    The Do's and Don'ts Your Broker Never Told You: What the Ops Side of Real Estate Sees That New Agents Miss | Shawn Kunkler & Maria Coukoulis, Director of Operations at Spears Group

    Send us Fan MailMost agents are busy all day and wonder why their business isn't growing.Maria Coukoulis sees it constantly from the ops side of one of the top real estate teams in the country, agents who spend five hours on an Instagram post, organize their call list perfectly, and never actually pick up the phone. She calls them Sally Sue.Maria is the Director of Operations at Spears Group, and she came on this week with one of the sharpest perspectives I've had on this show, not from the selling side, but from the operations and financial side. She sees what agents do (and don't do) every single day. And the pattern is always the same.We also got deep on something I don't hear talked about enough: what happens to agents after a big win. Most of them stop doing the things that got them there. At Spears Group, they have a rule: when you close a deal, you celebrate by prospecting. Not dinner. Not a day off. You pick up the phone.And then there's the hundred-year business question.

    Your VA Isn't the Problem: What Agents Are Missing About Virtual Assistant Relationships and Why Most VAs Don't Make It Past 3 Months | Shawn Kunkler & Marisa Tragsiel, Digital Marketing Specialist

    Send us Fan MailMost agents hire a VA and immediately throw everything at them, then wonder why it falls apart in three months.What they're missing isn't a better VA. It's a better foundation.Marisa Tragsiel has been running the back end of this podcast for over a year. She's sat in on some of the best agent conversations I've had. This week I turned the mic around, and what she shared about what actually makes a VA relationship work is something I wish I'd heard three years ago.We get into why rapport isn't a nice-to-have, it's what makes everything else possible. Why documenting your process before handing it off is the difference between a VA who thrives and one who quietly drowns. Why expecting one person to be a master of audio, video, thumbnails, copy, and email marketing is setting them up to fail. And why the most expensive first hire an agent can make isn't a VA at all.Support the show𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭.Most agents are tired of being busy but not productive.

    Send us Fan Mail71% of agents did zero sales last year. Paul Zweben isn't surprised, and he knows exactly why.Paul is a top-performing agent in one of the most competitive real estate markets in the world, New York City. In this conversation, he breaks down the mindset, habits, and daily disciplines that separate the agents who stay at the top from the ones who coast from July through September and wonder why Q4 feels like starting over.We also get into something I don't hear talked about enough: the power of calm. Paul came up in the restaurant world under legendary chefs who never raised their voices in a kitchen, and he carried that philosophy directly into real estate.

    The Email That Got Me a Referral Partner | Blake Fahey, Real Estate Agent & Shawn Kunkler

    Send us Fan MailMost agents send mass "just listed" emails to out-of-town agents and wonder why nobody responds. Blake Fahey did the opposite. He sent one hyper-local, BART-commute-specific email that turned into a referral partnership, a friendship, and this podcast episode.In this conversation, Blake breaks down exactly why his old mass-marketing emails got 60% open rates and zero replies, and what changed when he ditched the templates for something personal. Shawn pulls back the curtain on the actual email that made him respond, why "clever" beats "professional," and how feeder-market specificity cuts through agent inbox noise.Connect with Blake Fahey: LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/blakefahey Twitter: https://twitter.com/blakefahey Website: https://blakefahey.comSupport the show𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭.Most agents are tired of being busy but not productive.

    You Know What to Do: The Story Behind the Ace Your Day Deck | Susie Adamson, Real Estate Coach & Shawn Kunkler

    Send us Fan MailOver a year ago, I called Susie Adamson and said he wanted to build something with her. I didn't know what yet. That call became the Ace Your Day deck.52 physical playing cards. Four suits. Each one is a 15-minute task that every agent already knows they should be doing, but somehow keeps avoiding. The idea didn't come from a real estate bootcamp Susie did before a vacation, where she was told to assign an exercise to each card in a deck and do whatever she pulled. That single idea became a year-long project.The most common piece of feedback we've heard from beta testers: "I knew I should do this. I just needed a push." That's the whole product.

