- 0:45launch below and I will get you that link
- 0:47but for now let's get into it
- 0:49here's the truth as a team leader as a broker owner
- 0:52as somebody
- 0:53who's trying to duplicate what they have done
- 0:56in themselves this is the problem is we
- 1:00continue to do this we recruit we follow up
- 1:02we try and make
- 1:04you know someone be exactly what we were whether that's
- 1:07you know a buyer's agent or a listing
- 1:09agent or someone on your production team
- 1:11or someone you're bringing into your brokerage
- 1:13it just doesn't work so
- 1:15I get it I built my sales business first
- 1:18when I tried to scale it it was
- 1:21you know the next thing start a team do this do that
- 1:24that's when I realized that Agent attraction
- 1:26isn't a side hustle it's an entire new business
- 1:30inside of Carbon Collective we have built
- 1:32a ton of resources
- 1:33and have agents who have been there done that
- 1:36who will coach
- 1:37you to bring agents into your organization
- 1:40where you will not have as much liability
- 1:42you will not have as much you know responsibility
- 1:45you will absolutely
- 1:46be able to do exactly what you love
- 1:49and your agents will also have coaches
- 1:51that will help them sell their first house to reach
- 1:54you know that icon level agent so if you're
- 1:57interested in that comment Carbon Collective launch
- 1:59below and I can show you behind the curtain
- 2:01for two weeks but for now let's get in to how I have
- 2:05stabilized and created a revenue
- 2:08share business or an agent attraction business
- 2:10on the other side of my production business
- 2:14so the first thing is we need clarity and positioning
- 2:17when we're setting out to find the perfect
- 2:21team member or the perfect agent for your brokerage
- 2:24or the perfect agent in your organization
- 2:26it's not a one size fits all there's always different
- 2:30things that work with different groups
- 2:32and teams and so on
- 2:33so we need to really define that Avatar
- 2:37and once we have that Avatar
- 2:39then the value promise becomes much easier what value
- 2:42are you going to bring to them why should they join you over the boutique
- 2:46brokerage or the you know
- 2:48No. 1 Zillow team in your office or whatever that is
- 2:51why should they join you so we need to build
- 2:54a unique value proposition again separate
- 2:56from your production and your clients
- 2:58and that value proposition that's completely different
- 3:01and you're building
- 3:02something that you're able to take away
- 3:04if you have a one liner right my one liner
- 3:08which is also
- 3:09very similar for production is I help agents
- 3:12and all people build wealth through real estate
- 3:15right this is just a different segment of that
- 3:18and it's a very different model we're not talking about
- 3:21you know stacking rentals or house hacking or anything
- 3:24like that
- 3:25we're talking about stacking agents and helping agents
- 3:28and coming with impact and value to serve
- 3:30and the beauty of it is when you stack agents
- 3:33upon agents
- 3:34then the value stack only gets bigger if you have each
- 3:39person
- 3:39just bring their little bit of zone of expertise
- 3:42and that's the real difference here in an organization
- 3:45like we have at our group at Carbon Collective
- 3:48we don't have you know
- 3:51somebody who is you know the grand boss of all of it
- 3:55we have different agents who are coming together
- 3:57some are in the same line some are in different lines
- 4:00and we're all providing our zone of expertise
- 4:03so that our agents get the very best coaching
- 4:06wherever they're at meeting them where they're at
- 4:08if they're a new agent looking to cap
- 4:11we got a a section for that if they're
- 4:13you know a capping agent that's maybe plateaued
- 4:15or a capping agent that's
- 4:17ready to take the next step we have
- 4:19you know the icon track where there's icon agents
- 4:22in there coaching specific
- 4:23things that those agents should be going through
- 4:26at that particular time
- 4:28and then also we have the attraction coaching which
- 4:30this one is mainly focused around and
- 4:33you know agent people who have attracted agents
- 4:36broker former broker owners former team leads
- 4:39people have been in it and been in your shoes whether
- 4:42you know your considering making a move or not
- 4:46it may be a model
- 4:48that you want to come check out at least for the two weeks
- 4:50again Carvin Collective launch below
- 4:52the next thing we need to do is
- 4:54get our connection and our systems down we have to
- 4:58control you know our data in a specific CRM
