If you're a property manager, BDM, or business owner, you're always looking for ways to grow your rent roll and bring in new business. Partnering with buyer's agents is one of the most overlooked yet powerful relationships you can have in business and could connect you with multiple investor clients, filling your pipeline with potential opportunities. Your next big client might not come from cold outreach, it could come from a strategic partnership. Instead of waiting for landlords to come to you, build relationships with the professionals who are bringing investors into the market right now. Buyer's agents have built strong trust with their clients, making their referrals highly valuable And if you want to future proof your property management business, create a steady stream of referrals, and get ahead of your competition, it's time to start networking with the right buyer's agents. In this episode I chat with Emily Wallace who is the Founder, Director and driving force behind Wallace Advocates, a boutique Melbourne based buyers agency dedicated to helping clients find their dream homes. With a passion for demystifying the property market, Emily is committed to guiding buyers through the most significant purchase of their lives. Wallace Advocates specialises in securing homes for clients who want to live in them rather than expand an investment portfolio. This philosophy is at the heart of Emily's approach, ensuring each property purchased feels like the perfect fit.“In property managers that I've spoken to, the ones that are leveraging the buyer's agent relationship the best are those who really make great relationships with their clients, who are investors who want to build a portfolio and recommend them to a buyer's advocate to help grow that portfolio. And in return that buyer's advocate. Giving the business back to that property manager to look after the properties that they purchased.” -Emily WallaceWe explore:- How property managers can form referral relationships with buyer agents- Why property managers should be leveraging these partnerships to grow their rent rolls- What buyer's agents look for in a property manager before making a referral- The best ways to approach a buyer's agent and pitch your property management services- How technology and systems play a role in building trust and securing more business- Why communication and transparency are the key factors in winning over investors- How the buyer's advocacy industry is evolving and what it means for property managersKylie's ResourcesProperty Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchool Digital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschool That Property Mum Courses: https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/courses/ The PM Accelerate Membership: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/accelerate Book a Strategy Call with Kylie: https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/coaching-call Kolmeo: https://kolmeo.com/ HD&U Sales Bundle:

Do you know the power of intertwining your personal narrative with your business journey? Do you know how to find the thread that unites that story with your agency's mission and values? Today's guest is a narrative strategist who built his agency around helping entrepreneurs shape their stories to attract the right clients by communicating their goals and values. Discover how owning and sharing impactful stories can set owners apart from salespeople and lead to successful outcomes. Matthew Woodget is a self-proclaimed "hopeless story addict" and the founder and Chief Storyteller of Go Narrative, an agency focused on supporting changemakers by helping them reshape their narratives and align them with their vision. Matt believes in the importance of stories in building meaningful connections and achieving collective business success. He delves into the common pitfall of sharing too much information too soon, leading to missed opportunities in sales. He highlights the power of owning and sharing compelling stories to differentiate oneself and drive success. In this episode, we'll discuss: The power of a well-crafted narrative. The Seven Types of Business Stories. Finding the heart of your story.  Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio What is the Power of Narrative and Storytelling in Business? As a narrative strategist and lover of stories, Matt knows the importance of storytelling in business and personal relationships and its power in shaping one's narrative, building meaningful connections, and ultimately achieving collective success with and through others. Although he doesn't particularly like the term storytelling, Matt recognizes it as a powerful tool to get people's attention. To him, we are all constantly interpreting the world around us and building a picture. The way we communicate this is where we start to touch on the concept of storytelling, whether it is to get somebody's attention, get children to learn an important lesson, etc. In today's fast-paced and competitive world, the ability to tell a compelling story is more important than ever. Whether you are a business owner, a salesperson, or an individual looking to make an impact, it can be a powerful tool to communicate your message, connect with others, and achieve your goals. By mastering the art of storytelling, agency owners can effectively communicate their unique value proposition, and personality, and create a memorable impression on others. 7 Types of Business Stories: Crafting Your Agency's Narrative In December 2022, Matt decided to study some popular story models. In his research, he found that, while it is a well-known and powerful storytelling framework, the hero's journey may not always align with the needs and goals of a business. Instead, he decided to focus on Booker's Seven Basic Plots and used it as the base to create a similar framework that can be adapted to businesses. His model presents things business owners deal with every day in a language they're used to using. It's a tool for clients to add to and create their own stories and provides a practical way to get people started on the journey of shaping their stories. The 7 types of business stories outlined by in this model are: The Challenge The Pivot The Catalyst Innovation Improving Experiences Changing Perceptions Growth Mindset Each serves a different purpose and can be used strategically to convey messages, inspire action, and drive change within an organization. Finding the Heart of Your Story and Discovering Your 'Why' Things are considered cliché because they ring true. However, people tend to use clichés as a crutch, forgetting to tap into what they really mean. Instead, your authentic story — your why — is the one you draw power from and drives you. It comes from your early formative years when you figured out how to live and it starts to manifest when you choose how you're going to live. When he works with clients, Matt ultimately aims to identify the heart of their story (the answer to “Why do I do this?”) and the head of the story (the practical aspects); Finding the heart can be the trickier piece, and it may take going back to your childhood to find that aha moment where something clicked about the person you would become, the values you uphold, and the reason you ended up doing what you do. Identifying these elements can help individuals gain a deeper understanding of their motivations and drive and uncover the core values and beliefs that guide their actions and decisions. Storytelling as a Bridge to Connect Teams, Clients, and Communities There is no denying the profound impact of storytelling in its diverse forms and its ability to forge deep connections with others. Once you have honed your story, the key to effectively conveying it to your audience is to first instill it within your team. You may be very intentional with your agency's story if you don't ensure everyone on your sales team knows and believes in that story. It risks being lost in translation when they seek to convey it to clients. Storytelling can be a powerful tool for building empathy and understanding and by sharing personal experiences and perspectives, agency owners can create connections with others and foster a sense of community. This can be especially important in today's fast-paced and often disconnected world, where people seek that sort of connection and recognition in others' stories.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Tom Dunlap discuss:Letting go of the old things to promote the new things. The power in relinquishing control. The two paths to scaling. Finding the right fit for your team, clients, and fees.  Key Takeaways:Having your name on the door makes you the lightning rod for problems. It is not as big of a benefit as most lawyers think. If viable for your firm, consider bringing in non-lawyer team members who can help with the non-legal aspects of running a firm. You have to find the right fit clients in the right stage in the right scope. If some people don't say ‘no' to your fees, you're charging way too little.  "You went to law school to be a lawyer. The highest and best use of your time is the billable hour and getting clients and keeping them happy. If you want to manage a law firm, you should have professionals who work for you doing it." —  Tom Dunlap Find out more about the 10 Easy-to-Execute Hacks to Unlock Your Full Potential at: https://fretzin.com/events Thank you to our Sponsors!Lawmatics: https://www.lawmatics.com/bethatlawyer/Get Staffed Up: https://getstaffedup.com/bethatlawyer/Green Cardigan Marketing: https://greencardiganmarketing.com/ Episode References: The Snowball System: How to Win More Business and Turn Clients into Raving Fans by Mo Bunnell About Tom Dunlap: Tom is the managing partner of a law firm he does not run and is the better for it.

The impact of fintech on financial advisory practices has been nothing short of transformative. The collaboration between fintech innovators and financial advisors not only drives innovation but significantly enhances the overall client experience, revolutionizing the way financial services are delivered and received. However, it is not merely about adopting technology. It's about being purposeful in adopting new technology and seeking solutions that align with the specific needs of their business. In this episode, Rusty and Robyn talk with Ryan Donovan, Senior VP of Institutional Sales, and George Svagera, Senior VP of Business Development for Enterprise at Orion. In his role, Ryan works to show registered investment advisors how Orion's technology and integrations can help them grow and improve efficiency. On the other hand, George oversees Orion's enterprise sales. He works with mainly broker-dealers, banks, and custodians in leveraging both the tech and wealth management sides. George and Ryan talk to Rusty and Robyn about disruptive trends, top tech features, and how advisors can leverage fintech to stay ahead of the curve. They highlight the impact of fintech on financial service providers and the importance of integration and seamless workflows for advisors. George and Ryan also discuss how emerging technologies change how advisors operate and deliver value. Key Takeaways [04:25] - George and Ryan's professional backgrounds and roles at Orion.

