- 0:00you've probably heard multiple things
- 0:02this brokerage is best for new agents
- 0:05this brokerage is not for new agents
- 0:07but is EXP Realty a good choice for new agents
- 0:11the truth is
- 0:12is that the model actually puts gasoline on an already
- 0:15amazing fire of value which you can utilize however
- 0:20sometimes there's one decision here
- 0:23two decisions here
- 0:24that actually make it not the best for new agents
- 0:27and I'm gonna dive into those
- 0:29so you can stay away from there
- 0:30but also
- 0:31let's take a step back and have some perspective
- 0:34on what it means to be a new agent
- 0:37and who the fault really is
- 0:40that the agent success rate is so low let's go
- 0:48what's up guys
- 0:48I'm Jeremy Kane with EXP Realty in the Wolf Pack
- 0:50the No. 1 organization at EXP Realty
- 0:53and there is a reason for that
- 0:54we are growing four times faster than the top leaders
- 0:57at the company
- 0:58because we have set the system and set the process
- 1:03so that you have so much value
- 1:06that you won't even know what to do with however
- 1:08some new agents do really struggle
- 1:11and it comes with systems
- 1:13it comes with coaching and all of that is put into one
- 1:17on top of learning a new industry
- 1:19making sure that you understand your contracts
- 1:21and all of that
- 1:22so we're gonna dive in to really find out
- 1:24is EXP the best fit for new agents
- 1:27and ultimately for you so as we dive into this
- 1:31choosing a sponsor at any of the cloud based brokerages
- 1:34is an absolute game changer
- 1:37the sponsor is an added person
- 1:40or seven people in EXP's case
- 1:43that should provide a little bit of value
- 1:46to see where you can take your career
- 1:48it doesn't exist at other brokerages
- 1:51all of the other things we have mentors
- 1:53we have brokers we have contracts classes
- 1:56we have all of those things however
- 1:59EXP has this additional piece in the Rev share model
- 2:03where there is additional value
- 2:04that should be coming in for 7
- 2:075 tiers whatever that looks like for you
- 2:09as to where you fall in an organization
- 2:12so does it sound like something that you know
- 2:14absolutely would blow you away
- 2:16do we have you know cool names of of classes
- 2:20yep we got that too fast cap
- 2:21absolutely amazing
- 2:22we'll talk about that here in a second
- 2:24my foundations builder all of those things
- 2:27but the brokerage itself
- 2:30is probably not to blame for your struggles
- 2:33if you're a new agent if you're a new agent struggling
- 2:35or you're a new agent coming in
- 2:37the research and the education really matters
- 2:40so as we kind of pull the curtain back oh
- 2:44as we pull the curtain back on this
- 2:46let's really dive in to choosing the right sponsor
- 2:49when you are at a brokerage
- 2:52and you go into the broker's office and he says
- 2:55you know we do all of these things
- 2:56that's great right
- 2:58at EXP you have the agents
- 3:01who are bringing agents to the table
- 3:03and the managing broker is over here
- 3:05still a resource
- 3:06typically multiple in the same state for those major
- 3:10you know
- 3:10issues and concerns or those difficult questions
- 3:14100% available almost all day
- 3:17every day next we have a sponsor and the upline
- 3:22and this is where it gets crazy because at EXP
- 3:25especially the sponsor that you choose
- 3:27will give you direct access to the seven tiers
- 3:30above you the sponsor
- 3:32and then 6 above him or her
- 3:34and so choosing a sponsor could be really cool
- 3:36if you wanna do YouTube
- 3:38you can talk to the No. 1 YouTube coach
- 3:40in the real estate space Mike Sherard
- 3:43who's my friend and in my upline
- 3:45if you want to get an investing and flipping homes
- 3:47Connor Steinbrook is Mike's sponsor
- 3:50and he's there to help and guide you along in those
- 3:53endeavors but the difference is it's specific
- 3:56it's things that they have done
- 3:58it's not just a broker who's pulling people in or
- 4:01you know taking a webinar and teaching a class
- 4:04it's true people
- 4:05and true agents that are in the industry
- 4:07coaching and selling homes
- 4:10that can help you with that specific thing
- 4:12you're looking for if you struggle with systems
- 4:14processes time management and you are like
- 4:16okay well
- 4:17I have this full time job and I need to do this
- 4:19we got Louis Gault right
- 4:20and then you have myself
- 4:22who has the Foundations builder
- 4:23an exact blueprint of how I've built my business
- 4:27an interaction active community
- 4:29as well as a course that you can plug into
- 4:31to really get your lead generation set up
- 4:34so you're not chasing the next paid lead generation
- 4:37or that kind of stuff so as you see
- 4:39those are four massive value adds
- 4:42that you get for absolutely free
- 4:44just by choosing me as your sponsor
