From apple orchards to award-winning broker, Mike Blake’s journey is anything but ordinary.
In this powerhouse episode of Real Estate Agent Life, Shane and Duane sit down with their longtime friend and fraternity brother to uncover how Mike went from patenting products and selling his first $50k home… to running a 200+ transaction team pacing over 350 deals a year.
Mike drops game-changing insights on:
- Why business plans fail (and how his daily screenshot habit keeps him on track)
- The marketing moves that made clients call him first — years before it was cool
- How 50% reinvestment, time-blocking, and showing up every day built his empire
- The mindset shift that grew his revenue share group from 31 agents to 480 in just 20 months
- The biggest mistake that cost him more than money — and the lesson every agent needs to hear
It’s raw, it’s funny (wait ‘til you hear the Miami story), and it’s full of wisdom for agents, leaders, and entrepreneurs who want to scale without losing their edge.
