Top Agents Playbook

A rapidly growing number of agents are turning their back on the stress and expense of running a business and leveraging their experience and skills to make big money by focusing exclusively on listings and sales.In this episode, Ray Wood catches up with respected New Zealand agent, auctioneer and former multi-office owner Wayne Maguire, who has made exactly that move.After building successful Ray White businesses, managing teams and carrying the pressure of overheads, staffing, systems and office costs, Wayne made a deliberate decision to get back to what he does best: winning listings, building relationships, negotiating hard and selling property.Wayne’s message is simple: the money is often in selling real estate, not in carrying the risk and responsibility of running multiple offices.He shares how he is rebuilding his personal sales business by combining proven old-school prospecting with modern digital marketing. From consistent letterbox drops and database communication to video, appraisal campaigns and online marketing, Wayne is making sure his local market knows that when they list with him, he is personally involved from the first conversation through to the final negotiation.He also explains why AI is becoming an essential advantage for agents who want to create more leverage, improve their marketing, stay on top of communication and run a more efficient sales business.But Wayne is clear: technology does not replace the skills that matter most.The best agents still ask better questions, listen closely, build trust, understand people and negotiate confidently in the lounge room.In this episode, you will discover:Why business ownership is not always the most profitable path for ambitious agentsHow to rebuild your profile and market awareness when returning to frontline salesThe prospecting methods Wayne still relies on every weekWhy personal involvement creates a powerful point of difference with sellersHow AI can help agents create more leverage without losing the human connectionThe discipline, structure and habits behind sustained sales performanceWhy your face-to-face listing and negotiation skills remain your greatest advantageThis is a must-listen episode for agents who are tired of being buried in admin, team issues, overheads and operational stress—and want to get back to doing the work that creates income, freedom and momentum.Sometimes the smartest move is not to build a bigger business.Sometimes it is to become a better, more focused salesperson.Connect with Wayne at waynemaguire.com

Welcome back to the show. I’m Ray Wood.Today, I need to be a little blunt—because I am genuinely worried for a lot of agents.Not worried because real estate is disappearing. It is not.I’m worried because a massive shift is happening right now, in plain sight, and too many good agents are still treating AI like a novelty, a passing trend, or something they will “get around to” later.Later may be too late.The way people find property, research agents, consume marketing and decide who to trust is changing faster than our industry has ever seen. AI is changing search. It is changing advertising. It is changing how cheaply and quickly an agent can create campaigns, capture leads, follow them up and build a database.And somewhere right now, probably in your market, there is an agent who is already doing this.They are running dozens of ads instead of one. They are getting more clicks for less money. They are capturing names, emails and phone numbers instead of sending valuable traffic away. They are following up instantly, professionally and consistently—even while they are asleep.They are building a machine.Meanwhile, many agents are still boosting the occasional post, paying portals more every year, relying on referrals, and hoping their market share holds.That is why I feel urgency around this.You do not need to become an AI expert. You do not need to disappear into courses or spend months trying to understand every new tool.But you do need to act.Because the agents who build automated lead systems now will have a compounding advantage: more contacts, more conversations, more trust, more listings and more future business every single month.In this episode, I’m going to walk you through the four engines that turn your marketing into leads on autopilot—and why, in my view, this may be the most important business system you ever build.Let’s get into it.Let's set up a call. https://admachine.dev/

