Don’t Over Think It!
Last week while I was in Hawaii with my family I had the great opportunity to teach a class to some amazing Realtors in the area. The official topic for the day was:
Easy ways to leverage what you are already doing to get better results and have clients that love you.
As we went through the class and started delving into the various topics the theme for the day quickly became …
Don’t over think it
~ Make the call to your client to say hello and get caught up. There is not a magic phrase that if delivered correctly will turn into oddles of instant business so stop stessing, just be yourself and enjoy getting caught up with someone that you care about.
~ I have been mailing to my clients on a monthly basis for 12 years and EVERY mailing that I have ever sent out has a mistake in it. Yes, I proof read them and get them as close to perfect as I can before sending them to the printer but inevitably when I get them back there is something I missed or something about the format that I wish was different. I send them anyway.
~ Don’t get too caught up in connecting the dots in terms of basing who you stay in touch with on how much business you think that they will send you. This is one of those crazy laws of the Universe that just is what it is. All I know is that you have to give in order to recieve so make your day about truly building connections with people that you care about and the business will come in. It may be a crooked line in terms of how it gets to you, but it will be there.
So stop with the analysis paralysis and just move forward. So many people do NOTHING, so the fact that you did SOMETHING means that your miles ahead of the rest. And keep a sense of humor about the mistakes. Everyone else makes them too so when they see you make one chances are they are not thinking about how ridiculous it is that you made a mistake, but feeling completely relieved that they are not the only ones. 😉

What Do You LOVE About Your Business?
I’m back!!! There’s been a lot going on lately, (more on that in a later post) and it’s been a few weeks since I’ve sent you a note. Needless to say, I’ve missed you! I’ve been moving through a lot of ‘life’ lately, and there’s been a common thread in my business that has surprised…
How Do You Want Summer To Feel?
Summer is often a season of expectations not meeting reality. I used to think my perfect summer meant iced tea on the patio while reading every day. For the record, that’s never happened. And for a while, I felt bad about it — like I was missing out, like I was doing summer wrong. Until…
You’re Not Behind, There Are Infinite Options
Your in box is about to fill up with emails about us being 1/2 through the year. You know – the ones that ask if you’re on track with your goals, and offer a solution to whip you into shape for the next 6 months. If you are having a great year – I celebrate…
Letting Go Of The Hustle Sounds Great, But You’ve Got a Business To Run
To be clear, I am 100% for less hustle, more flow, manifesting, receiving, regulating my nervous system, and letting things be easier. But somewhere between: “That sounds amazing” and “I’m a real estate agent – I need to generate clients and sell houses to earn an income” Things can get confusing. Because no matter how…
The Beauty of Not Doing It Alone
Thank you for being part of this community! I learned something beautiful and powerful last week. It was vulnerable to post about recalibrating, and being in the messy middle of grieving. Yet the conversations, emails, texts and notes have meant to much. To know that we are not alone is one of the greatest gifts…
Recalibrate In a Business That Runs 24/7
It happens to me every year about this time. The need to recalibrate. In a business that can run 24/7 – it’s easy to look up one day and realize, your batteries are drained and there’s no break in sight. Side note – It doesn’t have to be a 24/7 thing, but that’s a topic…
It’s Okay For Things To Be Different
I often find myself comparing things. I compare my business this year to years past.I compare my health and fitness to where I was 10 years ago.I compare how I show up and experience different life events. On the one hand – it makes perfect sense. Our brains crave predictability. It calms our nervous system.…
I Used To Be So Afraid Of This…
I used to dread client conversations. Especially pricing conversations with sellers in a softer market, like we are in right now. I was afraid of letting them down. It came up this week with a new listing. They bought at the height of the market in 2022. Today’s prices are lower than that. How do…
What If Your Income Didn’t Depend On The Market?
There are multiple markets occurring right now – in the same cities, on the same streets. Sellers are experiencing it one way. Buyers are experiencing it another. And agents? All over the board. Same market. Completely different results. So what’s the difference? What you believe. What you look for. And how you show up. Two…
Permission To Fall Apart: The Truth About Resetting Your Energy
What if your next breakthrough is on the other side of your next melt down? There’s a side to energy and mindset work that no one talks about. Most teachings only talk about being positive. As in – ignore whatever you truly feel and pretend everything is amazing in hopes that you eventually believe it.…
