We're back with our second episode of the month to talk about connecting with people so that you will have clients throughout 2024. We call it filling your pipeline. Many of us focus on getting business. If we can spend time connecting with people with purpose, there generally will be a more steady flow of clients throughout the year. Did you apply anything you've learned from the first episode already? We would love to hear what worked for you! Our email address is in the show notes. In this episode, we will look at the difference between online leads and live leads and a few marketing tips. February's guest is Janet Judd. She's a 2022 REBAC Hall of Fame recipient, Missouri Real Estate Commissioner, former President of the Missouri Association of REALTORS®, and she has won a number of awards in the business. She is going to give you real actionable tips to help you fill your buyer pipeline for 2024. [3:08] Excellent content on your site makes the difference. Janet gives some great recommendations. [4:37] Janet hangs on to hits because they picked her. Respond promptly when they contact you. Janet suggests you host virtual tours and webinars on your site. [7:08] Janet pays the website professionals for content, SEO, and marketing of her site. [10:25] Janet advertises in a neighborhood magazine to 55,000 homes a month. That's generated a few calls that she puts in her pipeline to send a monthly postcard. [16:47] When her leads start responding more conversationally to her texts or emails, Janet knows it's time to set up a phone call with them to slowly but surely reel them in. [18:46] Make sure you have testimonials on your website. Ask your clients for a testimonial right at the closing. [20:29] Janet is a worker bee. She volunteers and works hard. Active listening is one of Janet's superpowers. If you can do that, it makes all the difference. [22:13] Janet carries a wire-bound index card file in her purse to record notes about new contacts. For Janet, Top Producer is her “second brain.” Find your “second brain” that creates a flow. [31:30] Be a resource. It creates credibility, trust, and an emotional connection. People decide with their emotions. The educational approach is her focus, now. [33:50] I'm going to encourage our listeners to go back and listen to Part 1 of this conversation if they haven't already where Janet talks about her system of keeping up with leads and clients. [34:55] Some states allow incentives or inducements, some do not. Check your state law before offering one. [36:08] Some agents hold R.S.V.P.-only open houses as a security issue and let only one person come in at a time. Don't share your personal information online. [38:08] Janet's last word: “You need consistent, excellent service to your existing clients. That's what's going to keep you in the business. … Whatever you do, autograph it with excellence. [39:11] My favorite takeaway from Part 2 was the reminder that everything we do to improve our visibility will cost us time or money. What was your favorite tip from the 2nd episode? If you missed the first episode about great ways to connect with people in real-time, head back and hear Janet's tips to get started. [40:25] We're going to be having several months of episodes focusing on tools to help you communicate more clearly, set excellent expectations, and create great experiences.

