The Tyler Smith Show

This is the second half of an interview I did with Greg Charlop who hosts The Real Estate Flash on Amazon Alexa (you can enable the Real Estate Flash here http://bit.ly/RealEstateFlash). If you haven't, go back and listen to part one for more context.

I was interviewed by Greg Charlop who hosts The Real Estate Flash on Amazon Alexa (you can enable the Real Estate Flash here http://bit.ly/RealEstateFlash). This is part one of our interview.

At SkySlope we have a team of transaction coordinators—we call them SkyTC. It's an additional white-glove service that SkySlope offers to agents and brokers.

I had a little ATA with our TCs so they could ask me anything they wanted — from my experience of being a Realtor to how I run SkySlope. They asked some great questions that I thought would be cool to share on the podcast.

Would love to hear what questions you have. Hit me up on Twitter @tycloud.

In life, we get advice from so many people. Years ago, I received advice from a trusted mentor and over the years, I never acted it. I thought, I planned but I didn’t execute. 

I wish I would have started creating a compelling and clear story of my vision from day one.

Listen to the story of how I crafted my vision and use it to drive my team and inspire our customers.

Should selling your home be as fast and convenient as getting an Uber across town or ordering dog food on Prime? Or, is the agent experience a sacred bond that no technology could ever replace? I sat down with one of my enterprise account managers, and a recent home seller himself, Chris, to discuss this trend that’s shaking up the real estate world.

Daniel Ramsey is the founder of real estate virtual assistant company MyOutDesk (www.MyOutDesk.com). Back before we were running tech companies, we were Realtors (competing with each other in the Sacramento market). In this episode, Daniel and I look back on our time as Realtors, how we ran our teams, and how we ended up building successful real estate businesses. We go over everything from how hiring an assistant significantly changed our business for the better to prospecting hacks that helped us become top-producers.

In this episode, I also reference my guide to hiring an assistant. You can download it for free here: https://askty.com/hire-assistant-guide/

When the king of content tells you to do something, you do it. But when doing that thing makes a real impact on your customers, you go all in.

No matter how Black Mirror the world gets, every business needs to build relationships. It's absolutely vital to the success of your business. Think about who your customers are. If you are a broker, your customers are agents. It's all about building relationships and providing value. No matter how Black Mirror the world gets, every business needs to build relationships.

TBT to a rant about innovating as a real estate agent. How can agents be more innovative? Get outside the tech bubble and consider how impactful it is to "wow!" the people that you do business with — be it clients, or vendors, or employees.

I wish the path I took to get to where I am was easier. While I feel incredibly lucky, I've learned some tough lessons. I'm creating this series (both a podcast and a vlog) because I wish I had something like this when I was just starting out. Running a company is, by far, the hardest thing I've ever done and if I can provide a little insight into my journey, then this project will be a success.
