Things are starting to get real for REALTORS® across the country in today's market. From clocking in at 80 to 100 hours a week, writing 20 offers just to get shut down, and not feeling fairly compensated for the amount of stress this position comes with... the burnout is real, and it doesn't look like it's going away anytime soon. So how can we cope and move forward in our businesses? I'm sitting down with my good friend, Leigh Brown, to talk about what we can do as Real Estate professionals to combat the 2022 Market fatigue.

Leigh Brown is more than just my friend; she's a Charlotte, NC Real Estate Broker, the owner of One Community Real Estate, a sought after Keynote speaker, a best selling author, and one of the biggest advocates for our industry when it comes to what's going on at the local, state and national levels. Oh, and a newly appointed chicken owner. You'll have to listen to find out more about that title!

I am so excited to share our talk with you, and I hope it helps you find the strength to keep going because we NEED you and your clients NEED you.

If anything we spoke about resonates with you, help is available. I've linked the help hotlines we talked about below, and we urge you to reach out. The only way to get through this is together.

It's no secret that the Real Estate Market so far in 2022 has been... crazy, to say the least. After speaking a little bit about this topic on my personal Instagram Stories it quickly became clear that I wasn't alone in feeling this way. Almost every Agent I knew reached out to tell me how much they related to the "struggle".

So, I decided to do something about it.

I hosted a Live chat with Agents and Industry members from across the country on Valentine's Day to talk about everything from how to keep organized through the market mess, how to keep clients expectations realistic and a lot about Mental Health Awareness.

So, let's talk about it.

During my research for my upcoming Real Estate by Relationship® Academy, one of the top questions I kept hearing come up was "How do I ask for business without sounding Salesy?".

YES, the dreaded sales person pitch we all have had to learn, rehearse and spit out while looking for leads... So how do you continue to grow your business without this icky speech?

It's time to throw away all of the trick you thought you knew before friends... Let's dive into it.

What do your organization skills have to do with you doing more business by relationship?
EVERYTHING!
The number one trait I see Agents lacking in their business is structure. Sometimes being organized doesn't come as naturally as we would like, and thats when having set systems in place comes in handy. Or that's when you find a team member with better organization skills than you and utilize their strengths!
Whatever you need to do to get there - let's talk about it.
Join me, take notes and listen up. We're getting organized, friends.

As Real Estate professionals, we are taught to find our niche! Whether it be in types of clients, areas, or communities. But so few do it. Why? Because they don't know how? They don't know how to find their passion? Or, they simply think that they are going to "miss out" on something. However, the riches are in the niches and our amazing guest on this week's episode is the master in it and shares all her strategies and what it has done for her business!
