Podcasts about onion juice

 I went through many hair-loss programs and I want to present something that works and is affordable.Besides of severe diseases the reasons of losing the hair are:1. The calcifications of the blood vessels that are supporting the hair roots with nutrition…2. The lack of nutrition necessary for growing the hair…3. Stress.4. The lousy Attitude of the people (to be a sheep) who are losing hairs… People who don't have the freedom to think freely, regardless what the society proclaim is correct, and that are 90% of the population. 1. The calcification of the blood vessels is a huge problem caused by dairy products, industrial processed food, meat…The Japanese have designed 1000 years ago the dish Natto, that are special fermented Soybeans with Vitamin K2 that drives the calcium from the blood into the bones!In addition, we have to purify the blood and kidneys with juice from Watermelon with the peel, at least 1/2l per day for at least 2 months. And to clean the liver with milk thistle supplement for at least 6 weeks. 2. Through the bad soil that we have today, our fruits and vegetables have lost 90% of their nutrition within 100 years… So that the population eats too less nutrition. What is needed for the hairs? Fish collagen or Gelatin.Silica for stronger and flexible hairs and bones that hinder them to break too fast…Natto or Vitamin K2 in MK7 form.Biotin.Vitamin B6.Copper, Zinc.And you should eat pro-biotic in the form of fermented vegetables, soybeans, or pro-biotic supplement every day. Because then your digest system will work so much better and can get much more nutrition out of your food. 3. Avoid stress…How to prevent and regrow the hair…1. Apply Biotin as conditioner and/or take a biotin supplement. Biotin is a vitamin B component and so not harmful. I have tried Biotin Conditioner from Avalon Organics already over 2 years, and it helps… In the long run the medicaments minoxidil and finasteride for hair loss are harming and not useful. 2. Low level laser therapy for pattern balding with Infrared Laser LED.This device is expensive you get it from Amazon and eBay. So more laser diodes so better… It has positive science proofed results for hair loss. But the results are different… So shorter your hair, so better, because the hairs are blocking the infrared light… A laser comb makes more sense.  3. Soft Head massage daily 20 minutes. Science proofed. 4. Micro needling only useful when done by specialists. Science proofed.5. Hair implant are too expensive. 6. Onion Juice, I am doing it already… It is cheap and affordable with positive science proofed results…  On a 14 days survive, done with 2 times/day onion juice on the head, even bald patches on the head could grow hair. Try out 14 days onion juice on the head for 1 hour, once a day for every day. And then every second/third day… 2 mid-size onions (5cm diameter) should be enough… Juice the onions, wash your hair before, dry the hair until they are only wet. And slowly put the onion juice on your head and let them 1 hour on your head. Wash the onion juice out of your hair only with water is the best.… Don't cry… The first 3 times it is not so easy (without pain, no gain) after that it is easy to do… 7. Rosemary oil is proved for helping hair loss and regrowing hairs, it gets the same results like minoxidil and finasteride without side effects. You can use only 3 drops (never above 5 drops) of rosemary 100% essential oil for every application. Blend it with water, Baby shampoo and foam it up with a paint brush… and then you massage it softly on your scalp… Let it soak for 2 minutes… Or blend rosemary oil together with apple cider water, conditioner, or with hair oil, best is almond oil for your scalp. The other option is to cook water with rosemary, cool it down until the water is red, filter the rosemary out. Wash your hair, spray the rosemary-water in your hair, massage it… After 1 hour wash the hairs again with water, otherwise the skin can dry out... You can keep Rosemary water in the refrigerator only 5 daysMy Video: Hair loss remedies https://youtu.be/pgoXAZSFTscMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast2/Hair-loss-remedies.mp3

#AskDrJohnWatts Different questions related to baldness, hair grafts, hair loss, hair transplant procedures and medical treatments for hair loss are being raised by patients now and then, including the followers of Dr John Watts, who keep flooding his series of hugely popular educational videos on his popular YouTube channel with queries related to different hair issues. In this educational video session, Hyderabad's noted dermatologist & trichologist and one of the Best Hair Transplant Surgeons in Hyderabad, Dr John Watts busts the myth surrounding the use of onion juice or extracts in hair care products like shampoos or oils. Do they work? Can they regrow dense and long hair on bald spots? Are they the right solution for baldness? Dr John Watts answers such questions in detail. So far, he has performed over 2000+ hair transplant surgeries successfully. Sai Ranga asks: Sir, can onion juice or extracts generate new hair on bald spots on the scalp? If not, then why hair care products are marketing with onion as an ingredient? Can they help regrow long and dense hair? Is it true? Please explain. Hair loss is a common concern for many individuals, and in the search for a solution, myths often arise. One such myth involves the use of onion juice on the scalp to regrow hair on bald spots. However, according to Dr John Watts, this belief is untrue. “Onion juice cannot magically generate long and dense hair on bald spots. The spread of such myths can be attributed to various factors. Hence, they should be cautious,” he explained. Firstly, hair product companies may promote the benefits of onion juice to gain the trust of their customers. They highlight the potential of this ingredient, even though most products may not contain pure onion juice but rather a chemical combination derived from it. However, some companies may use the active herbal ingredient in their hair products, such as shampoos or oils. Secondly, individuals often fall victim to marketing tricks and fail to verify the first-hand experiences or feedback of users or their friends who might have used it and formed their opinions. “They may believe the claims without seeking reliable evidence or testimonials. It is important to approach such claims with a critical mindset and seek professional advice,” he said. Dr John Watts clarifies that the use of onion juice may stimulate baby hair growth due to its stimulating or external irritating factors, but it cannot effectively address bald spots. If individuals are experiencing hair loss and other remedies have not been successful, a hair transplant procedure can be considered. However, it is crucial to have a sufficient number of healthy donor hairs on the scalp or body for the transplant to be successful. Conclusion: The belief that onion juice can magically regrow hair on bald spots is a myth. It is essential to rely on scientific evidence and consult with professionals when seeking solutions for hair loss. While onion juice may have some benefits, it is not a miracle cure for baldness. Trichos provides state-of-the-art treatment for various hair loss conditions and offers advanced hair transplant solutions. Call us Today for a Life-Changing Experience.

With the world running the rat-race with newfound cosmetics and millions of brands competing, we tend to forget the age-old home remedies. We grow old, watching our mothers and grandmothers use the most absurd ingredients for their thick hair or pimple-free skin. We might wrinkle our nose at the smell of these mixtures or think in our minds secretly that they have gone crazy for choosing such ingredients. But we cannot help but stare in awe when we watch the results of their weird combinations. The ingredients for home remedies need not be rare; they can be the daily used potato for removing marks from your skin or cucumber skin to remove dark patches. One other such remedy that can sound daunting but is marvelous when used is onion juice for preventing hair fall. In the currently polluted world, pampering your hair is a task, and the various shampoos and conditioners filled with different chemicals, do not seem to help. However, if you use onion juice for hair fall and then use Multani mitti to wash it, it can do wonders. For complete step by step details visit http://www.beautyduniya.in

One such alternative of chemical hair products is onion juice. But how to use that? How often should we use that? And most importantly is it safe to use that? We'll get to know everything in detail. Onions have strong antibacterial and anti-fungal properties. Using onion for hair is good as it prevents many hair issues. Some of the amazing benefits of onion juice for hair: Onions restore lost nutrients and make your hair healthy. It Minimizes breakage and thinning as they are rich in Sulphur. Sulfur is needed for the production of enzymes and proteins. It is also found in Keratin, an important protein for hair. Because of the antibacterial and anti-fungal properties of onions, your scalp remains free from infections. That means less hair fall. Onions are natural antioxidants and hence prevent the graying of hair. When used permanently, onions can add shine to your hair. Keeps your hair lice free. Onion juice adds volume to your hair.

If it goes into your eyes, rinse it away with cool water.

We all have roadblocks that we struggle to overcome, leaving us unable to reach success in things we want to accomplish. As I go through my daily routine, I keep track and write every idea that pops into my head in a journal. Those deep thoughts don’t always become full podcasts, but today I’m taking the things that have been mulling around in my head and sharing them with you. I know you’ll find some hard truths to face and hopefully some great ideas to kick you out of complacency.  Outline of this great episode [3:39] Why asking for help is a strength, not a weakness [6:25] How you do anything is how you do everything [8:55] Learn how to say no and avoid stress [12:19] Setting proper deadlines increases productivity [14:00] Stop being someone that you are not! [16:55] Don’t be afraid to be wrong and learn from mistakes Asking for help is a strength—not a weakness! Look, we all tend to come into this job believing we need to be a powerhouse. I’ve been in the industry for 17 years and felt that I needed to know all the answers. I’m here to tell you that no matter how long you’ve been in the business, you can always learn. Don’t be ashamed when you don’t know something. Instead, swallow your pride, overcome your fear, and ask for help when you need it. Stop believing the lie that asking for help is a weakness and reach out for help.  Be responsible and consistent with the little things to be successful with the big things Forming healthy habits can be a gamechanger—and potentially one of the hardest things you’ll ever do. It requires consistency and taking responsibility for the little things so you can be trusted with the big things. Everyone has a different spin on how long it takes to form a habit, right? Some stand by the old adage that you can learn to be consistent with a habit in 21 days. I believe it takes closer to 90 days to really form a lifelong habit. But if you can be consistent with something as small as making your be, what other things will you be able to accomplish? Your success is based on learning how to sayNO Nobody likes to say no. We are so driven to fill our schedules and do as much as possible that we start saying yes to things that we just shouldn’t prioritize. Are you on the same wavelength as a seller? Are they willing to follow your way of doing things? If not, let them go. You’ll waste your time and energy if you have to veer from what you do and it could prevent you from other transactions where your time is better spent. Set boundaries and guidelines, and say no when you need to. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes and allow yourself to grow from them Fear can be paralyzing. We have such an innate fear of ‘being wrong’ that we often don’t implement new ideas. When I started the Onion Juice podcast I wanted to teach people something to attract business—not chase it. After I gained more experience coaching, I realized this tactic can take 18-24 months for you to see steady business. For most people this is not a sustainable business model. I had to pivot, embrace that I was wrong, and retract some of what I had taught. I hope I can be an example for you that you can adapt and learn as you go. So just go out there and get started and don’t be afraid to make changes.   Recommended Resources How To Build A 6 Figure Real Estate Business That Eliminates The Commission Roller Coaster, Without Forcing Yourself To Do Things You Hate Easy Agent Pro - to get a website like mine (neilmathweg.com) go to www.easyagentpro.com/oj Shred Media - to take your digital marketing to next level go to www.ShredMedia.com To hear more great shows like Agent Rise visit www.industrysyndicate.com.

