What does it take to lead the #1 RE/MAX team in Minnesota while staying kind, humble, and insanely effective? Ryan O'Neill joins James and Keith to share the story behind his 215-agent powerhouse team, doing over 1,600 sides and $621 million in volume in 2024. This conversation is a masterclass in servant leadership, attracting talent (instead of recruiting it), and why heart matters just as much as hustle.

Ryan breaks down his tech stack, his approach to team structure, top lead sources, and the unique value he offers that keeps agents loyal and clients happy. You'll also hear how he balances old-school relationship-building with new-school lead gen strategies, and why he never opened his own brokerage despite massive success.
