Leveraging the Power of Alliances and Licensing is covered in this podio, along with the following subjects: - How you should evaluate potential alliances? - What types of intellectual property are licensable? - Where should I start? ************************************************************************************** Strategic alliances and licensing can offer incredible benefits for business owners looking to expand their reach and capabilities. By forming partnerships with other businesses, you can tap into new markets, access additional resources, and leverage the expertise of your partners. This collaborative approach not only helps in sharing risks and costs but also opens up avenues for innovation and growth. Licensing, on the other hand, allows you to capitalize on your intellectual property by granting others the right to use it in exchange for royalties or fees. Both strategies enable you to scale your business more effectively while building valuable relationships within your industry. So, if you're looking to take your business to the next level, consider the power of alliances and licensing as key tools in your entrepreneurial arsenal. I'll be talking with Scott D. Overbeck about Leveraging the Power of Alliances and Licensing. Over the last 30 years, Scott D. Overbeck, Business Growth Expert at Seacoast Consulting Group LLC has spent most of his career growing and optimizing organizations. He has had hundreds of conversations with individuals and businesses all over the world to drive growth, increase revenues, and optimize efficiencies. He knows how to effectively leverage strategic alliances, joint ventures, collaborations, and licensing. As a result, tremendous things can happen, and businesses can be completely transformed. Quickly. Scott is surprised how few small to medium-sized businesses are taking proper advantage of Alliances and Licensing. He sees this as a huge opportunity for those who see things a little differently. https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottdoverbeck https://www.seacoastcg.com/ Every Tuesday evening on Leadership LIVE @ 8:05! - Talking Small Business, your host Andrew Frazier is joined by experienced entrepreneurs and business owners who share their secrets to success via Livestream.