You have to be purposeful in it.

In this episode of Enterprise Sales Development podcast, we speak with Leslie Venetz, Founder and President of Sales Team Builder. As an authoritative voice in the SDR space, Leslie talks about all things sales, and more importantly all things sales at the top of the funnel. She discusses why it's important to build repeatable processes and how she trains her clients to do so. She also talks about sales cycles and where they begin for her. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why it's important to build processes that are repeatable before scaling and how Leslie teaches her clients to do this Why Leslie thinks salespeople are in the best position to deliver insights to their buyers How Leslie thinks things will change in a recessionary environment Sales cycles and when one starts for Leslie QUOTES “You owe it to your prospects to earn the right to their time, earn the right to their inbox, to the calendar, to their business, and the only way to do that, in my opinion, is to have enough of an understanding of the challenges they face.” -Leslie Venetz [05:42] “I don't think SDRs often understand exactly how well-positioned they are to make those meaningful connections.” -Leslie Venetz [14:11] “I don't think that that first touch from when they opened my email, clicked on my link is the beginning of a sales cycle. I think the sale starts when they show that intent by following up with me or it's budget season and they told me last year that August is the right time to talk. When we pivot from making deposits, keeping credibility awareness high to ‘Hey, it's time to start actively having commercial conversations,' for me, that is when a sales cycle starts.” -Leslie Venetz [35:33] “Where does branding and advertising start and stop? Where does demand gen as a function start and stop? Where does lead gen and then the actual selling. I think that we're in this very interesting time in the evolution of B2B commercial, and those lines are blurry, but they're still there. And for many companies in terms of how people get paid, it's still pretty important to have some of those lines.” -Leslie Venetz [38:38] “When I create content, it is very rare that I create content with the intent of generating leads. It is much more likely that I'm creating content with the intent of branding, of that brand consistency of being a credible source of expertise in sales.” -Leslie Venetz [41:47] TIMESTAMPS [00:00] Intro [00:25] This week's guest: Leslie Venetz [02:36] Scaling: the fly in the ointment?

In today's episode, we're bringing you the latest and greatest social media strategies and tactics to help you get more clients and add value to your marketplace. Social media isn't a distraction these days, it's the medium consumers are using to self-educate before they make a big decision, like hiring an agent. Social media platforms are the vehicles we can use to make money, and the better we get at appealing to the algorithms, the more business we can attract.  Jeff is joined by the co-leader of Ohio's number 1 sales team and our resident marketing guru, Greg Erlanger. He tells us how to build a solid marketing-based real estate business and win the opportunity to get to the kitchen table. You'll learn how to get organized, build a plan, and implement successful tactics. How do you create a cadence of providing great, valuable content that solves problems and is also infotaining to the audience? You'll find out all this and more in this episode.  You'll also learn:  How to create a good mix of education, motivation, and trust-building in your content  Why testimonials are out and what to focus on instead How to get people in your funnel and take care of them once they're there The power of tailoring your content to each social media platform   Quotes  The way the consumer receives information is what has made social media a value-add marketing tool instead of a distraction. -Greg Erlanger   Social media isn't “look at me,” it's “I see you.” -Greg Erlanger     Key Points  You can be a personality-based, prospecting-based, or marketing-based real estate agent, but whatever you choose, social media can enhance your efforts and have business chasing you instead of you chasing business.  If you're not tapping into the brand equity that you already have through the NAR, your brokerage or your team, you're missing a huge opportunity to add to your credibility. These brands have years of authority and you can lean into it to make your personal brand stronger. If you're creating graphics in Canva, don't directly export them to your personal Facebook page. Social media algorithms identify these exports as marketing materials, and they will suppress them.
