When most agents think about increasing their online lead conversions, they picture tech: CRMs, ISAs, AI automations, and endless drip campaigns. But the uncomfortable truth is, none of it has actually moved the industry's conversion rate. Despite all the shiny new tools, agents are still struggling to turn leads into clients. The real problem isn't the lead source, or the CRM or the tech you're not using. It's your mindset and activity. Too many agents label leads as “bad” because the timeline is longer than they'd like. Too many make one or two attempts, then drop the lead into automation and wait. And too many assume the next CRM or campaign will be the breakthrough. Buyers don't want better drip emails; they just want more contacts. How can you increase lead conversion without spending more money? In this episode of Level Up, we unpack the counterintuitive secret to online buyer lead conversion. It's not about better tech, and it's not about finding the perfect lead source. Things You'll Learn In This Episode “Bad leads” aren't bad, just mistimed Most leads labeled as bad are really just further out in their timeline. What happens when you stop dismissing long-term leads and start treating them as future clients? Attempts beat apps every time Conversion skyrockets when you commit to 10+ real contact attempts instead of relying on automation. How much money are you leaving on the table by stopping at two calls? Speed to lead closes deals 73% of buyers hire the first agent they speak with. How do you build a system so you're always the one answering first? Real ROI comes from activity, not tech Tech tweaks give you fractions of improvement. Human persistence gives you multiples. Why are agents chasing 0.2% bumps instead of 5x results? About Your Host Greg Harrelson is a real estate agent, coach, trainer and owner of Century 21 The Harrelson Group.

On Feb 2, 2008, 24-year-old real estate agent Lindsay Buziak met some prospective clients at a home for a private showing. Lindsay had an uneasy feeling about this showing, so she had asked her boyfriend to wait in his car outside while she did the showing. Unfortunately, Lindsay's boyfriend was late arriving to the showing and when he did get there, things seemed off and he went into the home to check on Lindsay, only to make a gruesome discovery.

The real estate world has shifted, and whether we like it or not, there's no going back. Too many agents are still treating the changes as an extinction event, but here's the truth: if you adapt, we still have the opportunity we've had to grow market share in years. Since the settlement, more agents have entered the industry. That means more competition, but also more proof that complacency kills careers. The new agents are hungry, willing to try what others won't, and most importantly, they're not afraid to embrace tools like AI to move faster and smarter. I've been in this business long enough to see that the AI-powered agent is nearly impossible to beat. When you know how to pair technology with your expertise, you become unstoppable. It's not about replacing what makes us human; it's about amplifying it to generate more leads, close more deals, and serve clients in ways our industry couldn't imagine a few years ago. I was a guest on The 13% Podcast with Lance Billingsley and Dave Richards, where we went deep on what it takes to thrive in real estate today. In our conversation, I shared how agents can navigate a post-settlement industry and why AI is a game-changer for lead gen and client service. Things You'll Learn In This Episode Business as usual is a trap If you keep working the way you always have, you'll lose market share. What happens to agents who refuse to adapt? The AI-powered agent is unstoppable. Blending technology with expertise gives some agents an unfair advantage. How are they closing more deals while working less? Complacency is killing seasoned pros. Hungry new agents are outpacing veterans every day. What simple mindset shift can help you stay ahead of the competition? Guest Bio Lance Billingsley is a seasoned real estate professional with over a decade of experience in agent development and business coaching. Since January 2021, he has served as the Vice President of Agent Development at Navi Title Agency, where he leverages his extensive industry knowledge to mentor and support real estate agents. Before his tenure at Navi Title, Lance co-owned a top-performing real estate team at Realty ONE Group, achieving recognition as one of the company's top five teams. He also served as a business coach for Tom Ferry. Dave Richards is a well-respected business coach working with CEOs, entrepreneurs, mortgage and real estate professionals, and others. With over 25+ years of executive leadership experience, he coaches and consults with the top professionals and organizations in their respective industries. Capitalizing on his certifications in Human Behavior, he specializes in building and optimizing high-performance teams and tackling difficult decisions that hold his clients back.

