Are you consulting or selling? - Ep 196   On this episode of the Real Estate Fight Club, Jenn, and Monica are addressing the topic of, “Are you consulting or selling?” Talking about this will significantly affect how you present yourself to your clients! Tune in and find out!   Episode Highlights:  Monica says that this is where the rubber meets the road, this topic is the most significant contributor of top real estate agents. Tom shares his beginning in Real Estate, where he would say he's the top Realtor in the market. This is what most agents do. It was only when he went on another appointment with a seller, that he had to fight his way in.  The more he talked about having people see the house, the client started to become uncomfortable. Jenn says that the price isn't always the seller's motivation. Tom agrees that most agents think that way and when the seller said that she would only work with him if he could sell the house without letting in a lot of people. Tom started looking for an investor. This made the sale happen the way the seller wanted. Monica says “Before walking into a house, clear your mind and eliminate the agenda” Tom realizes that he wasn't consulting, he was selling the one product that he had, and no matter what the client said, he was still pushing the product to the client. Now, Tom only asks clients questions whenever he goes into a house. And once he diagnoses the problem, he then gives the client what he deems the best solution. Tom gives the best questions you can ask clients. Jennifer says that we always have to know more, and to make the best options as to the clients situations. Monica says that questions are the most powerful tools in your tool kit! 3 Key Points: Before walking into a house, clear your mind and eliminate the agenda. Find out what the problem is and how you can help the client reach their goal. Tom realizes that he wasn't consulting, he was selling the one product that he had, and no matter what the client said, he was still pushing the product to the client. Ask questions 80% of the time you're in a new house, then analyze the problems and the client's goals, only then do you give the best solution. Tweetable Quotes: “I used to say that I was the top realtor out there… that's what most agents do.” - Tom Cafarella “The price isn't always the Seller's motivation.” - Jennifer Murtland “Before you walk into a house, clear your mind.” - Monica Weakley “I wasn't consulting, I was selling the one product that I had, and no matter what the client said, I was still selling the product.” - Tom Cafarella “Questions are the most powerful tools in your tool kit.” - Monica Weakley Resources Mentioned:  Jenn Murtland LinkedIn | Facebook | (513) 400-1691 | Website | Instagram https://jennifermurtland.com/Vault/ Monica Weakley website | LinkedIn | Facebook Real Estate Fight Club Podcast  Facebook page | Instagram | YouTube Tom Cafarella FB group called agent investor https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/agent-investor-podcast/id1245797759   Thank You To Our Incredible Sponsor Partners (Get Great Discounts with these links) Ghostpostr - https://www.ghostpostr.com/ (Get It For FREE!)   Pipeline Pro Tools - https://pipelineprotools.com/fightclub/   RedX - https://www.theredx.com/fight-club/ Achosa - https://www.achosahw.com/  (Use the Code FightClub)

He is the author of the book, Deep Listening and now, his newest book, How to Listen: Discover the Hidden Key to Better Communication*. In this conversation, Oscar and I explore several of the assumptions that tend to get in our way of listening well. Oscar highlights several distinctions that will be useful mindsets for you in showing up better in future conversations. Plus, we discuss how listing goes far beyond simply asking questions. Key Points Before we begin listening, it is helpful to tune…much like as orchestra. We can't always give our full attention, but we can make the choice as to whether we are paying attention or giving attention. As much as we intend otherwise, sometimes we listen less well in our closest relationships. Aim to be curious instead of drawing conclusions. Asking questions does not necessarily mean you are listening well. Aimless and arbitrary questions are everywhere.

Consider business classes or an apprenticeship as an alternative to receiving a designation.  The general public likely does not care about the alphabet soup after your name.Resources Mentioned:Jenn Murtland LinkedIn | FacebookMonica Weakley LinkedIn | FacebookToe 2 Toe Podcast Facebook PageWhy Realtors Need a Legit Apprentice Program (article)

Bio Aaron Fifield is the host of Chat with Traders a podcast focusing on weekly interviews with profitable traders. He also runs his own graphics and web design company. 3 Key Points: Before monetizing a product or service, often times it’s beneficial to grow your list and become better known. Qualities that attract listeners to a podcast are the inclusion of well-known guests, consistency, and being active on social media platforms. If you want to be something, spend your time around people who already are. To be an engineer, spend time with engineers. Time Stamped Show Notes: 01:00 – Nathan’s introduction to today’s show 01:22 – Aaron joins the show. 02:05 – Aaron made his first thousand dollars when he started his graphics and web design company. 03:32 – Chat with Traders began with Aaron’s desire to spend more time with traders. 05:30 – Movies make trading look more glamorous than it really is. 06:35 – Aaron’s main revenue stream comes from his podcast Chat with Traders which hasn’t been monetized - only publicized. 07:20 – Chat with Traders started about a year ago and releases once a week. They reached about 90K downloads in a recent month and have about 627K cumulative downloads. 07:57 – Featuring prolific or famous guests attract listeners to the podcast, but convincing them to come on air requires perseverance. 08:26 – Being active on a couple social media platforms and being consistent with publishing schedule are also important to getting listeners. 10:08 – Aaron gives an example pitch to direct listeners to his podcast. 10:33 – Chat with Traders has 5,800 subscribers, Aaron’s focus is growing the list through 2016. 10:58 – Aaron makes some revenue from graphics and web design. He makes a couple hundred bucks from his podcast per month. 13:31 – Famous Five Famous 5 Favorite Book?- Rich Dad Poor Dad and The 48 Laws of Power What CEO do you follow?— com What is your favorite online tool?— Trello and Slack Do you get 8 hours of sleep?— No, but he keeps in mind that ‘the morning starts the night before.’ If you could let your 20 year old self know one thing, what would it be?— Start trading early. Don’t start a purely service based business. Get into the habit of outsourcing more. Resources Mentioned: Edgar – Nathan uses Edgar instead of other scheduling tools for Twitter because Edgar cycles through content over and over (buffer/others you have to re-input content over and over – time consuming).
