Send us a textWelcome back to our New Home Value series. So far, Rick has covered why buyers are choosing new construction, how agents bring value to the process, and how to generate more leads through new home communities. But in Part 4, we're digging into something that separates the occasional sale from a thriving career: how to build a long-term, sustainable new-home sales business.The truth is, success in this space comes down to two key ingredients: relationships and consistency.Strong relationships with builder reps and developers are the backbone of your credibility.

I'll share the exact weekly, monthly, and annual action items you need to stay relevant and visible in the new-home market.

In the interview, Reffkin highlighted a significant shift in the housing market: the price gap between new construction homes and existing homes has narrowed dramatically.

This is a notable change from previous years, where new builds typically commanded a much higher premium.This development underscores the increasing competitiveness of new construction in the current market.

Auckland University Public Health Professor Chris Bullen says he doesn't believe the data is that high, but rather sitting somewhere between five and 10 percent. He says selling online is an issue, however. "They're using these platforms now to advertise quite brazenly products, but they're tricky because they keep changing what they're calling them."

Can franchise ownership really offer freedom, flexibility, and wealth, or is that just a myth? In this solo episode, Erik Van Horn answers the questions franchisees are asking most, including how and when to incentivize managers, what semi-absentee ownership really looks like, and how to structure profit-sharing or equity without costly mistakes.  He discusses the pros and pitfalls of buying resale franchises and offers candid advice for franchisees and emerging franchisors on building leadership, managing expectations, and scaling smartly. Whether you're launching your first location or acquiring your tenth, Erik's insights will help you avoid common traps and build long-term success.   “You, as a franchisee, take responsibility for the things that aren't going well. Can you blame your franchisor for some of it? Absolutely! Is it going to help? Probably not. That's why I say take responsibility. Make the changes." ~ Erik Van Horn   In This Episode: - Benefits of semi-absentee ownership in balancing time - Offering business ownership to motivate franchise managers - Hiring strong leaders and fostering a teachable culture - Profit sharing vs. equity: which works better? - Franchisor vs. franchisee: key differences in roles - Investing in a resale franchise: time expectation for ROI - Why brands should embrace AI and technology  - Helpful advice for aspiring franchise owners   Resources:

The Advisory Board Podcast –The Exit Strategy Playbook with Pete BaldineWelcome back to another episode of The Advisory Board Podcast! As always, we bring in experts from the franchise community to provide real, actionable advice that helps you make meaningful changes in your franchise system. We're all about helping your units succeed today while also setting you up for a successful exit strategy down the road.This episode is proudly sponsored by ClientTether—a game-changer in franchise sales automation and customer engagement. Big thanks to them for supporting the show and helping franchise owners grow their businesses effectively!The Gray Tsunami: Franchising's Aging DemographicsIf you were with us at the Let's Grow event, you heard us buzzing about a big challenge in the industry—the Gray Tsunami. Every day, 1.2 million people in the U.S. turn 65, and about 35-40% of franchise owners fall into the Boomer category. This presents a huge opportunity—and challenge—for franchise systems as many longtime owners look to retire.That's why we brought in Pete Baldine, President of Moran Family of Brands, which operates Mr. Transmission, Milex Complete Auto Care, Turbo Tint, and Alta Mere Automotive Outfitters. Pete has spent decades in franchising, building proactive systems to help franchisees successfully transition out of their businesses.Longevity & The Exit DilemmaAt Moran Family of Brands, 33% of franchisees have been in the system for 20+ years, and 16% for 30+ years. While that longevity is impressive, it raises a crucial question: How do we help these owners exit successfully without shrinking the system?Pete shares how his team proactively plans for franchisee exits—instead of leaving owners to figure it out alone. By implementing a strong resale program, Moran helps franchisees exit on their terms, ensuring they maximize their equity and transition to the right buyer.Why Franchisors Need an Exit StrategyToo often, franchisors focus solely on new franchise sales, neglecting end-of-cycle support for existing owners. But failing to help franchisees exit properly can result in units closing, lost brand equity, and declining system strength. Pete's solution?Start the conversation early – Moran tracks franchisee renewal dates a year in advance and starts discussing exit strategies well before expiration.Understand valuations – Educating franchisees on how EBITDA multiples affect their business's worth and ensuring their P&Ls are in order well before selling.Facilitate strong buyer matches – Using tools like the SpotOn Profile from Rebecca Monet's Zoracle Profiles, Moran ensures incoming franchisees are aligned with the system's top performers.Assist in finding buyers – Rather than forcing franchisees to find their own buyers, Moran actively supports the process, preventing deals from falling through.What Happens If You Don't Plan?Franchisors who ignore exit strategies risk:Aging franchisees who hold onto territories but stop growing their businesses.Poor resale processes that lead to franchisees closing shop instead of selling.System-wide stagnation, as untapped markets sit underutilized.Pete shares a real-life win: A longtime Moran franchisee, hesitant to sell, was guided through the resale process and handed off his store to a new owner. The result? The new franchisee brought fresh energy, increased revenue by 30%, and is now looking to buy two more locations.Building the Culture of Exit PlanningAt Moran, exit strategy isn't an afterthought—it's discussed in Discovery Day! Franchisees enter the system knowing there's a roadmap for both success and exit. This gives them confidence that when the time comes, they have the franchisor's full support.Final TakeawaysFranchise success isn't just about getting in—it's about getting out the right way. If you're a franchisor, take a page from Moran's playbook and:Integrate exit planning early in the franchise lifecycle.Actively assist franchisees with valuations, buyer matchmaking, and financing strategies.Build a culture where successful exits are just as celebrated as successful launches.A huge thank you to Pete Baldine for sharing his wisdom!