    Pedal or Paddle: How Betty Batty Built a Referral-Only Business by Knowing When to Say No | Betty Batty, Real Estate Agent & Shawn Kunkler

    Send us Fan MailBetty Batty got a referral last week. A military family relocating to Annapolis with four kids, needing someone fully hands-on for a remote purchase. She didn't have the capacity. So she called the referring agent, explained the situation, and handed it to someone who did.That's the entire episode in one story, and it's also Betty's entire business model.Betty is a referral-only agent near Annapolis, Maryland, who has never paid for a lead and never plans to. Her philosophy is simple: the smaller you go geographically, the deeper you can go. She knows which neighborhoods have boat slips and waitlists, which streets have kids riding bikes to school, and which driveways freeze over in winter from natural springs nobody told the buyer about.We get into why saying no is actually a fiduciary responsibility, how she built rock-solid geographic boundaries after relocating her business, and the moment last summer she finally set hard limits on her time, the first real vacation she'd taken in 16 years.Support the show𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭.Most agents are tired of being busy but not productive.

    Your Strategy Works. Your Internal OPERATING SYSTEM Is What's Broken. | Kelly Parker, Real Estate Coach & Shawn Kunkler

    Send us Fan MailKelly Parker burned out. Fixed everything. Then burned out again.She finally figured out the real problem, and it was never the strategy. It was the internal operating system running underneath it.Kelly is the founder of Aligned Ambition and has been leading her team, Home Collective, for 14 years. In this conversation, she breaks down why the most successful agents hit invisible ceilings, not because they lack skill or strategy, but because their self-concept hasn't been updated to match the business they've actually built. So their brain quietly engineers a way back down to where it's comfortable. Every time.She also hasn't worked a weekend in two years. Takes a month off in June.

    Be Kind First: How Jennifer Anderson Built a VA Relationship That Lasted (and a National Charity in 3 Years) | Jennifer Anderson, Real Estate Agent & Shawn Kunkler

    Send us Fan MailMost VA relationships in real estate last three to six months. Jennifer Anderson's has lasted over two years.She didn't get lucky. She built a system, and then she did something most agents never do. When she found out how little her VA Charles was actually taking home through the third-party platform, she bought him out of the contract herself.That one decision changed everything. Charles now runs her entire back office. Her clients call him first. He pushes back on her when he knows better. And he has no reason to leave.In this conversation, Jennifer breaks down exactly how she got there, how she interviews for character over credentials, how she uses video to train without creating dependency, and why most agents set their VA up to fail before the first week is over.We also get into Agents Against Cancer, now in its third year, with a formal gala at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago and a golf event at a private New Jersey club.

    Build It Right or Don't Build It: How Bianca Colasuonno Built a Low-Turnover Team With a Salaried Agent Model | Bianca Colasuonno, Team Leader & Shawn Kunkler

    Send us Fan MailMost agents build teams the wrong way. They hire fast, skip the support infrastructure, and wonder why people keep leaving.Bianca Colasuonno did it differently. She's a Queens, New York-based team leader with over two decades in the business, 100+ transactions a year, and one of the lowest turnover rates you'll find in real estate. Her secret? Build the foundation before you build the team, and pay one agent a salary while they learn.That salaried role functions like a paid internship. No financial pressure. No desperation energy with clients. Just time to learn the business properly, and half of her current team came up through it.We also get into the state of the industry right now, 70% of agents did zero transactions last year, 500,000 agents have left since COVID, and why Bianca calls it a shedding.

    The Meditation Myths That Are BLOCKING Real Estate Agents From Their Best Performance

    Send us Fan MailMost real estate agents have tried meditation at least once. And most of them quit, because nobody told them they were doing it completely wrong.Audrey Jacob is a former lawyer, turned real estate agent, turned meditation teacher. She's been practicing since 2013, deepened her practice during the pandemic while simultaneously serving clients on the front lines as an essential worker, and has been teaching weekly online meditation courses ever since. She also has a book in the works. A meditation companion built specifically for people who tried it, failed, and assumed it just wasn't for them.Audrey breaks down three practical meditation techniques built specifically for real estate professionals. You can apply these tools mid-negotiation, between difficult calls, and in the moments when a transaction is starting to spiral. She also gets into the "Loving Kindness Practice" for dealing with difficult agents, the self-compassion break for when you make a mistake, and why the box breathing technique used by Navy SEALs works just as well in a tense deal as it does in a combat zone.This one is less about sitting on a cushion and more about showing up differently in the moments that define your business.Support the show𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭.Most agents are tired of being busy but not productive.