Wow! It’s amazing to think that this podcast has actually reached 200 episodes. I remember way back when I started the Onion Juice Podcast - which was the first 171 episodes AND the craziest name for a podcast EVER - that I was somewhere around episode #9 and thought, “I think I’ve said everything I know to say!” At that moment, I panicked. I thought I was done. But I kept trying and figured out that there is a lot of my story that resonates with others and that I could share what I was learning as I kept iterating and building my own business. So that’s what I did. This episode recounts the story briefly - but more importantly, it clearly defines what I mean when I call you a “Riser” and where we are headed with this podcast. None of us in real estate start with everything already figured out If you feel like you’re learning on the job as an agent, welcome to the club! It’s a tough industry and has a lot of moving parts that successful agents need to keep track of. But if my story proves anything, it proves that it can be done if you are willing to stick with it. I’ve tried just about everything and if you’ve been listening to the show for any length of time you know about many of my successes, but also the failures and false starts. Along the way, one of the most important things I’ve learned is that successful agents need to be “Risers” - which is what I believe YOU are. Here’s what I mean... What is a Riser? I hope it doesn’t come across as sappy, but I wrote a poem - well, sort of a poem. Not really - it’s more of a manifesto, a call to action, a battle cry for all of us who want to succeed in real estate and are willing to work according to our unique individual strengths to make it happen. Here’s To The Risers Here’s to the Risers.  To the fighters the survivors, the stay up all-nighters. The ones with desire, with fire, who want to inspire.  You can’t ignore them. They won’t back down.  They won’t give up.  They are a Riser.  They know what they need to do.  They have a clear plan.  They work according to a vision. They avoid shiny objects.  They are consistent.  They are 100% responsible, failure isn’t possible.  They are a Riser.  They know the door is revolving. That won’t stop them. They know the odds are against them.  They don’t care.  They follow the steps. They work with confidence. And at the end of the day, They know they are well on their way. They are a Riser.  Is that you? Since you are listening to this podcast, I suspect it is. Listen to this episode to learn how you can join with other Risers who are taking their real estate business to the next level. Simplify and Amplify: That’s how you grow your real estate business Next week’s episode is all about this - but I want to introduce you to the topic now. There are really only two things we need to do in order to get our business going toward the next level: Simplify and Amplify. SIMPLIFY means that you break your business down into its simplest components. It means getting rid of shiny objects, turning off the noise, and dialing-in the processes and approaches that work for your unique personality. Once you do that, you’re able to put a plan in place that works for YOU consistently and effectively. AMPLIFY means that you take what you’ve simplified and make it known, increase it, and scale it to the point your business is rocking right along. And you keep doing it. More on these next week, so be sure you subscribe so you won’t miss it. Outline of this great episode [0:33] What does it mean to be a “Riser?” [5:29] Where are we going from here?

It’s been a while since I have talked about building your attraction pillar, so I thought a great way to revisit the topic would be to give you 18 Youtube titles you can use to ramp up your Youtube channel or get a new one started. Youtube is a powerful discovery and distribution channel. It’s one way agents can put themselves on the map with people looking to move to their city or sell there existing home. People use Youtube to educate and entertain themselves and you can take advantage of that fact to build a platform that doesn’t stop working for you. But it’s often hard to get started because you don’t have a good idea of the topics that would make for good Youtube videos. That’s what this episode is all about! Listen to learn! City specific topics are powerful for Youtube titles for agents to use Every real estate agent is working in a geographic location (DUH) and most are in cities. The people you serve in that location are very interested in what that city has to offer, especially if they are new to the city or are considering a move there. What a great opportunity for you to create helpful videos that give them the exact information they are looking for. Consider creating a number of “top 10” or “top 5” type videos. Here are some starter ideas… 10 reasons to move to YOUR CITY 5 of the best places to eat in YOUR CITY Things to do in YOUR CITY Get the point? My recommendation is to record these videos outside, record some b-roll footage of the places you’re talking about in the videos, and make it engaging for your viewers. That’s just one of my ideas - listen to hear all of them! Try these real estate related Youtube titles that are not dumb It’s great to create content that’s about your location, but you also need to demonstrate your expertise as a real estate agent. But most real estate videos are boring and dumb. You don’t want to be that. Here are some great ideas for helpful content to get you started: Why don’t I write my offer subject to sale? Do I need to stage my home? Why are most of the listings on Zillow sold by the time I call? Can prices keep rising like this? Why is inventory so low? OR How can I take advantage of low inventory? How can I get my home to sell quickly? Questions you receive are HUGE opportunities to produce relevant videos If you sat down to do a brainstorming session for yourself and came up with every video title you can think of to put on your Youtube channel, I’m confident you’d find at least as many as I did. But then what? What do you do when you run out of ideas? I’ve discovered that the questions you get from customers, clients, people in your community, and co-workers usually make for excellent video topics. That’s because you can be sure that if one person is asking you the question personally, many others are wondering about it as well. They just haven’t asked. That’s a great opportunity for you to create content people are already searching for - and it positions you as the expert who can help them with other needs, like buying and selling their home. Find the consistent creation cadence that fits you best Establishing a Youtube channel is hard work, but it’s work that is well worth the effort. Many agents start elements of their attraction pillar (like a Youtube channel) without having their eyes wide open to what it’s going to require of them. That’s a recipe for failure. You’ve got to examine your existing life and work rhythms in order to determine how and when you can insert video content creation into your schedule. If you don’t, your Youtube channel is  going to start in a blaze and end in a flicker. I suggest you start when you are the busiest, like in the Spring. That way you’ll see firsthand how hard it’s really going to be during your most busy time and can make the adjustments you need to make.

Having a clear real estate business plan will help you become an uncommon agent in 2019. The “play it by ear” mindset is common and is the reason most agents fail in real estate after five years. Don’t let that be your story! On the first episode as the Agent Rise Podcast,I’m going to tell you EXACTLY what I’m doing with my real estate business in 2019 and why it’s going to help all of us get to the next level in the new year. Your three pillars are still IN for 2019 Don’t worry folks! Names might be changing around here, but the essentials are not. In order to be successful as a real estate agent, you still need a sphere of influence, chase, and attraction pillar. Do you know what those are? If you do, do you know how you’re going to make them work for you in 2019? This is why having a clear real estate business plan is crucial to making this year your best year ever. You can’t achieve your goals without clearly understanding what you are going to do to get there. Let’s get clarity and get going! Make 2019 the “Year of the Sphere” Cheesy? Yes. Important? Still yes. While your three pillars are essential, not all pillars are created equal. The whole reason I shifted away from the Onion Juice brand is that it was founded on the idea that the other two pillars should take a back seat to your attraction pillar. And while being a media company that also sells real estate is fun, it’s not always functional. You need to chase business. More importantly, you NEED to love on your sphere of influence. That’s why my clear real estate business plan for 2019 is all about my sphere of influence. Want to learn more? Hit play on this episode. It’s time to capitalize on what’s driving your real estate business Everyone I’ve talked to in the Agent Rise Facebook group has told me that the number one thing driving their business is their sphere of influence. This is where leads become clients people. This year I’m committed to doubling down on my sphere of influence. So much so, that I’m diverting money from my chase in order to do just that. Please don’t hear that your chase isn’t important from that sentence! I’m also going to declutter my chase and double down on open house as well. It’s going to be a big year! Are you ready to go big and sell homes? Work smarter, not harder on your attraction pillar Guys, I almost became a hypocrite. I had all these plans to blow up my attraction pillar in 2019. Then that little Neil voice from Episode 161 started ringing in my ears and I realized how distracted I was. The amount of time and energy I was about to dump into my attraction was SCARY. Can anyone relate? Have you caught yourself letting your attraction become your distraction yet in 2019? It’s ok to admit it. This is a safe place. The key is to get a clear plan to work smarter and not harder on your attraction pillar. You’ve got to find your cadence in things that can manageably grow your attraction without sucking massive amounts of resources. Easier said than done? Take a listen to this episode to help you break out of that limiting mindset. Outline of this great episode [2:00] I’m kicking off Agent Rise with an exciting announcement! [5:30] What I’m doing in 2019 to take my real estate business to the next level [8:32] Why 2019 will be the“Year of the Sphere” [13:26] How to capitalize on what’s driving your business [15:43] I’m listening to my own advice about attraction pillars in 2019 [21:18] Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better...another exciting announcement!