- 5:02um I currently use
- 5:04another side of my lofty and have you know different
- 5:08pipelines and tags and things like that
- 5:10but we have to be able to contact our agents
- 5:13not only the agents that are prospects and leads
- 5:16who may join our team our brokerage organization
- 5:19but also the agents that you know are inside of it
- 5:22because here's the deal if we're providing
- 5:24this value and everyone's kind of doing this
- 5:27it's very confusing
- 5:28there's a lot going on and as it gets
- 5:30deeper there's more and more confusion
- 5:33you know at first because there's a lot coming at them all at once we wanna get them all their logins
- 5:37we wanna get them access
- 5:38to all the stuff we wanna make sure they bookmark
- 5:40all of the right websites and all of that
- 5:42and so that's a lot coming at them so
- 5:45we have to be able to communicate
- 5:47with them and so a CRM or some
- 5:50sort of organization software
- 5:52that will help you keep in touch with them
- 5:54it's nice if it's a CRM attached to a
- 5:57phone number so you can send them texts
- 5:59emails and so on
- 6:00this is very important you also for the agents that
- 6:04you know haven't come over you want to make sure that you're
- 6:06moving the conversation along
- 6:08uh as you're attracting them to your brokerage or team
- 6:11and you want to make sure that you have those notes
- 6:13and you know what's going on and maybe there's specific
- 6:16checkpoints maybe they're
- 6:17getting ready to close a big deal and this could be a good time for them to consider
- 6:21making a switch
- 6:22those are all times to make sure that you're focused on
- 6:25exactly where that might be
- 6:27and so that's of utmost importance
- 6:31uh and then you wanna
- 6:32you know kind of build a pipeline
- 6:33just like you would with your clients and so on
- 6:36so if you want
- 6:37you know a a higher level opportunity to do this a CRM
- 6:43with you know appropriate
- 6:45segmentation of agents and clients
- 6:48and so on as needed uh some people like to do separate
- 6:52currently I'm working
- 6:53completely within the lofty platform
- 6:56seems to be working okay ultimately I'll probably
- 6:59switch them maybe at a go high level or something like that
- 7:02but the key here is communication and organized
- 7:05communication you don't want
- 7:07you know to get that message
- 7:08that says hey you know this person got their license
- 7:11and they just joined a different brokerage
- 7:12because there wasn't the follow up so make sure your systems are in place and all of that
- 7:16but also as you're creating the value
- 7:19create systems in order to deliver them
- 7:21if you can align with the right
- 7:23same programs and things like that
- 7:25that is also very helpful for the agents
- 7:28so they don't have 15 different websites
- 7:31and all of this value all over because typically
- 7:34what I've seen is when they're overwhelmed
- 7:36they kind of step back from that and the next thing is
- 7:39in content and conversation we have to be focused right
- 7:44when I'm talking to agents who are interested
- 7:46in attraction
- 7:47the first thing that I kind of talk to them about
- 7:49is knowing the model this is of utmost importance
- 7:53and if they know the model
- 7:55or they know the team structure
- 7:57they know the brokerage model
- 7:59that they are trying to attract to
- 8:01it makes it a lot easier and then ultimately
- 8:05the biggest secret
- 8:06is even if you have the greatest model in the world
- 8:09which there's only one greatest
- 8:10model in the world I'll tell you guys all that
- 8:13you have to understand that
- 8:15most people who are real estate agents
- 8:18don't care about most of the model
- 8:20maybe there's something out there
- 8:22that they'll absolutely
- 8:23love down the road and you can kind of touch on it
- 8:26but if you're just throwing
- 8:27every single thing at them and they can't get a word in edgewise
- 8:31this is going to be a problem so we want to make sure
- 8:34we as the recruiter broker team lead whatever we are
- 8:39it knows the model right and then
- 8:43we want to find the other agents pain points or
- 8:46so that we can have solutions to those pain points
- 8:50this is the No. 1 mistake I see newer agents
- 8:53do that are trying to build an organization
- 8:55or a team is they just push everything out there
- 8:59yes if you're an amazing team and you provide
- 9:01all the leads and you know it is what it is
- 9:04don't change what you're doing if you're growing
- 9:06you're fine but if you're having struggles
- 9:09to get going or grow or have conversations
