    • Micheal describes when the possibility of becoming a successful speaker awakened within him.
    • Micheal always had a desire to help people but didn't always know how to do it. Now he is teaching people how to coach.
    • Micheal describes how Grant Cardone inspired him to scale his business.

    • Many agents don't see their business as a business.
    • Micheal discusses an agent he is working with who is opening a restaurant as part of his branding strategy.
    • Real estate agents should strive to become people of interest.
    • People make big decisions when they are relaxed. This is why people buy real estate on the weekend.
    • You should be prospecting for 2-4 hours every day.
    • People need to understand the entertainment aspect of prospecting. People make decisions when they're having fun together.
    • The top agents are best at entertaining people and making them feel comfortable.
    • Getting people in relaxed settings and holding events can have a big impact.
    • Ask how you can do your own version of what other successful people are doing.
    • Look outside your market and look outside your industry to find new ways to differentiate yourself.
    • Micheal speaks to how his clients have pivoted during the pandemic. His clients are using virtual seminars, virtual summits, Facebook Lives, and other ways to offer virtual experiences.
    • He recommends being highly engaged with your current client base, highly engaged with your past client base, pumping out content to your database all the time, hosting weekly podcasts, writing a book, and working a system to generate attention and leads.
    • This is an industry that you can dominate.
    • The biggest challenge he ever faced was coaching a team to a championship.
    • If Micheal could go back in time, he would get coaching earlier in life.
    • His biggest advice to a new real estate agent is to prospect 2-4 hours every day.

    Episode #146 Telling Your Authentic Story with Connie Chung and Kenny Gong Jun 12, 2020
    Show notes

    During this episode, host Dan Lesniak speaks with a power duo in the San Francisco Bay Area, realtors and brand coaches Connie Chung and Kenny Gong. Connie and Kenny share their vision for successful branding that begins with telling authentic stories that demonstrate your character in a way that helps you build relationships. This is an insightful conversation about the power of telling your story and having vulnerable conversations.

    Episode Highlights:

    • Connie and Kenny started their residential sales business in San Francisco. They recently turned their focus to coaching others on personal branding, authentic storytelling, and cultivating relationships.
    • Kenny's father was an agent and developer, so he grew up with exposure to the industry.
    • Connie and Kenny met through social justice work.
    • Connie says that a lot of failures led her into real estate. She saw the potential for real estate to empower others. Connie describes the transition from social justice work to real estate.
    • Storytelling involves connecting with people by telling them about yourself and being vulnerable.
    • Kenny shares how it was natural to tell his story about why he pursued a career in real estate.
    • Dan talks about how failure ultimately led him to try a career in real estate.
    • Stories of how you got scrappy are what people connect to at the end of the day.
    • When working with branding clients, they talk about the power of story. Then they talk about what makes someone's character. They then help identify stories that illuminate aspects of that person's character.
    • You can translate the authentic life you're living into an authentic brand.
    • They aim to teach people about branding through infusing their character through stories.
    • When we can remember what keeps our clients up at night, we can connect with them on that level.
    • You stand a chance when you establish trust and rapport.
    • Many agents rely on prettiness alone for their branding.
    • It's so easy to have a great looking brand these days. But when you exclusively focus on prettiness, your branding begins to look like everyone else's branding.
    • People also tend to rely on stating their competence. When you're in a hot market, everyone provides excellent service.
    • At first Connie felt she had to play the part of the "traditional" realtor. Remember there are many ways to be successful in this industry. You can be yourself.
    • Connie and Kenny share about why they started a race and real estate roundtable.
    • It's important to remember for realtors of color that their stories are important to share.
    • They want to encourage people to share the story of their lives up to the point when they became realtors. This may involve family origin stories.
    • Kenny knows that he illustrates the character traits that will attract the right clients to him through his stories.
    • When you do your story work, your brand naturally becomes differentiated from everyone else.
    • Kenny speaks about how important it is to him right now to have conversations that recognize that when we talk about being a white realtor or being a non-black realtor of color in this time, it's about recognizing our privileges.
    • All of our stories are stitched together to create the tapestry of our lives.
    • How are we showing up as white realtors and non-black realtors of color in this current conversation about race?
    • The Thoughtful Realtor podcast is about how to show up in a way that feels holistic, in a way that feels real and honest.
    • Part of thoughtfulness is getting uncomfortable.
    • These conversations may be uncomfortable, but you have to have the conversations if you want to gain that other person's perspective.
    • Connie shares how talking about racism can be scary and uncomfortable for her, but that her role as a coach and educator is to dive into the uncomfortable.
    • Kenny ran into a stat that only 15% of realtors are people of color. When Kenny saw this disparity, that spurred the idea to create the roundtable.
    • Realtors have a unique position as community leaders.
    • Realtors have the responsibility to provide care and compassion to their communities.
    • Connie says the reasons why people of color are underrepresented in real estate are multi-layered.
    • When we see people like us who identify like us in certain roles, it helps us see ourselves in those roles.
    • If you don't see potential and possibility, then it doesn't feel feasible for you.
    • Dan speaks to the low barrier to entry in the real estate industry. He thinks many people are unaware of the opportunities within real estate.
    • Kenny talks about the value of scrappiness and figuring things out in real estate. He loves that this profession allows for so much creativity.
    • Connie says sometimes the biggest challenge they face working together is that they have too much fun and get distracted from the business.
    • Kenny says it's a challenge to focus on the biggest impact they want to make and how to make that impact.
    • Connie's biggest advice to realtors right now is to own your failures. Kenny says not to worry about getting messy.
    • Their most used social media platform is Instagram. Kenny's favorite platform is TikTok.
    • Connie shares about a business mistake she made. Kenny tells us he wishes he got into real estate earlier.
    • In five years, Connie and Kenny hope that most of their work will be done online. Kenny would love to have a coaching program specifically for realtors of color.