The Best Of The Onion Juice Podcast (Part 2) - Episode #171 Ladies and gentleman, it’s time to say goodbye to the Onion Juice Podcast. No, these tears are not from ACTUAL onion juice. It’s because this marks the end of an era. THANK YOU for helping me take something weird and make it popular. Of course, the podcast itself isn’t going anywhere. Just the name. So join me after the new year for the very first episode of Agent Rise with Neil Mathweg. But for now, enjoy the conclusion of the best of the Onion Juice Podcast! Do not put attraction above sphere or chase If you take a close look at who is liking and sharing your content online, you will find that less than 50% of your sphere of influence are the ones on Facebook or Youtube. Across all of my media platforms, most of the likes and comments come from photographers, videographers, and foodies. I love those guys, but they are not the ones who will be referring me or sending me leads. After over a year of hosting the I Love Madison Show, I JUST got two POSSIBLE leads that may turn into business. If I was relying on ILM for all my business, I would be starving. The vast majority of the clients I have worked with come from my chase pillar and my sphere of influence. If you don’t have a database, that’s where you need to start. An excel spreadsheet and a mailing list. Simple. That time I told you to “Get Angry!” You have an enemy that does not want you to succeed! That enemy only has power as long as you let fear run your life. That enemy wants to steal, kill and destroy everything that you are working on, and he uses fear to do it! To overcome that, it requires to get angry at the enemy (not at each other, mind you), call him out and strip him of his power! If that sounds like I’m preaching, good! You know best where fear has been given free reign in your life or business. Maybe it’s hiring a coach, or hitting a sales goal. As you eliminate fear, your confidence grows, and your way of thinking starts to shift. Are you working in excellence? I know there are STILL areas in your life and business where you are not doing all that you can do, you are not working in excellence. How do I know this? Because there are areas in MY life where I am taking the same approach. It’s not just a real estate thing, it’s a human thing. Often, we rest when we could be sowing seeds. Just because you sent an email or posted a new ad on Facebook does not mean you are done. Ask yourself, what do you want your “harvest” to look like? What do you need it to look like to see your life vision realized? Whatever picture you have in your head, you have to sow seeds accordingly and harvest accordingly. Remember to ALWAYS be yourself For real estate agents struggling to market themselves and attract more customers, Jason Kotecki said on Episode 109 that the key to success is to be your unique, authentic self. Instead of only thinking of yourself as an agent, remember that you are also an artist, and artists use their art to attract people. You’re thinking “dude, I can’t paint, and singing is an ABSOLUTE NO,” so how does that work? Jason reminded me that being yourself, allowing your personality and humor to shine is the best way to build relationships. “If you are watching and copying another person’s approach, chances are you are a second-rate version of the person you are copying, instead of a first-rate version of yourself,” he said. Take your JOB seriously, but don’t take YOURSELF so seriously. [2:44] Don’t let your attraction become your distraction [9:00] Dealing with the fear of success [19:26] Don’t sleep during the harvest!

As we prepare to say goodbye to the Onion Juice Podcast, let’s take a stroll down memory lane at some of the best moments we’ve shared Juicers! I’m not gonna lie, I got a little teary-eyed putting the content together for this episode because it has been an incredible journey getting to this point. I am so thankful for every moment. From starting with a little microphone in a closet at my house to gaining great sponsors who believed in my vision enough to take a chance on this show and invest in the content production. And YOU! Onion Juice would be nothing without everyone who has listened and supported the podcast from day one. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the best of the Onion Juice Podcast! These guys said the things that most Real Estate agents wish they had said Onion Juice was all about shaking up the real estate industry. On Episode 14, I spoke with a couple of guys who are definitely doing that. Eric and Wes of The Broke Agent talked honestly about the good, bad, and ugly of real estate and said things that I honestly wish I had the guts to say, simply because it’s true. That kind of authenticity has given the guys a great impact on the market as well as quite a following on social media. In this clip, you’re going to get a taste for what they’re doing and hopefully hear some ways you can adjust your approach to social media and help your business get a lot more engagement. There are LOTS of realtors, but very few artists among them. On Episode 35, I reminisced about listening to singer-songwriter Michael Shynes perform. I noticed that what made him really compelling was the little stories he told before each song. He pulled people in by sharing his story, sometimes some very personal and unflattering details about his past. That’s how you connect with people! Tell your story. People don’t want to listen to you promote your business, but if you can open up to them, let them know who you really are, that’s where powerful connections happen. A realtor can draw inspiration from the artist’s model on so many levels! It sounds crazy to think that you CAN be 100% responsible That’s what I first thought when I was handed a document from my mentor that told me that I was 100% responsible. I mean, there are things that happen in the world that I can’t control. Things that I can’t change. How can I be 100% responsible? You know, maybe 85% or something, but not 100%! I read through the document over and over and over - over the course of 8 months - and the truth of it began to sink in. The results that I want to see happen in my life are not dependent on anyone or anything besides me. I AM 100% responsible. So are you, my friend. It’s time for us to get over ourselves and start doing what only we can do. Relive this awesome moment from Episode 42! You might feel like a failure because you are STILL comparing yourself to other agents Yes, there are tried and true things that work in the real estate industry. But more and more these days they are becoming “tried and untrue.” That’s because the culture has changed and sales methods that used to work simply don’t appeal to the customers who we’re dealing with these days. That means you’ve got to adapt. You’ve got to quit looking at what other agents are doing to drive their success and determine who you are and what fits YOU. I’m convinced that as you learn who you are and begin operating in your areas of strength you’ll find the real estate business to be much more enjoyable and profitable.

For three incredible years, I’ve been the host of the Onion Juice Podcast. From day one I set out to make content that challenged the status quo and helped real estate agents achieve their potential by doing things differently. Oh don’t worry, none of that is going to change! What IS changing is the Onion Juice name. Believe me when I say that I love it as much as you do, but the mission has outgrown the name. There is a new season on the horizon Juicers and I can’t wait to tell you about it! A real estate business built solely on attraction will die “Neil, why in the world would you change the name of the Onion Juice Podcast?!” If this is your reaction to the name change announcement I totally get it but hear me out. When I started Onion Juice three years ago I did it to help real estate agents stop chasing business and start attracting it through an attraction pillar. Over the last 100 episodes of this show, I have steadily moved away from attraction pillars even going as far as to say they can be a distraction. Don’t get me wrong! I love being a media company that also sells real estate as much as anyone, but if you only have an attraction pillar your business will fail. You need healthy sphere of influence and chase pillars to really thrive in our industry. That’s not the message Onion Juice was created for which is exactly why it’s time for a change. Your mindset determines the effectiveness of your method If you’ve been listening to the Onion Juice Podcast over the last few months you’ve probably noticed that my focus has shifted away from real estate methods and on to the mindset of a real estate agent. Not that methods aren’t important because they totally are! However, without the proper mindset all of the best methods in the world will only be half as effective. Things like discipline, consistency, and goal setting are becoming the core of this show’s content and after much thought and feedback from listeners, I’ve decided that the Onion Juice brand is too small to carry that message. We’ve outgrown it! I say WE because this has never been my show. It’s OUR show and I’m so excited to take the next step in this journey with you. What’s your excuse for not having a real estate database? I am blown away by how many listeners of the Onion Juice Podcast do not have a database. Seriously! It’s a problem. The reason most agents don’t have a database or why they don’t do anything to help their sphere of influence is that they spend all of their energy on social media content and attraction pillars. If you aren’t doing vital things like making phone calls or working with consumers because you are producing your latest video, you my friend are distracted. Stop trying to win popularity contests and start building your business! Let me be clear: attraction pillars aren’t bad. They just take too long to be effective when you need results right now. I couldn’t even imagine myself saying that last part three years ago. I’ve changed! This is why the Onion Juice name is changing too. 2019 will be our best year yet I am SO excited for the clock to strike midnight on New Year’s Day because this year is going to be one to remember. New podcast name. New logo. It’s all happening! If that wasn’t exciting enough, the next round of Bootcamp is coming as well. Don’t worry though! We’re not going to end this year without saying goodbye to the Onion Juice Podcast in a big way. This episode also contains all of the ways you can become an uncommon real estate agent in the coming year including a very special event happening in 2019. You don’t want to miss a second of this action-packed episode!

If you’re anything like me, the idea that discipline equals freedom feels like a very foreign concept. In fact, up until three weeks ago I would have told you that the two have little to do with each other. Childhood taught us that discipline is what happens when we do something wrong and forever associated the concept with negativity. It’s time to break that mindset! The reality is that without proper discipline as a kid I would not be the person I am today. Let me show you how embracing discipline will bring freedom to your life and real estate business. Discipline and consistency are the building blocks of your dreams I was recently reminded of a Denzel Washington quote that states “Dreams without goals remain dreams.” How true is that! You can’t achieve your dreams if you don’t have goals and you will never reach your goals without discipline and consistency. They are the sticky mortar that holds your dreams together. It’s easy to dream about the future and get excited by the success you would like to have in your real estate business. Sadly, dreams are all those ideas will ever be. Don’t just start something out of excitement and give it up out of a lack of discipline. Be an uncommon agent and follow through with your ideas! Opportunities flow out of the freedom that discipline creates Whether we like it or not, discipline equals freedom because of the opportunities it creates. Money is such a great example of this. The more disciplined we are with our finances the more opportunities we have down the road. If I save my money now and sacrifice what I want to do in the moment I’m going to reap the benefit of financial freedom later. The same is true for your real estate business. If you are disciplined in what you need to do and when you have to do it your whole world will open up with different opportunities. You will be able to spend time doing what you want to do if you are focused on doing what needs to be done consistently. Your real estate success does not require motivation Ok, I get that downplaying the role of motivation in your real estate success can be confusing. Let me ask you a question though: How often do you feel motivated? Seriously. How often do you allow motivation to determine your workflow and what would your business look like if your success wasn’t determined by whether you felt motivated or not? This is another key reason why discipline equals freedom. Discipline allows you to work hard long after the motivation to do so runs out. Imagine the amount of time you would save by being disciplined instead of trying to find things to keep you motivated. You can afford to let motivation run out, but you can’t afford to lose your discipline. Find out what’s driving your real estate business Have you ever fallen asleep on a long car trip? You doze off while Steve is driving and when you wake up he is sitting right next to you in the back seat. “Who’s driving this thing?!” Obviously someone is driving, but for that brief moment of terror and confusion you’re not sure if the next few moments will be your last. This example is silly, but it’s an unfortunate picture of the common real estate agent. You HAVE to know what’s driving your business! Whether that’s taking self-inventory, getting some kind of coaching, or both it is essential to know the factors contributing to your success. From there it’s time to step on the gas and stay consistent in doing the things that will propel your business forward. Just don’t fall asleep at the wheel! Outline of this great episode [0:53] Something changed in me three weeks ago...