Chris Janzon, eXp Australia National Director, explains why more entrepreneurial agents are exploring freedom, equity, revenue share and a lower-cost way to build their real estate business.Is the traditional real estate model costing agents too much?It’s a question more and more agents are starting to ask.For decades, the standard real estate career path has looked pretty much the same:Join an office.List and sell.Pay a large split.Work long hours.Carry the pressure.And, for many agents, keep doing it until the day they stop.But what happens when the model itself starts to change?In this episode, I sit down with Chris Janzon, National Director of eXp Australia, for a very open conversation about why some entrepreneurial agents are starting to look beyond the traditional franchise model.Now, I know many agents are sceptical when they hear about eXp.I get it.Real estate agents are pitched “new models” all the time. Most of them sound great on the surface, but once you look under the hood, they don’t always stack up.That’s why I wanted to have this conversation with Chris.Not as a sales pitch.But as a genuine look at how the model works, who it suits, who it probably doesn’t suit, and why some high-performing agents are paying much closer attention.In the interview, we talk about:How the eXp commission cap works in AustraliaWhy some agents may be giving away far more than they realiseThe role of equity and stock ownership in an agent’s long-term wealthHow revenue share works, and why it’s different from traditional recruitmentWhy Chris believes the model appeals to entrepreneurial, self-sufficient agentsHow cloud-based real estate businesses can reduce overhead and complexityWhy lifestyle, freedom and family time became such a big driver for ChrisAnd what agents should be looking at inside their own profit and loss right nowOne of the biggest takeaways for me was this:Real estate agents work incredibly hard for their money.It’s not just what you make that matters.It’s what you keep.And for agents who are writing serious numbers, even a small difference in structure can become a very big difference over one year, five years, or the rest of their career.Chris also shares his own story of moving from a traditional business ownership model into eXp, while still running his own real estate business, maintaining his lifestyle, and continuing to build something bigger than just the next transaction.Whether you’re curious, sceptical, interested, or simply want to understand what all the talk is about, I think you’ll find this conversation worthwhile.You may come away convinced.You may come away with more questions.Or you may decide it’s not for you.But either way, I think every serious agent should at least understand the model before dismissing it.Enjoy the episode,Ray

In this episode of Top Agents Playbook, Ray Wood speaks with Dr. Tim Stafford, a professor, learning strategist, futurist and specialist in online learning and digital engagement.Tim shares a powerful framework for understanding how people engage in crowded digital spaces — something every real estate agent needs to understand in today’s noisy social media environment.At the heart of the conversation is Tim’s “4 U’s” framework for human engagement online:Useful — Your content must quickly show people that it solves a real problem.Unique — Your message needs to clearly communicate what makes you different from every other agent, business or brand competing for attention.Urgent — Not in a panic-driven way, but by helping your audience understand why the issue matters now.Ultra-specific — Vague content gets ignored. Specific content builds credibility, clarity and trust.Ray and Tim discuss why most marketing fails because it focuses too heavily on the product or service, rather than the problem the audience is trying to solve. For real estate agents, this means moving beyond generic posts like “Thinking of selling?” and instead creating content that speaks directly to the concerns, questions and emotions of homeowners and buyers.A major theme of the episode is trust. Tim explains that trust is not built by simply telling people you are an expert. It is built when your audience feels you understand their problem, have solved it before and can guide them with confidence.The conversation also explores how AI is changing the future of marketing, learning and business. Tim explains that AI is especially powerful at removing the “blank page” problem and helping people move faster through the early stages of creating content, courses, research and strategy. But he also makes the important point that AI does not replace human nuance, judgement or expertise — it helps accelerate the work humans already do well.For real estate agents, this episode offers a practical reminder: success online is not about posting more random content. It is about building a long-term digital community around useful, specific and emotionally relevant conversations.Key Takeaways for Real Estate AgentsReal estate agents are not just competing with other agents — they are competing with everything in the social media feed.Your content must show value quickly.The best marketing starts with the audience’s problem, not your service.Specificity builds trust faster than broad claims.AI can help agents create better content faster, but the human insight still matters.Long-term digital trust is built through consistent, relevant conversations.Connect with Tim at https://drtimstafford.com

