The average agent loses 70% of past clients simply by forgetting to show up in person. That’s right, the “P” in HOP (aka People) could be the easiest way to grow your real estate business in 2026 without spending another cent on ads or learning the latest TikTok trend you secretly hate.
In this episode, I break down how meeting clients in person builds trust faster than any chatbot ever could. Spoiler? Robots can’t hug. I share how coffee chats, client events, and good old-fashioned thank-you notes keep my real estate referrals rolling in, one latte at a time.
You’ll learn how to: • Plan low-cost real estate events that actually get people to show up • Create easy one-on-one systems for real estate agents to connect weekly • Turn casual meetups into long-term real estate leads and listings • Use handwritten cards (yes, paper still exists) to grow client retention
Forget automation for a second and just be human, it still works. Comment your favorite client event idea and subscribe for more sarcastically honest real estate marketing tips.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