Are you struggling to stay disciplined as a real estate agent? I won’t lie to you friend, remaining disciplined is NOT easy. The majority of our struggle is wrapped up in the lie we’ve told ourselves that discipline is a bad word. It’s not! Actually, the more I think about it the more I have come to realize that self-discipline and self-love are the same things. Today I want to tackle the negative vibe around the word discipline and show you how vital it is in loving yourself and growing your real estate business. It’s time to eliminate the stigma around staying disciplined Parents who love their kids will discipline their kids. It’s a fact we can’t avoid because we know without our direction they will not reach their full potential. Even if that means making them do things that they don’t want to do in the moment. I hate to break it to you realtors, but we are no different. If you want to achieve your desired level of growth you are going to have to stay disciplined. This isn’t some crazy perfectionist manifesto. It’s a call to love yourself by doing the things necessary to reach your full potential as a real estate agent. Let me help you break of your limiting beliefs around discipline so you can begin to love yourself consistently. Figure out the barriers that are holding you back Self-awareness is the key to success. I didn’t come up with that, but I’ll preach it all day long. Allowing something to hold you back simply because you are not aware of it is a poor excuse for falling short of your goals. It is vital that you identify the barriers that are holding you back and stay disciplined in doing the things necessary to break through them. This is why I always pair clarity with consistency. Knowing really is half the battle. You can’t love yourself properly if you are not willing to discover the things that are hurting you and your real estate business. Consistently making the right choices is the key to growth “What in the world does salad dressing have to do with growing my real estate business?” Everything, my friend. Everything. My personal weight loss journey has taught me that even the smallest compromise can stall success. Like putting too much salad dressing on a salad, a lack of consistency in your decision making can derail your progress and prevent you from reaching your goals. Learning how to make the right choices on a day to day, hour to hour, and minute by minute basis is the key to understanding why staying disciplined is loving yourself. This episode is designed to show you how even the smallest of decisions can have the greatest impact on your real estate business. Stop indulging in bad decisions Some of you might believe there is no harm in letting off the gas every now and then. You may even believe compromise is a healthy reward for consistency. Well, it’s not. It’s a recipe for mediocrity. Think about it this way: If self-love is consistently making the right choices in order to achieve your goals then why would occasionally making bad decisions be good for you? Loving yourself is being willing to do what is necessary in order to grow your business. It’s making the phone calls you need to make. It’s putting in the work even when it’s inconvenient. I understand that you may not even know where to start. Let me give you the resources to stay consistent and do even the difficult things well. Outline of this great episode [0:42] How can real estate agents love themselves?

Do you have what it takes to reach your real estate goals? Almost every agent I know has an idea of what success looks like for them. I’m sure that even as you read this you are picturing what it would look like to reach that eagerly desired place. So what’s holding you back? Seriously. If I had to take a guess it would be that you are believing lies about yourself and your business that are keeping you from achieving your true potential. Limiting beliefs are putting a ceiling on your profits and growth. NOW is the time to take a hard look in the mirror and break out of the common mold! Let me help you eliminate the limits on your real estate goals. Stop making discipline a bad word If I were to tell you that the path to reaching all of your real estate goals is an easy one I would be lying to you. It’s not. However, that path is far from an impossible path to walk. It just takes discipline. Yeah, I said it. You have to begin making good decisions for yourself and your business consistently without indulging in distractions or taking the easy way out. I know how difficult that can be. My personal weight loss journey has taught me that making the right choices daily is difficult, but it’s also critical to my success. This is true for you too! Stop making discipline a bad word and start doing what is necessary to get your business healthy and growing. Know you’re heading in the right direction It’s easy to get lost in the vast world of real estate marketing strategies. Like I’ve said before, the problem with having so many different approaches available is that most of them work on a limited basis. You can end up functioning more like a scattered shotgun when you need to be a laser-focused sniper rifle. Targeting the right tactics is what will get you to your real estate goals. You will never have to guess if you’re headed in the right direction if you use your three pillars to develop a clear plan. Let me show you how to go from being lost to establishing a legacy with your real estate business. Stop letting what you can’t see limit you It’s CRAZY to me how many new or stuck agents are not interested in coaching. I get wanting to figure things out for yourself, but friends, let’s work smarter and not harder. An outside perspective can be a game changer in developing an effective strategy as well as providing the accountability needed to stick to it. This has never been more clear to me than in my own journey to lose weight and get healthy. For the first time ever, I have someone coaching me and that has given me the skills I need to not only get results but also stay successful. This is why I do what I do. I rarely have an agent come to me with a flawless business plan. There are always a few blind spots that I can help them correct in order to get to the next level. Today I’m going to help you see some of the things you’ve been missing so that nothing will hold you back from achieving your real estate goals. Don’t stop fighting to be an uncommon real estate agent “Neil, no one is doing the things you’re telling us to do.” I hear that all the time. It’s easy to get discouraged when you are working twice as hard as the agent next to you. Here’s the thing: While they might be working to build today, you are working to build tomorrow. Having a clear plan, working off of a three-pillar system, and remaining consistent are all things that build a legacy and not just a paycheck. Eighty percent of real estate agents drop out of this business and that is the last thing I want for you. Not only that, but I want you to thrive in the real estate business and not just survive. That will only happen if you commit yourself to being an uncommon real estate agent for the long haul. But you’re not alone! I’m here to help.

Real estate success is something every agent wants and few actually achieve. Most realtors are either just starting out and nowhere near where they want to be or they’ve been at the same place for a while and can’t seem to reach the next level. In any case, they feel stuck and don’t know how to move forward. The absolute WORST thing you can do is to keep doing the same things that got you stuck in the first place. It’s time for a shakeup! Let me help you break out of the habits that are holding you back so you can find the success you were meant to achieve. Real estate success for 2019 starts NOW “Let’s get together after the first of the year” is a response I wish I never had to hear again. Sadly, I know that it will be used to put off the steps necessary to achieve real estate success time and time again. It might as well be the stuck agent’s mantra. I get it. The holidays are a crazy time and it’s easier to start something new on January one than it is to do so while drowning in a sea of grandma’s sweet potato casserole. But can I suggest something to you? How you end this year is how you are going to start 2019. Wouldn’t you rather hit the ground running? Don’t let the end of the year keep you from your new beginning. Let me give you the tools to make 2019 your best year ever. Clutter is keeping you from success in your real estate business Life as a new real estate agent can be pretty overwhelming. There is so much to do and so many avenues you can take to grow your business. The problem is most of them work. I know that doesn’t sound like a problem, but hear me out. Most strategies will grant you some level of success. However, a few clients here and there isn’t the kind of success you set out to achieve. If you’re doing too much of EVERYTHING then you are doing NOTHING well. Stop cluttering your life with all of the wrong things and start going after the three pillars that will actually grow your business. Your sphere of influence, chase, and attraction pillars will help you get the kind of success you’re looking for and I’m the guy to help you master them. Limiting beliefs are limiting your success in real estate Even experienced agents need to clear out the clutter and focus on what’s important. The struggle for someone who has been in this business for a while is that the clutter isn’t on your calendar. The clutter is in your mind. The experience of a past failure creates the foundation for lies that will do nothing but hold you back. Telling yourself that a strategy doesn’t work just because you tried it once is a quick way to limit your success. Did you spend enough time? Did you execute your plan effectively? These are all questions an outside perspective can help you answer honestly. That’s where I come in. Let me help you tear down the limiting beliefs that are holding you back from the next level of real estate success. Complacency is killing your potential Les Brown once said that the richest places in the world are graveyards because of all of the unreached potential they contain. That statement is especially true for complacent real estate agents. Too many agents I know reach a point where their results start to outweigh their efforts and they get comfortable. They decide to ride that wave of easy business off into the sunset. I beg you my friend, resist that urge! If you let off the gas now you are missing the opportunity to grow personally and bless other people as a leader. Through clarity and consistency, you have an opportunity to make an impact and achieve true real estate success. Start living like few people are willing to live so you can do the things few people will get to do.

Do you have what it takes to be an uncommon real estate agent? No seriously, do you? SO many real estate agents are common because they just do what everyone else does. That’s why eighty percent of agents leave this business and only one percent are successful. Honestly, that makes me angry. Stop being okay with being okay! Today is the day my friend. I want to help you break out of the common herd mentality and start becoming an uncommon real estate agent. Without a clear and predictable business plan you are going to drown I’ve had the privilege of teaching numerous agents how to be uncommon and watched as they experienced a business breakthrough. The reason? I was able to help them get a clear plan for their business that implemented systems which created predictability. “But Neil, how could you possibly create predictability in real estate?” I can hear you asking that question all the way from Wisconsin. Of course, there are things in this business that are unpredictable. Inspections can cause delays and financing can fall short. I get it. I’m a real estate agent too after all. But there are ways of setting expectations and coaching your clients where even the craziest of situations can have a process. Stop figuring it out as you go along and let me help you become uncommon. You are burning out because you don’t have boundaries? If I’ve heard it once I’ve heard it a thousand times: “I will take time off when I can.” The only thing that promises is that you will almost NEVER have a day off. The reality is you NEED boundaries in your life. My line in the sand is that Sundays are for church, family, and that’s IT. If that sounds crazy to you it’s probably because you are operating out of fear and scarcity and not abundance. Stop assuming your clients will reject you for prioritizing family and rest. Almost none of them will! If anyone does, you probably don’t want to work with them anyway. In my experience, your clients will respect you for having boundaries and see you as the real deal because you are an uncommon real estate agent. How you handle your taxes will tell you if you are an uncommon real estate agent “Neil, EVERYONE is doing it.” I know. I did it for a long time too. I, like you, scrambled from April till June hoping my closings during those months would help me break even on my taxes. I don’t even want to think what would have happened if something fell through. You shouldn't either! Start planning ahead for tax season by factoring your losses, expenses, and taxes into your actual profits. Use a monthly budget to pay for everything as you go and stop budgeting with guesses and prayers at the end of your fiscal year. That’s what common agents do. You want to be an uncommon real estate agent, right? Thought so. Your success will only reach the level that your fear allows The number one reason someone says no to my Bootcamp or coaching is the fear of success. I can’t tell you the number of real estate agents I’ve interviewed who tell me they are afraid to go to the next level because “It might actually work.” They are afraid that they won’t be able to handle the workload that success might bring or any potential failure after the fact. I have one thing to say to that: STOP. Stop letting fear define your future. Stop letting what might happen keep you from what should happen. No one sets out to be a common real estate agent, but so many let fear take them out from the beginning. That doesn’t have to be your story and I want to help you write your story. Let me show you how to conquer the fear of success and be an uncommon real estate agent. Outline of this great episode [1:10] Merril Hoge has me pumped!

On this episode my good friend and the godfather himself, Neil Mathweg, joins me to talk about the many ways to generate business. Neil runs Neil Mathweg Coaching and is the host of The Onion Juice podcast where he is helping agents every day. What better person to bring on to discuss how you shouldn't ever let a coach tell you there is only ONE WAY to generate business. You need to do as many things as possible until you find the strategy that works for you.

