Your Questions Answered: The Real Truth About Leads, Fees & Confidence

Every week, I get the same questions from self‑employed estate agents — about leads, fees, motivation, marketing, and whether they’re actually cut out for this business.And if one person’s asking… you can guarantee dozens more are thinking it.In this episode, I answer six of the most common (and most important) questions agents ask — honestly, practically, and without the usual industry fluff.We cover:•How to get consistent leads when you don’t have listings•Whether discounting fees ever really works•How to stay motivated when the phone goes quiet•What to focus on in your first 90 days•How to market yourself without feeling cringe•And whether feeling overwhelmed is normal (spoiler: it is)This is straight‑talk advice for agents building a business — not just doing a job.🏆 Nominations and tickets are now available for the first-ever Personal Estate Agency Awards!Join us on 22nd October 2026 in Birmingham as we celebrate the very best personal estate agents, brokerage businesses and brokerage teams from across the UK.Nominate yourself, nominate someone else, or book your tickets here: https://www.personalestateagencyawards.co.uk/ 📚Want a free copy of the ‘Your First £100,000 Estate Agency’ book?✅ DM me the word “BOOK” on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/estateagent.consultancy/ and I’ll send it straight over.📥 Want FREE materials to help get you your next instruction? Head to: https://www.estateagentconsultancy.com/freeintro💻 Want to launch or scale your own estate agency business?Book a free discovery call here: https://theestateagentconsultancy.as.me/sixty-consultation🎓 To access to our ‘Your First £100,000 Estate Agency’ video course. Head over to: https://www.estateagentconsultancy.com/your-first-100000-digital-course📅 Want to join our next free webinar?Get added to the VIP list to find out first: https://www.estateagentconsultancy.com/webinarAny questions?
