Ed Lane led a focused training on motivating buyers during the slower December season, emphasizing the importance of creating urgency, addressing objections early, and offering unique incentives such as stronger negotiation opportunities and reduced competition. He highlighted the value of pre-approvals and off-market access as key differentiators for agents, and encouraged attendees to leverage educational buyer-presentation videos and his custom GPT tool for scripts. Ed also covered strategies for re-engaging silent buyers using patient, empathetic follow-ups and escalating communication touches. He noted that current market conditions make it a genuinely strong time to buy, with motivated sellers and potential equity upside. Ed closed by explaining his proven January 22nd relisting strategy for sellers who prefer to wait until after the New Year, ensuring listings capture peak post-holiday buyer activity.

Episode SummaryErin and Rachel hop on down to 1920's New Orleans, where Disney's first Black princess spends most of her time as a frog in the Louisiana bayou. The Princess and the Frog (2010) provided much needed representation, but leaves a lot to be desired in terms of its race, class, and gender politics. Episode BibliographyThe 82nd Academy Awards | 2010.

Rumours about America's role in the dismissal of Gough Whitlam have circulated for decades – but is there any truth to them? On this special episode of After America, we explore the state of the Australia-United States relationship under the Whitlam government, the machinations at the time around the renewal of Pine Gap, and the previously untold account of Dr Liz Cham, former executive assistant in the office of Prime Minister Whitlam, who recalls handing over a mystery letter to an American official just before the Dismissal.

Ed Lane, a 38-year real estate veteran from Seattle, led a focused training on why the holiday season can be one of the strongest times to sell. He emphasized that a seller's personal circumstances—not the calendar—should guide listing decisions, and he provided proven scripts to address common objections about selling in December. Ed shared that December consistently ranks as his third-busiest month for closings, due to the higher motivation and seriousness of holiday buyers. He also covered how to navigate holiday décor, tax advantages of year-end closings, and the strategic benefits of getting on the market before the January listing surge.

Ed outlined the three selling paths every seller should see—cash sale, as-is listing, and as-repaired listing—and stressed presenting all three with real numbers to position yourself as the trusted solution provider. He shared his Moving Concierge system, where sellers sign a listing agreement, the home gets a Matterport scan for accurate repair measurements, and contractors prepare a repair scope, timeline, and as-repaired valuation. Ed showcased multiple success stories where this approach dramatically increased sales prices and ROI, noting that he fronts the rehab costs, requires a minimum 40% return on improvements, and allows sellers to keep all profits. He closed by referencing helpful tools including his “Color Picture CMA Tour” video and his custom GPT at WhatWouldEdSay.com.

This week, we discuss and example of a life experience going directly into a story (5:30), how to address high panel counts for comic pages (14:15), using reference in drawing versus learning structure (25:50), and returning to an aging commission (38:50) before this week's topic: what to think about while writing and scripting (42:30).

Ed Lane led a “Scripting Friday” session focused on helping agents navigate holiday season real estate opportunities. He emphasized that the end of the year can be an ideal time for buyers, with motivated sellers, reduced competition, and favorable negotiating conditions. Ed encouraged agents to create urgency without pressure by highlighting benefits like potential tax deductions, flexible closing dates, and locking in current interest rates before the spring market surge. He also discussed smart negotiation tactics—advising agents to analyze each property individually, avoid lowball offers, and focus on crafting win-win terms. Ed reminded attendees that successful holiday deals come from education, empathy, and helping clients see both the emotional and financial advantages of acting now.

Ed led a session on preventing deals from falling apart during home inspections by preparing clients with clear expectations. He introduced the “minor, moderate, major” script to help buyers categorize inspection findings and stay focused on critical issues rather than getting overwhelmed. Ed emphasized discussing this before clients receive the inspection report to reframe their perspective and maintain confidence in the purchase. He also shared negotiation strategies using the same framework to prioritize repairs and prevent emotional decision-making. The discussion expanded to home warranties, vendor relationships, and California listing laws, with Ed advising agents to build trust through reliable contractors, pre-inspections, and compliance with state agreements.

How do you prepare before you hit record? Do you plan every detail, keep a loose outline, or just hit the red button and go? Today, we're sharing how we approach preparation and how those choices shape creativity, confidence, and the listener experience. We give tips on making a script sound natural, and why there's no single right way to plan a show. You'll also gain insights into time management and maintaining fresh ideas.