    The Profitability Problem: Why Most Agents Don't Know What They Actually Keep | Shawn Kunkler & Kathleen Metcalf, Real Estate Business Coach

    Send us Fan Mail1.7 million real estate agents did zero transactions last year. Not because the market was bad. Not because they weren't trying. Because nobody taught them how to actually run a business.Kathleen Metcalf has spent over two decades in real estate and more than a decade coaching some of the top 1% of agents in the country, and she's watched brilliant, hardworking people slowly bleed out financially without ever understanding why.We get into the four money-making activities every agent should be spending the majority of their time on, why your brokerage might be costing you more than it's giving you, and the real reason your phone rings at 8pm on a Sunday.

    The Cost of Caring Too Much: Starting Over and Building a Real Estate Business From Scratch | Shawn Kunkler & Rachel Hausman Masse, $50M Producer Turned Two-Market Agent

    Send us Fan MailMost agents never stop long enough to ask the question. They just keep going, more transactions, more markets, more hustle, until something forces them to sit down and reckon with why they do it the way they do it and where that came from in the first place.Rachel Hausman Masse sat down. And what she found stopped her cold.She spent nearly two decades building one of Chicago's top-producing real estate teams alongside her mother. Over 100 transactions a year. More than $50 million annually. A brand, a business, and a partnership that had taken the better part of her adult life to construct. And then she left. Quietly. Secretly. Without telling her sphere, without a clean transition, without a roadmap, and moved to a state most of her clients genuinely believed was somewhere near Canada.What followed was not a triumphant pivot. It was 18 transactions in year one. A from-scratch rebrand in a market with zero crossover from everything she had spent two decades building. A mother who needed space to rebuild what they had created together. And the slow, uncomfortable realization that the way she had always operated, the sleepless nights over deals, the vacations spent worrying about listings, the emotional investment that went so far beyond what the job required, was not just a personality trait.It went back to being six years old. Her father's MS diagnosis. Her twenties were split between visiting him in a nursing home and caring for her clients with the same ferocity. She never separated the two. And it had been running her career, and costing her, ever since.In this conversation, Shawn and Rachel cover what it actually takes to build a real estate business from zero in a market where nobody knows your name, why working with family is one of the most complicated business decisions an agent can make, the apprenticeship model Rachel believes should replace the way the industry currently trains new agents, why having only one revenue line in your business is the most dangerous position you can be in, and the mindset shift that separates the 30% of agents who close deals from the 70% who closed nothing last year.This is not a conversation about tactics. The tactics are in there, and they are worth listening to on their own. But underneath all of it is something rarer. An agent who has done the work long enough and hard enough to finally understand the difference between building a business and building a life around one.And what it costs when you confuse the two for twenty years.Support the show𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭.Most agents are tired of being busy but not productive.

    Why Your Real Estate Partnership Will Fail: How to Build a Team That Actually Lasts | Shawn Kunkler & Dena Zarra, Top 10 Connecticut Compass Agent

    Send us Fan MailNo one could point to and say, "That's where it went wrong." They just quietly stop working. Two people doing the same thing, covering the same ground, slowly running out of reasons to stay in business together. And by the time either partner figures out what happened, the business they built is already half of what it could have been.Dena Zarra has watched it happen more times than she can count. She has also spent 31 years making sure it never happened to her.A top 10 agent in all of Connecticut and one of the most respected names in the Compass network, Dena built something most agents only talk about — a five-person team where every role is distinct, every lane is protected, and no two people are doing the same job. An attorney at the table when deals get complicated. A builder on call when clients think renovating is going to cost a fortune. A New York City pipeline feeding the Connecticut suburbs. A next-generation agent sees what the veterans have stopped noticing.Nobody overlapping. Nobody competing. Nobody wondering whose deal it is.In this conversation, Shawn and Dena get into why partnering with someone just like you is the fastest path to a failing business, the exact conversation most partners never have before they go into business together and why skipping it is fatal, how to introduce your team so clients never feel the gap when you're not in the room, and what it actually takes to build a real estate partnership that holds the weight when things get hard.Dena will tell you that the structure they have now didn't happen by accident. It happened because they almost got it completely wrong.Most teams do.

