In this episode, Anderson Business Advisors host Clint Coons, Esq., sits down with Brian Hanson, co-founder of Real Advisors and AI for Business, to explore how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing real estate investing. Brian, who has been teaching business owners and investors about AI and marketing for several years, shares how investors can use AI to crunch massive amounts of data in seconds to identify the most predictable houses likely to sell — something that used to cost $20,000+ from data scientists. They discuss using humanized chatbots and voice bots that can have thousands of personalized conversations simultaneously without sounding robotic, automating follow-up sequences that never miss opportunities, and building custom apps in under five minutes without any coding knowledge. Brian reveals specific tools like Rest Bag for analyzing repair costs at 10 cents per photo, Yellow Pages Scraper for building 20,000-person cash buyer lists for just $80, and browser-use.com for creating custom APIs by simply showing the system what you do manually. As Brian explains, "I just don't think that most people really realize what's possible out there." The conversation covers everything from data mining and lead generation to creating high-converting marketing campaigns using competitive intelligence, virtual staging, and automation tools like Lovable, Google's AI Studio, Air DNA, House Canary, and Semrush. Tune in to discover how AI is the ultimate force multiplier for real estate investors looking to scale their businesses efficiently! Brian Hanson is the co-founder of Real Advisors and AI for Business. He got his start in real estate in his early 20s working with renowned real estate educator Ron LeGrand, where he developed a passion for marketing. Over the years, Brian has become obsessed with finding smarter, faster ways to grow businesses, and when AI emerged, he immediately recognized its transformative potential. Brian now teaches business owners and investors how to leverage AI to dramatically scale their operations, reduce costs, and increase output. He hosts the AI for Business podcast and regularly conducts three-day intensive training events where he shares cutting-edge AI strategies and tools. Brian's approach focuses on practical implementation—helping entrepreneurs automate processes, eliminate roadblocks, and achieve results they never thought possible.

She sold 28 homes her first year, 86 the next, and 145 after that — all while becoming a first-time mom in a chaotic market.But behind the success was exhaustion, fear, and a quiet question many agents are afraid to ask: What does this level of hustle actually cost?In this episode of The Faithful Agent Podcast, Garrett Maroon interviews Taley Hunt, a high-producing real estate agent, team leader, and mom who built an extraordinary business during one of the most intense markets in history — while navigating pregnancy, postpartum life, and early motherhood.Taley shares how she entered real estate with no prior industry experience, found out she was pregnant the day she passed her real estate exam, and went on to sell nearly 300 homes in three years. She opens up about the hidden cost of rapid success, including burnout, anxiety, and tying her self-worth to production.Garrett and Taley also dive into how she transitioned from blind hustle to intentional business ownership, why community and human connection matter more than ever in an AI-driven world, and how she now helps moms in real estate build big businesses without sacrificing their families or faith.Connect with Taley:- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realestatemomcoach/- Website: https://taleyhunt.com/Key TakeawaysRapid success without boundaries can quietly lead to burnoutHustle alone is not a long-term business strategyMany agents tie self-worth to production without realizing itOrganic growth through relationships and community is powerful and sustainableSocial media and agent referrals can outperform paid leads when done intentionallyHuman connection will matter more — not less — in an AI-driven industryBuilding leverage is essential to protecting family timeDefining success personally is more important than industry benchmarksMoms in real estate need community, not comparisonYou can build a big business without trading your life for itChapters01:21 – Entering Real Estate During the Pandemic03:49 – First Deals, New Motherhood, and No Time Off 05:12 – Fear of Losing Momentum09:05 – Selling 28 Homes with No Childcare 11:03 – Scaling from 28 to 145 Transactions 12:25 – Learning to Leverage Time and Build Support 13:53 – How Social Media & Agent Referrals Built Her Business 16:11 – Teaching Agents to Build Through Community 19:11 – Why Human Connection Beats AI 22:15 – Helping Agents Find Their Niche and People 24:38 – When Production Became Identity 26:37 – Redefining Success and Setting Boundaries

More money. More time. Or both.If what you offer helps people get one or both, demand should not be the problem. When it is, the issue is rarely the product. It is how the value is communicated. The problem is most businesses bury that value under features, specs, and what I call “knowledge vomit” and then wonder why buyers do not move.In this episode, I break down why marketing fails when it cannot clearly validate outcomes. Buyers do not struggle with features or specs. They struggle with confusion. If your message does not quickly show how you help them make money, save time, or both, they will move on, even if what you offer is genuinely strong.We walk through how value gets buried under “impressive” language, why clear always beats clever, and how small disconnects in messaging and experience quietly erode trust and revenue. This is not about hype or shortcuts. It is about making the value obvious at every touchpoint.In this episode, you will learn how to:Translate features into outcomes buyers actually care aboutClarify whether your offer makes money, saves time, or does bothSimplify messaging so decision makers instantly understand the valueFix marketing that looks polished but fails to convertImprove customer experience through small, intentional momentsAlign product, marketing, and leadership around one clear value storyThis episode is for founders, marketers, product leaders, and decision makers who are tired of guessing why marketing is not working. If your marketing cannot clearly prove value, you will not win. When it can, growth becomes more predictable, more sustainable, and far less complicated.Beyond The Episode Gems:Subscribe To My New Weekly LinkedIn Newsletter: Strategize. Market.