    3 Key Points:

    1. Telling the right stories can help you attract the right clientele.
    2. Many realtors make the mistake of emphasizing their brand’s prettiness or their personal competence in their branding. Differentiating yourself matters more.
    3. Right now people of color are underrepresented in real estate. As community leaders, we can work towards greater representation.

    Episode #144 Being a Real Estate Power Couple with Taylor and Ivo Pereira Jun 05, 2020
    Show notes

    During this episode, host Dan Lesniak speaks with Taylor and Ivo Pereira about their parallel real estate and site development businesses. Learn how this power couple operates multiple businesses, where they’ve identified opportunities for growth, and how they create value for their customers.

    Episode Highlights:

    • Taylor Pereira worked in the home remodeling industry and saw potential in becoming a real estate agent four years ago.
    • Ivo Pereira works in construction. He does site development and has one of the fastest growing trucking companies in Northern Virginia.
    • Many of the clients Ivo works with, when doing teardowns in Arlington, are also clients of Taylor's. They are currently pursuing more off-market deals.
    • In site development you have land and want to put a building there. They prepare the land for construction and remove excess dirt. Ivo fell into site development via the trucking industry.
    • Machines are very expensive. They own over a million dollars of equipment. That's an investment they put towards building their business.
    • Stormwater management and stormwater mandates have become more important, so Ivo decided to dig deep into this topic.
    • Being a one-stop shop helps control the schedule and the business.
    • They've limited the scope of the geographical areas they work in so they can prioritize quality service. A lot of people overcommit and then provide low quality work.
    • When Taylor first started in real estate she didn't understand the process so she worked with a high-volume team. After 2.5 years on a team, she knew she could do it on her own and doubled her volume.
    • Teams help you earn credibility as a new agent.
    • When people wanted dirt at their homes, Ivo would ask them why. He would then send the lead to Taylor.
    • They tried signs and doorknocking, but once they got more involved in the industry they found texting and cold-calling worked well to find off-market leads
    • Do your own research on the correct and legal way to text leads.
    • They don't wholesale or try to find off-market properties as hard in Northern Virginia. They do that work in Southern Virginia.
    • Taylor advises new agents to just keep going.
    • Ivo recommends seeking mentorship to save time and money.
    • If you can't afford a book, go to the library, or check YouTube.
    • Experienced agents should never stop learning and push forward.
    • Ivo emphasizes the importance of networking.
    • Ivo says not firing fast enough was his biggest business mistake.
    • Taylor reminds us that business is never easy.
    • Taylor and Ivo share their exciting five year plan for building their business and inspiring others.

    3 Key Points:

    1. Site development involves preparing land for new construction.
    2. If you’re just starting out in real estate, joining a team will help you reach your goals faster.
    3. Mentors will accelerate your growth. Read and learn what you can for free, then invest in paid mentoring.

    Show notes

    During this HyperFast Wealth segment, hosts Dan Lesniak and Sunil Saxena update us on their eleven-unit Columbia Heights project. Learn how they acquired the four lots they needed, where they are in the permitting process, and why it’s helpful to have a completed model when you enter the pre-sell phase of sales and marketing. This is a huge learning opportunity for everyone who follows along.