We are so glad you joined us to help you start your new year! This episode's guest is Matthew Rathbun. Matthew will be discussing business suggestions, strategies, and ideas to help you make your plans for success in 2024. This is the first part of a series on Business Planning with Matthew this month. The second part will launch later this month. [2:55] Matthew is the EVP of a Coldwell Banker company with 10 or 11 offices in the D.C.-Maryland-Virginia area. [3:40] Matthew started teaching and has been teaching ever since. He is currently the president-elect for the Real Estate Business Institute, a good partner for CRD, providing lots of education to agents. [4:20] There has been attrition in the industry. A lot of agents are not seeing a lot of production right now. When you plan for next year, you have to base it on reality. [5:33] We are knowledge workers more than salespeople. The buyer hires you as a buyer's agent for what you know. How do you provide clarity on your value as a buyer's agent? [7:00] A knowledge worker will say, “I know the market, what my capabilities are, and what my consumer base is and I'm going to build a strategic plan.” [7:37] You can be a knowledge worker to your consumers and demonstrate that value to them. You can use your knowledge and say, “I'm the CEO of me.” [9:21] What are we changing for 2024? Agents need to be much more precise with their goals to be able to look back and see what they've accomplished and why this is a good career for them. [11:12] Matthew goes over tips and tools on how to interject your goals. Substantial industry changes are coming but most of our chaos is controllable. [13:00] You're controlling whatever chaos you can. Putting systems in place is so important. “You do not rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your systems.” — James Clear [15:48] With industry changes, Matthew says training will be a core part of any successful agent's business. [18:33]. Change is good. A bad change can be corrected to something better. Have a healthy mindset on addressing change. Lean into change and what it means. [23:06] It's time to add to your listing kit and improve the buyer consultation kit on your website. Market your value proposition for buyers. Matthew discusses what to do in the next 30 to 90 days. [25:45] Agents need a better consumer persona. Who do you want to work with? Just saying you want to work with sellers or with buyers is not focused enough to reach the core consumer that you want. [30:18] Matthew cites Atomic Habits, by James Clear as the most transformative book. He recommends other books. [32:50] Monica urges you to check the resources mentioned in this episode and Matthew Rathbun's website linked in the notes. What education do you need to add to your life and business? The Center for REALTOR® development highly recommends ABR®, The Accredited Buyer's Representative designation. Tweetables: “This is very much an industry where you get to eat what you kill. You hunt it. You kill it. Now you get to enjoy it, so to speak.” — Matthew Rathbun “Change is good. I've always said change is good. Even if it's bad change, it's generally going to be corrected and lead to something that's better.” — Matthew Rathbun “Every successful CEO is a reader. That's one of the common traits of all successful CEOs.” — Matthew Rathbun Guest Links:Matthew Rathbun on Facebook Canva Templates at Etsy.com NARRPR.com REALTOR® Property Resource Building a StoryBrand: Clarify Your Message So Customers Will Listen, by Donald Miller Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones, by James Clear Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential, by Tiago Forte Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity, by David Allen Canva.com Alignment.io Trello.com MyStorybrand.com Freeform – app for iPads and iPhones only MindMup.com Coffitivity.com Matthewrathbun.com/resources/ NAR Resource LinksNAR.realtor/technologyABR® SRS Additional Links: Microcourses found at Learning.REALTOR.

I love learning and sharing what I've learned with anyone willing to listen. It's what I've done all of my life. I'm a restless and demanding learner myself, so I focus on people in the audience who want advanced information, a little humor, and actionable information when they leave. If a learner attends one of my sessions, I feel honored to have them there and feel that I have a duty to ensure that the time they have given me will be valuable to them. I believe that every moment with learners should count. I still work with clients and actually practice the skills and information that I deliver in each class. I'm also a licensed broker in Virginia, DC, and Maryland and a licensed instructor in many states in the U.S. I am the Executive Vice President of a large multi-office firm in Virginia and oversee operations, risk management, and agent development among other things. Before becoming a broker, I was a high-performing agent and received a number of awards and accolades throughout the year including the Virginia Association Instructor of the Year, and was recognized by RISMedia Newsmaker Thought Leader in 2020. My course offerings are pretty extensive and I'm always happy to create unique content if it's within my knowledge base. I'm a certified CRS instructor and have contributed to or written various national certification and designation courses for RRC, REBAC, and REBI (all three NAR education institutes). My emphasis is on leadership development, technology, risk management, and advanced practice of real estate. I have a wide range of experience with risk reduction, including serving on the local, state, and national professional standards workgroups, MLS compliance committees, and various other industry opportunities that have given me broad exposure to what should be the best practices in the industry. I am an alumnus of the VAR Leadership Academy. As an author, I have contributed to many real estate industry magazines and online industry news venues. A few accolades: ■ REBI National Distinguished Instructor of the Year 2021 ■ CRS National Instructor of the Year 2020 ■ Virginia Association of REALTORS® — Instructor of the Year 2007 ■ RISMedia Newsmaker — 2020 Influencer ■ Virginia REALTORS® Graduate — Leadership Academy — 2007 ■ Fredericksburg Assoc. of REALTORS® — Realtor of the Year 2020 ■ Fredericksburg Assoc. of REALTORS® — President's Award 2010 ■ Fredericksburg Assoc. of REALTORS® — Code of Ethics Award 2011 ■ Fredericksburg Assoc. of REALTORS® — Rookie of the Year 2003 ■ Fredericksburg Assoc. of REALTORS® — Honor “Role” ■ Fredericksburg Assoc. of REALTORS® — Production Awards ■ Coldwell Banker Recruiter Award — Virginia