It's always fun catching up with Greg McDaniel because he's always up to something cool.Here's a summary of our session:Absolutely, Ray. Here’s a detailed summary shortened to roughly 20% of the original wording.Podcast Interview Summary: Ray Wood with Greg McDanielRay welcomes longtime friend Greg McDaniel from Grass Valley, Northern California. After a relaxed opening chat about Greg’s 10-acre property, mowing, weather, and life in Northern California, the conversation turns to what is currently working for real estate agents in social media marketing and advertising.Greg says agents have never had more opportunity to create their own media. They no longer need a full studio setup; a smartphone, simple microphone, and free or low-cost editing tools like CapCut are enough to produce useful content. He emphasizes that agents can now use AI tools such as ChatGPT and prompt libraries like AIPRM to generate video ideas, captions, YouTube titles, descriptions, tags, and content frameworks quickly.A major theme is that agents often feel overwhelmed by all the marketing options available, but Greg argues the answer is simpler than most people think: stay visible, stay relevant, and keep having conversations with your audience. He uses his and Ray’s friendship as an example. Even though they have known each other for around 10 years and never met in person, they have stayed connected through podcasts, conversations, and regular contact. That same principle applies to agents and their audience.Greg recommends agents post short-form content daily on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube Shorts, and other platforms. He says agents should pay attention to who watches, likes, comments, or reacts to their content, then personally reach out and start conversations. Rather than treating social media as a broadcasting platform only, agents should use it as a relationship-building tool.When Ray asks what type of content works best, Greg suggests documenting daily life. He compares each part of the day to a chapter in a book: morning routines, coffee stops, drives, meetings, funny moments, local observations, family life, pets, community stories, and real estate insights. His advice is to make content that is interesting, personal, and relatable, not just constant real estate sales messages.Greg recommends following an 80/20 rule: around 80% of content should be fun, interesting, community-based, or personality-driven, while 20% can be more directly related to business. He notes that kids and pets can attract engagement, though agents should only include family if they are comfortable doing so. Ray jokes that featuring his dogs in marketing videos could make their expenses feel like marketing costs, leading to a humorous side discussion about dogs, grooming, cleaning, and checking with a CPA.The conversation then moves into YouTube. Greg believes YouTube is a powerful free platform because once content is created, it can continue working long term. However, he says fewer than 1% of agents will actually take action. Ray asks why, and Greg bluntly says laziness is often the main barrier. He explains that many agents know what they need to do, but avoid it because they feel they have nothing to say or do not want to be on camera.Greg shares an example of a successful Silicon Valley agent who has deep local knowledge, a long real estate career, children who grew up in the area, a wife who teaches locally, and strong opinions about coffee — yet still feels he has nothing to say. Greg points out that this agent could easily create local coffee tours, community videos, tech-area commentary, and neighborhood stories. The lesson is that agents already have content all around them; they simply need to start filming.Ray and Greg discuss simple equipment, including the Hollyland Lark M2 microphone, which Ray recently bought and found impressive. Greg shares a practical tip: clip the tiny microphone under the brim of a cap for clear audio while filming casual videos.The discussion then shifts to YouTube trends. Greg mentions that large channels like MrBeast are seeing major changes in views as YouTube places more emphasis on Shorts and shorter content. He believes this creates an opportunity for smaller creators and independent agents to gain more visibility. Greg also mentions