    Episode Highlights:

    • Dan and Sunil speak to us from their Columbia Avenue project. The land has just been cleared.
    • Sunil anticipates the project will take 5-6 months to complete.
    • There are four lots. One is vacant. The other three have structures that are coming down. They got permits for the empty lot first.
    • The product will be eleven beautiful condos in Columbia Heights. These will be large modern townhouses, around 2000 square feet each.
    • The top units will have rooftop decks. People who aren't in the top units will get nice outdoor space as well.
    • The first three lots were purchased as a bundle. They bought the fourth lot from a neighbor and it was a win-win for everyone involved.
    • There was a developer that sat on the project for two years. The permit process was started.
    • To get up to developing three units per lot, they had to go to the board of zoning appeals.
    • Sunil is always anticipating the next steps.
    • Getting the first one done will allow them to have a model and hopefully pre-sell more of the units.
    • This is an exciting project with a lot of moving parts.

    3 Key Points:

    1. Always try to anticipate the next steps you’ll need to take so you can maximize the time you spend on a project.
    2. If you’re looking for another lot to expand your project, approach neighbors.
    3. Completing a model before pre-selling units offers huge advantages for marketing the property.

    • Sunil details the permitting and inspection process of the renovation, as well as the remaining sitework that needs to be done.
    • Sunil explains where delays may come from, and how they can impact renovation projects.
    • Sunil breaks out his projects into five phases. You should be anticipating, and preparing for, the needs of the next 2-3 phases.

    • Taking occupancy is another step that can increase the project timeline. Sunil suggests making an occupancy checklist as far in advance as possible, in order to prepare for any issues or time delays.
    • Anticipating the next steps helps to minimize delays, and complete your project faster.

    3 Key Points:

    1. Site inspections and permitting happen throughout the renovation process; they aren’t just limited to the beginning stages.
    2. Delays can be a common occurrence in renovation projects.
    3. Anticipating, and preparing for, the next steps of the project can minimize delays.

    • We will all go through life ambushes. Major life ambushes can define you and make you better.
    • Remember to maintain your humility as a leader and recognize that anyone can bring you a good idea.
    • Jason shares the story of his first big life ambush.
    • Jason describes the major ambush where he sustained his injuries. At first, he felt an overwhelming feeling of doubt and depression. He felt like there was nothing he could do and that everything was out of his control.
    • It's easy to focus on the negative and on the bad things that are occurring.
    • You can start to recognize that you can take ownership of your situation.
    • Never buy into the idea that there's no hope.
    • When he was on the ground and thought about what he could control, he knew that if he could get to the combat support hospital he had a great chance of making it out alive. He focused on staying alive.
    • Stay awake to stay alive.
    • The "X" is anytime when you're at the point of attack. You have to get off the X as quickly as possible.
    • Focus on the future and the opportunity there in the moment.
    • The Air Force called in fire that allowed them to get out alive. 96 hours later he was in a hospital in Bethesda, Maryland. There, he learned about all the damage that had been sustained.
    • He went back to controlling what he could, looking for positivity, and getting off the X.
    • He wrote a sign to place outside of his room telling those who wanted to be negative to go elsewhere.
    • When we choose positivity over negativity, there’s a massive ripple effect.
    • Individuals that get off the X the fastest thrive and grow and get better from it.
    • In order to get off the X, you have to REACT to overcome. Jason explains the REACT acronym.
    • R stands for "recognize". First, recognize that you're in a crisis. The faster you can recognize there is a problem, the faster you can start to move off that X.
    • E stands for "evaluate". Evaluate your assets and your inventory. The faster you assess, the faster you get off the X.
    • A stands for "assess". Assess possible options and outcomes.
    • C stands for "choose and communicate." When leaders are dealing with a crisis, sometimes they think too long about what to do. In a crisis, it's time to choose and communicate. When you communicate to others it gives them hope.
    • T stands for "take action." The longer you sit on the X, the harder it is to move. Momentum is key.
    • The three rings of excellence for productivity are point man, moving the needle, and GSD.
    • A point man is an individual in the military trained as the navigator. A point man needs a clearly defined destination and a set course.
    • In a crisis, you need to bring out your compass on a regular basis to make sure you're heading to your destination. In a crisis, your destination will often change.
    • You have to be the point man for your own life.
    • If we know our destination, then we need to achieve forward progress every day.
    • Jason explains The Three Ps: There are three things you should write down every day that will keep you balanced. One physical, one personal, one professional.
    • Right now he is putting out a massive amount of content as a way to move the needle.
    • GSD stands for getting stuff done.
    • When you write down your goals every day, get them done.
    • Motivation will go away from time to time. Discipline is what makes the difference.
    • The biggest key to motivation is finding your destination and setting that course.
    • When we forget about our destination it's easy to lose discipline.
    • Jason shares his morning routine.
    • He had the epiphany that he wasn't pushing himself as hard as he should be in certain areas.
    • Jason shares how he handles it when people don’t believe in his plans.
    • Focus your professional P on bigger career goals.
    • Jason shares about the books he gives others most frequently.
    • Jason shares how to support a friend who has been injured.
    • If Jason has helped or inspired you, please spread the word.
