On this episode of The Neighborhood Realtor, Matt Muscat talks with Josh May, an outstanding Realtor, speaker, and networker in Grand Rapids, MI. Josh May has been a licensed real estate agent for 22 years. He started as a college student trying to get by as a football player at Grand Valley State University. He fell in love with business instantly and began selling commercial real estate. Although, Josh realized quickly a massive opportunity as a college-aged Realtor: all of his friends, classmates, and professional network would all be buying homes in the next 5-10 years. He dove straight into residential real estate and never turned back. That decision proved to be instrumental in his career.  When the housing market crashed in 2008, Josh had a few years under his belt learning the ropes of the industry. Being a newer agent in 2008 gave him a big advantage in the market to stay nimble, and shift quickly with buyers as conversations & sales changed— seemingly overnight. Josh makes many comparisons between the 2008 housing crash and today's market—while they are still very different markets, some of the fundamental themes remain the same. Some of the same strategies that haven't worked since 2008 are working once again.  In a changing market, leadership wins. Buyers gravitate toward the Realtors who are positive, excited, and bold. In 2022 & 2023, that couldn't be more important. Josh speaks intensely to the style of communication needed with clients, and the importance of leadership in marketing. Leaders talk, leaders are transparent, and leaders motivate! In the housing market, Realtors must be a strong leader to survive (and thrive) in a shifting market. Practical conversions and honest education will what wins buyers and sellers over. It's a Realtor strategy that wins! A theme that Josh refers to multiple times throughout this episode is the importance if discipline and sticking to your plans. Write your goals down on paper, and tell friends and family about them. Break down those goals into bite-sized chunks or do anything you need to do. Just don't get behind them, don't ignore them, and stay true to those goals. Do everything in your power to achieve those goals, since they are non-negotiable. Josh credits this discipline-first Realtor strategy to much of his career's progress. The Neighborhood Realtor is proudly sponsored by Treadstone Funding and Neighborhood Loans.

On this episode of The Neighborhood Realtor, Matt Muscat sits down, face-to-face, with Mark Brace, a well-known and legendary real estate agent in Grand Rapids, MI.Mark built his business from nothing—literally. He had no special connections, no support, and no referrals. He learned how to hustle, and he learned quickly, since 2006 marked the beginning of his career in real estate. Mark built an admirable business despite the market conditions of the recession. It was the mindset that got Mark through; half of all realtors left the business during the recession because of fear, but Mark saw it as an opportunity. Today, Mark's business closes $125m in deals each year with a team of seven agents.Of all the skills that Mark has improved and mastered over the years, mindset is the number one skill he attributes to his success. Your mindset, not your skill or luck, can be contagious, and benefit (or attract!) clients. When interest rates are high, you become the Realtor who's happy they're not any higher. When home values are down 15%, you're grateful they're not down 25%. When everyone says it's a bad time to buy, you see the opportunity and help your clients win—and win big. You're not just offering a product or service, but instead, you're giving your clients hope & a good mood. Mark is a believer in the law of attraction—genuine salesmen attract genuine clients, and sour marketing will attract sour clients. Trust your gut and trust your intuition to make the best decisions to build the best business possible, and always rely on your coach (get one, if you don't already) for leadership advice & long-term strategy. Mark has moved his personal business further into the luxury market over the past several years and continues to expand his business, team, and abilities. He may be considered successful now, but there's a long road ahead! Built all on a foundation inspired by a recession.

On this episode of The Neighborhood Realtor, Matt Muscat talks with Chris Cusimano, a top-performing Realtor in Boca Raton, Florida. Chris began in real estate in 2005 and emerged from the 2008 financial crisis a wildly successful Realtor and business owner. His business has been built by clever innovations and creative pivoting when markets change. Even after nearly two decades in real estate and a track record of successes, Chris finds himself driven by giving back & providing for his family.Chris closes ~100 deals a year, but doesn't keep track of his production. It's not an important metric to him — rather, he loves the process, the grind, and helping people achieve incredible goals. Neither money signs nor production goals motivate him. In this episode, Chris describes one of his most powerful secrets: the “Dream 300” client database. Since he started in real estate, he's kept a list of 300 of his best clients, colleagues, and contacts 20 of them each day with a meaningful message: text, call, Facebook comment, anything. No spam. Not sales pitches. It keeps him in touch with his closest clients, all while building meaningful friendships and relationships — a recurring theme on The Neighborhood Realtor. Focusing on direct communications with his clients, Chris has kept his business out of the social media algorithm, which is a powerful tool & advantage in today's digital world. It's old school. Chris hates boring marketing. It's not effective, and everyone hates it, so why do it? Instead, Chris lives to give back, so he'll load a Starbucks gift card and text it to a dozen people at once. He'll buy a $500 gift card at a restaurant and pick up the tab for everyone there. He'll send funny Father's Day t-shirts to his Dream 300 database. It's cheaper than Zillow ads, and it produces incredible amounts of business. People love it. Giving goods is only one of the thing Chris gives — he also gives information! During the pandemic, Chris began a Facebook group for coaching real estate professionals, for free. It's called Suit Up Agent, and every week he hosts a live stream to give away his best secrets. He gives away scripts, data sources, processes, marketing ideas, and more. It's attracted an amazing following, created well-deserved national awareness for Chris' business. Chris is a wealth of information, and a joy to listen to. There's no shortage of useful information in this episode of The Neighborhood Realtor.