Join us on episode 333 in the 11th season of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast. Our mission, as always, is to equip you with actionable, scientifically supported methods to hone social-emotional learning skills, boost productivity and promote overall well-being. This episode continues our 18-week self-leadership series informed by Grant Bosnick's proven strategies. In this installment, we turn our attention to the crucial role of expectations in our lives. Starting off the discussion in the engaging world of Grant Bosnick's book, we dissect the meaning and importance of expectations. We then explore the crucial aspects of emotion regulation, persuasive traits, effective time management, and the vast concept of change. This episode revisits key moments from our previous chapters, ranging from the neuroscience of goals to the significance of hydration on brain performance, AHA moments, creative insights, and more. The highlight of the episode is an in-depth exploration of the science of expectations, underpinned by Grant Bosnick and David Robson's book, 'The Expectation Effect.' Here, we probe the profound influence of positive and negative expectations on our daily life, mindset, goal achievement, and even health. Inspired by teachings from luminary mentors like Bob Proctor, this illuminating exploration of expectations is designed to leave you with a fresh perspective. Stories from an unforgettable seminar 20 years ago bring to life the immense power of expectations. Understanding the neuroscience connections, we further explore dopamine and its correlation with our level of expectations. Practical tips to apply these psychological insights in day-to-day life are provided as we take you on an intellectual journey from theory to practice. Throughout the episode, you will discover how to better regulate your expectations to boost your happiness, productivity, and confidence. This intellectual journey will equip you with the tools to tap into the power of expectation and unlock a better version of yourself. Expect the best and join us to uncover the enormous potential within you. Stay tuned for our next episode, 'The Neuroscience of Emotion Regulation', as we continue our intellectual journey. Welcome back to SEASON 11 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 5 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to help us to APPLY this research in our daily lives. On today's episode #333 we continue with our 18-Week Self-Leadership Series based on Grant Bosnick's “Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership: A Bite Size Approach Using Psychology and Neuroscience” that we first dove into with our interview on EP #321[i] the end of January.  The goal was that each week, we focused on learning something new, (from Grant's book) that builds off the prior week, to help take us to greater heights in 2024. Today we cover Chapter 8, “The Neuroscience of Expectations” and l look at what Grant Bosnick covers on this topic, as well as a deeper dive into David Robson's book, The Expectation Effect.   We will cover:  ✔  What is the meaning and importance of expectations? ✔  An unforgettable moment when Andrea first encountered the power behind our expectations.  ✔  We will explore the science of expectations to boost your happiness, productivity, and confidence. ✔  3 TIPS for applying The Neuroscience of Expectation to your daily life. ✔  Ideas to trouble-shoot applying this concept, along with belief, to achieve your goals and dreams.  I did need to take a short break from writing and recording since we last covered this book, the end of March, with new responsibilities in my work world. I've got my footing now, and missed researching, recording, and producing these episodes. The benefits that I personally receive from gathering this information, and sharing with it you, the listener, wherever you might be tuning in around the world, helps me in many different ways, but mostly, this work keeps me thinking, and making connections, neural connections, which we all know is important for cognition and learning. I did appreciate the notes from listeners of past episodes they have found helpful, and will continue to provide my best work here. We will resume the final 5 chapters of Grant's book, based on Self-Leadership strategies, covering the topic of expectations today, then emotion regulation, persuade and influence, time management and ending the series with change. Just a reminder that we left off with Chapter 7 on “AHA Moments and Creative Insight.[ii]” There is great power and immense self-awareness that comes along with mapping out a plan designed specifically for YOU and I do encourage everyone to take Grant Bosnick's Leadership Self-Assessment[iii] so you can see the areas for you that score a high, medium or low level of importance for you to focus on this year. REVIEW Chapters 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 Before we cover Chapter 8 today on Expectations, let's review where we left off, since this is a good reminder for me, to make the connections from these prior episodes. It's here I'm hoping we will take the information we are learning, (from Grant Bosnick's book) connect the dots to form knowledge and then apply this knowledge to our daily life. This is where we go from theory to practice with this podcast and it's the application of what we are learning that contains the magic. REFLECT Back to Chapter 2 on The Neuroscience of Goals (and Kurt Lewin's Force Field Theory): What are we doing to gain the momentum needed to reach NEW and HEIGHTENED levels of performance this year? How are we improving our mental and physical health to gain the momentum we talked about in this chapter? Just the fact that you are here listening to this episode, and I'm writing it, is a good indication we are all building this skill. What have you noticed with the momentum you've built with your goals this year? Are you on track? How can you narrow your focus more? REFLECT Back to Chapter 3 on The Neuroscience of Inspiration: How are we using people or places that inspire us, to take our results to greater heights? Think about this as it relates to our physical and mental health. What else can we all do to take more action in this area? I recently connected with someone who caught my attention over 20 years ago, when I worked with athletes at ASU. I remember sitting in front of this one athlete, and just knew he was going somewhere. We are working on the details to have him on the podcast right now, but stay tuned for a future episode on “Diving into the Mindset of a D1 College Athlete, Turned Pro” with Nigerian-American professional basketball player, Ike Diogu. Who are what is inspiring you these days? REFLECT Back to Chapter 4 on The Neuroscience of Mindfulness: Think about where we are in our Mindfulness Journey? Mindfulness, and breathing was listed often in Chapter 4 of Grant Bosnick's book.  How is mindfulness helping us with our physical health? What's interesting to me with this topic, is that the more I continue to study, and look to improve my own areas of weakness (right now I'm looking at how to optimize sleep which is currently my weakest link) and am diving deep into this topic with Dr. Matthew Walker's most recent 6 PART podcast series with Dr. Andrew Huberman.[iv] Mindfulness is a topic that Dr. Walker lists as integral for improving sleep. I'm curious how you are implementing this skill to improve daily results. REFLECT Back to Chapter 5 on The Neuroscience Behind Peak Performance: How are we practicing “getting into our flow?” When do we notice we are in flow the most?  