The Tom Ferry Podcast Experience

You won't find a more insightful real estate Q&A ANYWHERE than at the Success Summit. Thousands of agents of all different levels, from the newbies who just got their licenses to the titans running multi-million-dollar enterprises, come every year to have their most burning questions answered.   We're now in a time where agents are confused; they're scared and need answers more than ever. That's why for this episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience, I want to share the real estate Q&A that agents need to hear today. We have real agents just like you asking the questions, and master coaches Jason Pantana and Jeff Mays giving the answers.   No matter who you are or what you've been struggling with, you're not alone – and I bet you one of the agents in this segment asks something similar. So watch it through as Jason and Jeff rattle off their wisdom in this mind-blowing real estate Q&A.

The best AI tools for real estate agents aren't always the ones you would expect. That's because AI has not just made it easier to automate certain tasks you already do – it has opened a world for you to do things that wouldn't have even been possible before, one where you can innovate and blow away the competition with creativity instead of just marketing dollars.   We're in an AI world, and the agent who is ahead of the game will be the one who wins. On this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana helps you become that creative tech powerhouse by showing you nine jaw-dropping AI tools for real estate agents. These tools will help you: Edit and format videos effortlessly Add special effects and features Automate and integrate your systems  And MUCH MUCH MORE  And these aren't just AI tools for real estate agents – they're for any entrepreneur looking to scale their productivity, output, and content quality. Watch or listen, right here.  

It's not even October yet, which means that you have more than a 90-day cycle to not only finish the year strong but also set yourself up for success in the coming year. What you do right now can completely transform everything that came before it. In this Mindset Monday, I'll tell you what it takes to finish strong.

This episode of the podcast is 25 years in the making. That's how long I've known Keven Stirdivant – since he was a cocky 16-year-old kid asking for a job. Keven's real estate journey is a crazy one, full of ups and downs, but what you'll gain from hearing it is a crazy level of inspiration as you learn how a shift in mindset brought him to the top of his market.    You'll hear his inspiring story of losing everything when his father went to prison, being backed into a corner when he had his first child, working his way up in my company, and starting KASE Real Estate. Keven's real estate journey is a testament to the fact that you are not a product of your environment; you're a product of your goals and mindset.   If you've just begun your own real estate journey – or even if you're just lost in life and considering the possibility of real estate – this is an episode you need to watch.

Your weekly email newsletter is a vital component of your real estate marketing arsenal. This is the absolute No. 1 best way of putting your content in front of people week after week and keeping yourself top-of-mind with consumers.   But in order for that to happen, it has to actually make it into the inboxes of all your contacts. To ensure that happens, Jason Pantana shares his top four adjustments to your weekly email newsletter on This Week in Marketing. When you make these adjustments, you'll not only get more people hooked on your content but also have more of them engaging with it! If you're running a weekly email newsletter (or thinking about it) this really is a MUST-WATCH episode. Check it out here. In this episode, Jason discusses… 0:00 – No canned content 1:41 – No. 1: Scrollable 3:18 – No. 2: Clickable 6:30 – No. 3: Attributable 9:09 – No. 4: Predictable

You want change? You want a better life? Expect resistance. Better yet, plan for it, because great change does not come without resistance. In this Mindset Monday, I'll show you how to handle the two types of resistance you need to plan for.   And if you REALLY want to create change and join a community to help you conquer every obstacle, both internal and external, I'm excited to introduce you to a new challenge all our coaching members are taking on. It's called “100k in 100 Days,” and it's even greater than it sounds. Because everyone who commits to transforming their business by the end of the year gains access to a playbook that Jimmy Mackin and I personally put together. Inside, you'll find everything you need to run the campaigns, beat the resistance, and make the money you desire.   We'd love to have you on board for this. Because if you're guaranteed to add $100,000 to your pipeline in the next three and a half months, what do you have to lose?