On this episode of Marketing in Other Markets, Matt Muscat talks to Stefanie Lugo, a Real Estate Agent in Phoenix, AZ.Stefanie works with her husband Bryce, as a husband/wife powerhouse duo, and have built their real estate business to $18 million in 9 years in business.One main thing powers their business: Empathy.The modern Realtor has become comfortably snug in the perks of their business living in the cloud; email, Zoom calls, and e-signed documents unintentionally distance Realtors from their clients. Stefanie finds that empathy and relationships have allowed her to build their business, paired with her passions, friendships, and more.Empathy can take on a variety of forms, but for Stefanie, it's friendships.Showing up and being present is the best thing you can do as a real estate agent! Knock on doors, dine with clients and partners, and make friends. You will build a business (and relationships) you are proud to have. Closing should be the start of your relationship with a client.Stefanie employs a range of other techniques and ideas that play into her strategy of operating with extreme empathy to win over clients. Social media, bonuses for high-end clients, and more! In the end, invest in your current and past clients—not new clients. Inverting the sales funnel is one of the most important things a realtor can do to build a sustainable business. There is immense value in narrowing your search for new clients (or stopping it altogether).Through this, Stefanie's business is one she is immensely proud of.Stefanie continues the relationship and friendship-building online, just as much as she does in-person. On Facebook and Instagram, she's constantly engaged in conversions on her friends' & followers' posts, while she purposely creates less content to post to her feeds. From her perspective, the relationships for realtors are better suited for comments and direct messages than news feeds.

In this episode of Marketing in Other Markets, Matt Muscat talks to Barry Karch, a veteran real estate professional and top-performing agent.Barry has a whopping 37 years in the real estate industry and has built his business into a small empire in El Paso, Texas. In 2021, Barry managed over 400 transactions between 25 Realtors, with an average deal size of $275,000! He's the real deal.Barry's secret weapon? He's an introvert. Seriously. He turned being an introvert into a tool to build his business—being an introverted Realtor is his greatest asset as a manager and salesman.Realtors far and wide are known to be pushy, aggressive, and overly excited to get your business. It's the defining characteristic of salespeople across the board—Car Salesmen, Real Estate Agents, Loan Officers, and Sales Reps are all hungry to close the deal. After nearly four decades of business, Barry has figured out that doing the exact opposite as the traditional salesman is the key to success. As a salesperson and/or Realtor, building trust and putting your clients at ease should be the top priority.As a Real Estate Agent on a sales call, you should be listening—not selling. An introverted Realtor spends at least half their time listening to the client and letting them speak their mind. When a client gets on the phone with a soft-spoken, introverted Real Estate Agent, they immediately realize they are talking to a normal, friendly, regular person. Not a hungry salesman. The introverted Realtor isn't pushing anything onto the client that they don't need or want, but instead is strategizing a way to help meet their goals. It's a trust-building sales tactic to play the long-term game.Realtors often receive cold leads online, whether it's through organic discovery or paid lead generation. Those leads, who are real people, don't need an instant race to the closing table, but rather prefer someone to help them through the process. When receiving those leads, Barry's advice is not to rush, push, or overly excite the process. Don't brag about your business or credentials. Introverts win at winning over cold leads every time.Networking can be tough as an introvert, but it is vital to building a real estate business (or any business)! When you're out in the world meeting people for the first time, one of the best tactics to gain business is to talk to other people about themselves. You heard right—don't talk about you, but rather talk about them. But stay in contact with them. Friend them on Facebook, follow them on Instagram. People latch onto the people who are interested in them. Shut up and listen!One of the other strengths of an introverted Realtor is the focus on taking care of current clients, instead of trying to source new leads. Barry no longer advertises for new clients, nor has he advertised in years. It's not profitable to spend money on people who have no clue who you are. Instead, reward the folks who do.Barry's top trick is giving away Girl Scout Cookies each year to his clients. For $5 a client, he wins over past clients year after year, and it makes the Girl Scouts ecstatic, too. Barry's referral business increased exponentially the year he started giving away cookies door-to-door.Long story short, being an introverted Realtor is a superpower.If you're a Realtor: shut up and listen. Take care of your clients. Build meaningful relationships. Reap the rewards of a fulfilling career.