using tools like VidIQ and Thumbnail Creator to improve YouTube thumbnails, titles, SEO, descriptions, and tags.Greg demonstrates AIPRM inside ChatGPT, showing Ray how pre-built prompts can generate optimized YouTube titles, descriptions, tags, and hashtags. He enters a sample real estate topic and the tool produces multiple title options, a short description, and keyword tags that could be copied into YouTube Studio. Ray is impressed by how much time this could save.Ray then shares what he is seeing with AI Ad Machine clients: property listing ads are generating some of the strongest results. Rather than simply offering free appraisals or asking for listings, agents can advertise actual properties, send traffic to a Meta lead form or landing page, and capture buyer and seller leads. These leads can then flow into Go High Level for automated text and email follow-up. Ray argues that a great listing has enormous pulling power because it shows the agent actively marketing real estate, not begging for business.Greg agrees and adds that ads and content need to match the local audience. A generic message will not work equally well in Miami, San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Grass Valley, or a beach town. Agents should speak the language of their community. For example, in Grass Valley, a real estate agent could create a video using a zero-turn mower or tractor dealership as a metaphor for teamwork and market knowledge. In a beach town, an agent should be on the beach talking about local lifestyle, restaurants, and community news.The core marketing message from Greg is that agents should stop begging for business and instead become a trusted source of information. They should talk about their industry, community, local market, lifestyle, and daily experiences in a way that feels human and useful.Ray adds that testing is now easier than ever. In the old newspaper days, agents ran one ad and hoped it worked. Today, they can run many variations and quickly identify what gets attention, clicks, and leads. This ties directly into Ray’s broader AI Ad Machine philosophy: test multiple ad angles and let the data show what works.Toward the end, Greg introduces Google Flow from Google Labs, describing how it can create AI-generated images from photos and prompts. He gives a playful example of generating an image of family members riding horses, grandchildren running around, and himself on a lawnmower being chased by a kangaroo. More practically, he suggests agents could use AI image tools to help buyers visualize themselves in a property, such as creating an image of a family enjoying a kitchen or living space, while cautioning agents to check rules and avoid anything misleading or discriminatory.Greg also promotes his own podcast, RE Geeks, which focuses on real estate, technology, and how tech influences agents and consumers. He explains that his longtime tech partner Michael is involved, and they discuss practical ways agents can use technology in their business.The episode closes with Ray thanking Greg and promising to include links in the show notes to the tools discussed, including AIPRM, the Hollyland Lark M2 microphone, Google Flow, VidIQ, Thumbnail Creator, and RE Geeks.Key TakeawaysThe strongest message from the interview is that real estate agents do not need complicated marketing. They need consistency, personality, community relevance, and a willingness to create. A smartphone, simple microphone, AI tools, and daily local observations are enough to start building attention.Agents should use short-form video, YouTube, stories, reels, and listing ads to stay visible and start conversations. The best content is not always polished or formal; it is often personal, local, useful, and human.Ray’s major ad insight is that great property listings are still one of the strongest lead-generation assets agents have. When promoted properly through social ads, lead forms, landing pages, and CRM follow-up, listings can become powerful buyer and seller lead machines.Greg’s major content insight is that agents already have more than enough to say. Their local knowledge, daily routines, clients, pets, coffee shops, neighborhoods, listings, and lifestyle stories can all become content. The agents who win are the ones who stop overthinking and start publishing.