What are the most common real estate questions that agents ask me and my coaches?   They change every year. A large part of my job as a coach is to answer questions, so I've gotten into the habit of writing down every question that anyone asks me, whether it's about the market, client interactions, today's best marketing strategies, Ai, or anything else.   A few days before Summit, I take this list of a thousand or so questions, study it, and then synthesize it down to what people are REALLY asking. It turns out that when I boil it down, there are only really seven most common real estate questions that agents are asking.   In this clip from the recent Success Summit, I'm not only going to tell you what they are, but I'll give you my answers to all seven of them. This is something special I felt that every agent needed to hear, so be sure to watch or listen.  

Twenty years is a lot of memories. When I look back on all that time and what it means to me, I can't help but feel profoundly grateful. Normally on Mindset Monday, I'd give you advice or encouragement, but this week, I want to talk about what all of you in the community have given me over the last two decades.

Real estate social media video performance isn't just about the amount of people you reach; it's about the specific audience you want to reach. That's why platforms like Instagram and TikTok are so valuable – because if you work the algorithms correctly, it's possible to pump your content straight to those people in your area looking to buy or sell. To help you push your real estate video content to the right audience, Jason Pantana has three critical “S Factors” of social media video performance. In this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason walks you through how to make your content more Searchable, Streamable, and Shareable, boosting your viewership and the engagement you get from it. Every real estate agent who is killing it on TikTok or Instagram has these S Factors locked down, whether they know it or not. So, I'd recommend you watch or listen to what Jason has to say, then watch your social media video performance skyrocket. In this episode, Jason discusses… 0:00 – Finding the right audience 2:16 – Interaction equals visibility 5:45 – Searchable 9:30 – 1-2-3-NEW 13:51 – Shareable   ------------ Interested in a FREE Coaching Consultation?

If you want to get more listings, you first need to install unstoppable confidence in your mind and your actions. You can't instill it over time; you need to install it today.   There is a cycle that creates fearless action EVERY TIME and I've been using it for the past two decades. For all the real estate agents out there who want to generate more listings, make more money, and feel better about themselves, THIS is the way to do it.   In this clip from my recent Success Summit, I share with you the steps to install unstoppable confidence and the things you need to do to leverage it into taking more real estate listings.   Unstoppable confidence and more transactions start here, so watch or listen now.

When I hear real estate agents saying there are no opportunities in the market, I say that's a self-pitying mindset. The fact is, there is a MASSIVE amount of commission dollars to be had this year. It just might not be you who gets them… unless… In this Mindset Monday, we're going to get very clear on who is going to step up and succeed in today's market.

It's a fact: the recruiting practices you use when building your team will determine the quality and compatibility of the talent you attract – and therefore how much money you make. Because if real estate is all about population and growth, running a brokerage is about just one thing – having quality people to sell more houses.   Emily Kettenburg has been in real estate for 30 years, and today she's helping thousands of teams recruit thousands of agents. Chris Giannos is the CEO of Humanize.io, and he's created a system for helping teams recruit for the level of success he's achieved.   On this episode of the podcast, I'm talking to these two champions of the industry about the best recruiting practices for real estate agents, how to identify talent, and the onboarding strategies that create a winning team.   If you're running a team, this episode is essential. If you're not yet, it's even more important. So watch it, right here.   In this episode, we discuss… 0:00 – Get clear on your avatar 3:35 – Process for identifying talent 9:06 – Onboarding and training 12:31 – Challenges Chris & Emily faced 17:45 – About Humanize 21:36 – Best lead sources for talent 30:00 – Selling value without overselling 35:45 – Growth without attrition 41:35 – Worst recruiting mistakes 47:00 – Summing it up

If you want to succeed in your business, make money, and live the life you desire, it all comes down to the number of appointments you go on. Appointments are the lifeblood of our business. But how many conversations do you need to have to get just one appointment? Across all my clients, there's one number that comes up, and it might be the secret to success. That's what I'm talking about on this Mindset Monday.

Why is it that two people can enter the same career on the same trajectory and one flourishes while the other remains stagnant? It's often a matter of exposure. One was exposed to the wisdom, guidance, or inspiration they needed, while the other was left on their own. In this episode of Mindset Monday, we're talking about how you can get the exposure you need to charge forward.