On this episode of Marketing in Other Markets, Matt Muscat talks to Jess Lenovuel, also commonly known as “the Canadian who moved to the Bahamas”. Jess has experienced every part of the real estate rollercoaster, experiencing the highest of highs, and the lowest of lows. Each twist and turn of her journey produced valuable lessons, which she's been able to articulate into incredible advice for anyone who listens! Whether or not you're a Realtor, Jess is a wealth of information for advancing your career, especially in avoiding Realtor burnout. With Jess' experience, there are three main reasons why people choose the real estate agent career path: ceiling-free income, freedom in daily schedules, and the opportunity to simply help people. Unfortunately, almost nobody successfully reaches a perfect balance of those three.The only way to achieve those three goals, is to build systems, processes, and structures to take care of all aspects of your business—otherwise you'll drown in it. That includes building a team and anticipating anything that could pop up, good or bad. No real estate agent is motivated 100% of the time. Nobody is. When your real estate business becomes reliant on your motivation, it is destined to fail; burnout is the kiss of death! Build your business on a platform separate from your motivation and excitement! At the end of the day, your clients will work with the experts they enjoy working with. If you don't enjoy your business, your clients will notice. Those systems can't exist without one thing: a vision. If you don't know where you're going, how are you supposed to get there? You'll work endlessly in no direction, unless you have a single, guiding direction. That vision could be anything you want it to be; after all, it is your vision. No matter the team size or number of automations, a vision is the only way to build anything meaningful or fulfilling (and to avoid burnout!). Jess' advice? Plan out a 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year vision. Make every decision based on whether you're getting closer or further away from your goals. If you do that, you'll be able to avoid the “shiny object syndrome”, and your progress will be unstoppable. She also follows Tim Ferriss' advice: Eliminate, Automate, and Outsource. Eliminate time wasters, distractions, and un-important tasks. Automate anything that can be automated (especially repetitive tasks). Outsource everything else! However, marketing is an extremely difficult task to automate, and probably shouldn't be automated by new agents (and likely don't have the capital to outsource). Marketing is one of the toughest, but most important aspects for new agents to master. Understand marketing before mastering any other part of your business. Facebook, Instagram, and Tik Tok— they all get the job done, but they all take huge amounts of work (and that's okay). Jess asked many brilliant questions in this episode: How can you share your excellent thoughts with 100,000 people instead of 1? How much are you worth an hour, and are your tasks worth your time? How can you increase your bandwidth with high-leverage activities?At the end of our lives, no person wishes they had worked more. Few real estate agents build a life without regrets. Don't be one of them!

Today, we're talking about how to market your loan officers and real estate agents. The first thing that you need is a great team of people who are willing to work with prospects on their loans! But what if I told you there was an easier way? You see most brokers spend hours going through listings only they can barely find anything good because all these houses are so similar (you know). Matt shares tips on how to reach people on social media by engaging with their posts. You can do this through Facebook or Instagram and send them messages about what you're up to, but it's not necessary that they know how much of an impact YOU could have if only give advice from experience!

After changing his college major from journalism to communications, Matt took a digital marketing course and never looked back. Author of TAG Tangible Action Guide: For Real Estate Marketing, Matt believes people are more likely to remember you when they have multiple contexts. How can realtors differentiate themselves from the pack? Social media is a great place to highlight various personals the realtor can develop to connect with customers. Every realtor should have three different reasons for people to remember them. People can relate to many different aspects that are easily visible on social media platforms. These contacts will eventually be added to the realtor's database. Future marketing to these contacts should focus on various topics that are relevant to their interests. A realtor's personal page is going to help them much more than their business page, because it will showcase information about them. And keep the focus on “social” since realtors should market themselves first, and then market houses. Customers want to have things in common with those they want to do business with. What is the realtor's main goal? To get a conversation going! Develop a social media plan that highlights the personas, be generous with tagging others, and vary the content. Social media platforms are more likely to bring your content forward when it notes the connections, visits, and views. Matt shares some great tips on how to develop useful videos that address questions received, developing an annual marketing plan, and how to get contacts into a database for future marketing efforts.