5 Leadership Questions Podcast on Church Leadership with Todd Adkins
In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast, Todd Adkins and Dan Iten are joined by Mark Satterfield, the Lead Pastor at the Glade Church in Mount Juliet, Tennessee. They focus on the five steps to getting things done, which include reducing, prioritizing, planning, executing, and measuring tasks. Satterfield also highlights the importance of having a vision framework, utilizing task management and productivity apps, learning from CEOs, reducing clutter, saying no to non-priority tasks, and delegating effectively. The 5 steps to getting things done are: Reduce: This step involves evaluating tasks and prioritizing them based on importance and relevance. (3:07) Prioritize: After reducing tasks, it is important to prioritize the remaining tasks based on their significance and alignment with vision and values. (14:18) Plan: The planning step involves creating a schedule or a plan to allocate time and resources to the prioritized tasks. This includes using strategies like the Eisenhower matrix to determine what is important and urgent. (22:56) Execute: Once the plan is in place, executing and working towards accomplishing the tasks is important. This step focuses on acting and following through with the plan. (26:16) Measure: The final step is to measure the progress and effectiveness of the tasks. This includes evaluating whether the tasks were successfully completed and adjusting if needed. (38:08) You can follow Mark on Twitter @sattymark or at his website at marksatterfield.blog. BEST QUOTES "The reduction of insignificant tasks and clutter in physical and digital spaces also leads to greater efficiency in work." – Mark Satterfield "The evaluation and elimination of insignificant tasks should be a constant habit for leaders." – Mark Satterfield “One of the craziest things that can take place in the leader's life is working on things that you accomplish for the day only to walk out and not know that those things really aren't important for your own personal mission or the mission of the church.” – Mark Satterfield “There's work that we're doing that technically shouldn't be our work, you should be delegating it to others because it's actually their work.” – Mark Satterfield “If you're a leader of an organization and you're trying to think through your measures or evaluate what's getting done, that is only going to be as strong as the vision framework you have for your organization.” – Mark Satterfield “You do not rise to the level of your goals; you fall to the level of your systems.” – James Clear RECOMMENDED RESOURCES Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential by Tiago Forte At Your Best: How to Get Time, Energy, and Priorities Working in Your Favor by Carey Nieuwhof Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear High-Performance Habits: How Extraordinary People Become That Way by Brendon Burchard The Compound Effect: Jumpstart Your Income, Your Life, Your Success by Darren Hardy

This week's episode of the Growth Guide Podcast features Tiago Forte, author of the book "Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential." Tiago is one of the world's foremost experts on productivity and has taught thousands of people around the world how timeless principles and the latest technology can revolutionize their productivity, creativity, and personal effectiveness. He has worked with organizations such as Genentech, Toyota Motor Corporation, and the Inter-American Development Bank and appeared in a variety of publications, such as The New York Times, The Atlantic, and Harvard Business Review. On this episode of The Growth Guide, we explore the power of organization with the concept of PARA. Tiago explains how this system emerged from the need for order in different areas of life, and breaks down the four categories that make up PARA: projects, areas of responsibility, resources, and archives. Tiago shares tips for organizing tasks and capturing information efficiently, and discusses the benefits of distillation and creating a "second brain" full of curated information. We also delve into the tension between quantity and quality when it comes to productivity, and explore the importance of prioritization and boundaries to avoid burnout. Tune in to learn how to organize any kind of information and achieve your career goals.[05.55] Second Brain - the system for our second brain is code, capture, organize, distill, express.