- 4:46and then below that
- 4:47there's all kinds of different specializations
- 4:50and so on this organization is set up for success
- 4:54and we kind of lead the way
- 4:56and we kind of started with Mike Sherard
- 4:58giving his Social Agent Academy for absolutely free
- 5:00so if you're interested in partnering with somebody
- 5:02like that
- 5:03or this is the first time you're hearing about this
- 5:05definitely book a call before you choose your brokerage
- 5:08and we can talk about this
- 5:09and see if we have the right fit for you
- 5:12because we haven't even gone into the fast cap
- 5:14developed by Brian Ellington
- 5:16and top producing agents across our company
- 5:19that is a six week course
- 5:22it'll hammer it down you'll have KPIs
- 5:24you'll have accountability partners
- 5:25and that's on the brokerage side
- 5:27so that's what we offer for those new agents
- 5:30to really get the ball rolling
- 5:32and get momentum cause the truth is
- 5:34this business is a little bit about the legal
- 5:36side of real estate the stuff that you got licensed
- 5:38and a lot bit about marketing
- 5:40and how you're gonna grow that business
- 5:41communicate with potential clients
- 5:44and scale in a fashion that allows you to put food on
- 5:47your family's table because let's be real
- 5:50the memberships and the MLS
- 5:52and all of the things do get expensive
- 5:55and so you have a short time window
- 5:57and so if you're going to a new brokerage
- 5:59because they have the best training for everybody
- 6:01and they're gonna sit you down in an office for
- 6:03three months and
- 6:04you know teach you all the tricks of the trade
- 6:07the truth is
- 6:08you don't learn anything until you're out in the field
- 6:10and so if you're considering this
- 6:13the 24 7 access to a lot of these courses
- 6:16and the replays and
- 6:17you know
- 6:18all of this stuff where it's super hyper focused
- 6:21all starts with the sponsor that you choose
- 6:23if you were out there and EXP's on your list
- 6:25and you haven't choose you know
- 6:27chosen as exact sponsor yet
- 6:29or you want to have a further conversation
- 6:31because EXP just developed co sponsorship again
- 6:34if you're at the brokerage already
- 6:36you're a little bit late for that but if you are not
- 6:38we can have a conversation
- 6:40and we can set up the best value stack for you
- 6:42based on your needs not what I give
- 6:45not what I do but what you need
- 6:47what you like and give you a situation where you have
- 6:51a plethora of value that is just not offered
- 6:54at any other brokerage
- 6:55so you say okay Jeremy that sounds pretty good
- 6:58well I did a feature with Joseph Cucumudoll and he is
- 7:04was a new agent he literally logged on to my course
- 7:08and the first three videos he was like oh
- 7:11it clicked he then went to his church
- 7:14and he has closed several deals
- 7:16and has more in the pipeline
- 7:18just from those first three videos
- 7:20in my sphere of influence foundation builder
- 7:23he has the success
- 7:24I did a video with him and you can check that out here
- 7:28uh but ultimately
- 7:30he came into the industry from the tech world
- 7:33he was looking at AI
- 7:34he was doing this stuff and ultimately was like
- 7:37get out and talk to people
- 7:38shift your momentum
- 7:39shift your energy and it absolutely changed it
- 7:43and this is not a hardcore sales pitch
- 7:45this is how you can be where your feet are
- 7:48and have a confidence about you
- 7:50and have strategic relationships within those circles
- 7:55that will help you grow your business really quickly
- 7:58because ultimately we need as many
- 8:00you know possibilities coming in
- 8:02and as many people shouting through a megaphone
- 8:04our name as possible so check that video out
- 8:08and if you're interested in my course
- 8:09or partnering with us
- 8:10and getting all of that for absolutely free
- 8:12including my coaching on a one on one level
- 8:14definitely book a call at the re Agent Wolf Pack
- 8:16and we'll get there okay
- 8:18now let's go to what EXP actually offers new agents
- 8:22right we have onboarding assistance through me
- 8:26where we're gonna sit down
- 8:27we're gonna go through it
- 8:28and make sure everything goes well
- 8:30cause here's the deal
- 8:31EXP's onboarding is a system of emails
- 8:34that you need to log into certain things
- 8:37and have access to those
- 8:38so you have the file in the back end
- 8:40it's kind of the start up piece however
- 8:42it's a lot of emails all at once and the truth is
- 8:45we just wanna make sure you get all the value
- 8:47you were promised
- 8:49but after 35 emails plus a few from the Wolf Pack
- 8:53you're gonna need a little bit of guidance
- 8:54to go through and figure this out
- 8:56we got your back there then we have fast cap
- 8:59once you go through Fastcap and you're doing that
