Coach's Corner: Possible Missed Opportunity: Agent-to-Agent Referrals

In this episode of The Double Duty Agent Podcast, host Carla Higgins tackles a common belief that holds so many agents back: “I don’t have a sphere here.” If you’ve recently moved to a new area or feel like your local database is small, this episode is for you. Carla shares how you already have a powerful, built-in network that stretches farther than you think - and how agent-to-agent referrals can become a thriving lead generation pillar in your business. You’ll learn how to tap into your existing connections, start meaningful referral conversations, and build relationships with agents all over the country (and beyond). In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why you don’t need a local database to start generating businessHow to use your out-of-state network to find opportunities in your new marketThe simple but powerful “Magic Question” to ask when reaching out to your sphereHow to build an agent-to-agent referral database and why it’s a must-have in today’s marketThe value of staying connected with your past network — even across state linesHow referrals can become a steady, reliable lead generation system Take Action This Week: Call your database - no matter where they live - and ask the Magic Question:  “Who do you know that’s thinking about moving — either to my area or anywhere else in the country (or world)?”2.      Build relationships with other agents in different markets.