I've sold five previous businesses. And I work mainly with people that are experts in their field who want to either start a coaching or consulting program, or they want to monetize in other ways.So that's one side of my business of people that want to grow and scale their coaching and consulting professional service business. So that is one side. The other side of my business though, is I also help people really stand out in their market, in their marketing, and build really an expert and influence marketing platform.So they are really seeing at the top of their industry where they can get the best clients, the best opportunities, either playing a bigger game. And so that is the agency side of my business.Right, right. Well, I'm sure you've made plenty of observations about realtors, as we call them here in North America, or real estate agents. What are some of the things that, well, maybe I could ask it this way.If you were a realtor, what would you be doing to stand out in your market? Because right now it's so competitive. And we're coming off a little bit of a boom in many parts of the world where there's been a lot of property for sale, and then the number of agents grew, and now there's not as many properties for sale, but there's just as many agents. Mentioned in this episode:Social Media Ad Machine Wherever You Find Podcasts!What if you could create hundreds of social media ads in just minutes?

PLEASE NOTE: I’m offering a special marketing package to eXp agents. Please email me for full details: [email protected] When RE/MAX launched in the early 70s it was something of a game changer. The RE/MAX model gave agents a much larger share of the commission in return for a monthly ‘desk fee’ that guaranteed certain support essentials. The RE/MAX model started to grow with brokers stacking hundreds and sometimes thousands of agents into their brokerages. Top agents liked RE/MAX because they got to keep a greater percentage of GCI. The traditional model didn't stand a chance and RE/MAX grew rapidly during the 80s and 90s.New real estate model founded by Seattle broker Fast forward to 2009 when Seattle Broker Glenn Sanford started to ‘tinker’ with the agent-keeps-more model and founded eXp Realty. The eXp model charges agents a nominal monthly fee but they only pay $25,000 a year on the first $100,000 earned in GCI. After that, they keep everything. So a traditional system agent who makes $200,000 a year in GCI would normally keep around half or $100,000, while the eXp agent making the same amount keeps $175,000. Extend that over five years, and the eXp agent has kept $375,000 more than she would have with the traditional commission split model.While the eXp model is not for everyone, it’s quickly gaining momentum as an attractive option for real estate’s top performers tired of paying a big percentage to the owner/broker. Anyone in real estate who has experienced the crush of competition and the seemingly endless increase in costs will quickly tell you “It’s not what you make, but what you keep that really matters.” However, Glenn Sanford did more than create a more generous commission share model, as eXp also has a structured revenue share feature whereby agents can build their teams and benefit from team member results. This has been a very successful strategy for eXp as big team agents earn serious amounts of passive income as the compounding effect gains momentum. In addition, EXP WORLD HOLDINGS INC is listed on the NASDAQ, and eXp agents are allocated shares and can earn and buy more.Lisa B comes onboard with eXpReal estate success coach, Lisa B from Queensland’s Gold Coast saw the eXp advantages early on and went all in to start building her team of agents from around Australia and the world. As a former high-performing agent, Lisa knows the daily challenges of a career in real estate and the obvious advantages of keeping more of what you make. The power and freedom of working remotelyThe rise and rise of eXp and eXp agents has only been helped by the amazing advances in technology and the digital era where working remotely and mobile from the cloud keeps them connected but free to roam without the need for a central or traditional office on the High Street. As Lisa grows her team, I’ve been able to witness the success of the agents she coaches and supports. With endless enthusiasm and great energy, she is a shining star in the group propelling many agents in her team to earning levels they have never experienced before.Agent thought about becoming an Uber driver!One agent from Melbourne had become so despondent and unmotivated working in the traditional model that he was about to sign up to become an Uber driver before joining Lisa’s team and reinventing his personal brand and career. In the last six months, he’s earned more than $250,000 in GCI and is quickly building his own team with agents including several from India where eXp is gaining market share and attracting the more entrepreneurial top performers. My takeaway from what I know is eXp agents get more money, more options, more support and more tools. Reach out if you’d like a sneak peek of the exclusive bundle we’re offering. When we connect, I’ll set you up for a call with Lisa and she’ll tell you all about the group and see if you might be a good fit.Mentioned in this episode:Social Media Ad Machine Wherever You Find Podcasts!What if you could create hundreds of social media ads in just minutes?

Every time I catch up with Box Brownie Founder Brad Filliponi, I learn something new. This time he blew me away with a photo app they've just released that turns anyone with a smartphone into a pro photographer!It's no wonder the sale of high-end and fancy digital cameras is has been plummeting for the last ten years. Your phone is now more than just a computer in your pocket, it's a brilliant, high-performance digital camera producing stunning resolution images, a range of wide and telephone lens settings and simple editing features built in. But I'm sure you already know that.However, there's one thing your phone can't do, and it's a powerful real estate-specific must have!I'm talking about the light-balance issues when shooting images for your latest listing and the light variances that turn an average shot into an image that makes everyone sit up and take notice.Let's say you've just listed an apartment with views over Sydney's Harbour. You walk into a beautiful living room but you can't help but notice the large window because your eyes are drawn to the mighty Sydney Harbour Bridge and the glowing white sales of the world-famous opera house.You can shoot this room with a wider angle setting on your phone but there's a problem: You can take a great shot of the room and a great shot of the harbour view but you can't take both because the light difference for both features in your shot are too extreme.You shoot the room and the harbour is washed out. You shoot the harbour and the beautiful living room is dark.Before founding real estate's number one image editing company Box Brownie with co-founder Mel, he was a real estate photographer with all the fancy gear and lights and editing software to make sure he delivered the very best marketing images for real estate agent clients.But Brad being Brad, dreamed of creating a business that could produce great images for his clients but so much more and for a fraction of the price.Today BoxBrownie.com is the preferred image editing solution for more than 200,000 real estate clients in more than 130 countries.BB's software can virtually stage an empty room (you can't actually tell it's not real!) create floor plans, bring dull images to life, straighten wonky photos, and create a beautiful dusk image of a home that brings out the warmth and color that catches the eye every time.But I digress...Go to your phone and search and download an app called SNAP SNAP SNAP. It looks like thisThis brilliant app lets you take a series of images on your phone (via the app) that you upload to Box Brownie and they'll get you back an amazing looking image where everything is perfectly balanced for light and color. It's a total breakthrough!!Here's the man himself taking you step by step through the process. Don't take any pics with SNAP SNAP SNAP until you've seen this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnjPK0CzJ6EMentioned in this episode:Social Media Ad Machine Wherever You Find Podcasts!What if you could create hundreds of social media ads in just minutes?