Plainly said, Ai for real estate agents is a miracle. It's your way of getting a lot more done in a lot less time.   Take Mark Pattison for example. He's running a monster team (PorchLight Realty – 68 agents) while also starting a liquor brand, a coffee brand, and several other businesses. There aren't enough hours in the day to manage everything he's responsible for… That's why he leverages an impressive Ai tech stack to supercharge his productivity and act as if there were several of him.   In this episode of the podcast, I talk with Mark about the best Ai for real estate agents trying to scale their businesses more efficiently. You'll learn the applications you should be using and the best ways to use them.   The best Ai for real estate agents is just a click away. Watch or listen right here.

If you're not taking advantage of agent-to-agent referrals, you're missing out on a HUGE chunk of business that you could not have won any other way. You know that in real estate, relationships are everything. This is especially true when it comes to agent-to-agent referrals. So how do you find and foster these money-making agent-to-agent relationships? In this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana shows you six channels for doing just that. He'll help you build a network of like-minded agents who are happy to send business your way and who you can do the same for. This is how everyone wins. Just watch or listen, then start earning some agent-to-agent referrals! In this episode, Jason discusses… 0:55 – A disclaimer on agent-to-agent referrals 1:33 – Social media 5:50 – Conference events 9:10 – Brand/brokerage/boards 11:04 – Networks & masterminds 13:03 – Agent targeting 18:20 – CTAs And if you're really serious about building a super lucrative network for agent-to-agent referrals, there is one place better than any other for starting those relationships… It's a place where thousands of the most serious agents from around the world are gathering to sharpen their skills, brainstorm ideas, and network with other agents. It's the 20th annual Success Summit, happening in Dallas, TX, and via Livestream, August 22-24. This year's theme is “The Path Forward” for a reason – and it's not about traveling that path alone. https://www.tomferry.com/summit/

Imagine if your life was so easy that you never failed at anything… Imagine that all your deals closed perfectly without any effort and you could just sustain that for years… Would you feel strong? Would you feel inspired? Challenge is a gift, and in this episode of Mindset Monday I'll show you the mindset adjustment you need to embrace it.

You need a real estate action plan if something isn't working in your business. Change doesn't come from wishful thinking or running the same old plays. It comes from calculated thoughts and an intentional mindset – and that requires a plan.   In this episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience, I have mega-successful team leader and coach Doug Edrington to help you build your real estate action plan for getting back on track when you feel like you're floundering. As someone who has been in the business for 18 years and is set to do 500 transactions this year, he knows how to correct course when things go wrong.   We're talking about some of the most important aspects of your business to focus on, the mindset adjustments that create stability, and how to get out of procrastination and into momentum.   If you've been running plays without results, quit it. Do this instead. Just watch or listen here and build your real estate action plan today.

Real estate Google search rankings are a lot like pursuing stardom. Sure, you can sit around hoping you get “discovered,” but those who succeed the most are almost always those who put in the work. Getting “found” and “preferred” more often by Google requires intentional effort. And in today's episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana goes deep into the weeds with 9 Google Business Profile “cheat codes” designed to improve your real estate Google search ranking. A word of warning: The advice in this episode gets a little complex at times, but if it wasn't worthwhile, we wouldn't be talking about it. So if you have marketing support, a web developer you work with, or an IT person on your team, you'll probably want to ask them to watch this with you. And then when you implement what you learned, you can watch your Google search rankings soar! In this episode, Jason discusses: 2:07 – Cheat code 1: Harnessing Categories and Services 6:52 – Cheat code 2: On-Page SEO Essentials 13:08 – Cheat code 3: Optimize Your NAP 14:20 – Cheat code 4: Including Your Location 15:20 – Cheat code 5: Establishing Location Authority 16:00 – Cheat code 6: Harmonizing External Business Listings 17:07 – Cheat code 7: Developing Service-Specific Web Pages 19:02 – Cheat code 8: Capitalizing on Keyword-Rich Reviews 21:04 - Cheat code 9: Outthinking the Search Engines to Get Found More Often ------------ Interested in a FREE Coaching Consultation?

