From new agent to top producer, this video is going to help you. Now here's the deal. There's just as many real estate agents leaving the market as they are entering the market. People are coming through and know this, especially if you're new, that what you learned during your real estate license and the classes that you took have absolutely nothing at all to do with real estate. And for those of you that have not had the best couple of years or even had amazing years, you need to know that what you did the past couple of years is not going to work in the next. This video is going to break all of that down. I mean, think about it. The new agents entering the market, the Gen Z era, they are tech sappy. They know how to use social media and video that's really, really comfortable for them. So they're going to be using innovation and technology and incorporating that into their real estate business to beat a top producer agent who is very, very stagnant. So the first thing, whether you're new or experienced, you need to create a business plan. What are you going to do as a new agent to stand out? Right? What are you going to do as an experienced agent to be different and innovative, to make sure that everybody knows. So before you start producing content or anything else, have a clear business plan for 20, 25 and beyond. So a good business plan is going to be your guide to getting closer to your end goal. It's going to keep you on track, checking off that list and letting you know exactly what to do next so you can continue to progress. Here's the deal. So many agents think they can just get their real estate license and just dive right in. No, you actually need to create your business. You need to build your business. You need to think like a business person because none of these things were taught to you when you got your license. So you're a business owner now. Second thing you need to be thinking about is what is your marketing plan? What's your strategy around marketing properties not only for yourself, right, to get yourself out in front of everybody, but also how are you going to market your properties. So when you learn how to show up in front of people, be what I call a community market leader, be seen consistently talking about various things about the market, the industry, what's happening on that's a marketing plan and people are going to get to know who you are. Another aspect of your marketing plan and that you're going to be thinking about while you're creating your personal plan for the year is how am I going to market my properties, how am I going to get a distinction my properties from other people? How am I going to be able to make sure that my properties are getting massive exposure so that I can then take that information and bring it with me on a listing appointment that shows people how I am different and what differentiates me from my competition? So news slash veteran agents, the things that you used to do do not work anymore. People aren't going to the magazine to look people up. People are afraid to even answer the phone half the time or answer the door. So you're going to have to be showing up where people are looking. People are looking online, they're going to Google, they're going to social media. Are you showing up where they are looking? When they are looking on Facebook, are you showing up or Zillow? Your marketing presence within your business plan is going to have a huge aspect to do that because people need to know who you are, what you do, and how you can help them and what differentiates you from them. Your marketing is going to do this for you. Real estate's getting much more competitive, so having an actual marketing plan for yourself and also a marketing plan that you do for your clients. When you show up on a listing appointment, you can show them how many engagements that you had, how many hours of watch time, how many people actually visited the site and actually looked at that video and saw it, and it differentiates you from your competition. You can use it to win the listing. You can use it before the listing, send them a quick little video clip, letting them know what makes you different, what makes you unique, so that you can win before you arrive and show your value to win that listing before you even get there. Number three, if you want to be a top producer, you need to know that your job is not just about making a sale and getting that buyer seller, it's about making a connection with them. Truly, truly listening to them, answering questions that they have that they don't even know they should know about, about educating them about what the process is, what they can expect, and doing it like, in a manner that is easy for them to follow. It builds trust with you and it makes them wanting more. So education is going to be a key aspect as a new agent and also as a top producer, because new agents are starting to do those things. So, you know, agents get a bad rap because they think that we just get paid so much money for absolutely doing nothing. You need to be able to differentiate what you do and explain to them, tell them all the crazy things that we do on the back end. And one of the best times to do that is before you even get there. So think about it. When you give your clients a great service, you exceed their expectations. You educate them, you give them questions, answer they never even knew they had. What happens is, is they are more likely to refer you. They're going to tell all of their friends about you. They're not going to forget you. Google shows that a happy client is 30% more likely when you give good experience to refer you. That's a pretty good number. So make sure you give them the best experience ever. And number four, leveraging technology. You've got to have some type of a CRM, right? You need to be organized from the beginning. Ways to communicate with your clients in a very systematic, organized, easy way just by pushing a button. So the idea is to stay top of mind during the transaction, before the transaction, and most importantly after the transaction. So utilize systems, utilize technology like ChatGPT. Make sure you get 4.0. Spend the 20 bucks a month to use ChatGPT to help you with your marketing plan, your organization, your workflows, your follow up. Or you could just say, krista, give me a free copy of your CRM and all that's already been done for you. You get the point, right? And number five, lastly, continuous education. I mean think about just the last five years alone. We have had so many changes in the industry that happened almost instantaneously overnight. So are you keeping up with the trends? Are you keeping up with what's happening nationally, locally? Are you educating people about it? Are you telling them about it? Make sure that you are educating people as well as educating yourself. What is new, what's innovative? What can you use that differentiates yourself from your competitors? That's very easy to spot. The easiest way for a top producer to stay a top producer and the easiest way for a newbie to beat a top producer is by being innovative, different and unique and adapting technology to make your life easier, their life easier, to make it a seamless transaction. So that makes it impossible for them to forget and know who you are. So I hope this is helpful for you. Be sure to like and then comment and subscribe.
