Garrett created a 99% conversion rate with buyers and a 95% conversion rate with sellers. Here's how. Listen as Garrett Marroon, host of The Faithful Agent Podcast, unpacks the exact strategy he used to build a 100% referral-based business that generated $300,000 in annual profit—all while staying aligned with his faith and protecting his time with family. 

Garrett shares his proven 36-Touch System, including practical tools like video texts, handwritten notes, and simple client events that cost less but create deeper relationships. He also highlights how faith-driven agents can use these methods to stand out in an industry that's increasingly trying to replace the personal touch with tech.

Whether you're brand new to real estate or looking to shift from hustle to health, this episode will give you a roadmap to sustainable success built on relationships, not algorithms.