Finding inspiration isn't hard if you know where to look – and where to NOT look. You have to know where to go because inspiration is what will carry you through those moments when you're not motivated and don't know what to do. Don't wait for it to come; go get it yourself. I'll show you where in this Mindset Monday.

A real estate team is like a scientific chemistry experiment. You're combining a bunch of different elements to try to create a beautiful result. But sometimes the chemicals might react in a way you didn't expect and explode.   When this happens, your survival depends on the precautions you set in place, and that's what we're talking about on this episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience. I have two awesome real estate team leaders Daniel Dixon and Meredith Fogle, who have been through quite a few implosions and explosions themselves – some of them intentional.   If you're running a real estate team, this one is for you, especially if you haven't experienced an implosion yet.

Tracking in digital marketing is changing. With privacy issues and controversies surrounding cookies and data sharing coming to the public light, a lot of marketers are learning that the tricks that worked for targeting audiences yesterday are disappearng today. On the on hand, this is a good thing for protecting our privacy. But on the other, data tracking in digital marketing is how we were able to make our content truly effective. Is there a happy medium of the two that everyone can be happy with? Jason Pantana and his guest on This Week in Marketing, Audience.co CEO Jesse Stein, say there definitely is. All you have to do is know the right strategies for navigating the landscape. In this episode, they discuss the changes to data tracking in digital marketing you need to know about and solutions for getting even better results and a more finely targeted audience. Real estate marketers, this one is for all of you. Watch or listen here.

If you're a real estate agent who follows my channels and hears what I have to say, you know what you need to do in your business. I believe that you already know what will solve the issues you're having. So if you KNOW what to do and nothing is happening, what's the problem? I bet you know the answer to that too. I sure do. It's what we're talking about in this Mindset Monday.  

Digital real estate events are HOT right now – trust me, I do a lot of them. And one of the best things about them is that you can customize your events to suit your goals.   Mary Bartos uses digital real estate events for more than just attracting leads. In scaling her team, events have played a vital role in her recruiting process. And in this episode of the podcast, I talk with Mary about how she's leveraging platforms like Zoom to host webinars that are pulling in both referrals and new agents, all without the hefty costs of traditional in-person events.   She'll show you exactly what to do at every stage – pre, during, and post – of your digital real estate events. Just watch or listen, right here.  

Let's get this straight – you're writing your Instagram bio for generating leads. You're not writing it for explaining yourself or being cute. As a real estate professional, your goal is to show leads who you are and position them to like you, trust you, and take the next step toward working with you.   In this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana shows you how to craft a wildly compelling Instagram bio for generating leads. He takes you line by line through the process of structuring a bio that gets leads hooked and naturally encourages them to continue the process of making a connection with you.   With only 150 characters, every single one of them counts for generating leads. So watch or listen, right here, and start optimizing your Instagram bio.

This is the life you have. You can do anything you want with it. And if there are going to be natural struggles no matter what, why wouldn't you go for something insanely big? There are two things that lead to a massive breakthrough. You only need one of them, and in this Mindset Monday, I'm going to show you what they are and how to create the right one.

In a low inventory market, getting the listing appointment can be almost as challenging as closing the deal. We're in such a competitive space that real estate agents are getting shut down before they even have a chance to show what they're capable of.   Have you reached out to a withdrawn or expired listing and heard that they're staying put because they're waiting for the market to change?   If you have, I'm sitting with three MEGA Rockstars who between them are set to close 500 listings by the end of this year: Scott Reynolds and his top listing agent, Kathleen Pogany, and Carolyn Young. And on this episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience, they'll show you the scripts that are working for getting the listing appointment in a super competitive environment.   A low inventory market shouldn't stop you – it doesn't stop them. So watch or listen right here to learn what getting the listing appointment is all about.

