Episode 76 - Murdock and Marvel: 2009 Part 1 2009 was a tough year for comics, in that sales declined and a number of stores (nearly 50% in some areas) closed their doors.  Closings of Waldenbooks and other book outlets also made getting product into customers' hands difficult.  We also saw cover prices rise, even as the recession continued to impact fans ability to spend. The Year in Comics  Comics in Other Media DC Comics Other Publishers Sales & Industry Information Beginnings & Endings Eisner Awards Dan's Favorite The Year in Marvel In many ways these were the darkest days of the Marvel Universe, at least in terms of the stories told in the 616.  Evil was ascendant and heroes were on the run.

One of the simplest yet most powerful lead generation strategies in real estate is also the one most often overlooked: calling the people you already know. In this session, we focused on reconnecting with your sphere of influence such as friends, family, past colleagues, and community contacts to strengthen relationships and open the door to referrals.We introduced the “Ford Sandwich” method using F.O.R.D. (Family, Occupation, Recreation, Dreams) to begin and end conversations on a personal note while naturally weaving in real estate questions in the middle. This approach makes your calls authentic, conversational, and effective at uncovering opportunities that might otherwise be missed.The key takeaway is that your sphere wants to hear from you. When you show up as a resource not just for them but for the people they know you create trust, expand your reach, and plant the seeds for future business. Consistency, curiosity, and care are what turn simple check-ins into long term success.Special thanks to Ask Broker Dan for contributing valuable insights toward the end of today's practice.

In this episode, Carl sits down with co-host Kristin Simpson to break down the real math behind hiring a dedicated caller. They share how one simple role can put you in front of hundreds of top-producing agents every year without you having to make a single cold call yourself. You'll hear why even just one appointment a day can add up to massive closings, how to find callers in the right places without overpaying, and the exact scripts and meeting structures that convert Zoom appointments into steady referrals. If you've ever wondered whether bringing on a caller is worth the cost, this conversation shows how the numbers stack up in a way that can completely change your pipeline.

Episode 573 Welcome to Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast in the country for loan officers, hosted by Carl White. In this episode, Carl sits down with Kristin Simpson to tackle one of the most common and misunderstood questions in the business: “How many leads do I actually need to hit my closing goals?” They break down the exact ratios that top producers track, why simply chasing more leads isn't always the answer, and how to spot the real bottlenecks holding you back. You'll hear how to measure the four key stages of your pipeline, where most LOs lose deals, and what small process shifts can instantly boost your conversion rate. If you've been wondering how to close more loans without adding more to your lead count, this conversation gives you the clarity and math you need to make it happen.

Closings one month, crickets the next?If your income feels unpredictable—and you're constantly guessing what to focus on—you're not alone. Most real estate agents were never taught how to create a consistent pipeline. But the good news? There's a fix—and it starts with knowing your numbers.In this episode, I'm breaking down how to reverse-engineer a $100K income goal into daily action.You'll learn:How to calculate how many homes you need to closeThe exact formula for figuring out how many appointments and conversations you need each dayA simple system to create consistency, clarity, and predictability in your business

These days, it's harder than ever for marginalized buyers to break into the market. Prices are high, lending rules are tighter, and misinformation is everywhere. The path to homeownership can feel impossible. Agents aren't off the hook either. With all the changes to buyer representation and compensation, agents are being asked to prove their value in every single deal, while trying to serve clients who need more help than ever. That's where Midwest Home M@tch comes in. We built an AI-powered referral network that connects agents with pre-approved, ready-to-go buyers. Especially those who qualify for down payment assistance, employer housing support, parishioner programs, and more.  These aren't just leads,  they're matches. And the system is built to help agents close deals that would otherwise fall through the cracks. What are some of the things you'll get with Midwest Home M@tch? How is this referral network different?  In this episode, I'm joined by creative design, brand development expert, and my partner in Midwest Home M@tch, Anita Clinton.  We get into how this all works, how agents can plug in, and why the future of real estate might just be about matching people to money, not just homes.   If real estate agents implemented down payment assistance, 30% of deals that are canceled would be salvageable. -Marki Lemons Ryhal   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The real estate anointing advantage How can you tell if a property has access to $25K in down payment assistance? How can you use that to market the home and keep your seller's concessions at zero? Reverse prospecting with precision What if you could clone a listing, test buyer demand across multiple price points, and already know what buyers are searching for before you even list? AI automation that actually closes deals How is Midwest Home M@tch using AI automation to pre-qualify buyers, trigger CRM workflows, and deliver leads with signed buyer agreements, all before they reach you? From overlooked to oversubscribed How can we stack grants, gift funds, and employer housing programs to revive up to 30% of canceled deals?   Guest Bio With almost two decades of creative design, brand development, marketing, editorial, and business development experience, Anita “AC” Clinton is the go-to person for all aspects of purpose. She is passionate about helping individuals use their talent(s) and experience to unlock their true calling, know where they fit in the world, and be who they are meant to be.