I recently had a coaching student ask me about making a growth Investment. He said, “Neil, if you had $10,000 to invest in your business where would you put it?” This is a great question! Most people, my coaching student included, would think to put that money into their attraction pillar. After all, isn’t that what will grow your business? You BET it can! But if you are a new or a stuck real estate agent that is NOT where you should be putting your money. Today I want to show you the best areas to make a growth investment for your real estate business. Strengthen the heart of your business I always say that attraction pillars are like recess in elementary school. Who doesn’t love recess? There is a lot of fun to be had. However, that fun can steal valuable time and money you just don’t have as a new or stuck real estate agent. What you need to invest in is your chase, which honestly, is the heart of our business. An effective chase will generate solid leads and actual revenue that you can use to build your team and reinvest back into your business. Don’t know where to start? Don’t worry! I’m going to give you all the ways you can stop wasting time and start making growth investments. Avoid the attraction identity crisis So many well-meaning agents find themselves trying to BE other successful realtors because they think that will make them successful. Even I have tried to replicate the magic of the people I admire. Adopting certain habits and even strategies of thriving realtors can be helpful. This is why I do coaching in the first place! But if you spend all of your energy and resources trying to copy the latest attraction sensation you are missing out on your greatest growth investment: YOU. Being yourself and working within your own skillset will save you a TON of time and keep you from letting your attraction become a distraction. So just be you! Because you my friend, are awesome. You need a clear growth investment gameplan Are you a new agent who doesn’t have a clue where to start? Or have you been at this real estate thing for a while and you just feel stuck? It’s likely that you don’t have a clear gameplan and I want to help. Bootcamp is starting up soon and it is designed to declutter your strategy and create a tailored approach to how you should be running your business. Let me help you create consistency in your approach and your revenue stream through six weeks of live teaching and an hour of Q and A each session. Join me to learn the things that have allowed me to make quality growth investments in my business. Sign up for the next Bootcamp! It’s time to go deeper After great feedback from the Onion Juice Facebook group, I discovered that there is a desire from a lot of you to go deeper. You don’t just want to listen to good ideas, you want to learn how to do the things I talk about on this podcast. Of course, Bootcamp is one way you can do that, but it can only go so far. There is a whole world of other content you need to know and I want to teach you. I’m about to launch a paid Facebook group that will offer monthly e-courses based on the needs of the group. Learn about what YOU want to learn about! Short of one-on-one coaching this will be the most tailored experience I’ve ever offered. Make a serious growth investment in yourself and sign up for this group before it starts. Outline of this great episode [0:35] What would you do with $10,000 to make a growth investment?

“Neil, my real estate business has slowed down, what do I do?” Just this week, I have heard from 3-4 agents who feel defeated, and are noticing that the real estate rollercoaster has started to bring some extreme, unexpected dips. I know a few of you are terrified of this, so today I want to encourage you, and give you some rock-solid tips to avoid the extreme dips. Go back 90 days Ninety days ago, something happened to cause this unexpected dip you are experiencing right now. At the end of July, you may have taken a vacation, settled into your summer routine, did a few less open houses, or skipped your newsletter because you were in the middle of closing 3-4 deals. Things may have been crazy busy, so you let a few things slide off your plate. Now your plate is empty, and you are hungry. Before blaming the market, take a hard look at the last 90 days, they have a direct effect in the present. Are you working the three-pillar system? If you are experiencing an extreme dip, it’s probably because you have not been working within your three-pillar system. Are you chasing every day, does your sphere of influence know you care about them? Are you attracting business? These things are not just random, one-time strategies. These three things make up your entire plan, and most of them (with the exception of the attraction pillar) must be done every single day. That’s where a clear plan comes in. It will work, but only if you do. Extreme dips can be prevented when you are consistent I know that the market is not always going to be on an uphill climb. You will experience lots of ups and downs, but extreme dips can be prevented when you are consistent. You NEED to get a clear plan, remove the shiny object syndrome, and declutter your business. You have heard that “casting more nets” is an option, but you can’t pay attention to all of the nets, especially when you are closing multiple deals at the same time. This is why the three pillars are so powerful. Keep your foot on the pedal even when you are busy How do you keep your foot on the petal, even when you are busy? This requires a plan that will almost run itself. This is also why you need a coach. Working in your strengths is not just about your personality, it’s also about leveraging the strengths already around you. I can teach you how to do that. The goal is to make your business extremely predictable! Let’s talk about how you are positioned, and how I can help you avoid the real estate rollercoaster!

Is your attraction pillar becoming a distraction? The attraction pillar is the fun stuff...social media, Facebook ads, YouTube Videos, LinkedIn Content, among other things. I say all the time that we are media companies that happen to sell real estate. But, for many of you, your attraction pillar is actually distracting you, and your sphere of influence and your chase pillar are suffering. If this is you, I want to help you course correct, and learn how to balance your attraction, your chase, and your sphere of influence. Is your attraction pillar becoming a distraction? Shoutout to Zach and Ally from The Reality A to Z, who said “don’t let your attraction pillar become a distraction,” which inspired me to record this episode! Great advice, guys! I would love to work on my attraction pillar all the time, who wouldn’t? It’s fun to create and content and Vlog and host events. I think many of you feel the same way. The problem is, your attraction pillar can actually distract you from the work that needs to be done in your chase pillar and your sphere of influence. I know several of you that have amazing attraction pillars, and those will eventually bring you more business...but for now, you have to chase it. Do not put attraction above sphere or chase. You will starve If you take a close look at who is liking and sharing your content online, you will find that less than 50% of your sphere of influence are the ones on Facebook or Youtube. Across all of my media platforms, most of the likes and comments come from photographers, videographers, and foodies. I love those guys, but they are not the ones who will be referring me or sending me leads. After nearly a year of hosting the I Love Madison Show, I JUST got two POSSIBLE leads that may turn into business. If I was relying on ILM for all my business, I would be starving. The vast majority of the clients I have worked with come from my chase pillar and my sphere of influence. If you don’t have a database, that’s where you need to start. An excel spreadsheet and a mailing list. Simple. How can you be the only agent with a mic? Imagine that you put one hundred people in a room, and give ten of them mics and a message to communicate. Who do you listen to? Probably the person with the loudest mic, or best message, right? How do you sort through all the noise? That’s social media right...Now imagine you have the same number of people, but only one mic. That’s kind of what creating content on LinkedIn is like right now. Only 1% of people are creating content...the rest are consuming. LinkedIn has this unique position of being both an attraction pillar, as well as a chase pillar...at least for now.... The attraction pillar is your recess After your newsletters are sent out, your open houses are done, and your sphere of influence knows they are loved, you can take a recess. The attraction pillar is your recess. What content can you create to highlight your personality and passion? It’s time to publish that post, write another article, make a guest appearance on a podcast...the list goes on. This is your reward for making sure your chase pillar and sphere of influence are solid! Outline of this great episode [1:30] Is your attraction pillar becoming a distraction? [4:25] Focus on your sphere of influence, attraction might just prevent you from growing. [8:30] Don’t forget your core [9:45] Do not put attraction above sphere or chase. You will starve. [12:30] An excel spreadsheet may just be your most powerful tool [14:00] Less than 50% of your sphere will be sharing your content online [16:00] Your sphere of influence needs to be invested in [17:35] Do you want to be the only agent with the mic?

In the real estate industry, networking is the lifeblood for your business. If you are not a natural networker, this just might be the episode that you need to hear! If networking comes easy to you, this episode will also set you up for success! I have learned that networking is not just about the people you meet, but also about how much value you can bring to a conversation. I previously hated networking For a long time, I hated networking. I always thought real estate networking was just about how many people you can meet. I didn’t always want to talk to people, the ones I did talk to did not always turn into business, one and on...I read a quote on LinkedIn from Oleg Vishnepolsky that said “networking is not just how many people we meet, its how many people we help, recommend, and introduce to others.” I love this perspective, andI think this is a much better approach to networking for business. Use a scheduler link Networking does not have to be a game of back and forth, coordinating schedules and indecisiveness about what coffee shop to meet in. If you are trying to network more, I highly recommend using a scheduler app like youcanbook.me or calendly (there are others, just google scheduler apps). These apps make it easy to set your appointment schedule, gather name and contact information, and choose a meeting place. I use youcanbook.me to get those ever-important face to face conversations. Once a person selects an available time, it automatically gets added to my calendar, and sets a notification! Become a walking rolodex I know a rolodex is a little outdated, but It still denotes having all of your contacts in one spot, so i’ll reference it! I think Oleg Vishnepolsky is right when he said “networking is not just how many people we meet, its how many people we help, recommend, and introduce to others.” With that in mind, how can you leverage your list of brokers, roofers, plumbers, contractors, cleaners, and painters to help you network better? Share them. In my newsletter and on my LinkedIn, I advertise that I have an amazing list of referral partners. Anytime someone on my list refers me, I ask them if I can publically thank them on LinkedIn. I take a selfie, write a thank you note, and mention them in the description or comments. This actually drives more referrals, because the people on my list know that they are appreciated! Create your top 25 list Here’s what I would recommend...go through your list and create a “top 25” list. Once you have that established, reach out to them once a month (I am starting to do this on LinkedIn) to share knowledge and pass referrals. If you are an influencer in your community, your referrals are powerful!