Hello loyal listeners and I hope this finds you well and enjoying a break over the holidays.This episode happened when my producer Joel called me to say we needed some content to finish off the year which was when I said "I don't have anything lined up so why don't you and I just create some"😎My new song is titled 'F*** this fire's hot' so it's not for little ears ...If the Eff word offends, please don't click!!It started as a joke a couple of summers ago at the cottage when one of of friends got too close to the fire and the song idea kind of snowballed from there.Our friend Amanda is a songwriter and recording artist and she liked the riff so I went down to St Catherine Ontario one afternoon in the summer of 2023 and we recorded the song between us. I have never done anything like that before so it was a lot of fun. Amanda can play anything and has a great voice so she filled in all the gaps to give it a great sound.Then, when we were done, she suggested I send the master file to a former Sony Music engineer and he made it sound even better!Here's the result!Youtube link to my song: (F*** this fire's hot!)Spotify link to my song: (F*** this fire's hot!)Other links Joel and I discuss are:https://reincubate.com/camo/https://www.elgato.com/us/en/p/prompterMentioned in this episode:Social Media Ad Machine Wherever You Find Podcasts!What if you could create hundreds of social media ads in just minutes?

For the last few years, an increasing number of agents have been messaging me with questions about their career options and in particular, the importance of the 'brand' they work with.In the last ten years, the steady rise of cloud-based real estate corporations has challenged the traditional model of salespeople being employed by a real estate company working out of a brick-and-mortar office.This new digitally remote model has not only allowed agents to establish and promote their own personal brand but also enjoy a greater slice of the commission pie.These days, cloud-based digital brands provide much of the heavy lifting in terms of back-office support for their member agents including trust accounting (where laws call for that) and supplying an ever-widening range of tech tools like coaching, mentoring and training, marketing platforms, CRMs and lead generation workstations leaving the agent to focus on the dollar-productive activities of getting in front of more sellers and doing more deals.This recent visit back to Victoria Australia to spend time with friends and family gave me the opportunity to catch up with my brother Tim and we decided to record a couple of interviews for the show.Tim is something of a brand guru. Today he consults to a list of private clients but his former career path saw him deeply involved with brands like Nike, Mattel, and Krispy Kreme.In 2022 he published his personal branding strategies and success formulas in a book titled 'YourAmazing Brand Story'In this episode, Tim and I get nicely into the weeds of effective branding and how agents can best reach out to potential clients in their community by telling their brand story and standing out in a 'sea' of other agents and making emotional connections by deciding then telling their brand story.There' some really valuable points in this short session.