    Ep 160 The Human Connection Crisis: Why AI Is Making Real Estate Agents Invisible And What's ACTUALLY Working Now | Shawn Kunkler & Skye Michiels

    Send us Fan MailSomething is happening inside the real estate industry right now. And the agents who don't see it coming are about to get left behind.While the industry obsesses over AI tools, automated funnels, and digital marketing strategies, a quiet shift is happening among the highest-producing agents in the country. They're going the other direction. And it's working.Skye Michiels has seen it from the inside. As the former head of coaching at Compass, one of the largest brokerages in the country, he has worked with agents across every market, every price point, and every production level. What he found is not what the industry is selling right now.Most agents are drowning in information and starving for action. AI is not solving that problem. For the majority of real estate professionals, it is making it significantly worse, creating the illusion of productivity while the relationships that actually generate business slowly go cold.In this episode, Skye and Shawn break down exactly what is happening and what to do about it. They cover why AI is creating paralysis instead of production for most agents, the one word swap that makes AI immediately less overwhelming and more useful, why email marketing is quietly failing and what to replace it with, the micro event strategy that keeps you in front of your top clients all year without a big budget, and why the next 12 months represent the single biggest opportunity for agents willing to go back to basics.The agents winning right now are not the ones with the most sophisticated technology. They are the ones who showed up. Sent the text. Dropped off the note. Made the call.This episode is the reminder and the roadmap.Support the show𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭.Most agents are tired of being busy but not productive.

    Ep 159 The Pitch Expert Who Won Shark Tank: Attention, Persuasion, and Owning Any Room | Shawn Kunkler & Precious Williams

    Send us Fan MailMost people lose the room before they say a single word. And they have no idea it's happening.Precious Williams has spent 31 years studying exactly why, and she's here to fix it.Precious is a 5-time number one bestselling author, Shark Tank veteran, former attorney, and one of the most in-demand pitch coaches in the world. She didn't get there by following the rules. She got there by rewriting them, from inner-city Detroit, through homelessness, through being told her ideas were too loud, too bold, too much. She's still here. And she's got receipts.In this conversation, Shawn Kunkler, Founder of the Homeward Associates Group out of San Francisco, and Precious Williams go deep on what actually makes a pitch land, and it's not what most people think. They cover the 6 types of pitches and why using the wrong one is quietly killing your close rate, why introverts have a secret weapon most extroverts will never have, how your packaging, your words, your energy, the way you walk into a room, is making or breaking you before you even speak, what Precious learned from a room full of "incorrigible" middle school girls that changed everything about how she teaches, and why the people who told her no are very quiet right now.This isn't a masterclass in theory.

    Ep 157 I Made Rejection a Game, and It Changed Everything About How I Sell | Shawn Kunkler & Alyssa Curran

    Send us Fan MailWhat if every question your client asks is actually a fear in disguise? This time the tables are turned. Alyssa Curran sits down with me, Shawn Kunkler, Founder of Homeward Associates out of San Francisco. We had one of the most honest conversations on the show yet. No script, no polish, just the two of us who've seen enough deals go sideways to stop pretending this business is easy.We unpack the philosophy that changed how I communicate with every client. Questions are actually fears. When your clients are calling you at 9 pm asking why the house hasn't sold, that's not curiosity, that's a fear you didn't get ahead of. The agents who figure this out are the ones who build businesses that run on referrals instead of hustle.But this episode goes well beyond communication. We get real about the stress of absorbing your clients' emotions, how I went from a broken-ribbed martial arts instructor to one of San Francisco's most respected agents, why I used to pump my fist every time someone walked out of an open house without giving me their info, and why "collaboration, not competition" completely transformed the way I think about this industry.We also dig into AI and where the industry is heading, the Compass acquisition of Anywhere, why your clients don't actually care what brokerage you're at, the importance of routine when you're managing a team and multiple escrows simultaneously, and what audacity really means for a commission-based salesperson.In This Episode:Why questions from clients are always fears in disguiseThe communication system that eliminates 9 pm panic callsHow to let the market deliver the hard news so you don't have toWhy Shawn celebrates every no at an open houseCollaboration over competition, and how the podcast came from that shiftAI, technology, and the human element that can never be replacedThe Compass acquisition and why your personal brand matters more than your brokerageRoutines, scheduling, and protecting your energy across a full plateThe audacity it takes to survive and thrive in commission-based salesSupport the show𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭.Most agents are tired of being busy but not productive.
