MAP 049: How Bad Pre-Approval Letters Hurt Agents AND Mortgage Lenders
29/11/2018 Duration: 27minMortgage lenders and real estate agents, do you not realize that the clients pre-approval letter is a marketing piece? Agents, are you impressed when a buyers agent sends over a pre-approval letter that has no useful info on it? Does that give you the confidence in the buyer that you need to recommend them to your seller? It's amazing to me how often I see lazy, incomplete pre-approval letters that may as well have been written on a napkin. But what you need to know is that these awful pre-approval letters are killing business for agents and mortgage lenders alike. Bad pre-approval letters are literally hurting the business of both agents and loan officers, and you'll hear more about why that is on this episode. This week's show will highlight how important a solid, thorough pre-approval letter is; not just for the lender but for the buyers agent. ***********************RESOURCES :Massive Agent Business Accelerator: 12 Week Program to go from stressed out solo agent, to thriving business owner

MAP 048: How to Develop the Mindset of Massively Successful Agents and Loan Officers
22/11/2018 Duration: 24minDo you ever wonder how some agents and LO's seem to rocket to success? All the while, you're still grinding it out, making small increases, over YEARS? We all have the same 24 hours in a day, but some people seemingly turn anything they touch into gold, while others, who work more hours in a day, struggle to make a living. It all comes down to... mindset. This week we're focusing on the foundation of a successful agent or LO. Without a solid mental foundation, you can bring in 100 leads a day, but won't be able to have the level of success you should have, had you been firmly grounded with the right mindset for success.Today we'll talk about how you can become one of those "rocketing to success" by focusing on, and developing, the mindset of a champion. "The roots create the fruits", which is exactly how it works with people and what goes on in their heads.You'll learn how to build the mindset of a top producer, and what the path looks like to get there. *****

MAP 047: How to Become the Go To Agent in Your Farm Area w/ Ray Wood
15/11/2018 Duration: 01h04minThis week you’ll learn a specific idea for getting seller leads using a flyer, postcard, door hanger, or even Facebook ad that is so damn clever, it’s bound to get your phone ringing. Some concepts will be true forever, and some strategies will always work. Focusing your real estate marketing efforts in a defined geographical “farm area” is a strategy that will always work. What may change, however, is HOW you go about building name recognition in your farm area. There are countless ways to digitally be seen in your farm area, but let’s not overlook the tried and true methods. Even with all the fancy new lead gen systems, smart CRM’s, Alexa Skills, Flash Briefings, and Facebook Ads… when building your brand and name recognition in your farm area, being physically seen and heard is key. If you’ve been listening to the Massive Agent Podcast for any period of time, you know I’m not a huge fan of flyers. However, in some situations, like covering a small farm area, flyers *with the right message* can be very effe

MAP 045: Our Proven Facebook Ads System AND How to Use the New Facebook Premiere for Video
01/11/2018 Duration: 23minWe're bringing double the awesomeness this episode. Two great topics, one episode. First, we're giving you the Cliffs Notes from our real estate Leads Webinar last week, where we show you how to create our complete, proven Facebook Ad Lead generation system. I'll walk you through the ad we know converts well, how to respond to the leads instantly and automatically, and how to follow up long term. One agent from our webinar reported that in just one day, he received 4 leads at $1.50/each, and already spoke to two of them! Amazing! The stats show that on average, it takes 7-10 "touches" before a lead will respond to you. So if you are giving up after a few attempts, you're leaving a ton of $ on the table. Responding the first time in less than 5 min is also key, because stats show that at least 50% of people end up working with the first agent they talk to. So if you are the first to respond, you have a 50/50 shot at being their agent! Second, we'll tell you about Facebook&apo

