An agent\u2019s failure to earn enough income in real estate sales begins with the fact that most agents have the wrong definition for success in the business\u2014a belief that success in real estate sales is something that, if they do the right things repeatedly, will happen over time.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s that prevalent, but faulty, definition for success that underpins the main reason why so many real estate agents fail in the business. Looking down from the 30,000-foot level, there are only two possible approaches toward success in real estate sales: a now model and a future model. And, unfortunately, the real estate industry is in fact dominated by the latter future model.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How so? Basically, in that\u2014both traditionally and currently\u2014the generally accepted approach is focused on the idea of building momentum over time for success to happen eventually, someday. That pervasive future focus throughout the industry is a career-defeating challenge for most real estate agents who fall under its sway.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everybody is working to succeed\u2026 but later. This approach is widely accepted as \u201cthe way it is\u201d<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">by the very people who are otherwise supposed to set the right example: brokers, managers, veterans, mentors and, yes, even coaches.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But hey, wait a minute! Isn\u2019t it good advice for an agent to shoot for a successful career in the business? It most certainly is. Yet, it comes with a catch. Namely, that you have to be able to survive in the meantime. And statistically speaking, most agents don\u2019t. Consider this: purportedly, nearly 90% of all new agents fail to make enough money and, consequently, leave the business within their first several years, with most bailing out within their first year and a half, or so. Financially, it\u2019s a massacre of disaster and, unfortunately, the unvarnished truth in real estate sales.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hmm\u2026 So, you wonder, how does this future-model thing actually tick? Generally, it can be distilled down to just a few points:<\/span><\/p><ol><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A tendency to prioritize building out systems for success.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ol><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Real estate agents easily get caught up in the busywork of various (and often expensive) systems dedicated to working over the span of time which push the availability of success far down the road: systems for lead generation, client data management, email campaigning, social media posting, agent branding, geo-farming, newsletters, past-client &amp; referral programs\u2026 The list goes on and on.<\/span><\/p><ol><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0A dependance on presentation practices.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Presentation is an approach that, by design, works to keep the flow of information headed away from you and toward the people you\u2019re trying to reach. Striving to make an impression. Aiming to build rapport. Developing and establishing your brand. Positioning to be known as the expert. And, of course, the classic: offering to be of service. Such traditionally accepted presentation stratagems actually push potential-client response time off into the future and, in effect, delay your success.<\/span><\/p><ol><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An overreliance on indirect communication.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Things like social media, email, text, online presence, marketing outreach, and advertising efforts. All of which, in terms of response, means you have to wait for people to (hopefully) contact you back someday. Indirect communication is typically coupled with an under-reliance on actually talking with people directly\u2014face-to-face or ear-to-ear\u2014a practice that is typically not done well or enough\u2026<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Systems setup, presentation tactics, and indirect communication all have their place and, if done effectively, ultimately do work. But they also unavoidably come with a lot of, what I call, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">breakage<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. They take a lot of time to kick in and work; many years for most people, really. They also require the right know-how, which can be elusive and hard to find. On top of that, they can be complicated and, thus, difficult to implement. And these methods often take money, money, and more money to support, set up, and maintain. Money a real estate agent may not have.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using these methods to warehouse leads, or build up those potential-clients that will be ready to buy or sell in the future, can be effective, but only if you\u2019re all-in on the future model. This isn\u2019t sustainable for those real estate agents who are just beginning though. Leads don\u2019t have a reliable shelf life, and a newer agent can\u2019t turn to a warehoused lead whenever they please. A client is only ready when they say they are.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, how might agents who desire financial success in real estate sales avoid the industry-dominant fate of failure? By opting out of a sole reliance on the future-model approach and alternatively (or additionally) adding a now model for success to their business.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a now model comes a new definition for success in real estate sales. One that isn\u2019t the industry norm of potentially succeeding someday off in the future. In fact, just the opposite: it is the expectation and practice of actually succeeding in the near-term, beginning today. And it\u2019s a career-changing definition that maintains you can do business sooner versus later. You don\u2019t have to wait to make a lot more money in real estate sales\u2014 regardless of your level of experience, the systems you have in place, or how much time and money you spend.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I liken the now model to a rain making model while the future model is a water management model. In the future model, rain has already fallen and collected in a reservoir. It takes time and money to treat the water and ration it properly. The now model collects the rain as it falls, and it falls more often than you think. By entering Discovery mode and engaging in conversations with potential clients, you can find out what they want right now.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, you may get responses that suggest a future model approach: \u201cWe aren\u2019t ready to buy right now. We\u2019ll be ready in the summer.\u201d It may seem obvious to put them on your emailing list and engage them every week till they are ready, but that may just push them away. Instead, when summer approaches, reprospect them!\u00a0 Reintroduce yourself and treat that moment in the now. Change is constant, and the permutations, or effects, of change in their life may have influenced a new direction in what those potential clients will or won\u2019t do when it comes to purchasing or selling a property . All you have to do is have a discussion of discovery with them that enables you to find out.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What a now model does is work to bring in business near term because, unlike the long-term emphasis on systems with a future model, a now model is a skill model. With the right expertise, you don\u2019t have to wait to generate new business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That&#8217;s why I created <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Production Model<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. A unique and proven skills development program dedicated to helping agents raise their ability to make more money faster and easier in their day-to-day business of real estate sales.
