Series: Part 2 of 5 — Jeremy’s Top Sales Techniques

Ever feel like sellers put up walls the moment you start talking?
What if the secret to closing more deals was simply being seen as an equal,not a salesperson?

In Week 2 of the REI Freedom Podcast’s high-level sales series, host Jeremy Beland breaks down the game-changing concept of status alignment. With nearly 500 off-market deals under his belt, Jeremy shares how building trust starts with leveling the playing field.

Instead of chasing deals, Jeremy teaches you how to:

  • Ditch the “salesperson vibe” and approach sellers as a peer
  • Use status alignment to create instant rapport and lower resistance
  • Ask open-ended questions that foster trust and honest conversations
  • Let sellers feel in control, leading to smoother negotiations and better outcomes
  • Focus on making a friend first, because trust closes deals

By connecting on a human level and finding common ground, you’ll discover that sellers become far more willing to work with you, and stay committed throughout the process.