Hi everybody and welcome back to the show. In this episode, I’m going to share my top 5 buyer qualifying questions plus help you avoid the most common mistakes agents make when talking to buyers.You only need to ask 5 questions to qualify your buyers and I'll get to them in a sec, but first hear me out on something really important.In my experience working with buyers, especially unqualified buyers is the fastest way to ruin a Real Estate career.I see so many newbie agents focus on buyers because finding buyers is easier than finding sellers, and for some reason, new agents think it will deliver the same rewards. Big mistake.Now at the same time, I know some agents specialize in working with buyers which is fine as long as you're set up correctly to do it, but I'm approaching this episode from my traditional viewpoint as a listing agent which is where the big money is made in Real estate.If we all agree that time is our most precious resource, then why waste it working with buyers who are not ready to buy?I know many agents (especially rookies) struggle to manage their time and are easily distracted with a buyer who may or may not be ready to go.But what if we could quickly qualify our buyers with 3 questions to help us make that time investment decision and help them out at the same time.What if you could provide great assistance without wasting your time on someone not even close to buying?And there’s another very important factor here that will cost you big money if you fluff it up; What if the buyer is also a seller?If you turn them away, then you’ll struggle to become their listing agent.I came up with these four questions as a way to train my team during a busy open home where there could be 20 to 30 buyers in a property at any one time and you need to quickly find out who is serious who is a seller and who is just kicking the tyres.I’ll get to the qualifying questions in a moment but there’s something you need to do first.Write two or three blogs on your website so you can refer buyers to them when you let them down gently.If you don’t have your own website and blog, you need to get one because it's the FASTEST way to get found online and you’re naturally going to link your Google Business Profile to it which will get you even more traffic.Your articles will be something like:5 things to look for before you buy in (your area)A Buyer’s Guide to (your area) real estate12 buyer tips for buying real estate in (your area)3 success stories from buyers in (you area)These blogs will also help MASSIVELY with organic search.You need to blogs because you’ll be referring your B class buyers to them so you can continue to help them on their purchasing journey.In fact, at jigglar.com you can quickly customize a multi-page The Ultimate Homebuyers checklist then have it available as a download.Okay, so here are the 3 buyer qualifying questions:Okay great, I love working with buyers. Let me grab your contact info so I can keep you up to date with new listings that fit your criteria.How long have you been looking?What have you seen that you like?Have you made any offers?Do you need to sell a property?At this point, you’ll be able to assess if the buyer is also a seller and act accordingly.Here’s another great question to see where they’re at in the buying process: “Have you lined up a good mortgage deal? I can refer you to an excellent mortgage broker if you like”So by now, you know if they are ready to buy or not.But here’s the thing: Most rookie agents just can’t say “no”They agree to take the buyer around to homes they can’t (or are not ready to) buy and burn daylight when they should be prospecting.They do the easy, non-productive actions that have way less chance of getting results instead of investing their time wisely in quality, solid prospecting.So, let me ask you a question:  are you not better off investing time to win a listing in which case all the real buyers will come to you anyway?In fact, if you're making notes, write that down …When you get a listing, the ‘real’ buyers come to you.So after asking your qualifying questions, you’ll know if your buyer is ready to go or not. There are no ‘maybes’ here.If yes, then great. You know what you need to do.If no, then why not grab their email and send them a link to your blog to help them get ready to buy.You have a heap of options here.The mission is to quickly establish if a buyer is ready to go and worth investing time in.There are plenty of ways to help a buyer if they’re not ready to buy.The most important thing is to make sure you add them as a contact into your database.  Remember, you’re in the relationship business and you never know who will be referring you a listing next.Keep in mind, as your database of new contacts grows, the possibilities and opportunities are endless!Thanks for joining me today. You’ll find these questions in the show notes for this episode at TopAgentsPlaybook.comAlso, let me tell you about some recent episodes that are most popular with listeners.Episode 192 has gone off like a frog in a sock.

A few weeks back, my friend Danny Wood tapped me on the shoulder while I was watching a speaker at Toronto's REALiTY+ Conference and told me I had to meet someone.I followed Danny out into the foyer and was delighted to meet Howard Drukarsh, a fellow podcaster, career real estate legend and co-founder at Right At Home Realty, Canada's largest independent real estate brokerage with almost 6000 members.We only chatted for a few minutes but right there I knew I had to somehow get Howard on the show.In this interview, Howard and I share our thoughts on what agents need to be doing in this current market to not only survive but grow their business and their brand while many of their competitors are wondering what on earth to do.Many thanks to Howard for joining me on this call and sharing his very best ideas and strategies.Howard's podcast guest list reads like a who's-who of Canadian real estate excellence. Can I suggest you check it out here:  RealEstateWithHowardDrukarsh.comemail howard: [email protected] Howard Drukarsh​Howard was born and raised in the working-class neighbourhood of Downsview in Toronto Canada. He spent his formative years working in the family variety store and snack bar before deciding to pursue post-secondary education, he was the first member of his family to do so. Howard attended York University and after graduating with a degree in Political Science he took a position at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in Audience Relations. While at the CBC he recognized that for him to move forward in his career he would need an education in business, to that end he enrolled in the University of Windsor and graduated with a Bachelor of Commerce degree. Seeking new challenges Howard began to work in Advertising, he had several positions with boutique agencies but soon felt that his true calling lay elsewhere. He wanted to explore his entrepreneurial side and decided that Real Estate would provide the best opportunity for him to do so.Howard worked with several brokerages before settling at Johnston & Daniel A Division of Royal LePage Real Estate Services Ltd., Brokerage, it was here that he met the late Arthur Bartram and the two decided to start their own brokerage. Arthur had seen a new business model attracting hundreds of Realtors in the US and thought that with some tweaking it could be successful in the Canadian market. This new venture required funding and after a few setbacks in that regard, they were introduced to Ron Peddicord who possessed the business and financial expertise needed to scale up the operation as well as attract investment. Ron soon joined Arthur and Howard as the 3rd co-founder of Right at Home Realty. In May of 2004 Right at Home Realty opened its doors, 16 years later it has grown to become Canada’s largest independent brokerage with close to 6000 members.A consummate Realtor with a vast and insightful knowledge of Canadian real estate, Howard is often asked to provide comment on issues affecting the real estate industry. Over his career, he has had the pleasure to serve on the Real Estate Council of Ontario (RECO) Board of Directors, the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB), and continues to serve on the Board of Right at Home Realty.Mentioned in this episode:Social Media Ad Machine Wherever You Find Podcasts!What if you could create hundreds of social media ads in just minutes?