Is it during physical exercise, or meditation? Are we practicing this state to gain 5x more productivity this year? This is a hard one, as getting into this flow state requires practice for me. A month and a half away from this podcast, really did take me out of my flow state here. After recording an interview, and editing, I made many mistakes, or flat out forgot what to do next on the production side. I was rusty, and not in flow. I'd been producing episodes for 5 years, without taking a break, and this break revealed that the skills I'd developed need to be practiced. Use them, or lose them type of idea. This is exactly how my daughters explain what happens to them when they take time away from their sport with an injury. I learned that when we lose this flow, the best way to get it back is to get back to work, as best as we can. One step at a time. What about you? How are you using flow in your daily life? REFLECT BACK to Chapter 6 on The Science Behind our Physical Health: Where we narrowed our focus from a wide and complex field, to something we can implement immediately with “The Hydrated Brain for Improving Our Cognitive Performance.” Midway through the year, I'm thinking “How am I keeping my brain hydrated?” Do I know how much water I'm drinking every day? This is something I've put more emphasis on recently, as we have now introduced an Infrared Sauna to our daily routine, and this requires more water to help eliminate toxins. They recommend drinking 20 ounces of water before using the sauna, since sweating can cause dehydration, and drinking at least a liter (or four 8 ounce glasses of water) afterwards. I did think it was interesting that one of the products I've also been wearing since our interview last year with Dmitri Leonov, who taught us about the Taopatch[v] nanotechnology that also requires an increase in water intake to eliminate toxins. Do you know about how much water you are drinking every day? REFLECT BACK to Chapter 7 on “AHA Moments, Creative Insight and The Brain” where we looked at the book, The Eureka Factor: AHA Moments, Creative Insight and the Brain by John Kounios and Mark Beeman. They wrote this book to “explain how these Eureka experiences happen—and how to have more of them to enrich our lives and empower personal and professional success.” (The Eureka Factor).  We also went back to PART 4 of The Silva Method[vi] on “Improving Creativity and Innovation in our Schools, Sports and Modern Workplaces” where we tapped into (once again) to Dr. Andrew Huberman's research on creativity here, thinking about how we can have more insight to solve problems in our personal and work lives. It's definitely a balancing act, working on implementing ALL of these strategies for an improved 2024. Some of these I've got the hang of, and others (like sleep) are continual works of progress for me. For Today, EPISODE #333, we are moving on to Chapter 8, covering “The Neuroscience Behind Expectations” where we will dive into a topic that I mark as high importance in my life, right up with breathing. When I took my self-assessment, the topic of expectations showed up as low priority for me to focus on this year. Not because it's not important to me, but because I've already made this topic of high importance. Expectations came out for me in the RED category, with a low score of 8% along with goals and time management, that I also put high importance with on a daily basis.  If you've taken the self-assessment, look to see if Expectations are of a low, medium or high priority for you to focus on this year. Before looking at Grant Bosnick's thoughts about the topic of expectations, where he begins chapter 8 by asking us “what did you expect?” I had to do some research first, to see what is already out in the world, and there was a lot out there, on the science behind expectations. I first looked at the definition. What does it mean when someone has expectations? Collins Dictionary defined this term to mean “your strong hopes or beliefs that something will happen or that you will get something that you want.”[vii] When I typed “expectations” into Pubmed.gov (a free database of more than 37 million research articles) I saw over 95,000 entries for how expectations can help a person to improve their health and behavioral outcomes, and noticed topics like “unmet expectations[viii]” or even “how expectations modulate pain.”[ix] Before going down the rabbit hole looking to understand the science behind expectations, I found a book called The Expectation Effect: How Your Mindset Can Change Your World[x] by David Robson that I highly recommend. He covers a “journey through cutting-edge science of how our mindset shapes every facet of our lives, revealing how your brain holds the keys to unlocking a better version of you.” It was in the first few pages of Robson's Expectation Effect where I began to piece together past podcast episodes where we've talked about how “expectation hooks us up to what we want.” I saw the word “expectation” then BOOM, I could hear my mentor, Bob Proctor talking about this exact topic, back in the late 1990s. Who knew there was a science to this! We will get there, but here's what I remembered learning on this topic, 20 years ago. When Proctor talked about the importance of “expecting” what it is that we want, I remember highlighting it at the top of my notebook with an ORANGE highlighter, and never thought I would years later share these notes with anyone, (sorry they aren't neater) but look what I wrote. “Expectation hooks you up to what you want, and brings it to you.” Then further down the page, wrote “you can be hooked up to what you want (you've read Think and Grow Rich a billion times, and even listened to our 6 PART Series Think and Grow Rich Series,[xi] and you know EXACTLY what you want) but you DON'T EXPECT to ever get it, for some reason, that only you would be aware of. If you don't expect it, you won't bring it to you. I remember Proctor explaining this concept with goals, and he said it could also work with something we expect that we don't want, like a winter cold when we say something like, “Oh, I usually get a cold right before Thanksgiving, so let's not meet up until after this time.” Have you ever had someone tell you they were expecting to become ill? My mind goes straight back to the orange highlighter, and how I knew it was important to highlight that what we “expect” to happen, is brought right to us. Robson writes in his book that: Now I really did believe in these concepts I learned back in those seminar days, (because I saw first-hand how many people achieved results from this way of thinking) but I'm sure many others thought these ideas were superstitious or something. Fast forward 20 years, and now, I see this exact concept written in the 2022 book by David Robson, called The Expectation Effect, illustrating that what scientists are learning about the connections between the human brain and performance, are nothing short of amazing! Many of us have heard of these concepts, we might have even written them down, and highlighted them in orange, but now, science reveals something new about how our brain responds to the things we “expect” to happen. David Robson shows us in his book exactly “how those beliefs, in themselves, shape your health and well-being in profound ways, and that learning to reset our expectations (about these issues) can have truly remarkable effects on our health, happiness and productivity.” (David Robson, The Expectation Effect). So, I'm reading David Robson's book, excited to make a scientific connection to the word I highlighted in ORANGE in those seminar days, and here I come across the author warning us about New Age self-help books, like Rhonda Byrne's The Secret, that Bob Proctor starred in, saying these concepts to be pseudoscience. I will say that many people misunderstand The Secret and Proctor[xii] himself said “You can't just THINK and GROW RICH, you've got to DO SOMETHING with those thoughts.” So with an open mind, let's see what Grant Bosnick has to say about The Neuroscience of Expectations. I did mention that Grant opens up chapter 8 by saying “What did you expect?” and he gives examples in the beginning of this chapter ways that expectations are created in our minds whether it's with an expensive glass of wine we taste, that we “expect” to taste good based on its price, or even the credibility that we “expect” from doctors verses the doctor's assistant. What Grant Bosnich Says About The Science of Expectations: Grants explains that “in neuroscience, dopamine is the neurochemical in our brain that makes us feel good and is associated with feelings of euphoria, bliss, motivation, concentration and reward. If we meet our expectations, then it generates a slight increase in dopamine, and a slight reward response. If we exceed our expectations, it generates a strong increase in dopamine, and a strong reward response. And if our expectations are unmet, it generates a large drop in dopamine, and a strong threat response.” (Chapter 8, Grant Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 84/85). Grant explains that when our expectations are