Podcasts about top producers

In this episode of the Icenhower Coaching Podcast, Brian Icenhower reveals the proven strategies top-performing real estate agents use when pricing listings in a slow market. As inventory rises and buyer urgency softens, many listings are sitting longer—and overpriced homes are going stale fast. Brian shares why conservative pricing is no longer optional, how to lead sellers with data and motivation-based conversations, and what to do when clients resist realistic pricing. You'll learn: Why the first 30 days on market are critical How to avoid expired listings with smart, proactive pricing How to position yourself as a trusted advisor, not just a salesperson The best way to use comparative market analysis (CMA) and inventory stats How to help sellers understand their motivation and the buy-sell wash Whether you're a solo agent, real estate team leader, or brokerage owner, this episode is packed with actionable insights on pricing listings in a slow market that will help you retain trust, close more sales, and stand out as a true professional.

In this throwback episode, Chris is joined by Miguel Jubiz to unpack the brutal truth behind why most real estate professionals never build real wealth. Miguel breaks down the critical difference between the cash machine (earning commissions) and the wealth machine (building lasting assets)—and how agents can unlock both to create financial freedom.With over $30M in annual sales, 20+ flips a year, and a lean, high-profit team, Miguel shares the systems, mindset, and strategies that helped him escape the transactional grind and build a business that prints money—even when he's not working.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why most agents fail to transition from making money to building wealthMiguel's strategy for managing 82+ annual transactions and 20+ flips with a small teamThe exact script and math he uses to recruit and motivate high-performing showing assistantsHow he built a business where showing agents earn $120K+ per yearHis investor-first model for winning repeat deals and referralsWhy delegating showings helped him double his incomeThe deal breakdown: how he sourced, funded, and profited from a $375K flipMiguel's next big play: launching a hard money bank and hitting $10M net profitConnect with Miguel Lubiz:Instagram: @jubizrealestateEmail: mjubiz@silverrockhomesgroup.comHit Chris up:Instagram: @craddrockFacebook: Chris Craddock BusinessRESOURCES:

What if your biggest growth strategy is actually the thing that's holding your business back? In this episode, I break down the most common mistake new (and even seasoned) brokers make: saying yes to every deal, every partner, and every opportunity. It's a fast track to burnout—and a slow road to profitability. I'll show you what top producers do differently: how they get clear on who they serve, what they say no to, and how that focus leads to more volume, more referrals, and less stress. What We Cover: Why Being for Everyone is a Trap – How generalist brokers hit a ceiling fast. The Power of Positioning – Why top producers pick a niche—and get paid more for it. Profit Killers to Avoid – Files, partners, and platforms that drain your time and energy. No-Go List Strategy – How writing down what you won't do can unlock better deals. Say No, Grow Fast – The mindset shift that turns “less” into “more.” Follow me on Instagram: www.instagram.com/scottpeckford/ I Love Mortgage Brokering: www.ilovemortgagebrokering.com Find out more about BRX Mortgage: www.whybrx.com Subscribe to my 3-2-1 Thursday Email I Love Mortgage Brokering is in partnership with Ownwell.  To see how top brokers are keeping clients engaged and generating leads from their database, visit ownwell.ca/scott.

Episode 92 kicks off with some wrestling anecdotes before diving into Chris Brown's Breezy Bowl tour stop in Toronto, where he managed to pack 50,000 fans into a temporary venue despite pouring rain. The crew discusses Chris's influence and resilience, highlighting how he's remained consistent for nearly two decades and continues to receive support despite challenges.The conversation then pivots to an intriguing debate: could Jermaine Dupri bring out Chris's best work? While die-hard CB fans argue he doesn't need anyone, the team explores JD's track record (including multiple appearances on Billboard's newly released Top Producers list) and makes the case for why the pairing could make sense. From there, they break down Cardinal B's new single “Imaginary Playerz,” which samples Hov's classic, sparking a bigger question when it comes to remakes in music and film, is being “dope” enough, or does it also need to surpass the original? Other topics include Cardi B's eight-year delay in releasing her sophomore album and the possible label politics behind it, a viral social media post claiming men should never tell their girlfriend if they're facing financial struggles, Jurnee Smollett's alimony situation, the upcoming Jake Paul fight, and a few other media tidbits.

I recently took a small group of elite producers into the Northwoods to prove there's a better way to get together than the typical insurance conference.

We get into the power of shared struggle, the non-negotiable health habits of high-performers, and the value-driven decisions that separate them from the rest of the industry.

In this hard-hitting episode, Chris delivers a powerful message every agent needs to hear — most of us are lying to ourselves about the work we're actually doing. Chris breaks down a stat from a recent mastermind revealing the average agent makes less than one two-minute prospecting call per day, yet thinks they're making six. He parallels this with a personal fitness journey and challenges agents to track their numbers, stay honest, and do the actual work required to win in today's brutal market. Key Takeaways:Agents believe they're working harder than they are — and that disconnect is devastating their business.Micro-cheating (in business or health) adds up and sabotages results.Tracking is the key to progress. If you're not measuring it, you're making it up.Prospecting five meaningful conversations per day can lead to a 30%+ increase in revenue.The ones who succeed are the ones who don't quit at the 15-minute mark.Being honest about your activity is the foundation of building real momentum in your career.Connect with Chris:

Families are house-rich but cash-poor. Sound familiar? Your home's value has skyrocketed, but so have interest rates, and now you're stuck. Stuck with rising expenses. Stuck with high-interest debt. Stuck with equity… trapped in the walls of your own house. It's like having a vault of money you can't touch, while inflation and debt slowly suffocate your financial freedom. What if your house could pay off your debt? What if you could control your money instead of the bank controlling it? How much faster could you reach financial freedom if your home worked for you? There's a smarter way to tap into that hidden wealth, and it's called a First Lien HELOC. This isn't your typical home equity line. It's a powerful financial tool that lets you access your equity, pay down debt faster, and use your home to build real wealth, not just sit on paper gains. In this episode, I'm joined by Harrison George, Mortgage Loan Officer at CMG Financial, to discuss how you can use your home's equity to pay off debt. We break down how it works, the potential benefits, and why it might be a smart financial move to consider.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -Creating wealth from existing debt Strategically refinancing existing debt can turn what's traditionally a liability into a source of capital for wealth-building. How could you restructure your current debts to start funding income-producing assets? -A self-completing financial cycle A First Lien HELOC can streamline and optimize your entire financial system by combining debt repayment and cash flow management. What else can it do for us? -Is more better More policies don't always mean better results in a private banking system. How do you know when adding another policy is helping or just complicating your system? Guest Bio Harrison George is a highly accomplished Mortgage Loan Officer at CMG Financial in Meridian, Idaho, specializing in both purchase and refinance solutions. With a degree from Colorado Mesa University, he has earned recognition as a Top Producer by Scotsman Guide for his exceptional loan performance.

If you're struggling to make it as a seller, you may be unknowingly doing things that a top performer would never do. To help you figure out what you may be doing wrong, I'm going back to episode 1831 with my chat with Andrew Barbuto, a seasoned sales professional and author. He shares five things that top-performing sellers always do to help them succeed in finding clients and closing deals. Andrew Barbuto's BackgroundAndrew Barbuto is an accomplished sales professional and author with a deep understanding of the intricacies of top-performing sales strategies. He shares his sales methodologies in his insightful book, “Top Sales Producer: How To Crush Your Sales Quota.” Andrew's commitment to excellence in sales makes him a valuable resource for anyone aspiring to elevate their sales performance and effectively manage their client interactions.Key Practices of Top PerformersAndrew shares the five things that top performers do differently than average performers. 1. Time Management: Top performers allocate their time to maximize revenue-generating activities. Start early on your work tasks and focus only on the ones that bring in money. Also, don't forget to put the phone down to help avoid distractions.2. Research: You may find researching on a specific client to be long and boring, but it's one of the most important tasks top performers do. Andrew explains that rather than adopting a broad approach, successful sellers conduct targeted research to identify and connect with the right prospects. 3. Meeting Preparation: You can avoid generic questions and tailor conversations to address specific needs by coming to a meeting prepared. This is why it's important to research a prospect before contacting them. 4. Prospecting Activities: Andrew recommends employing a multi-channel approach with at least seven touch points, including phone calls, emails, and LinkedIn messages. This persistence helps in turning cold prospects into warm leads.5. Leveraging CRM: Creating detailed notes will allow you to maintain contact with prospects and provide personalized value to each one of them. You can do this by using a CRM system to help strengthen your client relationships. “Top producers typically will try to allocate as much time as they possibly can to revenue-generating activities.” – Andrew Barbuto.Resources Learn more sales tips from Andrew from his book,“Top Sales Producer: How To Crush Your Sales Quota.”Follow Andrew on LinkedIn and YouTube.

When the market shifts in real estate, you can go from the high of your best year ever to the low of wondering if you'll ever sell a home again. You're showing up, doing the work, and checking all the boxes. But during a downturn, the quick wins of a hot market disappear, and suddenly, effort doesn't equal results. This is where most agents spiral. They panic, pause, or start changing everything. But the real danger isn't the market. It's how you respond to the silence. Because when things slow down, the most tempting (and most costly) mistake is to stop doing the very activities that used to work, just because they're not giving you immediate ROI. So, how do you push through a slump? How do you keep showing up when it feels like nothing is working? In this episode, agent Lauren Buckler shares how she went from a $10M year to a brutal 8-transaction stretch, and how she rebuilt her business without changing strategies.    Your objections will always transform because that market's always changing. You have to keep up. -Lauren Buckler   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The comeback equation When your business tanks, the average agent pivots. Why is it smarter to double down on the same activities?  Stop using stale objection handlers Our scripts have to evolve with the market. How do we make sure we're using objection handlers that match what's actually going on?  Cold calling isn't a phone game Getting over our fear of cold calls isn't about better scripts; it's about controlling our energy before we ever touch the dial. How do we do this?  Don't get motivated, get bored High-performers don't win because they feel inspired. What actually drives them?    Guest Bio Lauren Buckler has been a Realtor since 2020. Being of service to people has always been in her nature and is one of the reasons why she chose to become an agent. And why not for one of the most meaningful purchases of their life? Clients love her integrity, honesty, how thorough she is, and that she will go above and beyond when necessary. Lauren moved from NEPA with he​​r husband, Adam, six years ago to make living by the beach a reality. In her spare time, she enjoys jet skiing, hiking, biking, camping and traveling. She has already been enjoying the environment and energy at the office and looks forward to taking her career to the next level.