Get More Done Scripting Your Life Date: October 15, 2025 | Episode: 5204 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description What if the boring, scripted life you've been avoiding is exactly what gives you freedom? Scott tackles the biggest lie we tell ourselves - that structure kills spontaneity. Spoiler: it's the opposite. From planning spontaneous Saturdays with his wife to stacking back-to-back calls at 6:45 AM, he reveals why the most exciting lives are built on predictable routines. You're already a goal-seeking machine. Time to use it right. Featured Story Scott's wife isn't spontaneous. At all. If he wants a fun Saturday, he has to announce it in advance. "Honey, we're having a spontaneous Saturday." She needs to plan for it. It sounds wacky. He fights it every step of the way. But here's the thing - she's onto something. Her scripted approach means less stress and more control. Scott learned this the hard way after years of resisting structure. Now? He knows his Monday schedule two weeks out. When the dermatologist asks what time works, his answer is simple: "Anything. I know my Monday." Important Points Your eyes are goal-seeking machines that naturally take you wherever you point your attention, which is why billion-dollar companies fight for your focus every single day. Structure doesn't kill freedom - it creates it. The minute you script your life is the minute you control it instead of letting everyone else control it for you. Process beats outcome goals every time. Focusing on daily habits and systems keeps you moving forward even when the big goal feels impossible or hits a plateau. Memorable Quotes "The minute you get some structure in your life is the minute you get all the freedom you want." "You are a goal setting machine. Whatever direction you point your attention is where you're going to go." "When I do it for myself, for what I want to do, I'll stick to it all day long." Scott's Three-Step Approach Script your day in advance. Know what you're doing and when you're doing it so you can actually control your time instead of reacting to everyone else's agenda. Focus on the process, not just the end goal. Get excited about the daily habits that move you forward rather than obsessing over the finish line that's still months away. Be flexible on your terms. Structure doesn't mean rigid - it means you know what you're doing well enough to adjust when life happens without losing control completely.

Ed Lane led a Scripting Friday focused on holiday-season real estate strategies, clarifying that “holiday scripting” refers to handling listings and clients during the fourth quarter—not holiday parties. He noted that although live attendance was small, most agents watch the replays. Ed emphasized that agents should not mentally “check out” during Q4, as December has historically been one of his strongest production months. He encouraged agents to first understand a seller's urgency and motivation before giving advice and reminded everyone that many sellers must move regardless of the time of year. Ed also shared a high-performing strategy for January listings: putting homes on the market the third or fourth Thursday of January. He explained that many buyers begin searching immediately after New Year's, while inventory remains low, giving sellers an edge compared to spring when competition increases. His takeaway was clear—agents shouldn't discourage fourth-quarter listings, as timing is often outside the seller's control, and the season offers opportunities for both market share and strong results.

Ed Lane hosted Scripting Fridays, focusing on confident communication and effective dialogues, supported by his resource site whatwouldEdsay.com. He shared market insights, noting mortgage rates are trending downward ahead of the Fed's meeting and advising buyers to act quickly while sellers remain patient. Ed stressed staying politically neutral with clients, even when frustrated by policy decisions. He provided strategies for negotiating closing cost credits, including key questions to ask listing brokers and rapport-building techniques. For sellers, he recommended patience, possible price adjustments after 60 days, and relisting in January to reset days on market.

Ed led a mastermind on referral management, highlighting the importance of CRMs and classifying contacts into A, B, and C categories to identify top referral sources. He shared quick strategies for contacting databases, using memory joggers, and coaching contacts on how to refer effectively. Ed emphasized the need for a strong, memorable value proposition (“gold brick”) to stand out with clients and referral partners. He also discussed lead management, 17-touch client engagement methods, and incorporating charitable events for stronger connections. The session wrapped with guidance on handling buyers wanting to switch agents, stressing credibility, rapport, and broker consultation.

Ed hosted a special Labor Day edition of Scripting Fridays, centering the discussion on value propositions and the role of consistent follow-up in real estate deals. He described a value proposition as a “gold brick” — something so compelling that buyers or sellers can't resist meeting with you. Technical issues delayed his presentation software, but the group focused on comparing and practicing different approaches to scripting.

Transcript:Da: Der kom en gryende morgen i sensommeren, og solens stråler sneg sig stille ind gennem vinduet i kollegieværelset.En: There came a dawning morning in late summer, and the sun's rays quietly slipped in through the window of the kollegieværelse.Da: Høje stabler af bøger fyldte hylderne, og trægulvet knirkede let under Lars' fødder, mens han trådte varsomt hen til sit skrivebord.En: Tall stacks of books filled the shelves, and the wooden floor creaked slightly under Lars' feet as he trod carefully to his desk.Da: Der var lugten af friskbrygget kaffe i luften, et tegn på de mange sene nætter, han havde brugt på at forberede sig.En: The scent of freshly brewed coffee lingered in the air, a sign of the many late nights he had spent preparing.Da: Lars stod foran spejlet, justerede sine briller og funderede over sit ønske om at organisere rummet og opbygge en produktiv studieplan for det kommende semester.En: Lars stood in front of the mirror, adjusted his glasses, and pondered his desire to organize the room and build a productive study plan for the upcoming semester.Da: Tankerne virvlede omkring inden i ham som efterårets blade udenfor, der allerede var begyndt at skifte farve.En: His thoughts swirled inside him like the autumn leaves outside, which had already begun to change color.Da: Hans værelseskammerat, Johan, sad tilbagelænet i deres fælles lænestol, en bog liggende åbent på skødet, men blikket fast fokuseret på telefonens lysende skærm.En: His roommate, Johan, sat reclined in their shared armchair, a book lying open on his lap, but his eyes were firmly focused on the glowing screen of his phone.Da: Johan havde allerede inviteret Lars til en spontan tur til byen.En: Johan had already invited Lars on a spontaneous trip to the city.Da: Men Lars vidste, at han ikke kunne lade sig distrahere.En: But Lars knew he couldn't allow himself to be distracted.Da: Sofie, deres gode ven, kom på besøg med en varm, opmuntrende smil.En: Sofie, their good friend, visited with a warm, encouraging smile.Da: Selvom hun selv havde egne akademiske udfordringer, var hun altid klar til at lytte.En: Although she had her own academic challenges, she was always ready to listen.Da: Lars gik hen til hende med en bekymret mine.En: Lars approached her with a worried expression.Da: "Hvordan håndterer du alting, Sofie?"En: "How do you manage everything, Sofie?"Da: spurgte han og søgte råd.En: he asked, seeking advice.Da: "Jeg laver en stram tidsplan," svarede Sofie roligt.En: "I make a strict schedule," replied Sofie calmly.Da: "Og jeg tillader mig selv pauser.En: "And I allow myself breaks.Da: Du må finde en balance, Lars."En: You must find a balance, Lars."Da: Da Johan foreslog endnu en udflugt, mærkede Lars beslutningen gro i sig.En: When Johan suggested yet another outing, Lars felt the decision grow within him.Da: "Johan, jeg har brug for at tale med dig," sagde han fast og så sin værelseskammerat i øjnene.En: "Johan, I need to talk to you," he said firmly, looking his roommate in the eyes.Da: Der ventede en stilhed, før Johan brød den med et overrasket smil.En: There was a pause before Johan broke it with a surprised smile.Da: "Selvfølgelig, hvad er der på hjerte?"En: "Of course, what's on your mind?"Da: "Det er vigtigt for mig at fokusere på studierne i dette semester," forklarede Lars.En: "It's important for me to focus on my studies this semester," Lars explained.Da: "Det synes jeg ikke, jeg har været god nok til at kommunikere.En: "I don't think I've been good enough at communicating that.Da: Jeg har brug for lidt plads for at klare det."En: I need some space to manage it."Da: Johan nikkede langsomt.En: Johan nodded slowly.Da: "Jeg forstår det nu.En: "I understand now.Da: Jeg vil ikke stå i vejen for dig.En: I won't stand in your way.Da: Hvad hvis jeg hjælper dig i stedet?"En: How about I help you instead?"Da: Med den anerkendelse, tjente han fra Johan, lettede noget inde i Lars.En: With the acknowledgment he earned from Johan, something lifted inside Lars.Da: Ved middagstid satte de sig alle tre, Sofie hjalp med at skitsere en plan.En: By midday, all three sat down, with Sofie helping to outline a plan.Da: Sammen byggede de en studieplan, der også gav plads til hygge og afslapning.En: Together, they built a study plan that also allowed for leisure and relaxation.Da: Den næste dag var anderledes for Lars.En: The next day was different for Lars.Da: Han opdagede en ny sikkerhed i sig selv, en styrke til at udtrykke sine behov.En: He discovered a new confidence in himself, a strength to express his needs.Da: Det var okay at bede om hjælp, og med Johan og Sofies støtte var han klar til det, der ventede.En: It was okay to ask for help, and with Johan and Sofie's support, he was ready for what awaited.Da: Væggene i kollegieværelset forblev fyldt med posters, bøgerne stod klar til at blive læst, og udenfor knitrede bladene i efterårsvinden.En: The walls of the kollegieværelse remained filled with posters, the books stood ready to be read, and outside, the leaves crackled in the autumn wind.Da: Spændt og med ro i sindet så Lars frem mod et nyt semester fuld af muligheder.En: Excited and with peace of mind, Lars looked forward to a new semester full of possibilities.