met or exceeded, this “increases our dopamine levels, which leads to increased happiness and well-being, which helps maximize our performance by setting up the conditions of flow and insight, which leads to more productivity and increased confidence.” (Chapter 8, Grant Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 84/85). But here's the kicker! Grant shares that “if our expectations are not met, (however) that it dramatically decreases our dopamine levels, we feel disappointment and stress, resulting in poor performance and decreased confidence.” (Chapter 8, Grant Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 84/85). Grant asks us some questions around what we expect of ourselves and others, and it's here that I thought about how I have high expectations for myself, and the goals I'm working on, but I've noticed that in order to avoid disappointment, I work on not having expectations of others. Except of when I go to the doctor for something important, I except that he will look after whatever it is that I'm there for to the best of their ability. There is this one doctor that I drive over an hour to see him, because his services exceeded my expectations. His office experience was not the best, but when I get to see him, I have a high level of care, that I expect, and I'll look past the poor experience in his offices, to get to the high level of care when I reach him. Grant addresses this by saying that we can influence our own, and other people's expectations by “delivering higher than expected” (Chapter 8, Grant Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 87) which is exactly what happened to me with that doctor. Grant explains the importance of “setting the expectation low, then delivering high” to avoid disappointment. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION To review and conclude this week's episode #333 on Chapter 8 on “The Neuroscience of Expectations” DID YOU KNOW: That when our expectations are met or exceeded, this “increases our dopamine levels, which leads to increased happiness and well-being, which helps maximize our performance by setting up the conditions of flow and insight, which leads to more productivity and increased confidence?” (Chapter 8, Grant Bosnick) Conversely, did you know that “if our expectations are not met, that it dramatically decreases our dopamine levels, we feel disappointment and stress, resulting in poor performance and decreased confidence?” (Chapter 8, Grant Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 84/85). I go right back to Grant's opening statement “What did you expect” and then my ORANGE highlighted notes from 20 years ago where I learned that “expectation hooks us up to what we want.” HOW TO USE THE NEUROSCIENCE OF EXPECTATIONS IN OUR DAILY LIFE: KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I'M EXPECTING (of myself and others): Understanding the science, helps me to keep my expectations tied to myself, and not others, to avoid disappointment and stress.  I expect to achieve my goals, (by putting in the necessary work) keep myself in good health (physical and mental) and will not just THINK about these expectations, but will do the hard work, take the action necessary to achieve them. This way, I'm not just “thinking” of what I expect to occur, I'm actually doing something with those thoughts, like the quote from Bob Proctor from the beginning of this episode. If I'm ever feeling “disappointed” with something in my life, a good question to ask is “what did you expect?” and see if I can backtrack to my thoughts. Was I using the science to flood my brain with dopamine, (with something within my control-that I could take action towards) or not. USE A POSITIVE EXPECTATION TO BUILD RESILIENCE FOR A HEALTHIER VERSION OF ME: Understanding the science behind our expectations, and especially David Robson's work, where I learned that “people with a more positive attitude towards their later years are less likely to develop hearing loss, frailty, and illness—and even Alzheimer's disease—than people who associate aging with senility and disability” (David Robson, The Expectation Effect) marks a strong case for expecting exceptional mental and physical health in the future. Again, it goes without saying that we can't just “think” ourselves into good health. We need to do the work here in order to expect results to occur. CONTINUE TO EXPECT GOOD THINGS (for myself and others) AND DON'T WORRY ABOUT SUPERSTITIONS LIKE CREATING MY OWN LUCKY CHARM. Knowing that “expectations and beliefs can influence—indeed are already influencing your life in many other surprising and powerful ways. (David Robson, The Expectation Effect) makes me believe in some of the rituals I've heard of over the years, like lucky charms. I learned from David Robson's The Expectation Effect, that “superstitions and rituals can boost perseverance and performance across a whole range of cognitive tasks, and (that) the advantages are often considerable.” (Page 198, The Expectation Effect). Whether you are a professional athlete, singer, public speaker, or someone like me who just wants improved results in your life, there is a science to having a lucky charm, or something that brings you the promise of success, to help you to create a feeling of control during high stress. Don't dismiss the power of a lucky rock with a goal written on it, or whatever it is that holds significance to you with your future goals, or something that has meaning to you, that you expect to occur in your future. FINAL THOUGHTS ON OUR EXPECTATIONS: Some final thoughts, before closing out this episode, when we are working on our expectations, it's highly important to be honest with whether you believe them to be possible, or not. This is an important part of this. David Robson mentioned in his book, The Expectation Effect that: THINK ABOUT HOW YOU RESPOND TO DIFFICULT LIFE CHALLENGES: Imagine yourself going for a new position at work, and you are talking to your close family members about where you are in the interview process. They say to you “this sounds good, it looks like you are in the lead for this new position” and you reply “I'll let know IF I get the job.” How you speak about your expectations (or as Robson said “our responses to difficult situations” (internally in your mind), or out loud to others, is extremely important. Keeping brain science in mind, the best way to talk about your expectations is with certainty and our reply with this brain science in mind could be along the lines of “I'll let you know WHEN I get the new position” to keep the dopamine flowing to your brain. This response will help you to “feel good (and is associated) with feelings of euphoria, bliss, motivation, concentration and reward.” (Grant Bosnick). If for some reason, you don't believe what you are expecting, or that the leap might be too far of a jump for you, you will feel what's called cognitive dissonance, and you'll need to do more internal work to get yourself to the place where you can think “truth rather than appearances”[xiii] and speak what you expect out loud, (or think it internally) and feel the alignment of this expectation in your life. Only then will we get to this place where our expectations and beliefs can influence our life in many astonishing and powerful ways, leaving us mind-blown by our own potential for personal change. We'll see you next episode for The Neuroscience of Emotion Regulation.  REVIEW In this 18-week Series that we began in the beginning of February, (after I was inspired to cover Grant's book after our interview the end of January) we are covering: ✔ Powerful tactics from this Grant Bosnick's award-winning book that illustrates how change and achievement are truly achievable both from internal ('inside out') and external ('outside in') perspectives. ✔Listeners will grasp the immense power of self-leadership and its transformative effect on personal growth and success by applying the neuroscience Grant has uncovered in each chapter. ✔Explore practical strategies for habit formation and the impact of a self-assessment system. ✔Gain insights from Grant's expert advice on maintaining a balance between strengths and weaknesses while chasing after your goals. ✔Embark on an intellectual journey that has the power to elevate personal achievement and self-awareness to uncharted levels while we map out our journey over this 18-week course.

