I wanted to recognize Brandon because he is not the average person. Brandon knows the reality of hardship and sacrifice. His goal is to help other families find a home that they will enjoy for the rest of their lives.     Living in poverty has caused challenges for many people over the course of history, and those that are able to escape it and improve the quality of their lives did it successfully by doing one simple thing………working their asses off.    Brandon Brittingham has known poverty and he used the lessons it taught including grit, tenacity, and a dogged work ethic to propel him to where he is today.  Brandon is a serial entrepreneur, Co-Founder/Owner/CEO at the Maryland and Delaware Group of Long & Foster. He is the head coach for Elite Opts Real Estate Coaching and a savvy Real Estate Investor. He currently heads up the #1 Real Estate Team in Maryland and the #5 team in the United States in homes sold. To say he's an overachiever is an understatement. He's a f#cking gorilla.   In this episode, Pedro and Brandon talk about what it takes to make it in any business you're in starting with your mindset. They share a disdain for the “Trophy Club” winners, creating opportunities for yourself, the power of making money, and what it represents.  Brandon takes a deep dive into part of his journey that led him to realize one of the most important things about this world when it comes to “freedom.” Pedro and Brandon discuss how to recruit for your team, and what it means to co-exist in a world full of Karens by simply being a gorilla.   What You'll Learn:   What poverty looked like for Brandon growing up. How Brandon survived the economic meltdown of 2008 and what he did to overcome it. Why Brandon became successful despite barely graduating high school and having had no formal education Battling autoimmune disease.  The revelation in his life was when he learned his business partner committed suicide.  One thing that pisses Brandon off about the Real Estate industry and the people in it is The attitude Brandon takes when it comes to approaching life, relationships, and business Why fighting was necessary for Brandon to build his Real Estate empire  A real-time example of the type of person that doesn't belong on your team How it's not enough to simply “manifest” what you want in the world  Brandon's revelation about the so-called “Illuminati”  Creating residual income is not built without doing a certain level of work  The work required to remove yourself from the grind if you're going to be successful  Stark contrasts between pro athletes, coaches and why everyone should have a coach whether they're playing sports or not The Principle of the Greater Good  Skills Brandon earned and learned that contributed to his overall success And much more!     FAVORITE QUOTES: “In a world full of Karens, be a Gorilla.”   “I don't give a shit who you are or where you came from, what kinda money you got blah, blah, blah, blah. If you want to build something great, that's sustainable that's going to create generational wealth, and inspire people, you have to be f*****g insanely disciplined.” Brandon Brittingham Connect with Brandon: LinkedIn Instagram   How To Get Involved: From rock bottom and $500 to his name, Pedro Meneses moved to the US, leaving everything behind seeking answers to turning his life around, becoming an entrepreneur, and thriving in business.

We also discussed: How luxury consumers are different from other consumers What sets top agents apart How increasing confidence increase conversions   Luxury clients are used to a high level of service and support. If we want to appeal to them, we need to have a high level of confidence backed up by actual competence and knowledge. We have to create systems that allow us to duplicate our performance without reinventing the wheel. This results in more business, more referrals, and more confidence to know we can do a high level of business. That’s ultimately what separates top level agents from the rest.   Guest Bio Dean is president of T3 Sixty’s Brokerage Consulting Division.