So many of you real estate agents are grinding and hustling all the time, but you are not taking care of your own minds. You are plagued with worry and stress, and your families, peace of mind and quality of life are suffering as a result. The truth is, it doesn’t have to stay this way. There has already been provisions made for your peace of mind, but it requires one simple action on your part. Fear is the root on anxiety So many agents I know are caught up in the fear of what they do NOT have, the money they are NOT making, on and on. They are riddled with thoughts that distract them, they drink way to much alcohol, and worry all the time. This worry then leads to a lack of action, which only compounds the problem. Fear is like paddling upriver in a canoe, but dragging an anchor behind you the whole way. It makes it tough to move. Can you relate? What can you do? You have to authority to command the fear to leave Just because you are very familiar with fear does not mean that fear has authority over you. In fact, it’s the opposite. You have the authority to command fear to leave. It doesn’t matter if you are a person of faith or not, you still have that authority. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Are relationships really the key to success in real estate? Many realtors and coaches believe we want results right now, so they teach techniques that will generate as much business as possible in a short amount of time. The one area they tend to overlook is building relationships with people. It takes time to build trust, so that does not fit into the “right now” scenario. The truth is, the most successful agents will tell you that 80% of their business comes from their sphere of influence. THAT is why relationships are the most important thing you can do to build a successful business. We are halfway through the first boot camp, and seeing amazing results! Three weeks ago, I launched the first Neil Mathweg boot camp, and I and seeing amazing results from those in attendance. We are talking about how to develop a clear plan, working within your strengths, and the three-pillar approach to growing a business. I am not stopping there though, there is plenty more inside!

Giving your real estate clients what they really want is a much better way to do business than just cold calling them to “stay in the loop.” This week on the OJ, we are going to take a closer look at what it means to provide value (even when you don’t have a house to sell yet), and why you NEED to be operating in a plan that is congruent with your strengths. If you are a new listener, or you have been a member of the OJ nation for a while, this episode delivers some powerful action steps you can start implementing today! Giving consumers what they want I know you have all used the lame follow-up call to stay connected to your clients. You know, the one where you call and say “ Hey, I just wanna stay in the loop.” You know it sounds lame, your clients know it’s lame, and there is little chance they will call you back. I wouldn’t call you back...YOU wouldn’t call you back. No value has been given, so they don’t have a reason to engage. Instead, I use this approach. “Hey it’s Neil, I just found out about a brand new listing that goes on the market Monday, and I think it’s a perfect match for what you are looking for,” I say it with excitement in my voice, and wait for them to call me back. Usually, the wait is not very long... What to do instead of cold calling? My friends Mark asked me this week, “is cold calling really the best way to generate leads?” Mark is hearing from several people that successful real estate agents just have to cold call clients. I disagree. Mark, what you need is a plan that is congruent to you and your strengths. Instead of cold calling as your chase pillar, I think that Open houses, Facebook Ads and Internet leads are a better way to get warm leads. Our goal is to use these platforms to generate search criteria, then you can go find what they are looking for. How can I provide value to consumers if I don’t have a house to offer? A few of you have asked, “what else can we do to provide value if we don’t have a house yet?” The short answer is to figure out what they need and provide that. Are your buyers pre-approved yet? If not, connect them to your mortgage guy. Since most realtors will do this, it’s nothing special. A better question to ask is if they are a first time home buyer? If they are, connect them to someone who offers first-time buyers home grants! That’s a rockstar move. Maybe they need to sublet an apartment before they buy a house...you can post on your Facebook followers that a client has an apartment available. This leverages your connections and offers value to the client. As you gain experience, you will start to collect a network of contractors, trash removal guys, estate sale companies, cleaners, even pet adoption agencies. At some point, a client of yours will need one of these services. This is how you can provide value before you hand them the keys to a new house. The cool kids The cool kids have learned that I provide a ton of free content for you to leverage, and it’s all found on my facebook page.

As an agent, you have probably been trained to “check in” with your clients every couple of weeks. Even if you don’t have a house or a buyer, you don’t want to lose them, right? So you cold call, leave a mumbled message about checking in, and ask them to call you back…[cue crickets]. After listening to this episode, that practice should be a thing of the past. Instead, give your clients exactly what they want! Buyers want properties, sellers want buyers Your buyers don’t owe you anything, regardless of how much you call them. You can spend a lot of time spinning your wheels, or you can provide value by giving your clients exactly what they want. Here is the secret formula: Buyers want houses, sellers want buyers. It’s not about calling them just for the sake of calling, it’s about finding them a house. If you lose focus on this, the best plan, strategy, and systems will just be a hindrance to you. Consumers don’t want you, they want a house If you are attending to cold leads, it’s important to remember that those consumers don’t want you (even though you are awesome), they want a house, plain and simple. You may have friends and family that declare they will only work with you, as a result of your sphere of influence. If you are working cold leads though, the best way to “warm them up” is to get their criteria, then go find a house that fits. If you know someone who is selling their house, you should abandon the dried out, weak approach of “Let me know if you want me to come over and tell you what’s it’s worth…” Instead, say “Tell me more about your house, I am working with 67 buyers in the area right now, and I think several of them would be interested.” That gets attention and moves the relationship forward. If you are distracted by the “67” number I just mentioned, message me, I will explain how that’s even possible! “I am already working with an agent” Clients have learned that saying “I am already working with an agent” is a great defense mechanism, and usually gets agents to leave them alone. Sometimes it’s true, they are working with an agent, but sometimes that “agent” is their wife’s brother’s cousin’s friend, and chances are, that guy is not providing value. If you match houses to their criteria, they will eventually want you, because no one else is giving them what they want. Now it’s time to go cultivate those old leads! Do you have leads that have been sitting around for a while? Do you feel the need to call them, just to make sure they are still planning to use you? It’s time to provide value! Remember, buyers want houses, sellers want buyers. Go crush it! Outline of this great episode [0:45] Thanks for helping me celebrate 3 years here on the OJ Podcast!

[3:00] Buyers want houses, sellers want buyers [6:15] It’s not about “just calling” them, it’s about finding them a house [8:00] The consumers don’t want you, they want a house [9:00] “I am working with 67 buyers right now” [11:00] Tell yourself “The consumer needs my help” [12:00] Consumers will want you because no one else is giving them what they want [13:15] “I am already working with an agent” [14:30] Cultivate old leads with new properties [17:30] We are seeing great results in the 1-1 coaching program!

Today, the Onion Juice Podcast turns three years old! Episode 156...wow! Thanks to all of you who have made the OJ a regular part of your week, that means the world to me! Over the past three years, I have talked about a lot of different subjects, featured a lot of guests, and recorded so many fun moments. Today, I open up the juice bar for a few questions, and we go behind-the-scenes to talk about how I started the OJ, what the production looks like, and how I manage work, life, family, social media and the I Love Madison Show, all while still selling real estate! Juice Bar: How do I manage the thought that I can't start a youtube channel because a competitor is doing the same thing in my area Nell, thanks for this question! You are looking at another real estate agent in your area who is (successfully) using YouTube to market his business, and that has convinced you that there is no more room in that space. First, I would encourage you to come up with a clear vision, then work inside that vision! After that, launch your channel! Pretend like that other agent does not even exist. Don’t watch his videos, they may just discourage you. The reality is, that agent does not have complete domination in your market. Focus on your voice and your brand, produce searchable content, and you will attract clients that want to work with you! There are a few OJ episodes you can listen to where I talk about YouTube best practices, check out the resources section for the links! Juice Bar: What digital media provides the most ROI? Some of you have asked, what social media platform provides the best RIO? I would say, it depends on where your sphere of influence is. For 75% of you, Facebook advertising is a great place to start. This is also the most trackable, as you will be able to tell exactly how much you spent for each lead you generated. In my coaching program, I walk you through exactly what campaigns I use on Facebook, so if that is an area you want to grow in, reach out! As many of you know, I am also a huge fan of LinkedIn. The other 25% of my clients come as a result of the relationships I have built on LinkedIn. I didn’t leave any room for Instagram, and there is a reason for that... Behind-the-Scenes of the Onion Juice Podcast Three years ago, some friends and I sat down to brainstorm ideas for a real estate podcast...The Onion Juice is the result of that conversation! When I first started, I was recording in my basement, with one mic and GarageBand. I would do all of the editing and production myself and hoped that the content I was producing was useful. After about 30 episodes, I purchased a better set of gear and set up a recording studio at the office. What used to take me all weekend to produce an episode now takes about 90 minutes...I plan my content the day before (sometimes), then hit record at 2:00 pm every Thursday like clockwork! After that, I send the audio to Podcast Fast Track, and those guys edit and post the finished product to my website! The first trinket takes the longest Several of you have asked “Neil, how do you manage everything, and still have time to sell real estate?” By everything, they mean The Onion Juice Podcast, the I Love Madison Show, selling houses, being a dad of three and a husband, and leading my team. The short answer is delegation. I have the most amazing team of people, from my two buyers agents, a part-time admin, my co-host Caleb Jahr (I Love Madison), and the Podcast Fast Track Team. I also work within a system. Everything I do has a system. The reality is, when I was first building these systems, they took a lot of time. The first trinket always does, but after you have used the system several times, you will find it gets easier and faster! Outline of this great episode [1:00] The podcast is three years old today!

Every real estate agent wants to see the snowball effect in their business, but are you snowballing in a positive direction? Often, negativity and doubt can build up, causing your momentum to shift in a negative direction. Sometimes, that negativity can come from a spouse...Today on the Onion Juice, I share how a clear vision is key, but inviting your spouse into that vision is crucial. I just launched the Neil Mathweg Coaching Facebook page! I am stoked to announce that the Neil Mathweg Coaching Facebook page is live! You can go to neilmathwegcoaching.com to find the link to the group. Once you are in, there is a free email template I created for writing offers. The year I created this, I had no assistant or support team, yet I was able to do over 90 real estate transactions! This is STILL the system I use, and now it’s available to all of you! You have to have a clear plan, then invite your spouse into the vision Momentum can be a fun thing unless you are moving in the wrong direction! One of the biggest causes of negative momentum that I have seen in the business is doubt and negative things you hear, then start to believe. Sometimes, this negativity starts with your spouse. Let me be clear before you run out and yell “I told you so...” If your spouse does believe in and support your work as a real estate agent, it’s probably because you have not invited them into the vision. Breaking you down to break you through I understand the pressure that can come from a spouse who does not understand what it takes to be a successful real estate agent. I understand because I lived it. I had not invited my wife into the vision I had created for my company, so it often looked like I was not doing anything meaningful. Your sphere of influence, the chase, and the attraction pillar are all necessary tactics, but it can be hard to explain to your spouse if they have no idea the value of each. Have you ever experienced this? Hosting an open house sounds like forward momentum (as long as it works), but what about creating a Vlog or producing videos? The truth is, real estate can be all consuming, and dangerous for a marriage. The best way to thrive in both is to develop a clear vision, then invite your spouse into that vision. The boot camp training program launches at the end of September! At the end of September, I am officially launching the Neil Mathweg Coaching Boot Camps! Part of the training will include what I mentioned above...working according to a clear vision, and inviting your spouse into that vision. Each boot camp will live online training that will last six weeks long, with two hours of training each week!

