How do you build a real estate brokerage where 81% of your agents increase their business by an average of 65% in a single year, especially when the overall market is down? You build a Ninja company. Join Eric Thompson as he sits down with Jenny Usaj, the innovative owner of Usaj Realty in Denver, Colorado, and a new addition to the Ninja Coaching team. Jenny provides a masterclass on how she has intentionally and systematically infused the Ninja Selling philosophy into every aspect of her brokerage, creating a culture of incredible support, accountability, and success.

Jenny pulls back the curtain on her proven strategies, detailing the non-negotiable systems that have transformed her company. Learn why every agent is required to attend a Ninja Installation within their first year (and why they pay for it themselves), and how this sets the foundation for a shared language and business approach. Discover how Jenny creates an immersive Ninja environment, from a neon "The System Works" sign on the wall and a "Why Fridge" in the kitchen, to company-supported auto-flow and a game-changing process where her staff prepares real estate reviews for the agents.

This episode is a practical blueprint for any brokerage owner, manager, or team leader who wants to go beyond just introducing Ninja concepts and truly build a high-performance Ninja culture. Jenny shares her weekly sales meeting agenda, her approach to skills-building workshops, and her number one piece of advice for leaders looking to start this journey: get your staff on board first.

• "I found when it's their own money and it's their own time away from their family... it was a very different experience for them."

• "The year I adopted real estate reviews was the year I became a listing agent."

• "We have everyone's 'why' on the fridge... it's oftentimes a bit of a collage of everyone's family or a trip they want to take."

• "Having time to practice as a team, to practice and hear what other people are doing has been so invaluable to our agents."

• "Start with your staff, get your staff on board, get some traction there, and then slowly bring it to the agents with one nugget at a time."