But a life-changing mentorship and her own unstoppable drive transformed her skepticism into passion.

What sets Athena apart isn't just her professional expertise —it's her remarkable story of resilience. After being diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease, Athena faced debilitating challenges that could have ended her career. Instead, she turned adversity into her superpower, rebuilding her business with even greater focus and purpose. Today, Athena inspires audiences by sharing hard-won lessons on overcoming setbacks, building a relationship-driven business, and leveraging real estate as a tool for financial freedom.

How do you go from zero deals to 30 in just your second year as an agent?
It's amazing what you can accomplish in a year that seems like nothing day by day. I used to see Realtors do this. "How are things going for you?" Realtor: "I'm so busy. I had 3 closings last month." Most people waste time hurrying up and waiting. Instead of doing daily, consistent actions, they wait on something to happen instead of making it happen. It's a vicsious cycle. The work has to be done daily and it's not sexy, but it's those little unsexy actions done over time consistently that make the world go around and push things forward in life. I don't wait to get fat before I have to go to the gym. I go now because I know it'll take me longer to battle health challenges if my body is out of shape. I don't eat like a 20-year old. I eat things that fuel my body. Same goes for everything we do, but things aren't going to change if you're not taking massive action and simply waiting for things to fall in your lap. It's not how the universe works. Get to work. And you'll see the fruits of your labor manifest.

Donna Adelson Trial — Tim Kelly (Realtor) Says Family Looked at Tallahassee Homes In this raw courtroom clip from the Donna Adelson Trial, Tallahassee realtor Tim Kelly takes the stand and lays out a detail the defense wants front and center: back in 2011, he showed homes to Donna and Harvey Adelson—appointments he says were set up at Dan Markel's request. Kelly methodically explains when the showings happened, the neighborhoods he toured with the Adelsons, and the ordinary, practical tone of those conversations. It's not flashy testimony, but it's the kind that makes jurors pause: if Donna and Harvey were considering a move to Tallahassee years before Markel's 2014 murder, how does that square with the state's theory that the family was fixated on getting Wendi and the kids out of Tallahassee? Why it matters: motive. Prosecutors have framed this case around family conflict, relocation pressures, and control. Kelly's testimony can't rewrite the larger timeline—but it complicates it. The defense is using him to suggest the Adelsons' priorities weren't a one-way street. If jurors conclude the family at one time explored living near Markel instead of removing the children from him, that nuance could seed reasonable doubt around the state's overarching motive story. Watch for the specifics: who contacted whom (Kelly says Markel), how the showings unfolded, and how the search ultimately fizzled. The defense is aiming for a simple takeaway—this was normal family logistics, not a breadcrumb trail toward violence. The prosecution, for its part, will argue the 2011 showings are a blip with little bearing on the decisions and communications that followed years later. Bottom line: Kelly adds a quiet but strategic brick to the defense wall. It's not the kind of testimony that makes headlines, but it's exactly the kind that jurors revisit when they're sorting motive from speculation. #hashtags #DonnaAdelsonTrial #DanMarkel #TimKelly #TrueCrime #Tallahassee #MurderForHire #Courtroom #TrialUpdate #LegalAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The defense is using him to suggest the Adelsons' priorities weren't a one-way street. If jurors conclude the family at one time explored living near Markel instead of removing the children from him, that nuance could seed reasonable doubt around the state's overarching motive story. Watch for the specifics: who contacted whom (Kelly says Markel), how the showings unfolded, and how the search ultimately fizzled. The defense is aiming for a simple takeaway—this was normal family logistics, not a breadcrumb trail toward violence. The prosecution, for its part, will argue the 2011 showings are a blip with little bearing on the decisions and communications that followed years later. Bottom line: Kelly adds a quiet but strategic brick to the defense wall. It's not the kind of testimony that makes headlines, but it's exactly the kind that jurors revisit when they're sorting motive from speculation. #hashtags #DonnaAdelsonTrial #DanMarkel #TimKelly #TrueCrime #Tallahassee #MurderForHire #Courtroom #TrialUpdate #LegalAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