You might be doing all of the right things to generate new real estate leads...you have a clear plan, you are staying consistent, you are pounding the streets, making calls and sending emails. You have worked hard to sow the seeds. Now, the harvest is ready; the leads are waiting, people are lined up to buy or sell a house, but you are sleeping through the harvest... Harvesting the fruit So many of you agents have worked hard to sow the seeds that will bring you new business, but what are you doing while you wait for those seeds to mature and turn into profitable fruit? More importantly, when that fruit is ready to be harvested, are you giving it your full attention, or are you sleeping through the harvest? As agents, it’s easy to fall prey to the idea that we post a few ads or send an email, then just sit back and wait for something to happen. We get lazy, complacent, we make excuses, then wonder why we are not seeing more growth, more profit, etc... Are you working in excellence? I know there are areas in your life and business where you are not doing all that you can do, you are not working in excellence. How do I know this? Because there are areas in MY life where I am taking the same approach. It’s not just a real estate thing, it’s a human thing. Often, we rest when we could be sowing seeds. Just because you sent an email or posted a new ad on facebook does not mean you are done. Ask yourself, what do you want your “harvest” to look like? What do you need it to look like to see your life vision realized? Whatever picture you have in your head, you have to sow seeds accordingly and harvest accordingly. Stop Speaking negativity over yourself and your business Many of you are limiting your success by the words you speak. “Things slow down in the fall,” “we sell fewer houses this time of year…” Sound familiar? These statements give you an excuse to “sleep through the harvest,” so to speak. They normalize a negative mindset in which you have no control of the outcome. In reality, you have the knowledge, experience, and authority to operate in success and excellence. The harvest season operates on YOUR schedule! If you are struggling with this, the best way I have found to combat the fear and the doubt is to cultivate a lifestyle of gratefulness! The Neil Mathweg Coaching Program I just launched the Neil Mathweg Coaching Program Facebook page, and would love to see you guys on there! Once you are in the group, look for the “Offer to Purchase” template I pinned to the top of the page. This is the exact template I use when I send an offer. My whole team uses it, and now, for the first time, it’s available to all of you OJ listeners! I will also be sharing more information about the boot camp launch shortly!

Juicers, today we are going to take a hard look at the areas of your life and business that have been affected by fear, and how you can find the courage to move forward. I have listened to the thought “this might not work” over and over, I’ve struggled with days were no deals closed, the effort far outweighed the results, and the expenses were more than the income. Some of you are living this life right now, and it’s crushing your spirit and killing your joy. When the last of your courage is spent and you want to toss in the towel, what can you do? Join me for this hard-hitting, honest conversation...I think you will find it helpful. How do we find the courage to keep going when we want to give up? This last week, I have been resting on courage. The word has come up in several conversations and emails. The question that has been on my mind is this: How do we find the courage to keep going when we want to give up? Seth Godin wrote “At some level, "this might not work" is at the heart of all important projects, of everything new and worth doing. And it can paralyze us into inaction, into watering down our art and into failing to ship.” So, how do we find the courage to overcome this? We borrow it. Borrowing Courage If fear is paralyzing you from moving forward, I want to offer a couple of solutions. The first is the idea of borrowing courage. There have been so many moments when I did not think being an agent was going to work out. I was stressed, angry, desperate, you name it...and yet, in a moment of grace, there has always been someone to pull me aside to encourage me and tell me I had what it takes, to let me borrow some of their courage until I could find my own. I eventually did, and now it is available if you need it. If you are listening to this episode, and you need to borrow courage, please reach out to me! Focus on the vision, not your needs I have talked about the concept this on previous episodes, but I feel this is a great time to mention it again. If you are living according to your needs, you will always be stressed and always scrambling to meet those needs. That is no way to live. I encourage you to live according to a vision. For me, I have to remember, especially on “bad realtor days,” that my clients or deals are not my sources of provision. My faith reminds me to look to God, the true source of my provision. I never want to forget how I am blessed and taken care of, and that is, in part, the vision I live my life by. Do you have the courage to ask for help? Simon Sinek says “To overcome our challenges, all that is required is the courage to ask for help.” I know that for many agents, this is the hardest thing to do. We are expected to know everything, especially if you have been an agent for more than a few years. This last year, I have made a habit of asking questions, and it has been an empowering experience! I have been a real estate agent for seventeen years, and there are still situations that arise that I am not sure how to handle. The idea of “fake it till you make it” is terrible advice...all it really takes is the courage to ask for help.

Juicers, It is time to crush fear. It’s time to pursue the success you talk about, but are afraid to actually achieve. It’s time to recognize your enemy, call him out, then move past all of the doubt and start living the full life you were designed for. You can no longer afford to put your dreams and goals on hold. The world needs your creativity, leadership, business ideas and influence now more than ever. Fear is the only thing holding you back... The fear of success Many of you agents are saying “we want to crush it” or “I’m ready to take my business to the next level,” but in reality, you are afraid of what would happen if you actually reached that level of success. Maybe you worked a deal, but it took all of your attention and time, and you are afraid if you have more deals, you won’t be able to handle it all. You might be thinking “even if I got that deal, I wouldn’t know what to say…” You see, fear has an excuse for everything. It will tell you that you are not smart enough, organized enough, skilled enough, influential enough, or worthy of the success you are pursuing. This stops today. Today, we collectively declare that the enemy has no power over our success, that fear is a liar! Get Angry! You have an enemy that does not want you to succeed! That enemy only has power as long as you let fear run your life. That enemy wants to steal, kill and destroy everything that you are working on, and he uses fear to do it! To overcome that, it requires to get angry at the enemy (not at each other, mind you), call him out and strip him of his power! If that sounds like I’m preaching, good! You know best where fear has been given free reign in your life or business. Maybe it’s hiring a coach, or hitting a sales goal. As you eliminate fear, your confidence grows, and your way of thinking starts to shift. I delayed a dream for nine months because I was afraid When I started the I Love Madison show, I had a goal of connecting trailing spouses, business leaders and members of the community. For nine months, I planned an I Love Madison meetup to help accomplish that goal. Did it actually take nine months to plan? No. It took 15 minutes, and one Instagram message, but I was afraid it wouldn't be perfect. After stressing over all the details, I finally hosted the event, and it was awesome! All of the people who attended said the format (no agenda) was exactly what they needed. I met some local influencers and connectors, a team member of mine was blessed with some new business for his media company, and 25 or so members of the Madison community connected. Imagine the blessings that would have been missed if I was still operating in fear. When you eliminate fear, often those around you are blessed as a result. If you don’t eliminate fear, you might be indirectly causing those closest to you to suffer. Coaching Bootcamp Fear is a liar. Got it? Let’s switch gears for a moment… I have been building a program designed for real estate agents who want to learn and launch. Unlike the roundbox coaching program that I have been using, this new coaching program will be a 6-week boot camp-style program designed to teach you, encourage and launch you! I will be launching this program in September and will be providing more information in the coming weeks. The format will be live online classes, with one hour of instruction, followed by one hour of Q&A. I will also be offering 1-1 coaching and group coaching sessions. Stay tuned, I will provide you with more details soon! Outline of this great episode [1:15] Fear is a liar!

It is a little bit crazy when I think about the fact that I have been recording for the OJ podcast for nearly three years! Episode 156 will officially be the three-year mark, but I wanted to use this episode (150) to share a few of the life lessons that I have learned recently! I have been learning some amazing things about mindset, so I hope you will find these things as inspirational and life-changing as I have! Thanks for listening, you can expect more ear-guzzling awesomeness in the future! 64 Gifts Recently, my wife and I attended the Escape Adulthood Summit, hosted by Jason Kotecki from Escape Adulthood. Jason’s mission is to annihilate Adultitis and help people create better lives and businesses. During the summit, Jason brought up the idea of the Crayola box crayon box that had 64 different colors (yes, the one with the crayon sharpener!). If you had that box as a kid, you were considered super cool! Instead of crayons, Jason asked each person in attendance to write down 64 gifts or talents that we had. The skills could be simple, usually small talents we take for granted. After writing down a list of 64 of my talents or skills, I have to say I felt pretty good! This was a powerful reminder to me, and I think it could be for you as well! I wanna know, what 64 things are you good at? You can’t fill a moving cup! You have heard the phrase “I need to fill my cup.” Many of you realize that you are all poured out, and you need to recharge, but you don’t slow down long enough to let that happen. If you need to fill your cup, make sure you are finding the time to rest. After all, you can’t fill a moving cup! I’m telling for a friend I think people need to share more inspiring stories of kindness, but the problem is, it’s hard to do something kind for another person, then tell the story. It feels like bragging, right? Sure. That doesn’t change the fact that we need to spread more kindness. You know the phrase “I’m asking for a friend,” usually brought up when something is embarrassing? What if we started “telling for a friend” when someone does something kind? Make somebody’s day by being kind to them, or inspire new acts of kindness by “telling for a friend.” Your 99-year old self wrote you a letter Have you ever written yourself a letter? I recently participated in an exercise where I wrote to myself from the perspective of my 99-year old self! What would that guy say? What would he regret not doing? For me, the 99-year old talked about consistency with my current projects and encouraged me to stay the course. He’s a wise guy! I am learning to heed his advice! If you want the same experience, write me a letter (to yourself), and mail it to me, and after six months, I will print it out and send it to you! Fear is a liar Here is a simple truth: Fear is a liar. I used to struggle with anxiety and fear. It riddled my life to the point where I was taking medication to try and fix it, to no avail. I did not see a change in my anxiety until a friend taught me to take authority of that fear, and command it to leave! Fear comes from the enemy, but I have the authority, as do you, to rise above that fear and realize it is just a clever lie. What fears are riddling your life and stealing your joy? You don’t have to settle...I didn’t, and my life is absolutely better as a result! If you want to hear more of my story, I would love to share, and inspire you on towards a life without fear!