If your lead gen, PPC, or organic search is feeling sluggish, it's because marketing has changed. AI is here to level the playing field, and if you're not adapting, you're becoming a dinosaur!Corey's not just talking theory; he's helped thousands of entrepreneurs revolutionize their marketing to dominate Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and voice search.

This subtle shift is costing businesses up to 90% of their organic traffic!Amplify Your AI Credibility: Learn exactly where AI pulls its trusted information. Get an about.me page, optimize LinkedIn, and actively seek reviews/mentions across every platform (Yelp, Facebook, Trustpilot, even IMDB!). More diverse mentions (even without backlinks!) build authority with AI.Content Velocity is Your Superpower: Stop creating content sporadically! AI thrives on consistent, varied information.

Growing a pool service business comes down to clear choices and honest math: buy a route, build organically, or blend both. Each path has tradeoffs in cash, time, and risk. Buying through a trusted broker can deliver instant revenue and a safety net, but it requires real capital and commitment. Building through ads and local outreach can be cheaper per account, but it demands relentless effort and tight tracking. The right choice depends on your market's competition, your cash access, and how quickly you need dependable monthly revenue.Route purchases can be a smart investment when you treat them like an asset, not a gamble. Most brokered routes trade near 12 times monthly billing, which implies a one-year payback if retention holds. You're not waiting a year to see money—cash flow starts day one—but mentally assigning that revenue to repay the purchase keeps you disciplined. Brokers add value with short safety periods and seller training, which matters when some sellers vanish after closing. If you finance with a home equity line of credit, understand you're “all in.” Buying a partial route can de-risk your entry, letting you learn which pools to keep, which to swap, and how to manage density without overextending.We share a practical roadmap to grow a pool service business with real numbers, clear tradeoffs, and field-tested plays. From buying a partial route to building a referral engine and partnering with builders, we map the paths that scale without wasting cash.• when buying a route makes sense and why broker safety nets matter• financing realities, payback math, and retention risks• organic growth via Google Ads, Yelp, HomeAdvisor, and Thumbtack• door hangers and targeted mailers that lower cost per account• market differences that favor partial route purchases• referral rewards that convert and sustain growth• builder partnerships and NPC startup methods for easy wins• simple metrics for route density, churn, and marginsJoin the pool guy coaching program.

Send us a textReady to turn casual clicks into confident buyers? We sat down with Idea Room's Dan VanOrden to map the full journey from a mobile-first 3D design to a signed contract and a clean handoff for fulfillment. Our goal: remove friction for the customer, give reps everything they need in one place, and move from replies to results.We start with what dealers actually feel: Boost on a phone is fast, smooth, and intuitive enough for first-time buyers to design a serious building without hand-holding. That design data becomes gold when a webhook drops the build link and customer details straight into your CRM. No retyping, no juggling tabs—just a clear, prioritized tile that tells your team who's engaged, what they configured, and how to call back with context. We talk lead scoring, multiple-submission signals, and the simple heuristics that identify the most valuable calls to make today.Then we dig into the partnership that unlocks post-frame and red iron: Idea Room for the front-end experience, SmartBuild for accurate bill of materials and fulfillment. The combo lets you advertise templates, capture complete designs, and push them into SmartBuild in minutes. If you've wrestled with slow e-modeler workflows, this is the speed upgrade that saves hours every week. We round things out with new features—embedded payments, digital signatures—and a candid look at scale and support across hundreds of live configurators. Dan pulls back the curtain on where AI already helps: cleaning product data, boosting engineering output, and giving sales faster paths to a polished quote. If you sell carports, sheds, or post-frame buildings, this conversation shows how a connected stack can lift conversions and shorten time-to-cash.Subscribe for more deep dives, share this with a teammate who lives in the CRM, and leave a review with your biggest bottleneck.For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Would you like to receive our weekly newsletter?

