Send Us A MessageMost real estate agents are expected to be skilled negotiators, yet receive zero training in this critical area—the very skill that disappoints clients most according to NAR surveys. This episode tackles the fundamental gap between expectation and reality in real estate negotiations, presenting a collaborative approach that transforms adversarial "take, take, take" dynamics into win-win solutions that actually close dealsFeatured Quote: "Most people think negotiating is take, take, take. Actually, if you find out what's really critically important to the other person and you give that to them, they're going to close. It makes your life so much simpler because all the negotiations after the preliminary one come together much more gracefully."What You Will LearnCollaborative negotiation strategies that focus on problem-solving rather than adversarial positioningThe asymmetry principle - finding low-cost concessions that provide high value to the other partyWhy empathy remains irreplaceable even as AI tools become more sophisticated in real estateHow to identify what truly matters to the other party beyond just price considerationsThe critical difference between distributive (fixed pie) and collaborative negotiation approachesPractical tools and resources for developing genuine negotiation skills in your practiceFuture-proofing your value by mastering human connection skills that AI cannot replicateThe opinions on this podcast are the hosts and guests involved and not in any way a reflection of RE/MAX or anyone else in the industry.Listen to the Podcast on these PlatformsApple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/raising-real-estate-standards/id1574549987Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1ZKLmFIFvx1UjSwL4jOTVzSocial Media and Contact InformationWebsite: https://www.raisingrealestatestandards.comLink Tree:  https://linktr.ee/raisingrealestatestandards

Every real estate agent is asking the same question right now:How do I make more money?In this episode of The MindShare Podcast, David Greenspan breaks down a simple but powerful shift in thinking that most agents overlook — and how it directly impacts their income.If you treat money properly, you don't leave it sitting around.You deposit it.You invest it.You expect it to grow.So why are agents treating their contacts any differently?This episode dives into how your CRM should be viewed as a bank account — and why the way you manage your relationships, follow-up, and database directly determines how much business you do.From daily conversations to long-term follow-up systems, David shares how to turn the people you already know into consistent business — without chasing new leads or relying on the market to change.If your business feels inconsistent, slow, or unpredictable, this episode will help you rethink your approach and start building a more reliable pipeline.What You'll LearnWhy most agents struggle to make consistent money in real estateHow to think about your CRM like a financial investmentThe connection between contacts, follow-up, and incomeWhy timing in real estate is longer than most agents expectHow to build long-term business through consistent communicationThe role of daily non-negotiables in pipeline growthWhy your current database may already contain your next dealsHow to stop chasing business and start building itTimestamps[00:00] Introduction — the idea that changed everything[03:00] Money vs contacts — the comparison[06:00] Why your CRM is your bank accountThe Problem Most Agents Have[09:00] How many people are you actually adding to your CRM?[12:00] Why contacts are being wasted[15:00] The gap between having a database and using itShort-Term vs Long-Term Business[18:00] Why not every contact is immediate[21:00] The mistake of chasing only “now” deals[24:00] How long-term follow-up creates future incomeDoing the Work[27:00] What actually happens after someone enters your CRM[30:00] The importance of consistent communication[33:00] Building real relationships over timeNon-Negotiables[36:00] Why consistency beats motivation[39:00] Daily actions that drive business[42:00] Treating your business like an investmentMarket Cycles & Patience[45:00] Understanding ups and downs[48:00] Why consistency wins long-termClosing Thoughts[51:00] Every contact is a decision[54:00] Stop leaving money on the table[57:00] Final takeawayKey TakeawayThe business you're looking for isn't out there somewhere.It's already around you.The difference between agents who struggle and agents who grow consistently comes down to one thing:What they do with the people they already know.SponsorsThis episode is brought to you by:KiTS Keep-in-Touch SystemsYour ultimate marketing and lead generation CRM for real estate professionals.REM Real Estate MagazineCanada's premier source for real estate news, insights, and industry expertise.Resources & Links