The juice bar is open, which means it’s time for all of your real estate questions! Today I want to address how you stay in the flow with your buyers and sellers, how you can reverse engineer information to help you better serve your customers, and how to avoid the shiny object syndrome, as it relates to open houses! If you find the juice bar helpful, there are several previous episodes you can go back to and ear-guzzle! How do you stay in the flow with people if you are no good on the phone? As a real estate agent, your goal is not to be in the flow with people, but in the flow with buyers and sellers. The best way to do this is to get really good at finding their search criteria. If you are in an open house talking to buyers, ask them about THAT property, what they like, what they don’t like, what they think of the neighborhood, etc. This will give you an idea of what they are actually looking for. You can then take this information and find their perfect property, then call them to say you have information that they may be interested in. That’s how you stay in the “flow.” You can also use this technique to reverse engineer a sale, by finding sellers who have a property that may fit a buyer. Simply put, the “flow” is just a matchmaking game. The last couple of weeks, the open houses have been really slow, do you have other ideas? Open houses have been around as long as the realtor, and I don’t think they are going anywhere. What may be happening here is you have fallen prey to the shiny object syndrome, just because things have been slow. If you only have a few people show up to your open house, take advantage of the fact that you can go deep with each of them (a luxury you don’t have when there are 20-30 people present), and get to know their needs better. There may be a dip, but don’t get caught up in the flow pattern. If you have been at the real estate game for a while, you may have enough bandwidth to knock on doors before and after, with both information about how fast the house sold, and any leftover buyers you may have. What does “know your market” look like? “Knowing your market” really just means knowing the flow of the buyers and sellers. There are ways you can get a read on the market, or “the beat,” including asking senior agents in your company how busy they are and asking lending agents how many applications they have received. This will give you an idea where the market is at, and what you need to do to prepare. In the end, it’s all about knowing where to find what the buyers are looking for. If you can do that consistently, you will be successful! Neil Mathweg Coaching coming soon! If you are looking for real estate coaching, I am looking for students! In the very near future, I will be launching Neil Mathweg Coaching (I still have Roundbox) a 6-week, boot camp style coaching program for agents. Stay tuned, you guys will hear about it first!

Neil Mathweg, the Host of the Onion Juice Podcast, makes his very first appearance on the show today, and DAMN is it packed full of value, tactics, and insight. I originally brought Neil on to talk about his experience starting from scratch as a Realtor (he recently stepped down as the CEO of his local Realty Executives brokerage to be a full-time Realtor again) and he certainly delivered on that. But in true Massive Agent fashion, The Squirrel made yet another appearance and led us to talk about the open house system he uses to get new buyer clients AND sell the listing, what to look forward to when the market correction comes, how to find sponsors for your show, and more. This show is jam packed with valuable tactics right to the very end. If you're a new real estate agent, this show will be a huge help in jumpstarting your career. If you've recently moved to a new market, and are starting from scratch in a new place where you don't know anyone... this show will also be hugely helpful. You'll almost certainly walk away from this show with a new, actionable idea or tactic that you can go implement immediately. Enjoy!

I have spent several episodes talking about the power of video content, how to produce the best real estate videos, and what platforms to share those videos on. Are they social videos? Are they searchable? Do they engage your audience and empower them with new information? These are all questions you have heard me ask. Today, I will encourage you to NOT cross-promote your content on every channel, and walk you through exactly what kinds of content you should be creating for Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn! Don’t cross-promote your content If you are posting the same real estate video to all of your channels (Facebook, Youtube, LinkedIn, other), you are taking a lazy approach to your content, and actually hurting your brand. There are rules you have to follow for each platform, or your content (and your brand) will sink into oblivion, never to surface again. Instead of cross-promoting your content, tailor it to fit each platform. If you are not sure how to produce the best real estate videos for each channel, stay tuned, I cover that next! The best real estate videos for YouTube You have heard me say it before, YouTube is a search engine. That means that people are looking for specific, helpful content. Here are a few examples of the kinds of videos and titles you can produce for YouTube: Neighborhood videos in a Vlog style (walk around, engage people and give information that relates to that area). As far as titles are concerned, here are a few examples i have used: “Why don’t I sell my house for sale by owner,” “10 reasons to move to madison (your city),” “housing market update,” “best tips for estate sale,” “what is a short sale,” “how to avoid foreclosure,” “what to expect at an inspection,” “moving tips,” “should I stage my home,”and “tips for picking the best offer in multiple-offer situations.” Work on your titles and descriptions, and remember...don’t post these videos to Facebook, just YouTube. Create Facebook videos that actually engage your audience Facebook thrives on social content, so that is what you should be producing to create engagement. The Vlog format works well on this platform (similar to YouTube, but not a carbon copy). One great way to produce videos is to use Facebook Live when you are at events or hosting an open house. The critical element of every facebook video must have is a reason for your audience to engage. For example, when we were searching for the best burger in Madison for the I Love Madison Show, we live streamed and asked people to like and comment with their favorite burger places around the city. The engagement on those videos was very high! One great way to list a property is to shoot some drone footage, then link that video and a few high-quality videos back to the listing page on your website! Your LinkedIn videos should focus on one thing: building relationships The LinkedIn platform is all about creating relationships (notice the lack of cute cat videos...that’s intentional). When you are creating videos for LinkedIn, keep that in mind. There is no need to produce a video that only highlights your skill as a realtor...no one cares. Use something you have learned to educate and empower. You can sprinkle in short success moments as an agent in creative ways, ie. “I just had a client that bought in this area and this is why” or “this event is in this area and my clients are loving it.” Don’t worry about always bringing it back to real estate. Market yourself as a business person who has learned things, and offer no-strings-attached content.

Quentin Allums aka “Q” joins me today to share 10 tips you can use to start creating content on LinkedIn! Q is the CEO of ie.eg, a storytelling company, and the founder of the Misfits community. He is also the reason I am so excited about LinkedIn, and the possibility it holds for content creators and influencers! Listen to this episode, it could be the launch pad you need to start influencing on LinkedIn! Q established his brand around storytelling After a failed startup, Q decided to post a video on LinkedIn every day. For the next 500 days, Q talked about his life, his failed startup and a collection of stories. At first, no one seemed to be watching. Then one of his videos hit 30,000 views, and he realized that people were paying attention. Now he has amassed more than 3 million views on the platform and travels the world as a speaker and influencer, and his company helps other entrepreneurs and companies create effective content on LinkedIn. Now is the time to create content Q’s advice to agents or other people who want to get started on LinkedIn is this: Now is the time to create content! There are more than 10 million users on LinkedIn (and growing), but less than 1% of them are creating content. He compares it to Facebook in 2011-2012, or YouTube in 2006. For real estate agents specifically, he recommends talking about broad subjects, as they will appeal to a greater audience. If you need some ideas on how to do this, check out his profile! #JustQ It can be hard to see when people share your content on LinkedIn, so Q recommends creating a unique hashtag for your brand. This will help you track where your content goes, who is sharing it, etc. For him, he wanted people to see his content, but also realize that he’s just a normal guy producing content. #JustQ on LinkedIn will display a whole library of his posts, reposts, and videos. It also helps tell his story...THAT is a great content strategy! Q shares 10 LinkedIn tips to get you started #1: Just start - If only 1% of all LinkedIn users are producing content, it means your material will be seen more. #2: Use a great profile photo - Make sure people can see your face. This is your first impression, make it count! #3: Use a great cover photo - If you live in Milwaukee and are trying to do business there, your cover photo should somehow relate to that place or subject. #4: Use Video - video plays on all the senses, and it’s the best way for people to get to know you in the least amount of time. #5: Put your ear to the ground - see what’s working, watch what other people are producing, and always look for ways to improve #6: Message people - the core of LinkedIn is relationship building. #7: Create a hashtag - #JustQ is the perfect example. It’s trackable and it tells part of his story. #8: Go to events - At some point, the relationships you are building must go beyond the screen. Get out and connect with people, start a LinkedIn local, etc. #9: Put Calls to Action (CTAs) in your profile - Once people have connected with you, tell them why that connection is so important to you, or what you want them to do. #10: Optimize your profile - Make sure that your descriptions, bio, and content clearly reflect who you are and what you are trying to do.

Hey Juicers, let’s dive into the Instagram TV App! The IGTV app, which will work as a button inside Instagram and as a standalone app, will be displayed full-screen and vertically and won’t be limited by Instagram’s current one-minute length. The app, which is meant to model a traditional TV, will start streaming videos uploaded by one’s followers as soon as it is opened by the user. On this onion juice episode, I will share a few ideas you can use to start producing content on IGTV! So what is IGTV? Normal Instagram videos are limited to 1 minute of content, but with the IGTV feature, videos now can be up to an hour long! This is a good and bad thing...most people will not sit and watch you for an hour, but it does give you the freedom to do a full walk-through or document an event, which is super cool! Go Vertical! IGTV will only allow you to post in vertical format, so don’t plan on flipping your phone horizontal to get a wide shot...Instagram will crop the edges! This will take some getting used to, especially if you are already posting on YouTube. If you are editing your videos in a secondary program, such as Final Cut Pro, you will have to reformat how the video gets exported to make sure it maintains the vertical layout! Just look at it this way, you have a chance to practice a new skill and learn something new! Entertain and engage Remember, people are not jumping on Insta to search for how-tos, or “10 tips,” so remember to keep your content entertaining and engaging. This is still a social channel, so creative, succinct content will yield the best results! Go behind-the-scenes The length of the videos will throw some people off, as they will try to include a lot more content. Just remember, respect the platform! Here are a few ideas that may work really well on the new IGTV format! Neighborhood documentaries (plan these ahead of time) may be one great option, as you have enough time to capture detail and point out interesting things. The same concept applies to event documentaries, like open houses. Try going behind-the-scenes...if you are producing an event (like a podcast), set up your phone and record the production side of things...it’s a great way to engage your followers! Outline of this great episode [0:45] Today we will talk about IGTV! [3:45] Searchable channels allow for a larger platform, which Instagram may never do. [4:30] This is still social content [5:00] Vertical format only! [8:00] Ideas you can use to start producing content on Instagram TV [12:15] This may not be for everyone - beware the shiny object!