MAP 044: Why Zillow Is NOT the Company That Real Estate Agents Should Be Worried About w/ Jason Cassity
25/10/2018 Duration: 01h04minNo single word strikes more fear and anger into the hearts of real estate agents than... wait for it... Zillow! The real estate industry's perennial villain, Zillow, is constantly a topic of conversation and debate between agents on social media, as well as a target for vitriol. But as you'll learn from our special guest, Jason Cassity of The Cassity Team in San Diego, Zillow is really NOT the company that real estate agents and loan officers should be most worried about. Not right now anyways.While the majority of freaked-out Realtors are focusing their energy on Zillow, there's another company disrupting our industry right now, as we speak, in a few of the major markets around the U.S. They openly try to cut Realtors out of the deal as often as possible, and they have some serious VC funding backing them. Past that, there are some far bigger players, with much deeper pockets, and much more power who can shake things up instantly if (or when?) they decide to. You'll learn who these compa

18/10/2018 Duration: 24minThis week I show you how you can use a custom Alexa Skill at an open house or a listing, to deliver information about the property in a clever, cutting edge way.

MAP 042: How to Create a Killer Listing Presentation to Win More Listings
11/10/2018 Duration: 22minYou could be doing everything right; running an awesome Facebook ad, getting the lead, following up with that lead for months until it's time to sell their house, and then when it comes time for the listing presentation... you basically shit the bed. Why? Because your listing presentation sucks! All of us real estate agents want more listings, but if we have a crappy, ineffective listing presentation, we're losing a ton of business that we should have closed. On this episode, I'll tell you how you can duplicate my simple listing presentation. Notice the key word there: simple. It doesn't need a ton of fluff. In fact, if you want it to be effective, it needs to only be focused on two things. How you're able to sell the seller's home for the most, and how smooth the process will be for them. That's it. I'll explain exactly how I do that, on this week's Massive Agent Podcast.***********************RESOURCES :Massive Agent Business Accelerator: 12 Week Program to go fr

20/09/2018 Duration: 24minBoy ohh boy do I have some things to say! I made some pretty interesting observations at a HousingWire conference last week, and will share my takeaways with you. I had the honor of speaking at the Engage.Marketing Conference last week in Dallas, TX about the relationship between a mortgage lender and real estate agent. We focused mostly on what a mortgage lender can do to gain a Realtor's business. Spoiler Alert: most loan officers are doing it completely wrong! We talk about that, but also some trends that are emerging in the real estate industry that you really need to now about. The winds are changing, and YOU will be one of the first to learn how, and have the chance to do something about it.

MAP 035 - Why Earning It and Learning It Always Beats Something Handed to You
23/08/2018 Duration: 19minWith so much entitlement out there these days, it's no wonder why so many real estate agents and loan officers feel like they don't need to, or shouldn't have to, learn how to get their own clients. They join a team where everything is handed to them, they never have to generate their own leads. Unfortunately, they're in for a rude awakening if those leads ever dry up and they have to go out on their own. But I'm here to tell you why having to earn it (aka get your own clients) is infinitely better than being fed business from someone, or something, else. ***********************RESOURCES :Massive Agent Business Accelerator: 12 Week Program to go from stressed out solo agent, to thriving business owner making more, and working less.Referral Network: Claim your market *exclusively* in the new Massive Agent Referral Network - CLICK HERE REAL Broker - Learn how we can be business partners and build a business together @ ΓEA⅃ Broker- CLICK HEREReady to join Real Broker?SIGN UP HERE and if

MAP 033 - How Your Marketing Is Pissing People Off, AND Zillow Gets into Mortgages
09/08/2018 Duration: 23minI hope you're wearing steel toed boots, because this week, I'm stepping on toes! I may just call you out this week for using these crappy marketing tactics, BUT I do it with love. How is anyone supposed to improve if they don't know what to improve on!? I start out briefly talking about the big real estate news this week; Zillow bought a mortgage company and is officially getting into the mortgage game. Want my take on that? Well you'll certainly get it! Then I start jumping up and down on toes, and telling you how you may be pissing people off with your marketing and how you treat your clients at closing. Most of us don't fully think about how our actions or marketing messages are received by the consumer, aka those not in the real estate industry. You need to hear this perspective because most Realtors do the stuff I specifically beg you to stop doing, along with context of why you should stop.
