Tune into this engaging Mastermind session where top real estate professionals dive deep into optimizing ad spend, leveraging AI tools, and mastering lead follow-up to secure more appointments. Whether you're a high-producing solo agent or a team lead, discover proven strategies for predictable results in today's attention economy.

We kick off with winning strategies, including one agent’s success using personalized video and military connections to secure both a buyer and a listing. Another agent shares a breakthrough using an AI-generated image of an old bungalow with a "banana seat" bike for a downsizer ad, showing the power of creative testing.

Inside This Episode:

• Advanced Ad Testing and Budget Management: Logan walks through the fundamental methodology of ad management, including how to structure $500 to $800 monthly budgets, implement split A/B tests, and make crucial adjustments without "resetting the algorithm" (the 25% rule). Learn why finding good leads is more important than finding merely cheap leads.
• The Power of AI for Creative Assets: Discover the "nano banana" model within Google’s Gemini AI, which allows for instant, unbelievably consistent edits (like changing a bike's color) on existing images to rapidly test new ad concepts. See simple yet effective video creative created using Google Earth Studio Pro to capture attention.
• AI Lead Follow-Up Data: Get new insights on the AI texting tool (Smart Julie). We analyze data showing that leads are taking an average of 4.3 days to book appointments, with some booking appointments from leads over 300 days old. We also reveal that 20% of leads that book appointments have clicked on more than one ad, reinforcing the role of remarketing.
• Remarketing and Listing Strategies: Learn how to maximize your listings by running them as lead generating ads for 14 days, then rotating them into remarketing ad bundles to preserve your budget and ensure your entire database sees them multiple times a month.

This episode offers actionable steps to improve your ad performance, embrace new AI tools, and refine your approach to lead nurture.

The biggest mistake agents make is quitting too soon, as over 80% stop after the first call or text. The ad is just the beginning of a conversation; the agent who keeps the dialogue going the longest wins.

Learn two expert approaches (personable and aggressive) for consistent, systematic follow-up. Shift your mindset to fear missing the right conversation, not scaring leads away. Confidence comes from daily execution. Consistency establishes you as the market professional, shortening the space between commission checks.

Dive deep into proven ad strategies that are working right now:

• Downsizing Ads: Consistently effective, especially for reaching responsive, traditional clients often looking to sell [Podcast Description, 14, 15, 24]. Learn how to link these to targeted searches for single-story homes and use compelling collage imagery [Podcast Description, 15, 42]. This ad type often produces excellent statistical and demographic results.
• New Construction & Recently Built Ads: Attract higher-intent buyers by focusing on new or recently constructed homes (e.g., 2023 or newer) [Podcast Description, 34, 35, 257]. Leverage striking AI-generated imagery that captures attention, focusing on aspects like developing areas or partially completed elements to stand out.
• Listing Ads: Use your active listings not just for lead generation, but also as a powerful remarketing tool to impress current clients and attract new ones by showcasing your marketing prowess [Podcast Description, 90, 238]. Put your listings in bundles targeting homeowners, ensuring clients see your active promotion.
• Imagery is everything: Ads that don't look like ads catch attention; avoid logos or branding on lead generation ads. Crisp, well-saturated images that jump off the screen are key.

Beyond ads, we cover relentless follow-up and nurturing strategies [Podcast Description]:

• The Power of the Phone Call: Discover effective opening lines to convert curious leads into appointments [Podcast Description, 122, 123, 305]. Focus on providing value and what they asked for, rather than immediately pushing for an appointment.
• Automated Texting & Email Drips: Set up systems within Street Text or integrated CRMs like Follow Up Boss (FUB) to consistently engage leads [Podcast Description, 7, 58]. Automated texts can boost responses by up to 33% when part of your action plans.
• Leveraging Your Database (Remarketing): Your existing leads are a "goldmine" [Podcast Description]. Re-engage them through remarketing campaigns – often the "cheapest cost per lead" you'll ever get. Consistently staying in front of your database is crucial, as many leads take time to convert.
• Lead Enrichment: Utilize tools like Forewarn or BeenVerified to gather more information on leads, verify phone numbers, and improve deliverability, especially for older demographics who may prefer traditional communication like handwritten letters.

This episode explores the strategies that convert leads into lasting client relationships and successful deals, emphasizing the human element and consistent effort.

In this episode, you will learn about:

• Maximizing Ad Engagement & "Ad CPR": Discover why simply checking your ads and interacting with comments is a goldmine for leads, often leading to direct listing appointments even without traditional lead submissions. Learn how to implement "Ad CPR" – strategic budget and audience changes – to revive stale ads and maintain consistent lead flow, preserving valuable social proof.
• The Power of Consistent Follow-Up & Humanizing Your Approach: Understand that converting leads is about the nurture part of the relationship through consistent, personalized outreach, which can be more effective than relying solely on automations. Remember that leads are human beings with stories and lives; approaching them with empathy and a genuine desire to serve, even when faced with initial resistance, can lead to powerful connections and solutions. Learn to qualify leads effectively without being discouraged by "no" responses, as each "no" brings you closer to a "yes" by clarifying your focus.
• Overcoming Perfectionism & Leveraging Technology for Brand Building: Adopt the liberating mantra that imperfect action is better than taking no action at all, emphasizing the importance of getting started and continually improving rather than waiting for everything to be "perfect". Gain insights into leveraging technology for targeted remarketing, such as customizing funnels, utilizing tags for specific audiences (e.g., buyers/sellers), and repurposing existing content like blog posts or positive Google reviews into effective video and ad bundles to continually provide value and build your brand. Your brand is ultimately defined by how a person feels from your business, not just your logo.
• The Importance of Habits and Consistency: Hear why forming consistent daily habits in your lead generation and follow-up is paramount to long-term success, transforming your efforts into a reliable business rather than relying on luck. It's about falling in love with the process and knowing that consistent effort will yield results over time.