Today I talked to Tiago Forte about his new book Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential (Atria Books, 2022). For the first time in history, we have instantaneous access to the world's knowledge. There has never been a better time to learn, to contribute, and to improve ourselves. Yet, rather than feeling empowered, we are often left feeling overwhelmed by this constant influx of information. The very knowledge that was supposed to set us free has instead led to the paralyzing stress of believing we'll never know or remember enough. Now, this eye-opening and accessible guide shows how you can easily create your own personal system for knowledge management, otherwise known as a Second Brain. As a trusted and organized digital repository of your most valued ideas, notes, and creative work synced across all your devices and platforms, a Second Brain gives you the confidence to tackle your most important projects and ambitious goals. Tiago Forte is the Second Brain Guy. Here's how he describes himself: "I am a first-generation American, born and raised in Orange County in Southern California. I grew up in a mixed Brazilian and Filipino household with two brothers and a sister. Our home was filled with culture and the arts for as long as I can remember. My mother is a talented musician and singer who exposed us to the distinct rhythms of Brazilian music and the Portuguese language from our earliest years. My father is a professional artist who covered every wall of our home with his paintings and sketches."

As a trusted and organized digital repository of your most valued ideas, notes, and creative work synced across all your devices and platforms, a Second Brain gives you the confidence to tackle your most important projects and ambitious goals. Tiago Forte is the Second Brain Guy. Here's how he describes himself: "I am a first-generation American, born and raised in Orange County in Southern California. I grew up in a mixed Brazilian and Filipino household with two brothers and a sister. Our home was filled with culture and the arts for as long as I can remember. My mother is a talented musician and singer who exposed us to the distinct rhythms of Brazilian music and the Portuguese language from our earliest years. My father is a professional artist who covered every wall of our home with his paintings and sketches."

StoryShots Book Summary and Review of Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential by Tiago Forte Introduction Do you struggle to be productive? Do you find it hard to learn and remember things? Is it difficult to focus and not procrastinate? You may need to build a second brain. Tiago Forte's Building a Second Brain offers a system for capturing, organizing, and storing your thoughts, ideas, and knowledge. The book suggests that by building a “second brain,” you can improve your memory, boost your productivity, and make better decisions. A second brain is a personal knowledge base. It allows you to better capture, process, and leverage your knowledge and experience. Imagine if you could store new information efficiently in your head, like a well-organized filing cabinet. You could then use that cabinet as a resource to help you get things done. The book is organized into three main sections. The first focuses on the principles of personal knowledge management (PKM). These include developing a growth mindset and curiosity in learning and personal development. PKM shows the benefits of developing a system for capturing and organizing information. The second section covers the various tools and techniques that can be used to build a second brain. These include methods for capturing and organizing information, such as note-taking, indexing, and tagging. We also learn techniques for synthesizing and summarizing information, such as mind mapping and concept mapping. The final section covers the application of PKM in various contexts, including work, education, and personal development. You will learn how to apply PKM principles and techniques in these different contexts to achieve specific goals and outcomes. About Tiago Forte Tiago Forte is a productivity expert and entrepreneur. He has spent over a decade studying and researching best practices for capturing, organizing, and using personal knowledge and information. Forte has a background in design and education. He has worked with organizations such as Google, IDEO, and Stanford University.

With so much happening in our work and personal lives on a daily basis, how do you keep track of things? Which one of the following do you generally practice? 1. Just try to remember all of it with your brain2. Save reminders or alerts with a calendar or events management app3. Maintain a daily diary4. Some other way! As argued and mentioned by most founders and VCs on our podcast so far, like Gaurav Munjal, Founder Unacademy, its futile to put so much pressure on your brain to try and remember everything all the time. Instead, its best to take notes of all the things that matter to you or you think would matter to you down the line, store it somewhere and refer it when needed, and just use your brain as a processor, rather than a hard drive. In today's episode, we have with us, Tiago Forte, Founder, Forte Labs and we're going to talk in-depth about his book - “Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organise Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential”. In simple words, taking and processing notes in an effective and efficient way.