Send us a textFrom pulling network cables to helping MSPs plan their exits—Rayanne Buchianico's journey is one of purpose, perseverance, and transformation. In this inspiring episode from IT Nation Secure 2025, Joey Pinz speaks with Rayanne and fellow trailblazer Rhea about their paths into the MSP world and how they're driving change through specialized services and support.

In this episode, Jim Garrity argues for more frequent videotaping of depositions, especially those of parties and witnesses likely to be unavailable at trial. The reason? Unlike live witnesses - who are generally called once in trial - videotaped testimony can be played two or more times. This technique utilizes one of the most effective tools of persuasion ever invented, repetition, borrowed straight from Madison Avenue, where repetition is everything. Clips played during the trial, during closing, and sometimes in opening by consent or court order, allow you to essentially present the same witness and testimony multiple times. This kind of repetition isn't possible with live witnesses, and is far superior to reading deposition transcripts to the jury. In a world where people are accustomed to getting their information through video, reading a transcript of testimony is likely to test your jurors' attention span (and patience). Garrity discusses a UCLA professor's "7-38-55 rule" to underscore the point. The gist of this rule is that when people communicate, only 7% of the message is conveyed through words, 38% through tone and voice, and a whopping 55% through body language. That's what makes the presentation of deposition testimony by video clips so powerful. Listen in!SHOW NOTESSmith, et al. v. City of Chicago, etc., Case No. 21-cv-1159, 2025 WL 1744919 (N. D. Ill.

This week, I sat down with none other than Brad Allen, co-owner and broker-in-charge at The Art of Real Estate, and a total powerhouse when it comes to building systems, scaling smart, and keeping the client experience front and center. We talk about: Brad Allen shares how he started from zero—literally—in a brand-new market where he knew no one, and how he built a thriving business rooted in relationships and results. We talk about why professionalism still matters, even in a world of viral TikToks and jean shorts, and how showing up like a pro can be your ultimate competitive edge. We also dive into the “messy middle” of today's real estate landscape—lawsuits, commissions, AI, and everything in between—and how agents can stay grounded through it all. Brad reminds us that clients aren't “crazy”—they're often just confused, and it's our job to provide the clarity they deserve. Most of all, this conversation is a testament to what's possible when you build your business on grit, systems, and service—not gimmicks. Whether you're a team leader, solo agent, or just someone trying to navigate this ever-changing market, Brad brings the kind of perspective this industry needs more of—honest, humble, and hella strategic.

Have you ever looked at your calendar, realized you had no loans coming in, and felt a wave of fear wash over you? You're not alone. Every great originator has faced that moment—the question is, do you freeze… or do you get out there and build the relationships that feed your business for years to come?In this episode of The 360 Experience, Tim sits down with Caryn Grafton—one of the top 1% of originators in the country, with over 5,500 loans funded and decades of experience building unstoppable momentum through Realtor and builder relationships. Caryn shares the exact steps she took to go from buying newspaper ads and cold-calling leads to closing 200 million in a year, all by working by referral—and teaching new loan officers to do the same.

SHOW NOTES: Covid was a surprise, but not completely unexpected. Financial people were prepared for some "big event." The scientific, medical, and political responses were mixed, politicized, and hurtful. In retrospect, was it necessary to suspend schools and deny kids of years of learning and socialization; to prevent families from assembling for important occasions; to shut down businesses and drive some into bankruptcy; to endanger the arts, and see cultural activities stopped, sometimes permanently; to create increased sense of fear, isolation, and helplessness. Closings, suspensions, masks, distancing were clearly huge overreactions, and perhaps completely unnecessary. What IS clear is that the failure to create bipartisan approaches which found and promoted only the best and most reasonable reactions were not present, and not even sought. It was equivalent of social media and conspiracies and absurd opinions. And it encouraged fraud in claims made for financial assistance, circumvention of rules, disrespect for medical opinion. Billions were wasted, and cheats and crooks are still being arrested. This has contributed to a sense of powerlessness, of low self-worth, and of mistrust in the system. This is an age of low trust in government, journalism, entertainment, education, and religion. We need to create more trust in ourselves. We need to demand more, and we need to stop being content voting for the "least worst candidate."

