Episode Highlights: 

 

• It's saying that the listings are down and your income will be down 30%.

• Curtis agrees and says that it’s because of agents' strategy that helps them get more listings.

• Curtis emphasizes the importance of building relationships with people in their sphere of influence
• He discusses how to bridge the gap between people they know but haven't done business with, highlighting the importance of having a strategy to remind them of their real estate services.
• Consistently posting videos about real estate market updates can help build credibility and attract potential clients
• He recognizes the importance of referrals from past clients, as they are more likely to trust and refer someone based on their reputation.
• Unrealistic expectations about sphere of influence and lack of focus on building a reputation in real estate are common reasons for not getting listings.
• Agents need to leverage social media to build a reputation as an expert in real estate
• He encourages listeners to reassess their sphere of influence and set realistic goals for the number of deals they can expect from their closest contacts, rather than relying on generic marketing strategies