In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Tiago Forte, author of A Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential, talks about his innovative, time-tested method for the organization of ideas. What he calls “building a second brain” is a process of organizing, storing, and reflecting on ideas — all to make an “external impact” in your personal life or career. Sit down with host Brandon Laws as he talks with Tiago about his new book and about how his “second brain” has revolutionized his education and career. TAKEAWAYS The “second brain” is a system that allows you to preserve and store all of your most important information. Users reflect on, process, analyze, and understand this information to create an external impact. A common pitfall is becoming an information collector without any particular purpose in mind. We improve communication by having better inputs: research, examples, metaphors, data points, stories — the supporting evidence that then becomes part of your communication. When you keep a collection of very succinct notes all in one place, you start to notice connections or associations that you hadn't recognized before.

In his eye-opening and accessible new book, Tiago Forte shows how you can easily create your own personal system for knowledge management, otherwise known as a Second Brain. You will discover the full potential of your ideas and translate what you know into more powerful, more meaningful improvements in your work and life by Building a Second Brain.

In the modern age, people are bombarded with more information, and are more personally responsible for managing that information, than ever before. How do you stay on top of your schedule, work responsibilities, financial obligations, and the spigot of media that runs full force 24/7 while not only avoiding becoming overwhelmed, but actually using all that information to generate better ideas, advance your career, and generally improve your life?My guest would say that the answer lies in having a mind outside your mind. His name is Tiago Forte and he's the author of Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential. Today on the show, Tiago explains how a Second Brain is an external resource where you can store all of the most valuable checklists, thoughts, notes, ideas, and insights you acquire and generate. He explains how the Second Brain supercharges the historical practice of keeping a commonplace book, and how it improves your productivity and well-being by getting stuff out of your head, off your bandwidth, and into a place where you can actually put it to use. Tiago then walks us through this system of "Personal Knowledge Management," including the tools you can use to capture information, the question to ask yourself to decide what to capture, and why he recommends organizing what you capture around action instead of subject. And Tiago explains how the ultimate goal of having a Second Brain is to take what you put into this treasury and synthesize it into better ways to live, think, act, and express yourself.Resources Related to the PodcastCommonplace booksAoM Article: The Man Book — Creating a Reservoir of Timeless WisdomTiago's YouTube series on choosing a digital notes appDigital note-taking apps mentioned in the show:EvernoteNotionObsidian Google KeepMicrosoft OneNotePocket — an article-saving appTiago's blog post on his "PARA" organization systemConnect With Tiago ForteTiago's WebsiteListen to the Podcast!

Why do cashiers often ask for your phone number or email address? What if you don't want to share that information? This episode begins by explaining why they ask and what your response should be. https://www.rd.com/article/this-is-why-stores-ask-for-your-phone-number-at-the-checkout/ Everyone needs at least one friend. That's according to Lydia Denworth, a science journalist and author of the book Friendship: The Evolution, Biology and Extraordinary Power of Life's Fundamental Bond (https://amzn.to/3N5UebS). Lydia joins me to discuss how important friendship is, how to make friends and how to have better, stronger friendships. Do you have a good system to keep track of all the information you have to deal with? Many of us try to keep track of everything – or most things – in our head. That may not be such a good idea according to Tiago Forte, a leading expert on productivity and author of the book Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential (https://amzn.to/3xuA9WB). Listen as Tiago explains the positive impact of simply writing things down to help you keep track all the things in your life – and it doesn't require a complicated system in order to get the benefits. If you've ever spent time in an airplane bathroom, you know that the less time you spend in there, the better. But just how gross is it really?