- 9:01or maybe you choose the foundations Builder
- 9:03which you'll have for free
- 9:04which is my course then you're going through that
- 9:06building those lead generation
- 9:08hyper focused on building your business
- 9:11in a little bit more modern way
- 9:12we're not gonna be you know
- 9:13making you dial the phones
- 9:15or making you do the door knocks
- 9:16certainly those are absolutely
- 9:18amazing ways to grow your business
- 9:20but if it's not for you
- 9:21it's not for you but there is hope out there
- 9:23there's not one way to build this business
- 9:25the beauty of this business is
- 9:27is that everything works
- 9:29nothing doesn't and so if you want to
- 9:31be surrounded by somebody not only myself
- 9:34but the entire Wolf Pack and the community of 30
- 9:36three hundred agents of
- 9:38agents who had taken the chance
- 9:40and have absolutely changed their lives
- 9:42because of that decision
- 9:43please reach out because that's not one
- 9:46a we can meet you where you're at
- 9:48see if we're a good fit
- 9:50and absolutely get you off to a fire
- 9:52start in your real estate career
- 9:55because starting is the most important part
- 9:57because you get six 12
- 9:5918 months down the road and it's a big deal
- 10:02it's a big hurdle
- 10:03and we don't want that within our community
- 10:06you have people that are just like you
- 10:08you have people that are doing things at really
- 10:11really high levels in every aspect of lead generation
- 10:14every aspect of marketing
- 10:15that there's always a resource for you
- 10:17there's always an accountability partner
- 10:19there's always someone that's in the fight with you
- 10:21right so it's a huge deal
- 10:23and then you have the hierarchy of top producers
- 10:25where when it's time to scale
- 10:27you know maybe you you have this thing going
- 10:30you're like reaching out to you know
- 10:31somebody who's crushing on Instagram or whatever
- 10:33the Wolf Pack is a family
- 10:35and that's exactly what you need
- 10:36to beat that statistic that 80
- 10:4082% of real estate agents fail in their first year
- 10:42the next objection
- 10:44I get a lot of times with newer agents is
- 10:46I need someone local well
- 10:48we got that covered too
- 10:49because if you need someone local
- 10:51then you and you haven't done any transactions
- 10:54you can be assigned a mentor
- 10:55the mentor is local sponsor is different
- 10:58sponsor can be a marketing and branding
- 11:00you know genius
- 11:01whatever you're looking for but if the mentor is local
- 11:05they can help you with those hyper local nuances
- 11:07the lockbox systems the Realtor board stuff the MLS
- 11:11you know connecting you with
- 11:12you know
- 11:12the top of the top industry partners and lenders
- 11:15and so on and so that's great
- 11:18and you have them to help you answer those questions on
- 11:21you know
- 11:22the contracts and what box to fill in and so on
- 11:25and then you have another layer of value
- 11:26within the broker however
- 11:28the mentor is in a position so that you're not like
- 11:30oh I have to go ask the broker
- 11:31what box to check on this contract right
- 11:33we sometimes
- 11:34we don't wanna bother them with those silly things
- 11:36but they are ultimately important
- 11:38and we wanna make sure that you have somebody
- 11:40local to help you understand that piece
- 11:43and the truth is
- 11:45if you're a new agent and you're with somebody local
- 11:47sometimes more times than not
- 11:49there's kind of a secret sauce kind of feel right
- 11:52oh well
- 11:53this person I'm not gonna give them all my secrets
- 11:55because then they're gonna be competition
- 11:57and anyone in your market is gonna be competition
- 12:00so there's very few people that think that
- 12:02that don't think that way
- 12:04and they are out there I will tell you
- 12:07however with this model
- 12:09you have the entire Wolf Pack behind you
- 12:11have the entire EXP team behind you
- 12:14and your mentor is more for
- 12:16you know the nuts and bolts of writing a contract
- 12:19and getting deals to the closing table
- 12:21then you add on the cloud based brokerage
- 12:23which allows you to possibly work a job
- 12:25so you're putting food on the table
- 12:26so the stress level isn't getting to you
- 12:28because it does take time to get
- 12:30momentum in this industry
- 12:31and close transactions
- 12:33and even once we go under contract on a transaction
- 12:35it could be 30 to 60 days before
- 12:37you know that closes
- 12:38and obviously through the contract process
- 12:40things happen we don't want you to be in a position
- 12:43where the transaction in that payday
- 12:45is so important to you
- 12:46that you're not providing that ultimate experience
- 12:49then you have healthcare you have stock options
- 12:52you have revenue share and private support