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen concludes our Ecclesiastes series and ministry year.In this message, we look back on a year of God's work in our church and then walk through the rise and fall of Solomon. How is it that the wisest man who ever lived lost everything because he failed to guard his heart?We'll see how God's repeated warnings, ancient commands, and deep desire for our undivided devotion apply directly to our lives today. Let's identify the subtle "other loves" that threaten to pull our hearts away, and make a clear, intentional plan to keep our hearts wholly His.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on August 31, 2025, at 10:15am.

In this week's mastermind, Ed Lane shared his proven systems for building long-term success through client referrals and engagement. With 80–90% of business coming from referrals, Ed emphasized that the key to growth isn't chasing leads—it's staying top of mind with your sphere and past clients. Key highlights included:Referral Power – How trust transfers from one client to another and why consistent touchpoints drive results (Ed generated 3 new listings in a week from referrals).Engagement Strategies – The impact of handwritten notes, a 70/30 personal-to-business social media mix, and client events with a charitable twist.Relationship Framework – Categorizing clients into A, B, and C groups, rewarding referrers as VIPs, and using the “Mayor Campaign” script to generate loyalty.Smart Automation with a Personal Touch – Combining CRMs, AI-driven market updates, and thoughtful seasonal gifts to make lasting impressions.Standing Out as a Broker – Crafting a unique, compelling response to “What do you do?” that sets you apart from every other agent.Irresistible Value Propositions – Why your offer should feel like presenting a $600,000 gold brick—so good clients can't say no.Ed wrapped the session by encouraging agents to refine 3–4 consistent activities to stay connected, underscoring that referrals come from connection, not just transactions.

Associate Pastor Ron King concludes our Ecclesiastes series.It's been said that our modern age has been diagnosed with the word disenchanted; our focus on the material has often robbed us of what is sacred. But after all of the wisdom Solomon has imparted in this book, his final words are actually a call to be re-enchanted with a childlike wonder and awe of God.This call is summarized with two final commands: to remember your Creator, and to fear God and keep his commandments. These words are Solomon's remedy for cynicism and his secret for human wholeness.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on August 24, 2025, at 10:15am.

In this session, veteran broker and former lender Ed breaks down how Federal Reserve meetings ripple through the real estate market and what that means for buyers and sellers today. He explains why mortgage rates often move before the Fed announces changes, how Wall Street expectations play into client decisions, and why educating buyers on timing opportunities is key in a shifting market. Ed also shares his strategies for building credibility and trust with clients, including how patience and negotiation can turn long listings into success stories.Plus, he introduces his custom ChatGPT tools for real estate pros, offering insights into daily rate tracking and smart mortgage strategies like float-down features.

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Ecclesiastes series.Picture Solomon like a wise grandpa on a final drive, sharing his best advice before you step into life on your own. He reminds us that much in life is unknown — storms come, plans shift, and God's work is often hidden — but our call is to be generous, keep moving, and trust Him.And in the end, his parting words are simple and powerful: rejoice. Enjoy life as the sweet gift it is, thank God for every moment, and don't let anxiety steal the joy He intends for you.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on August 17, 2025, at 10:15am.

From tackling extended listings and price reduction conversations to leveraging motivated seller opportunities, this session is packed with actionable scripts and market insights. You'll also get Ed's take on why waiting for lower interest rates can cost buyers more in the long run, plus how to use price bracketing and staged price reductions to win both offers and client trust.

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Ecclesiastes series.Chapter 10 feels like Solomon's unloading all the wisdom he forgot to mention. They're short, sharp one-liners about life, risk, relationships, and work.But even the best advice has limits. Life under the sun can still fall apart, no matter how wisely we live. That's why the real hope isn't in flawless wisdom, but in the good news that God's love meets both the wise and the fool right where we are.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on August 10, 2025, at 10:15am.

Learn how to communicate your value clearly, confidently, and memorably, while also gaining insider insight into off-market systems and how to use them to win clients.