Shoot us a Text.The auto industry breathed a sigh of relief yesterday as it was announced that they will be exempt from the 25% tariffs on Mexican and Canadian goods. Plus, we're looking at the cars that hold their value the best, and Google's push towards AI search.Show Notes with links:The auto industry is temporarily relieved by a one-month exemption from the 25% tariffs on vehicles covered by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). President Trump granted the reprieve following requests from Ford, GM, and Stellantis, with the ultimate goal of shifting production to the U.S.The automotive provisions of the USMCA require that 75% of a vehicle's components be made in North America (up from 62.5% under NAFTA) to qualify for zero tariffs, and mandate that 40-45% of auto parts be made by workers earning at least $16 per hour, aiming to boost North American production and labor standards.Most automotive manufacturers comply with USMCA standards and The American Automotive Policy Council and automakers expressed gratitude for the temporary exemption.Suppliers remain concerned about long-term impacts, despite positive signs for USMCA-compliant parts.Dealers and industry experts view the exemption as part of a broader strategy to encourage domestic manufacturing, but uncertainty persists.“The damage has already been done. For an industry that operates in three- to five-year product cycles, this level of day-to-day uncertainty is debilitating.” — Glenn Stevens, Executive Director of MichAuto.Last week we covered the cars with the most depreciation, and now, Kelley Blue Book has announced its annual Best Resale Value Awards, highlighting the top performers of 2025.The top 10 vehicles are projected to retain an average of 58% of their original MSRP, compared to the market average of 44.6%.Toyota dominates the list, securing four of the top ten spots, including the #1 2025 Toyota Tacoma with a projected 64.1% resale value.The full top 10 list includes the 2025 Toyota GR Supra (53.7%), 2025 Porsche 911 (53.8%), 2025 Toyota RAV4 (53.9%), 2025 Honda CR-V (54.4%), 2025 Mercedes-Benz G-Class (56.6%), 2025 Ford Bronco (57.0%), 2025 Toyota 4Runner (60.0%), 2025 Toyota Tundra (60.9%), 2025 Chevrolet Corvette (61.0%), and 2025 Toyota Tacoma (64.1%).Google is accelerating its AI integration into search with a new feature called AI Mode, adding a chatbot-like experience directly to the core of Google Search.AI Mode, currently in testing, is only available to Google One AI Premium subscribers and must be enabled in the Labs section of Search.The feature offers a search-centric chatbot experience, delivering AI-generated answers directly from Google's search index with supporting links throughout.AI Mode uses the Gemini 2.0 model, aiming to improve Google's ability to handle more advanced queries while providing real-time data and web interaction.While concerns remain about Google's shift away from traditional website linking, Stein asserts that AI Overviews anHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

Boat weight classes across your fleet can be assessed against members' weights. Timestamps 01:00 your boat fleet should match the needs of your group. Many masters group 'inherit' boats but for optimal club alignment match the boats with the membership needs. Assess the current fleet - look for the manufacturer's label - serial number, year of construction and athlete weight. Log these for your whole boat fleet. Different boat moulds accommodate the water displacement for heavier and lighter athletes. Variations can be built in by lowering the deck or the saxboards. When my club did the survey we added in a "state of repair" for each boat. Some are used more than others. And the frequency of boat use - we have some which are favourites and get used a lot more than others. 05:45 Athlete weight survey All members were asked anonymously what their weight is in kg and if they are men or women. We had fallen into the habit of calling boats "mens boats" or "womens boats". This was erroneous - we had men and women in three out of four weight categories. Masters do a lot of mixed rowing and so we need boats suitable for mixed and single gender users. 08:00 Do your boats mach your membership weights? We found a spread of needs across 4 ranges of boat weights. Remember crew weights are averaged to align with the boat. 4 Sizes of boat - Lightweight 60kg boats - Mid lightweight 70kg boats - Mid heavyweight 80kg boats - Heavyweight 90kg boats 48% of our members could fit into a lightweight boat; 60% of our membership can fit into a mid lightweight boat; 44% can fit a mid heavyweight boat; and 23% fit a heavyweight. Our club is skewed to female members and older females who are smaller in height and lower body weight. This affects the fund raising, boat purchase plan and the boat maintenance plan where club resources are focused. 10:30 Considerations for purchases The resale value of second hand boats is important to consider. This is not just about the boat's age and state of repair - it's who wants to buy this type of boat. Resale values for coxless quads is high in New Zealand due to a lack of supply. Few clubs choose to buy 60kg double sculls because lightweight rowing is being phased out of schools and international rowing. 12:00 Boat builders' weight ranges Boat builders can advise what size of boat they typically build. Size inflation has happened in boat weights - classified at one weight but will fit a bigger range of athlete weights than previously. It used to be +/- 5 kg and I believe it's larger than this now - maybe 10kg range. I believe that you want the oarlocks to sit half way up the pins for the average weight of the athletes when they sit in the boat with oars squared and buried at the finish. Too heavy athletes in a boat and you find insufficient freeboard to get the oars out at the finish or to row square blades. Too light athletes in a boat and you find you have to hold your handle higher up your chest in order to keep the oars buried at the finish and you cannot keep your wrists level with your elbows in the power phase. Gain an understanding of the number of years you use a boat before you replace it. Plan a replacement strategy so you can get the right range of boats for your needs. For example, we boat a lot of quads and now have a quad in three of the four weight ranges. Champagne tastes on a beer budget - we always want more equipment than we can afford to buy!
