AI for Realtors: How to Save Time, Scale Smart, and Build Relationships That Last

Host: Debbie Lariviere, Founder of Monter Coaching Guest: Rick Janson, Realtor & AI Strategist, Janson.ai

Episode Summary: AI isn't here to replace real estate agents—it's here to give you your time back. In this episode, Debbie sits down with Rick Janson, one of the leading AI educators for Realtors, to unpack how you can use AI to cut through the noise, streamline operations, and get back to what really drives your business: relationships.

From listing descriptions to staging advice, from VA hiring to brokerage-level strategy—Rick shows exactly where AI fits into your business today, and how to stay ahead as it evolves tomorrow.

What You'll Learn:

• Why AI is the first tech that actually saves Realtors time (instead of stealing it)

• How to write listing descriptions that go beyond "light and bright"

• A step-by-step hack ("the Gobbledygook Method") to prompt AI like a pro

• Using AI to stage, re-launch, and market listings that are stalling out

• The role of AI in blogging, SEO, and social content repurposing

• How to leverage VAs + AI for exponential efficiency

• Why brokerages need different AI strategies than agents—and where to start

• What's coming next with video, custom GPTs, and AI agents

Spotlight on Strategy:
