was selling his house, he threw his coffee way, gets behind them and starts a conversation. And that was how he got his first listing. But he put himself in that environment. So what we're going to do today is our guest is going to prove me wrong and every single way, because he's really good at something I'm not. And most Realtors aren't, to be honest with you either. But that's why it's probably working for him and what he's an expert in is actually going about and getting luxury listings. But starting that prospecting journey on the phone. We're talking about possible cold calling, and I don't know yet we're gonna get into an interview him, but this is phone prospecting, and I can't do it. I hate sales. I can't do it. I just can't do it. I can't pick up the phone and call someone and try to sell my shit. I like when they come to me. But I do know phone prospecting works very well and our other company owner advocate, we are creating all of our seller leads through cold calling, and we're cold calling certain aspects. So it does work. Yes, but this dude's gonna give us the magic. So without further ado, let's go ahead and introduce our guest George dilemmas. Did I say that correctly? Yes, you did. Right. Damn, I know that. I was taking notes when you said it a couple of times. That's why. But let's just say hello to your guests. Tell us a little bit about yourself who you are, where you're at. And I got all kinds of questions for you.Absolutely. Again, my name is Georgia lamas. I'm located here in the Panhandle in Florida. You're probably asking what the heck is that? Well, that's in a historic part of this is called 30. A. That's where all our vacationers come down and investors it's also Destin, Florida is in that area. Lifetime, vacationers come down here as well. And yes, big part of my business sold over 100 million. And I'd say 99% of that's come through phone prospecting, whether it's expired listings, just sold pendings. If I see a significant sale, maybe get to know the neighborhood a little bit call in. And basically, I'd love to kind of run through that. See if I can give some good knowledge out to everybody.That's crazy. How long have you been in the business first?I've been in the business I got my license in 2013. Probably didn't start till end of 14 or 15. I think more than 14 I was still full time in another job.And are you from your local geographic area?