What started out as an everyday interview between an author and a podcaster, ended in a very frank and revealing discussion about the current property market, some interesting economic warning signs and perhaps, most importantly, one experienced investor's informed view as to what might happen in the year ahead and what real estate agents should be doing to build their war chest of investment opportunities going forward.What's John's message?We don't get too far into our call when John reveals his true opinion about the banks (He calls the Banksters) and the faceless Wall Street investment giants that are pre-occupied with lining their own pockets with your money.Instead, John advises to take the time to be aware of what's happing in the world. MAKE the time to read the Wall Street Journal or your local financial daily and study and follow the better and more reputable financial advisors who don't have a secret agenda to sway your thinking.John finishes our call with a powerful message to his real estate brothers and sisters.

I'm a BIG fan of setting up your farm to win more listings and make more sales. But where do you start? How big should it be and what are you doing to reach out and connect with the folks that live there?

I'm confident this is one of the most important interviews of the year to date.Meet Levi Lascsak.

Afghanistan in 2009 must seem a long time ago for former special forces Green Beret, Levi Rodgers but I would bet what happened on that day is never far from his thoughts.When the military vehicle in which Levi and four of his teammates were traveling, detonated a 400-pound bomb, Levi was the only survivor and despite serious burns and many broken bones, he ultimately recovered and realized his Green Beret days were now behind him.I was unsure how dig to deep in this session when it came to Levi's traumatic past but, as he shares during this interview, your story is what makes you and a powerful story like this one, is the kind of story that stays with people and becomes part of their lives forever.These days Levi runs The Levi Rodgers Group in San Antonio Texas and is helping the Veteran community not just get involved in owning a great real estate investment, his team is 55% former US military as well.But I think what I like most about Levi's story is that this highly decorated, elite soldier with a Purple Heart, a Legion of Merit and four Bronze Star Medals overcame a traumatic and near-death experience to honor his fallen teammates (as you'll hear during this interview) and create a business from scratch that gives so much back to his city and the local military community.

You WILL NOT be disappointed.During our session, Wayne shares his deepest and most powerful strategies around team building, morale, the personal character traits that set great agents apart from the rest, and the critical number of contacts you need to be the busiest and most successful agent in town.I'm going to predict that if you seriously take this in and watch/listen more than once, BIG things are going to happen, to you and your career.Enjoy

We are all time poor these days, especially in real estate where our actual work schedule is never normal. That's why many busy people are starting to re-think the critically important areas of diet and exercise.So if we all know and agree that nothing tastes as good as being thin feels, what's the problem? It seems life gets in the way. We get older, exercising is less enjoyable, why have one glass of red when you can have two and so on.My guest this week is a Kiwi who has relocated to Tulum on Mexico's gulf coast.Aaron Caville is a very fit looking forty-something and comes to life when he starts talking about health and fitness and the special diets he created then tested on himself. He also creates his own food lists for his weight-losing clients around the world.Personally, I think getting fit and maintaining a healthy weight and lifestyle is all about commitment and sticking to a plan, and that's where Aaron's awesome programs come in.Full details here