- 12:55from the people that you grow in the community with
- 12:58in the Wolf Pack that will absolutely
- 13:00help you take your business to the next level
- 13:01and get through the muck and the
- 13:05difficulty of being a successful real estate agent
- 13:08so this isn't just a course
- 13:10this isn't just something that we have
- 13:12you know as vanity value
- 13:14this is a community
- 13:15and ultimately our goal is to help you succeed
- 13:19it doesn't cost anything extra
- 13:21with the revenue share model
- 13:22we get paid from your split with the XP
- 13:24which is ultra competitive at 80
- 13:2620 with a 16 thousand dollar cap
- 13:28we have access to teams
- 13:30anybody you can join a revenue share organization
- 13:32if all of a sudden you need a team
- 13:34you need to get on some of those Zillow leads
- 13:36heaven forbid
- 13:37we have access to teams within our brokerage
- 13:40that you can certainly join that team
- 13:42and still be in the revenue share organization
- 13:44start to build your YouTube channel in the background
- 13:46or whatever it is and so this isn't just a course
- 13:49this isn't just a couple you know
- 13:51KPIs for you to work through
- 13:53call 200 people a day or whatever
- 13:55this is a full support system and ecosystem
- 13:58for you to take your business from where you are
- 14:01to where you wanna be so
- 14:03the critical mistake that I am urging you to avoid
- 14:07is to just pick a sponsor
- 14:08to pick a sponsor if you like the value here
- 14:12go ahead and book a call
- 14:14re agent wolfpack.com and we can have a conversation
- 14:17it doesn't mean that your brother or your cousin that's
- 14:20you know in a different market or in your same market
- 14:23can't be a part of your organization
- 14:25because now we have co sponsorship
- 14:27however for you to understand
- 14:29the value that they offer in their upline offers
- 14:32and the value that we offer
- 14:33and our upline offers is Paramount to your success
- 14:37or maybe it's not us
- 14:38but maybe it's a different organization
- 14:40you wanna make sure that you can understand this model
- 14:43so that you can maximize the value
- 14:45so where you are
- 14:47you have resources where you're you know
- 14:49when you're growing
- 14:49you have resources and when you're ready to scale
- 14:52you have resources and ultimately
- 14:55it's up to you match the values up
- 14:57talk about the values and then say OK
- 14:59I'm in this sounds like a perfect fit for me
- 15:02and we we're off to the races
- 15:04whether it's co sponsorship sponsorship or not at all
- 15:07and just you know
- 15:08an advisor to you in this crazy
- 15:10difficult decision of choosing a brokerage
- 15:13as a new agent we are here for you to help
- 15:15and make sure that you maximize
- 15:18on the value of this decision
- 15:20so many people are just like okay
- 15:21well my cousin said to join here and you know
- 15:24they do part time construction and I'm doing part time
- 15:27so that's gonna be great well
- 15:28the truth is if they're not full time in it
- 15:30what's the resources
- 15:32and value that they're going to get
- 15:34and like I said with co sponsorship
- 15:35they don't have to be cut out
- 15:36you don't have to hurt any feelings
- 15:38they can still be a part of your story
- 15:40they can still earn revenue share from the EXP dollar
- 15:42when you close a transaction however
- 15:45how many transactions will you be closing
- 15:47if you're out there on an island
- 15:49and you don't have somebody local
- 15:51and you don't have anybody doing this
- 15:53and you have one person who's telling you to do it
- 15:55the way that they did it
- 15:56and they're hammering that into your head
- 15:58which is traditional
- 15:59at these traditional brick and mortar brokerages
- 16:01how is that any fun
- 16:03how is that anything different than your 9 to 5
- 16:06that you maybe left or maybe didn't even get into
- 16:09so
- 16:09we have to understand that this is a critical juncture
- 16:12if you are considering EXP
- 16:15make sure that you vet the sponsor
- 16:16you talk about the value that they offer
- 16:18the six people above them offer
- 16:20and you can make an educated decision
- 16:23because this decision matters
- 16:25I have had agents
- 16:26that have been at eight to 10 brokerages
- 16:28who I can connect you with
- 16:29right as a testimonial or as a quick call
- 16:32and they all say the same thing right
- 16:35I didn't join EXP I joined the Wolf Pack
- 16:38and the Wolf Pack showed me the way to EXP
- 16:41and showed me how amazing that brokerage really can be
- 16:44when leveraged properly with the right connections
- 16:46and so as we kind of round this out
- 16:50make sure that you are asking these questions
- 16:52make sure that you are understanding
- 16:53exactly what it takes and if that
- 16:55if you do all these things
- 16:56and you check all these boxes
