WTF just happened? Joel Sharpton from Louisianna produces my podcast each week. We like to get on the phone and chat about stuff. This time we recorded it. :-)
Today's guest is one of my favourite humans.
Super Agent Nyree Ewings is a phenomenal success. Last year she recorded GCI of $1.3 million which came from 94 sales and 140 listings. So let's take a quick look at those numbers for a sec. If you take a day off each week and a few week's vacation, that's one listing every two days.
Nyree's no-nonsense approach to jumping in and getting things done consistently wins her amazing results and if you're familiar with the 'whatever it takes' philosophy, she's living breathing proof that it works.
She's successfully grown her career in the past 12 years starting as a stand-alone salesperson and growing her brand and personal following to hire 2 assistants and build an amazing team
A big reason why I love hosting guests like Nyree is that she has the power to inspire so many people and if you're new to real estate, you're about to get a raw and real look at what it takes to thrive in one of the most competitive industries there is.
If you're not new to real estate and not getting the results you want, then can I urge you to listen closely to this episode and take special note of the things that jump out at you. I believe the power of a good podcast is that it will speak to you about the things that are important and help you with the changes you need to make.
And hey, if you're killing it then awesome. In fact, if you're listing more than 100 properties a year, I'd love to feature you as a guest on the show.
But I know many of my listeners are in the early stages of their career and looking for real and tangible ideas they can quickly implement. So here are 5 rules I've picked up along the way to get you started:
Okay, I'm delighted to present my second interview with Nyree. Our first was episode #28 almost 5 years ago and she has well and truly powered on since then.
I know you'll get a heap of valuable takeaways from this session including some very interesting operational ideas on how Nyree runs her business and is continually building momentum.
I love featuring interviews with authors.
Having the discipline, let alone, time to write a book is a skill I really admire.
It's not complicated... A good non-fiction, 'how to' book shares the essential knowledge promised on the cover.
My guest for this episode is author and Ohio agent Derek Tye.
There are two main reasons why Derek and his team are killing it in Cincinnati: The first reason is because they work a system (which is exactly what Derek's book is about) The second is because they have a plan and follow it.
In case you don't know, I never really prepare for my interviews. I used to when I started out but I quickly discovered I would go off-script because some shiny thing would always come up and there's where I like to go.
It's a little bit like being in a listing presentation and searching for some common ground. An old habit I guess.
Anyway, as you'll hear, Derek and I worked out that we're both Tony Robbins fans and he reminded me of a free test Tony offers online.
It's kind of a personality strengths and weaknesses assessment, or as it says on the website 'Understand your personality to get ahead in your career, to communicate better in your relationships and understand your personal patterns'
So I did the test and was kind of flattered with the summary. Especially this bit. Check it out. It says and I quote "You have the ability to persuade others, not with hype but rather with warmth, sincerity and understanding. This skill comes from the merging of your people skills along with the fact that you tend to be more modest when dealing with people"
Well I guess it could have been worse!
The test took me about 20 minutes and I'd like to suggest you try it. And what about this for an idea, if you're hiring, ask them to do the test and send you their results.

I really enjoyed my call with Derek. His book? '7 Levers for Success in Selling Real Estate' went live in paperback and Kindle on Amazon last week. The link and Derek's contact info is in the show notes.
I'm delighted to present another interview in the super-agent series and my guest for this episode is currently ranked in the top 100 agents in Australia.
I define a super-agent as anyone earning more than a million dollars a year in gross commission.
These are the agents others look to for inspiration and ideas. They're better organized, with better systems and a highly productive marketing plan that continually feeds their new business pipeline.
Today's guest is a quiet achiever who sticks to the tasks that win results and I have a feeling you're going to get a lot of takeaways from this episode.

Sydney's James Baker listed 47 homes in 2019 and sold 40 giving him a GCI number very close to $2 million.
James has a story that's not unique in real estate success. He has a proven plan and it works so he keeps doing it.
Perhaps it's the discipline and focus that keeps him on top year after year. After all, his area of Sydney's Northern Beaches is some of the most highly-priced and sought after real estate in the world.
And where you find high-priced property, you find a very competitive local real estate industry with literally hundreds of agents all competing for business.
In this interview, you'll discover how James cuts through to stand out from others, how he keeps his days-on-market low and how his loyal client base acts as his most important referral network.
