What can you learn from a Lifer with Bob Hartwell
I got to interview Bob and asked him to tell his story about finding Keller Williams and why he's un-recruitable. Listen in and I think you'll find he has a great reason for being at KW.

Looking back...
If you want to schedule a call you can click on this link (https://calendly.com/realtycaffeine/30min). It will take you to a calendar where you can request a 30-minute time block. I’ll accept and we’ll get on Google Meet to talk face to face. We can go longer than 30 minutes too but we might need to schedule another time.
It’s free and it might just help if you’re stuck. No strings, no pitch, just someone to listen and maybe get you unstuck.

What makes Keller Williams Different than all other brands? Part 2 of 2
There is only one PRIVATELY-HELD, AGENT-CENTRIC, INTERDEPENDENT real estate company driven by PURPOSE & COMMUNITY, led by the Steve Jobs of the real estate industry, that is building PROPRIETARY technology to PROTECT and ELEVATE the role of the true real estate professional in an industry that is now trying to turn them into low paid functionaries! #BetOnRED #TheInfiniteGame #ArmyOfStakeholders #TheKWeffect
This is part 2 of 2 that answers that question by digging into the opening sentence.

I'm Angry Too!
The Truth Matters
Clarence Darrow once said, “Chase after the truth like all hell and you’ll free yourself, even though you never touch its coattails.”

Convention of States (https://conventionofstates.com/)
So what do we do from here?
I propose finding sources that will tell us the truth, rewarding them for their work, and spend time listening to each other to discover our agreements, not just our differences. Turn off the commercialized media and we’ll be happier people.
I propose getting involved in calling a Constitutional Convention like the Convention of States proposes to impose term limits.
Finally, I propose we work to take care of each other. To give more than you take.
This is the path I’m on.
We can all do these things. Are you in?
Thanks for listening

Shiny - with thanks to Miguel
When you don’t know where you’re going, distractions look like opportunities. From Kevin Thompson on Facebook.
The world expects that its requests will be accepted. That assignments, lunch dates, new projects, and even favors will get a yes. It’s just a small ask, the person thinks. The problem is obvious—if you spend all day hitting the ball back, you’ll never end up serving. Seth Godin, The Process (https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B088QLT891&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_BPk7Fb8PEGZ3D).

I’d recommend that one too as you start the new year. I plan to read it again to help me create systems to feed my goals

Fast Farming 8x8
In our business, we rely on our databases, our sphere of influence, and local connections. I run across an agent occasionally who is really new to the area, just getting started or for some reason has never developed enough contacts to sustain a business.
This is a system I've taught in the past that helps combat that problem in just 8 weeks and it builds your database as you go.
Here is a link I mentioned in the show
https://jerrywrobertson.com/fast-farming-8x8/ (https://jerrywrobertson.com/fast-farming-8x8/) that will take you to the blog article.

Picking a Broker
I see lots of new agents ask how to pick a broker and the answers tend to run along ‘splits’ and ‘training’.
Training in how to be a real estate agent is important and there are lots of ways to do that. In-person training, online training, hire a coach, find a mentor, and lean on your broker or team leader for direction and advice. They will all teach you the job of being a real estate agent.
There is a more critical aspect you need to consider, however.
Do they teach you how to run a real estate business?
Keep listening for the reality of picking a broker.

Is it acceptable to send a mass text?
Agents who fail to lead generate go out of business quickly so we teach them how to work by referral. That saves money, time and allows them to focus on their clients, never have to resort to cold calling.
I got started mentoring agents about 3 years ago and love helping newbies get started working by referral. In this episode, we'll talk about texting or email people you don't know and how that can cost you big money.
We're also happy to announce that Module 1 of the Referral Focused, MREA Based Course for Solo Agents is up and ready for you to listen to. Head over to focus.JerryRobertson.me (https://focus.JerryRobertson.me) for more info and to sign up. While we build out the course we're discounting the price and offering some one on one coaching to get you started on the right foot for the new year. Come check it out.
Come check us out.
Thanks for listening,