Is it possible to achieve your biggest results yet while actually working less? Absolutely! Join Eric Thompson on the Ninja Selling Podcast as he welcomes Deanna Foreman of Coldwell Banker Vanguard Realty in Jacksonville, Florida, and her Ninja Coach, Jon Hill. Deanna shares her inspiring journey of how she achieved her best first quarter ever (17 closings!) and is on pace for her best second quarter, all while reclaiming her time and creating better work-life harmony. Deanna, a dedicated Ninja who has attended six installations and Ninja Now, discusses the pivotal decision to "level up" her business and engage with coaching. Learn how, with Jon's guidance, she shifted from working "25/8" (as her daughter affectionately put it) to implementing intentional business hours, taking Sundays off, and focusing her efforts. This episode explores the power of mindset, the importance of setting clear expectations with clients, and the courage to say "no" to situations that don't align with your value (like requests for commission discounts). Discover Deanna's practical strategies, such as her "monthly admin day" for proactive planning, and how simple tools like a timer can create focus and urgency. Jon Hill shares the coach's perspective on Deanna's remarkable progress, highlighting her commitment as a "100% implementer" and her willingness to step outside her comfort zone. This conversation is packed with actionable takeaways for any agent looking to boost their productivity, protect their time, and build a more fulfilling business.

Episode Highlights: Introducing Deanna Foreman (Coldwell Banker Vanguard Realty, Jacksonville, FL) & Ninja Coach Jon Hill Deanna's Record-Breaking Q1 2025: 17 Closings and on Pace for Best Q2 The "Why" Behind Deanna's Multiple Installation Attendances: Mindset Reset and Continuous Learning The Decision to Level Up: Deanna's Commitment to Growth From "25/8" to Work-Life Harmony: Implementing Business Hours and Taking Sundays Off Setting Expectations with Clients: Communicating Availability and Value The Power of Intentionality: Working Smarter, Not Harder Deanna's "Monthly Admin Day": A Strategy for Proactive Planning Red Flags: Recognizing and Addressing Requests for Commission Discounts The "100% Implementer": Deanna's Commitment to Taking Action The Value of Coaching: Accountability, Mindset Shifts, and Strategic Guidance   Key Takeaways: "This is my fifth installation. I have increased my business every year since... I'm gonna take my business to the next level." "[The installation is] a complete reset... you're getting different things from it because depending on where you are in your business and in your life, you're going to take different things from it." "I'm my own biggest competitor, and I'm just constantly striving for whatever I feel is next." "In order to... go to the next level... we need to go slower to go faster. We need to fill your cup." "[My daughter] would say, 'Mama, you work 25/8. Like, what are you doing?'" "I'm much more intentional during the time that I am working." "[Using a timer] makes you focus and keep things going. And you're always racing the clock. So it's almost like a game." "If someone is asking for a discount, they don't recognize the value, the true value you bring to the table." "She is someone that, once we agree on a call, I have zero doubt that... she will go out there and try. She will take what we talk about and put it into action."

What's the difference between a pipeline that dries up and one that keeps producing? One word: follow-up. In this episode, I'm diving deep into the art (and science) of follow-up in your real estate business. Whether your lead timeline is five days or five months, staying top of mind is how you build trust—and close deals. I'll walk you through: The mindset shift that changes follow-up from “annoying” to “serving” Why 80% of sales happen after 5+ follow-ups (but most agents stop after one!) A simple weekly update system you can use with current clients My favorite real-life follow-up scripts to reconnect with leads How to nurture long-term prospects and stay in their orbit until they're ready Plus, I'm sharing the exact structure I used during my sales career to consistently follow up with listings, buyers, and even long-term nurtures—without dropping the ball. If you've ever struggled with what to say, how often to reach out, or feared “bothering” someone, this episode will help you reframe, refocus, and re-engage.