Pricing is our hot topic today.  We'll take a look at the factors causing price reductions, what to do from a listing agent's perspective as well as when you're representing a buyer.  We'll dive into some price reduction scripts and give you the confidence you need to navigate this changing market. Welcome back to America's #1 Daily Podcast, featuring America's #1 Real Estate Coaches and Top EXP Realty Sponsors in the World, Tim and Julie Harris.

Instant FREE Access Now: YES, Enroll Me NOW In Premier Coaching https://members.timandjulieharris.com Let's take a look at what's happening to prices right now.  (And NO, the market is not crashing, it's just normalizing!) Facts: Nationwide, 1 in every 15 listings had a price reduction in the last 30 days.  That's about 6.5% of active listings in the country, however, some markets have seen 50% of active listings get a price reduction in the past 30 days. FREE Meet-Up In Your Area : Please RSVP now for the Tim and Julie Live Meetup near you – a FREE, fun, and casual event to kickstart your 2024 with motivation and focus! Gain invaluable insights, connect with industry leaders, and make 2024 YOUR BEST YEAR EVER. Secure your spot at https://app.getriver.io/tim-and-julie. Don't miss out on inspiration, expertise, and networking opportunities. Let's do this!  The five metro areas with the highest percentage of listings with price cuts were Wenatchee-East Wenatchee, Washington (53%); Idaho Falls, Idaho (52%); Carson City, Nevada (52%); Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, Texas (52%); and Waco, Texas (51%).   This is all happening at the same time that prices are still up by at least 4% this year, and are expected to end up averaging about 5% by year's end.  This figure shows you that we are normalizing, not crashing.  We are still suffering from a lack of supply.   REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris In a 'balanced', or more 'normal' market, 30% of listings have at least one price reduction prior to selling. Remember this:  At $52 Trillion, The total value of homes in the US is up 49% since before the pandemic.  49%!  So these price adjustments won't be catastrophic to most sellers.  We're a very long way away from short sales, so don't go thinking the sky is falling. What should you do when you're the listing agent?  You can price it to sit, or you can price it to sell.  The average mortgage payment on a $400,000 home is now over $3000/month with taxes and insurance.  That's nearly double what it was a year ago.  Any buyer still looking is serious, motivated, qualified, and scarce!