Guest speaker Caleb Hunt continues our Ecclesiastes series.Have you ever had a friend who cuts through the noise to say exactly what you need to hear — not just what you want to hear? Today, Ecclesiastes plays that role, challenging us to face the one thing we'd rather ignore: death itself.Death is the great equalizer, reminding us that everything under the sun — our careers, legacies, and even wisdom — has limits. Yet, instead of despair, Ecclesiastes helps us see how confronting death head-on points us to genuine hope and purpose, found only when we invest in what lasts beyond the sun: God, His Word, and each other.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on August 3, 2025, at 10:15am.

Worship Director Justin Jackson continues our Ecclesiastes series.Chapter 8 wrestles with why wicked people seem to thrive, how we're supposed to live under flawed authority, and what to do when life just doesn't make sense.But through it all, Solomon shows us something surprisingly hopeful: it will be well with those who fear God — not because we'll have the answers, but because we're trusting the One who does.It's an honest look at why submission — real, deep, often uncomfortable submission — isn't weakness, but the path to peace.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on July 27, 2025, at 8:30am.

Worship Director Justin Jackson continues our Ecclesiastes series.What if the letdowns in life are actually beautiful invitations? Ecclesiastes 7 flips our expectations upside down, showing that mourning shapes us more than laughter, and legacy matters more than luxury.We chase control, comfort, and clarity, but every human scheme eventually fails. And that's the gift. Because in surrendering our plans, we begin to trust the One who made us for more than life under the sun. This message is an honest, poetic, and deeply hopeful reminder that the best things for us may not be the easiest, but they're always eternal.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on July 20, 2025, at 10:15am.

Have you ever poured hours into a YouTube video that racked up views but barely moved the needle on sales? Or maybe you've wondered why some marketers keep generating leads and revenue from videos they made years ago, while yours fade into the digital void? The difference isn't luck or timing—it's structure. Strategic scripting, built on psychological triggers, transforms YouTube videos from passive content into active sales engines. To learn how to apply the YouTube Sales Scripting Framework, I interview Salma Jafri.Guest: Salma Jafri | Show Notes: socialmediaexaminer.com/675Review our show on Apple Podcasts.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Associate Pastor Ron King continues our Ecclesiastes series.Have you ever found yourself chasing "just a little bit more" yet always feeling empty? Today, we're diving into wisdom from Solomon, the wealthiest man in history, who still struggled profoundly with satisfaction. In Ecclesiastes 5 and 6, Solomon exposes the truth that money itself never satisfies, we can't take our earthly treasures with us, and failing to find joy in God's gifts isn't just sad — it's spiritually corrosive.But there's hope. God offers a different path where we express deep gratitude for what we have and invest our lives in what truly lasts. If you're ready to break free from the endless hamster wheel of dissatisfaction and step into a life of authentic contentment, God has something powerful for you today.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on July 13, 2025, at 10:15am.

Youth Pastor Gary Jones continues our Ecclesiastes series.How we walk into God's presence matters. Too often, we rush in, distracted, busy, or burdened, offering words without weight and worship without reverence. But Ecclesiastes 5 calls us back: Guard your steps. Let your words be few. Fear God.It's not about silence or perfection — it's about listening and posture. What if your Sunday started not with making noises but with awe? What if hearing from God became your deepest expectation?Today, we're learning to show up differently and approach God with hearts ready to listen, vows we intend to keep, and reverence that shapes our worship.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on July 7, 2025, at 10:15am.

Have you ever heard of SCRIPTING? Scripting is a powerful manifestation technique rooted in the Law of Attraction. It's essentially writing a story about your life as if your desires have already come true. Think of it like journaling, but with a twist: you're writing from the future you, not the present you. The energy behind it is all about alignment- Feeling the emotions of your desired reality now, so you can attract it more easily. Why scripting works: It reprograms your subconscious mind, helping you believe that your goals are possible. When your beliefs shift, your actions and energy naturally align with the version of you who already has what you want. Quick Tips: *Start with “I'm so happy and grateful now that…” *Don't worry about “how” it'll happen focus on the feeling and vision. *Use a special notebook just for scripting to make it sacred and intentional. _________________________________________________________ Follow us on IG: @straightupsistersthepodcast @raqcsworld @lasusie Follow us on YOUTUBE: Straight Up Sisters Podcast For full episodes in AUDIO and VIDEO subscribe to Patreon.com/straightupsisters Email us: hello@straightupsisters.com
