Agents Are Missing Out on the Downsizing Market: Here’s How to Cash In w/ Kathy Chiero | Episode 114
Real Producers
Agents are struggling to generate consistent listing leads, especially in a market where inventory is tight and sellers are sitting on low-interest-rate homes. But what if there was an overlooked niche that’s not only highly motivated, but also underserved? That’s where the downsizing demographic comes in. Homeowners over 55 aren’t just thinking about selling, they’re actively planning for it. They don’t need more space or better school districts. They need someone who understands the emotional and logistical complexities of selling a home they’ve lived in for decades....

Real Producers
Could a career in retail actually be the perfect launchpad for a thriving career in real estate? It might sound surprising, but the skills you build in retail, like reading people, earning trust quickly, and delivering top-tier customer service, are exactly what you need to succeed in real estate, especially at the luxury level.

MLS Battles, Market Pressure and Leading Through It All w/ Jenny Wemert | Episode 112
Real Producers
A lot of interesting things are happening in real estate right now. The more agents are aware of the market forces shaping today’s landscape, the better equipped they are to adapt, and thrive. One big issue is the clear corporation debate. On one side, luxury agents are keeping listings private, relying on off-market deals and exclusive networks to serve high-end clients. On the other hand, traditional agents are fighting to maintain transparency and access through the MLS, for buyers and sellers who actually need it. At the same time, a different kind of rift is unfolding: Sellers are...

From Stuck to Sold: The Mindset Shift That Transforms Real Estate Careers w/ Greg Reid | Episode 111
Real Producers
Too many real estate pros settle for “good enough,” believing the next level, more listings, higher commissions, true freedom, is out of reach. The truth is: real estate success doesn’t come from luck, it comes from clarity, confidence, and the courage to ask for what you want. Top producers aren’t just winging it. They’re intentional. They ask bold questions. They go after mentorship. They’re clear on where they’re headed and who can help them get there. You can get what you want in this business, but it starts with asking the right questions and being specific about what...

Most people dream of breaking into luxury real estate, imagining a glamorous life of lavish parties, jaw-dropping listings, and red-carpet moments.

Risk Is the Ultimate Shortcut to Real Estate Growth w/ Sam Stone | Episode 109
Real Producers
In real estate, success often feels like it's just out of reach. We see others climbing to new heights, owning multiple properties, building vast networks, and achieving financial freedom, but rarely do we hear about the risks they took to get there. The truth is, we all want success without understanding the sacrifices and risks successful people face. It's easy to envy their achievements without recognizing the challenges that come with the journey. But here's the reality: without risks, you won't learn. Growth in real estate (and life, for that matter) is all about stepping outside of...

Great Real Estate Leaders Get Vulnerable to Grow...Here's Why w/ Keith James | Episode 108
Real Producers
On this podcast, we’ve seen many traits and habits that lead to real estate success. Of course, drive, discipline, and sales mastery are necessary if you want to build an awesome business and legacy. But the exceptional agents we feature on this show have another thing in common. Their ability to withstand temporary pain in the pursuit of long-term growth. That pain takes on many forms: being vulnerable about where your business is bleeding. Receiving and applying feedback. Not focusing on flashy accolades like GCI and rather prioritizing net profit. Using...

How to Go From $5 Million to $16.8 Million By Being Yourself w/ Ryan Cecil | Episode 106
Real Producers
In some jobs, being authentic and outspoken on social media can get you fired. But in real estate, that authenticity could be the thing that separates you from cookie cutter agents and gets you hired by buyers and sellers. That was Ryan Cecil’s experience. After getting fired for her social media content, she found that real estate agents who show their personality attract more clients. Her online marketing and community-building efforts have created a highly successful real estate trajectory, going from $5 million in sales to $16.8 million in just a few years. Ryan’s...

How a Real Estate Team of 8 Achieves the Production of 20 w/ Erin Krueger | Episode 105
Real Producers
In real estate, many agents who decide to build teams are focused on what the team will do for them. It’s often about using leverage for the team leader to achieve what they personally want. Maybe that’s why the industry has so many problems around perception and professionalism. What would happen if a leader built around the concept of how they impact others and focused on the “why” of their people? You get a solid culture, a ton of production, and an environment they’ll never want to leave. That’s what Erin Krueger built in Nashville. Her team is built so well...

The truth is: real estate success doesn’t come from luck, it comes from clarity, confidence, and the courage to ask for what you want. Top producers aren’t just winging it. They’re intentional. They ask bold questions. They go after mentorship. They’re clear on where they’re headed and who can help them get there.
You can get what you want in this business, but it starts with asking the right questions and being specific about what you're after.
Whether that’s finding the right mentor, learning from someone who’s built what you’re trying to build, or getting access to resources that shortcut your learning curve.
In this episode, I’m joined by award-winning author and entrepreneur Greg Reid. We dive into how to go after the life and business you want, and why you should never let someone’s opinion become your limit.
A dream written down with a date becomes a goal. A goal broken down into steps becomes a plan. A plan backed by action makes your dreams come true. -Greg Reid