In this engaging episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, co-hosted by LA Williams and Tianna Mick, the focus is on the transformative power of video in car sales. Despite LA being unable to see, he passionately advocates for the use of video as a cornerstone strategy in driving sales, highlighting its power to enhance engagement and build trust with customers. Tianna, known for her expertise in personal branding, joins LA in sharing practical insights on incorporating video into daily sales processes to maximize leads, appointments, and sales conversions! "You want people to almost have a deja vu experience when they visit your dealership." - LA Williams The episode dives deep into the fundamental aspects of creating effective sales videos, including the importance of proper setup, consistent backgrounds, and expertly crafted scripts. LA and Tianna stress that video content should be concise, personalized, and built around a clear value proposition to engage prospects effectively. "Making sure you say the customer's name is super important... everybody's favorite word is their name." - Tianna Mick As the conversation unfolds, they provide a robust framework involving key elements like effective lighting, the relevance of a clean camera lens, and the power of personal connection through direct calls to action, all while implementing new technology such as AI in content creation. For the seasoned sales professional and the novice alike, the insights shared in this episode are invaluable for mastering the art of video marketing in the automotive industry! Key Takeaways: ✅ Using video in car sales increases engagement and builds trust faster than text or audio alone. ✅ Maintain consistency and brand recognition in video backgrounds to enhance authenticity and viewer comfort. ✅ Essential elements of a perfect lead video: customer's name, vehicle of interest, value proposition, and call to action. ✅ Embrace AI technology to enhance video content creation efficiently and effectively. ✅ Practice and iteration lead to improvement; start shooting videos to develop skills and reduce hesitation over time. About Tianna 'T Got Your Keys' Mick Tianna Mick, famously known as "T Got Your Keys," is a prominent figure in the automotive sales space! Celebrated as the "Queen of Branding", with an impressive record of selling +20 cars per month while consistently being the #1 Grossing Salesperson at her store and generating her own leads/business through her TGotYourKeys.com Website. Tianna has established herself as a top performer and innovator in car sales strategies, with a special focus on personal branding and digital marketing. Revolutionize Your Dealership with Video Marketing: Insights from the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast Key Takeaways Harness the Power of Video: Video marketing is not just a trend but a necessity in modern car sales, enabling dealerships to create personal connections and reduce the fear of the unknown for customers. Optimize the Basics: Setting up a compelling video involves proper lighting, clear audio, and a consistent, clean background to enhance trust and engagement. Script and Deliver Effectively: Essential elements of a successful video include addressing customers by name, highlighting the vehicle of interest, and concluding with a strong call-to-action. Leverage Video to Establish Trust and Familiarity In the dynamic world of car sales, the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast delves into the transformative potential of video marketing. LA Williams, alongside Tianna Mick, emphasizes the powerful emotional connection videos can establish, setting a dealership apart in a sea of sameness. "You want people to almost have a deja vu experience when they visit your dealership," LA Williams suggests, underscoring how videos can eliminate the fear of the unknown—a significant barrier for potential buyers. The discussion sheds light on how video marketing can simulate a personal interaction, thus building trust faster than written text or static images. With the capability to convey sight, sound, motion, and emotion, videos can significantly enhance customer engagement, making them feel more comfortable and familiar even before stepping into the dealership. Incorporating video tours of your dealership, for example, ensures customers find the environment welcoming and recognizable. Tianna Mick points out, "walk into, like, a courthouse… you're going to be like, where do I go? I'm nervous." This analogy emphasizes how video tours can transform the customer's first visit into a seamless, almost familiar journey. The Essential Setup for Effective Video Marketing Crafting a compelling video requires a foundational setup that pairs well with the content. As expressed in the podcast, without the right tools, even the most well-intentioned videos may fall flat. LA Williams, despite being visually impaired, stresses the importance of proper lighting and camera clarity, demonstrating that the basics of video production are vital regardless of one's abilities. "Top two things for any video… audio, you gotta have good audio, and… good lighting." The podcast highlights that a clean camera lens and a consistent background are understated elements that significantly impact the quality of video marketing. Tiana Mick advises, "making sure you wipe the front and every single one of the lenses in the back," a small yet critical step that improves visual clarity and viewer engagement. Coupled with a customized, dealership-branded backdrop, these elements ensure that each video serves as a professional representation of the brand, significantly enhancing credibility. Moreover, the consistency in video backgrounds, as noted by Tianna, can reinforce brand recognition, much like how viewers associate a television character with their set environment. This aspect ensures that your audience's focus remains on the message rather than potential distractions, amplifying the overall impact. Crafting and Delivering Your Message Creating a successful video is more than just presentation—it's about crafting a powerful message that resonates. Essential to the video strategy discussed in the podcast is the script, especially emphasizing personalization and value-addition. Incorporating the customer's name into the conversation is not merely courteous but strategic. "Everybody's favorite word… is our names," Tianna Mick asserts, highlighting its efficacy in personalizing communication and fostering genuine connections. The video should also clarify the customer's vehicle of interest while subtly integrating the dealership's value proposition. "Providing value and showing why they need to be purchasing with you," says Mick, ensures the video is informative and persuasive. These aspects are crucial in aligning the dealership's offerings with customer needs, driving engagement and conversion. A compelling call-to-action (CTA) concludes each video, guiding prospects toward the next step, whether scheduling a call or visiting the dealership. As LA Williams articulates, a CTA effectively escalates the interaction, encouraging a seamless transition from virtual engagement to in-person attendance. In essence, adopting video marketing as outlined by the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast participants revolutionizes customer interactions, establishing a bridge between the virtual and physical realms of car sales. Employing these strategies fosters enhanced connections, drives customer comfort, and ultimately, amplifies sales success. These insights are indispensable for dealers striving to stand out and thrive in today's competitive environment. By prioritizing video content, dealerships can not only augment their marketing strategies but also cultivate a genuinely engaging customer experience.
