Level Up - From Agent to Entrepreneur

So You Want to Be a Listing Agent? Start Here


Listen Later

Every new agent has heard the old saying: “You have to list to last.” The industry myth is that the fastest way to big numbers is chasing listings. 

But here’s the truth: being a listing agent isn’t just about getting a few signs in the yard. It’s an entirely different business model. 

Buyer’s agents mostly service leads that come to them. Listing agents? They generate leads out of thin air. That’s why most people who say they want to be listing agents back off the second they realize what it takes: daily prospecting, mastering conversations, and building the confidence to win face-to-face at the kitchen table.

How do you actually become a dominant listing agent? Why do so many listing agents struggle with listings? 

In this episode, we break down the real difference between buyer and listing agents. We discuss why your presentation skills may matter even more than your prospecting. 

 

Things You’ll Learn In This Episode 

  • Listing agent = lead generator
  • Being a listing agent isn’t about waiting for opportunities; it’s about creating them. How do you build your entire schedule around prospecting?

  • Why confidence beats scripts
  • Agents who fear giving a weak presentation avoid setting appointments altogether. How does mastering your presentation actually unlock more leads?

  • Sellers sell on logic, not emotion
  • Buyers dream about how a home feels. Sellers focus on data and dollars. How do you use market knowledge to justify your recommendations with hard logic?
