"If you think you aren't ready, do it anyway." That's what a 12-year-old entrepreneur taught us at Hatch Summit in Fargo, North Dakota. The summit was called "Built Different," and it was hosted by our mentor Erik Hatch. He's appeared on the pod before; check out episode 47 to refresh your memory. We'd go back in a heartbeat and today we'll tell you why. 

 Main Topics:

• How environment shapes mindset and expands what feels possible
• Why consistent practice and preparation matter
• The role of authenticity and niche focus in social media success
• Why AI should support growth, not replace people
• Inspiring stories of perseverance, fundraising, and bold action
• The importance of community, mentorship, and high-achieving peers
• Practical ways to turn summit lessons into real-world action

Key takeaway: the right environment can dramatically raise your ceiling. Seek spaces that challenge you to think bigger, act bolder, and keep growing.

• Why comparison is one of the biggest threats to long-term success
• The hidden cost of chasing rankings and recognition

Every time the market changes, agents start searching for the next big solution. But after decades in the business and multiple market cycles, we've learned that success rarely comes from chasing trends—it comes from mastering the fundamentals.

In this episode, we break down the most common mistakes agents make during shifting markets and discuss the habits that consistently create long-term success.

In this episode:

• Why waiting for the market to "return to normal" is a costly mistake
• The danger of consuming more content than you create
• How strong relationships outperform market conditions
• Why chasing every new lead source, CRM, or marketing trend can hurt your business
• The role fear plays in decision-making
• Why most consumers don't care about industry drama
• The habits that still matter five years from now

Key takeaway:

Markets change. Technology changes. Headlines change.

The agents who thrive are the ones who stay focused on relationships, consistency, reputation, and taking action while everyone else is distracted.

Work the fundamentals. Build trust. Keep moving forward.

In this episode, Brad, Andrea, and PT tackle one of the most controversial topics in real estate: agent attraction and revenue share.

They discuss why “rev share” has become a dirty word in the industry, how traditional brokerage models often fail agents long-term, and why they believe the model at Real Broker is changing lives for agents and their families.

The conversation dives into:

• Organic agent attraction vs aggressive recruiting
• Why mentorship and culture matter after agents join
• The difference between Real’s revenue share structure and other brokerages
• Building long-term wealth and retirement opportunities in real estate, stock options, passive income, and “mailbox money”
• How Real’s collaborative model supports growth and community

Key Takeaways

• Revenue share should reward mentorship and support — not just recruiting.
• Organic relationships and authentic conversations outperform hard selling.
• Real Broker’s model emphasizes quality agents and long-term collaboration.
• Passive income through rev share can become truly life-changing over time.

Real Broker announced its acquisition of RE/MAX (pending finalization around Aug–Sept), creating one of the largest real estate companies globally. This strategic move to combines: RE/MAX’s global brand + experienced agents with Real’s tech-driven platform + modern model and the goal is to provide more options for both agents and clients. 

🏢 How It Will Work

•  A holding company structure will sit at the top. Real and RE/MAX remain separate brands (no forced rebranding). Agents will not need to switch brokerages. Collaboration increases, especially in referrals, technology and services (mortgage, title, etc.) 
•  RE/MAX agents gain access to Real’s tech stack, AI tools, and lead nurturing systems, while Real agents gain brand credibility and expanded services (commercial, relocation).
•  Potential to compete with platforms like Zillow on lead generation 
•  ~1M high-intent leads annually from RE/MAX platform alone 
•  This is NOT about recruiting RE/MAX agents into Real. Both models will coexist and serve different agent preferences.
•  Think of it as “two strong brands under one umbrella.” Agents are encouraged to build relationships across both networks and share tools and knowledge