As promised, here is the discount link for the EXPIRED LISTING LEADS: https://www.redx.com/affiliate/tim-and-julie-harris/?aff_code=670699 Pricing your listings accurately in the first place will save you from having to have price reduction conversations later. (Though we'll give you price reduction scripts later this week and tons of them in Premier Coaching).   First, It's important to STOP doing any (or all) of the following: -Stop: Taking the last best comparable, adding 5 to 10%, and expecting to sell that listing quickly and for even more than the asking price.  There are random examples of this but they are becoming few and far between.  Stop rolling the dice and hoping for a bidding war.

Does it seem like everything is harder right now?  Correct these easy-to-remedy common mistakes and unlock your momentum.  There are deals everywhere, but you have to be more disciplined, more skilled, and more savvy to find them now that the market has shifted away from FOMO.  The good news is that once you correct the course, you can easily get back into your groove.

Instant FREE Access Now: YES, Enroll Me NOW In Premier Coaching https://members.timandjulieharris.com Top 6 MISTAKES (and how to fix them ASAP!)  #1.     Playing the waiting game.  Waiting for the market to crash, waiting for interest rates to come down, waiting for inventory.  Waiting doesn't get transactions into your pipeline, nor does it help your clients and prospects achieve their goals.   You must take control of your day, week, month, quarter, and year to defeat the waiting game!

Don't miss out on inspiration, expertise, and networking opportunities. Let's do this!  Action Steps: -Accept the fact that there are zero indicators that the market is going to crash.  Zero.  While there are some price ranges in some markets, this year is set to close with between 5 and 9% increase in home values.  Low inventory, stable demand, lots of new construction,  and rising prices are not indicators of a housing crash.  If any of this changes, we'll let you know. -Interest rates will eventually get lower, but are not likely to go below 5.5% to 6.5% maybe even for the rest of your career.  Stop wishing for the old market and embrace the new market.   Ready to become an EXPIRED Listing Agent? As promised, here is the discount link for the EXPIRED LISTING LEADS: https://www.redx.com/affiliate/tim-and-julie-harris/?aff_code=670699 -Learn about several ways to achieve a lower rate and lower payment.  Refer to last week's podcast about 3 ways to achieve lower mortgage interest rates.  Learn about what the builders are doing; many new home loans are closing in the mid-5 % range right now. Take action to find out where in your market this is happening! #2:     Expecting your buyers to send you what they want to look at versus finding the right homes for them yourself!   Action Steps: REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris -Get and use the Buyer Presentation, which drills down on specifically what your buyer clients desire in their next home.  What's a deal maker and what's a deal killer? Are both people on the same page if you're working with a couple?  Can you handle objections like: 'I want to wait for rates to come down, or prices, or both?'   -Once you know what they need, that they are motivated and qualified, it's YOUR JOB to find them the right home.  Think out of the box! Refer to our podcast series about how to find inventory.  Consider changing the type of property, and the price range (sometimes going down- market can find alternatives), expanding the geographic search, or looking at new construction.  

It's a fact.  Buyer-side commissions are no longer a guarantee, no longer an entitlement.  You can't just assume you'll be receiving X% on every transaction.  Though this seems like a whole new stress-inducing worry for many of you, the fact is that commissions have never been a set amount, just an expectation or a tradition in many markets.

Don't miss out on inspiration, expertise, and networking opportunities. Let's do this! This brings us to your burning question:  How do you provide overwhelming VALUE to your buyer clients?  How can you become more comfortable asking for an exclusive buyer agreement and along with it an expectation to be paid for your hard work? Top 5 Ways to Provide Overwhelming Value to Buyer Clients Fact:  If you're not doing anything for them that they can't do on their own, why would they hire you in the first place, much less pay your fee?   Goal:  Provide such overwhelming value that you're all they're talking about to their friends! Repeat, referral, lather, rinse and repeat. REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris 1.     PRESENT to your buyer clients in the same professional manner that you do a listing client.  Use our Buyer Presentation where you outline exactly what the buying process is, what your role is, what the buyer's role is, and how you'll be working together to accomplish their goals.  More and more, you'll start to compete for buyer business in a similar way you do for listings now! 2.     FIND them their dream home.  One of the top concerns for buyers as well as agents right now is the historic lack of inventory.  It's YOUR job, not theirs to find the right home for their needs.   Stop waiting for them to send you a link to the house they want to see next.  Drill down on their needs and get out there and find it! Ready to become an EXPIRED Listing Agent? As promised, here is the discount link for the EXPIRED LISTING LEADS: https://www.redx.com/affiliate/tim-and-julie-harris/?aff_code=670699 -Be more creative in your MLS searches.  Change the search area, change the TYPE of home, or find an equally great school district to look in that has more inventory.  Remove square footage as a requirement, look for a 3 bedroom with a loft instead of only 4 bedrooms, for example. -Refer to our podcast series about how to find inventory that is NOT in your MLS. 3.     KNOW and PRESENT solutions to get a better-than-average mortgage interest rate.  You don't have to know as much as your competent mortgage lender does, but you should be able to competently discuss: 2-1 Buy Downs, Adjustable Rates, and how to pay points to lock in a lower rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage. 

Real estate agents and brokers... if you could choose where your next listing would come from, wouldn't you always answer, "a repeat or referral client"?  Of course, you would.  Why? They're easier to work with, they already trust you, you're probably not going to compete for their business and they are less likely to throw objections at you! Also, they don't ask you to cut your commission or shoot them a kickback.

