For many real estate agents, marketing and advertising are murky must-do activities we don’t understand.

We know we need to “get out there” and stay in front of our target market. We’ve been told to build a brand, show up in more places, put money behind our efforts, and wait for the ROI to show up. 

But what does that actually mean, and does it even work? 

With so many options and so much noise, it’s no wonder agents feel stuck, scattered, or skeptical.

Add to that the pressure to show instant results, and most agents end up measuring the wrong thing, too soon, and in all the wrong ways. 

The truth? ROI isn’t about what happens in the first 30 days. It’s about what happens after consistent visibility and long-term trust compound.

In this episode, I sit down with JP Hamel, the newly appointed President and CEO of The N2 Company. 

With 16 years of experience in hyper-local advertising and a background as a franchisee himself, JP offers a clear-eyed perspective on what it really takes to grow your visibility, reputation, and referrals in real estate.

 

There are many places to advertise, but businesses generally don’t get a great education on where to spend their money. -JP Hamel