- 9:11with these agents
- 9:12try and flip the script and start by listening verse
- 9:17you know just
- 9:18spewing all this information all over them
- 9:20then within your content
- 9:22start to create more value driven approach
- 9:26giving your stuff away
- 9:28I always say give it away we always say everything
- 9:31that we have is right here on our YouTube channels
- 9:34right here on our podcast
- 9:36it's just a lot more organized
- 9:37within our courses and our systems and
- 9:40you know when we're coaching
- 9:41it becomes a lot less generalized
- 9:43and much more individualized and that's
- 9:45one positive of Carbon Collective that we have created
- 9:49is you will have specific individual coaches
- 9:51who have been there done that read the book
- 9:53and are ready to train you in doing the same
- 9:56will you do it exactly the same absolutely not
- 9:59right if I'm a basketball coach
- 10:01my point guard is not gonna play the same way
- 10:03that my last point guard
- 10:05did or I did when I was younger right they're
- 10:08they're gonna have their own game am I going to coach
- 10:10am I gonna call the plays am I gonna
- 10:12you know do the subs substitutions absolutely but
- 10:17the the final execution of the play
- 10:19comes down to that specific
- 10:21individual their strengths their weaknesses
- 10:23and a plan can be made
- 10:25that's what coaching is and that's
- 10:27what we strive to do at Carbon Collective and then
- 10:30once we get in
- 10:31the biggest pillar is going to be retention
- 10:34we have to understand the goal
- 10:36isn't to have more agents the goal is to lead better
- 10:40lead those agents give them the information
- 10:42that they need I can't possibly give them
- 10:45every single specific thing they need
- 10:47so plugging them into a group or a team or a brokerage
- 10:51that has their best
- 10:52interest in mind that works and collaborates
- 10:55is absolutely the key to success and you as a leader
- 10:59can you know
- 11:00don't have to be fearful of them leaving or anything
- 11:02like that because if we lead and the group
- 11:07you know picks up the slack or picks up some of the weaknesses
- 11:10then collaboration takes it to a whole another level
- 11:13we go down the
- 11:15area of accountability and all of the things
- 11:18and retention is the key to reaching those numbers
- 11:22when ultimately
- 11:23sometimes we're always focused on that attraction
- 11:26so once we have all of the you know the Avatar
- 11:30the systems
- 11:31and value that's set up and we create that value we
- 11:35deliver that value in a way that
- 11:38you know is appropriate
- 11:39we're in the right model and we're doing all the things or
- 11:42know the model then we can start having conversations
- 11:45and creating content around that
- 11:47to increase our attraction levels
- 11:49and then we just have to lead
- 11:51once we've done it once we've run the play
- 11:54over and over and over
- 11:55again and it's working and conversations are happening
- 11:58then we have to lead to retain those agents
- 12:01and that's exactly how it became an entire business
- 12:06right it's very similar to having clients
- 12:09but it's not the same business it has to be separate
- 12:11there's a different target audience
- 12:13there's a different outcome
- 12:15and there's a lot of different things that go on in it
- 12:18because in the end
- 12:20when you're attracting agents in the same market or
- 12:23to your brokerage
- 12:24which is the same market or your team which is the same hyper local market
- 12:27you technically
- 12:28are in competition with each other for the clients
- 12:31right
- 12:32that's not how we operate within Carbon Collective
- 12:35it's a community
- 12:36there are no secrets there are no secret sauces
- 12:39and that's exactly why it allows
- 12:41everyone to take their business to the next level
- 12:44because we start with the Avatar okay if you
- 12:47have the exact same Avatar
- 12:49in the exact same town in the exact same city
- 12:52well yes then you are competition
- 12:54but if your Avatar is a little different or you're in the neighboring
- 12:56town or you're this or you're that
- 12:59then all of a sudden the competition
- 13:00kind of disperses and we're setting a more wider net
- 13:04first trying to find a needle in a haystack so
- 13:06this is my passion
- 13:08this is why I left my dad's brokerage
- 13:10so I could help other agents do exactly what I did
- 13:13and now we are only furthering that journey
- 13:16still in the wolf pack still doing the things
- 13:18but Carbon Collective is an absolutely
- 13:20massive opportunity for you
