288: Are You Distracted or Actually Working?


Listen Later

Are you actually working… or just feeling busy? 😬

There are so many things in real estate that make you feel productive but don’t actually lead to making money. A new logo? A fresh website? A perfectly curated Instagram feed? They might help, but if your bank account is running low, these probably aren’t the things you should be focusing on.

In this episode, we’re getting real about what distractions are stealing your time, what’s actually making you money, and how to stay focused on the right things.

We’re covering:

  • The #1 real estate time waster (spoiler: it’s social media)

  • How to tell if an activity is actually income-producing

  • Why some agents stay “busy” but never get closings

  • What’s really working for agents in our community

  • The best (and easiest) ways to track your results

If you’ve ever wondered, Should I even be spending time on this?—this episode is for you. Let’s get rid of the distractions and start working smarter!