Many surveys have shown that when someone is making a decision about who they will hire to provide a service, they first ask: Whom do I already know?  (87% of the time), if they don't know anyone, they then ask a trusted friend or advisor who THEY know (6% of the time), and only after those two questions are exhausted do they turn to an advertisement or marketing piece.   FREE Meet-Up In Your Area : Please RSVP now for the Tim and Julie Live Meetup near you – a FREE, fun, and casual event to kickstart your 2024 with motivation and focus! Gain invaluable insights, connect with industry leaders, and make 2024 YOUR BEST YEAR EVER. Secure your spot at https://app.getriver.io/tim-and-julie. Don't miss out on inspiration, expertise, and networking opportunities. Let's do this! Your job is to be the answer 93% of the time so you don't have to waste money trying to be the answer 6% of the time! This means perfecting three things immediately: 1.  Have an organized database with names, numbers, email addresses, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram and other support information on each person.  You don't need a fancy CRM, use KV Core for example.  CALL each person to update the rest of their profile.  It's a great excuse to make that first (or next) contact! Use your F-O-R-D conversation outline to make these calls fruitful.  (Family/Occupation/Recreation/Dreams) REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris 2.  Speak with all of your contacts regularly.  That means face-to-face, voice-to-voice, 'real' contacts.  A contact is a conversation with a decision-making adult about real estate.  Refer to our coaching and podcasts about the 'FORD' script.  For example, if you have 200 people in your database and you speak with 10 per day on work days, you can actually speak to 100% of your list every single month. What would THAT do to your repeat and referral business?  If 10 is too many, even making 5 contacts per day will have you speaking with 100% of your list every sixty days. 3.  EXPAND your Center of Influence systematically.  10% of the number of people in your database will do business with you or refer business to you every year, assuming you communicate with them.  If your database is 100 people strong, you'll have 10 transactions yearly from them.  200 equals 20 transactions, and so forth.   Remember that in order for this to be a predictable, duplicatable source of business, you must make MORE contact, more frequently to achieve that flow of leads.  Refer to our 12-Month Center of Influence Plan in Premier Coaching to further systematize.

Welcome Back! Myth:  You have to be a real people person to be successful in real estate.  You've got to be outgoing, gregarious, and socially confident to be great at this. Fact:  Some of the most successful top-producing agents and brokers in the country are self-proclaimed introverts.

Don't miss out on inspiration, expertise, and networking opportunities. Let's do this! What would your plans be?  If your plans are focused on being around other people, you're likely a natural extrovert.  If your plans are to finish that book you've been working on and snuggle into your favorite reading chair, you're probably a natural introvert. Would it surprise you to know that all of these famous and successful people are introverts?  Emma Watson, Bill Gates, Christina Aguilera, Warren Buffet, Michael Jordan, Albert Einstein, Gwyneth Paltro, Harrison Ford, and Steven Speilberg. REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris Introverts can be very powerful speakers, salespeople, entertainers, entrepreneurs, actors, and leaders of all sorts.    So how do they do it?  Is there some super secret strategy that you can learn and deploy? Susan Cain, writer of the book: 'Quiet: The Power of Introverts In A World That Can't Stop Talking', was chosen as one of the top TED talks ever.  According to her, no one is 100% introverted or extroverted.  Many people are a mix but probably tend strongly toward one of the other.   Society has long rewarded the more outgoing, attention-grabbing types of personalities and tended to ostracize introverts.  Cain says it's ok and even beneficial to be yourself, to not try to force yourself into becoming the quintessential 'Driver Personality' if that is not you.   How many agents have become messed up in their heads because they 'weren't a driver or an expressive' on the overly used and sometimes abused DISC personality test? AgentDISC.com will give you a free assessment so you can learn more about yourself and your own tendencies, but remember, this is a guide, not a diagnosis. You can be successful, keeping your innate personality intact, but learning and internalizing some specific strategies.  Strategies That Will Change Your Life 1.    Have confidence in the person you are.  2.     Use scripts that don't sound like scripts.   3.     Recharge your mental, emotional, and spiritual batteries every day.  4.     Accept and embrace the fact that you will hear 'no' more than you hear 'yes', and that 'no' is not 'never', it's just 'not now'.  S 5.     Act as if you're an extravert without losing yourself. 

How do you know if you're an introvert or an extrovert?  The simple test is to ask yourself: when you're around a lot of people (say at a party or a real estate event), do you go home after the party and feel like your battery has been charged or do you feel drained? If the answer is charged up, you're an extrovert.  If you're drained, you're an introvert.  Neither is better or worse, but each has its strengths and weaknesses, especially in business.