There are a lot of reasons to upgrade your email marketing strategy… For starters, do you know how many people use email? 4.37 BILLION. That's how many. And 99% of them check their inboxes daily. For you, that makes email the greatest marketing opportunity of all time – but only if you know how to make each send as effective as it can possibly be. In this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana shows you 10 genius hacks to upgrade your email marketing so that you get more views, more loyal subscribers, and ultimately more business. This is a technical episode that's essentially a mini course in effective email marketing. So watch it through, then be sure to test out some of the tools Jason recommends, such as https://www.omnisend.com/subject-line-tester/ And if you're seeing results from what he shares here and want to get MASSIVE exposure from your email marketing, be sure to check out Jason's full course, “MarketingPRO: Inbox Hero” at: https://www.tomferry.com/marketingpro/ In this episode, Jason discusses… 0:00 – Upgrade your email marketing 2:40 – No. 1: Subject line 7:38 – No. 2: Preview text 9:35 – No. 3: Sender name 13:02 – No. 4: Personalization 16:48 – No. 5: Mobile optimization 19:10 – No. 6: Nested CTAs 20:48 – No. 7: Integrate videos 21:38 – No. 8: Everything “clickable” 24:42 – No. 9: Authentication 27:48 – No. 10: Automated welcome message ------------ Interested in a FREE Coaching Consultation?

Are there things you know you should have finished but you keep putting them off? The bad news is it's only going to get harder, because the more open loops you have, the more your performance suffers. In this Mindset Monday, I show you the first step to closing those loops. Hint: it's a question and you may already know it, but that doesn't make it any less powerful.

If you're running a team or planning to, the calls you need to be making are recruiting calls. Because if you're serious about scaling your business and serving more people, your agents are your clients – and other agents are your prospects.   Lisa Chinatti was already a super successful team leader at the beginning of this year, but something I said at our past Elite Retreat event struck her. She realized that she wasn't immune from making her calls every day. The difference between her and her team was that she needed to be making recruiting calls. Just a few months later, she's gone from 72 agents to 115 onboarded.   In this episode of the podcast, I talk with Lisa about why leaders need to be making recruiting calls to agents, what they should say on the phone, and what it takes to create a sustainable business in today's market.   If you're a team leader looking to establish a sustainable business in today's market, what Lisa has to say is crucial to your team's growth, so watch or listen, right here. 

Did you know that there are rules of real estate marketing? By that, I mean there is a set of principles by which marketing works to achieve its intended effect, and if you understand and follow these principles, you're almost certain to get what you want (more leads). And if you don't follow them? Well, I guess you could just call that experimenting. In this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana is going to shine a light on the seven unwritten rules of real estate marketing, because once you understand them, they're a lot easier to follow. And it's important to keep in mind that these are the rules of REAL ESTATE marketing – not just any old type of marketing. They're not quite the same. So, if you're in this industry, this is a set of rules you should be living by.

As a real estate agent, getting signed contracts is the goal. Producing lots and lots of video content is the way to do it.   That's right… Content is the key to getting signed contracts at a larger scale – not just a way of gaining popularity. To prove it, I have two Rockstar content creators, Jen Dillard and Chris Kwon, who will show you their video content strategies for attracting and closing more and more clients, even as nationwide transactions have slowed down.   If Jen and Chris don't inspire you to quit resisting and start producing video, then I don't know what do to for you. But if you want to know the strategies that work, watch or listen right here.

When the inventory is this scarce, you need to multiply every real estate listing you have.

What stops you from making videos? I'm willing to bet it's fear of the camera. Jason Pantana, one of the greatest social media marketing geniuses working in real estate today, says that in his experience, fear of the camera is what is holding agents back from their highest potential. Because today, social media demands more content of you than ever before. In this short clip from our Elite Retreat event, Jason shared the most important mindset shift you can make to get out of your head and conquer your fear of the camera.

If you're working your database, hopefully you're familiar with the tactic of sending an unsolicited real estate CMA. While that's a killer strategy, did you know there's an even better version?
