Surviving COVID, Scaling a Team & Stepping Back: James Rankin’s Full Story
In this episode of The BAI Show, we’re joined by the host himself, James Rankin, for an unfiltered solo episode that dives deep into his journey in real estate. James shares how he transitioned from working for developers to launching his own buyers agency, the moment he decided to quit his job and back himself, and the raw truth behind what it took to get traction, from doing 100 outreach messages a day to running 40 meetings a week. We dive into: how James signed his first clients, the biggest mistakes he made early on, why he worked night shifts during COVID to keep the business afloat, how he scaled out of the day-to-day and now coaches top buyers agents across the country, and What he’d do differently if he started over again. Whether you're a buyers agent, aspiring entrepreneur, or just curious about what it really takes to build a business from scratch, this is one of the most honest and practical episodes we’ve ever released. 🌐 Instagram: Achieve Financial Freedom & Transform Your Career by Becoming a Buyer’s Agent: 👉 🏠 Join our FREE property group @ 🌟 Check out our reviews @