Instant FREE Access Now: YES, Enroll Me NOW In Premier Coaching https://members.timandjulieharris.com On today's podcast, we're talking about extroverts and how to thrive in real estate. Extraverts come in many varieties, but primarily they are either Amiable or Influencer types.  FREE Meet-Up In Your Area : Please RSVP now for the Tim and Julie Live Meetup near you – a FREE, fun, and casual event to kickstart your 2024 with motivation and focus! Gain invaluable insights, connect with industry leaders, and make 2024 YOUR BEST YEAR EVER. Secure your spot at https://app.getriver.io/tim-and-julie. Don't miss out on inspiration, expertise, and networking opportunities. Let's do this! Amiable extroverts are very family and friend-oriented, caregiving and nurturing.  They are 'people' people.  They are often teachers, nurses, customer service, working in the hospitality industry or another similar, people-oriented field. The more Influencer types of Extroverts are also people-oriented but tend to put the focus on themselves. They're the 'life of the party', the 'entertainer', the leader of their friend group, and they tend to have LOTS of friends. 1.     Extroverts have an advantage in real estate, because their Sphere of Influence is vast. They love to have friends, they love to entertain and they love to be a connector of people.  If that's you, your secret power is to harness your relationships, communicate regularly, talk about real estate, and ask for business. 2.     Extroverts are naturally confident.  Be wary of this because being overly confident can be perceived as arrogance.  Prospects can be turned off to you because they'll think you just assume they'll work with you. After all, you're friends.  Be just as professional with friends as you are with people who don't already know, love and trust you. 3.     Extroverts tend to talk a lot.  Let your client talk more than you do and listen to what they're saying.  Take notes so you remember what's most important to them.  Train yourself to be fascinated by them.   4.     Don't make it all about you all the time.  Remove the words I, me, my, and mine from your speech so your ego is in check.  Lead with your expertise, professionalism, attention to detail, and leadership rather than relying solely on your personality.

Whichever is more comfortable for your client, but you should work to have both. 2. When should you ask? The best time to ask is right after a successful closing, winning in a bidding war, negotiating a successful inspection resolution or any other time you're feeling well-earned client love. One technique we used was to take a simple survey after closing, asking what they liked best about working with us, what we could perhaps improve upon and thanking them for their business.  Be specific with your gratitude, mentioning how much you loved working with them and why. LISTING LEADS! As promised, here is the REDX discount link for the EXPIRED LISTING LEADS: https://www.redx.com/affiliate/tim-and-julie-harris/ At the end of the survey, it asked who they knew who could use our help buying or selling, and asked permission to use their words of praise as a testimonial. If you missed them at the closing table, or you're in a state that doesn't close that way, email or text them the same survey, or pop by after they've moved into their new place.  It's a great excuse to follow up and solidify your relationship going forward.   REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris 3. When you're asking for a written testimonial, include a link to your profile on the website where you'd like them to share their review.  If the instructions to post on an individual site are too complicated or time-consuming, have your client send their review directly to you instead. Include a sample testimonial, and ask them to be specific about why they chose to work with you.  Start with your own website and your Facebook business page.

Consistent, regular, and cohesive posting is more effective.   What are you trying to accomplish with your social media?  -Lead Generation -Community Engagement  -Expand your Center of Influence -Engage online to engage ‘IRL' (in real life).

D) Engage with your followers consistently. Learn about each media platform and how it operates.  On Twitter and Instagram, for example, learn how to use hashtags so you can get your content to reach further.  Hashtags reach people who are not just following you specifically but following a trend or a mutual interest.  E) Improve your communication skills both In Real life and on Social. *TED Talks is full of great talks on communication.  Some of our favorites: -“The Art of Paying Attention” by Wendy MacNaughton -“10 Ways to have a better conversation” by Celeste Headlee Don't convince yourself that social media is a lead-generation spoke.  It's for supporting your proactive lead generation, nurturing your relationships, and expanding your reach.

Note #1: when you're filming any property, your listing, or someone else's, be certain you have written permission to film!   Note #2: Each video must have something of value plus a call to action.  A call to action, or a CTA is where you ask the viewer to DO something.  Call you, text you, comment below, and ask questions, or schedule an appointment. Note #3:  You don't have to go out and get a bunch of equipment.  Use your iPhone videos or iMovie to get started.  DONE is better than perfect, so don't use analysis paralysis as your excuse to procrastinate.   REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris Top 8 YouTube Realtor Videos That Generate: 1.     Market Updates.  These need to be done every month and could be done weekly.  Break down price ranges, and zip codes and report the highest sales in specific areas.  The average list-to-sell price ratio, days on the market, and trends.  This information can be found in the email reports your Board of Realtors® sends to you every month! (Do you open those? Nice charts and graphs you can include in your video description!) 2.     Video walkthroughs of your current listings and coming soon listings. This is great for generating leads for you AND creates obvious value for your sellers. Video is vastly superior to a slide show.  Slide shows are outdated.  If you are currently listless, ask your broker which listings need more marketing or are getting fewer showings.  Ready to become an EXPIRED Listing Agent?
