Why 90 per cent of Real Estate Agents Are Busy but BROKE | Coaching w/ Storm Fletcher
Episode notes
Are you confusing being BUSY with being PROFITABLE?
I see real estate agents putting in 60-hour weeks, door-knocking, cold-calling, posting on Instagram, but they have absolutely nothing to show for it in their bank accounts. Why? Because there is a massive difference between doing an activity and leveraging an activity.
In this episode of According To Carlo, I sit down with an old friend and heavy-hitter in the real estate coaching world: Storm Fletcher from Richard Robbins International.
Storm doesn't do fluff. This episode is a brutally honest, tactical masterclass on exactly what the top 10 per cent of producers are doing differently in today's shifting market. We strip away the clichés and talk about the actual daily habits, systems and mindset resets required to build a bulletproof real estate business.
👇 In this episode, we cover:
• Why your door-knocking and prospecting isn't working (and the exact benchmarks you need to set);
• The "30-Minute Social Media Rule" and why death-scrolling is destroying your business;
• The "7-Year Itch" and the "2022 Renewal" strategies: How to mine your database for listings right now;
• Why you need to stop chasing what is obtainable and start building what is sustainable; and
• The 3-step mindset reset for agents who feel completely stuck.
Whether you are a brand-new agent trying to survive your first year or a veteran trying to break through an income plateau, this is the reality check you need. Stop doing random activities hoping for a result. Set your benchmarks, track your numbers and execute with intention.
