It doesn’t matter how much you make…. Breaking poor money habits and building healthy ones is the only thing that will get you the financial freedom you want. Money is hard to talk (or even think) about for a lot of people. It’s complicated and uncomfortable, and our spending habits often stem from our earliest experiences. But if you want to conquer any debt you may have and start saving MASSIVE amounts of money, it starts with breaking poor money habits and replacing them with wise ones. In th...

What is a listing chain reaction? Let me explain… Having a listing is always a blessing, but the best thing about it is the opportunity to promote that listing in a way that attracts the attention of all the neighbors and convinces them to want the same. This is why people say that when one house sells, all the other houses on the block start selling too – because of the awesome marketing. On this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana shares 20 listing promotion strategies that create...

If you’re running plays that aren’t working or justifying habits that aren’t serving you, why? The most likely explanation is confirmation bias. Your biases control the stories you tell yourself about what you can do, are willing to do, and are afraid of. In this Mindset Monday, we’re going to make a serious inquiry into what your biases are, then explore a better, truer story to tell yourself.

What comes to mind when you think of heroic action? For me, it’s Levi Rodgers. It’s not just the fact that he nearly died in combat while serving in the Green Berets. And it’s not just that he went from being a wounded veteran in a new city to running the largest real estate team it’s ever seen. What makes Levi a man of heroic action is not just one thing – it’s his lifetime dedication to acting on the largest scale possible to serve as many people as he can. In my book, that is the definition o...

Real estate print marketing is getting overlooked in favor of digital channels. Now, I’m not saying that digital channels aren’t vital (they are), but if you’re not taking advantage of print, you might be missing the key to grabbing the attention and emotions of buyers and sellers. (Did you know that print mailers are SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN to cause a greater emotional response?!) In this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana talks with the President of Reminder Media, Luke Acree, abou...

Want to make 2024 the best year of your life? Start by getting uncomfortable. Human beings spend a remarkable amount of time and energy attempting to avoid discomfort. But why? I’d argue that intentionally making yourself uncomfortable is the only way to break through to the results you desire, and that’s what we’re discussing in this Mindset Monday.

You may have noticed that we’ve been talking a lot about building a real estate brand on my channels. In an environment this competitive, it’s not enough to grab attention; you need to make consumers CARE about your marketing – and that’s what having a brand is all about. The only problem is that many agents don’t understand what building a real estate brand entails. Lucky for you, for this episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience, I’m sharing a clip from our recent Success Summit where I tal...

Building a personal real estate brand is not about simply creating content or acting in a certain way. For Shannon Gillette, a personal real estate brand is all about telling the story of who you authentically are – and then leveraging strategic social media marketing to maximize the long-term efficiency of your content. Sounds complicated, right? Well, it’s not when she explains it. In this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana interviews Shannon about her unconventional path to find...

Superman isn’t coming to fix the real estate market; that’s just a fact. The only people who can fix the real estate market are informed, hard-working real estate agents and the clients they serve. And that’s not just coming from me – it’s coming from real estate legend Steve Harney, the founder of Keeping Current Matters. For this week’s podcast, I felt the need to share a clip from my recent Success Summit that should be required viewing for every agent. Steve Harney is answering some of the m...

The agent of the future is not the agent who goes with the flow of the market – the agent of the future is the one who rises above the market when it begins to shift downwards. History shows that when everyone else is pulling their advertising budgets, the companies who double down are the ones who shoot to the top. That means NOW is your moment to seize your marketplace and establish an undefeatable brand. In this episode of This Week in Marketing, Jason Pantana shows you some of the most impor...

We as business owners can have a funny way of viewing time. Everyone is hungry for immediate results, so we measure our potential and growth in terms of what we can accomplish in one or two years. But what if you expand your view to see further into both the past and the future? What did you build, and what are you building over time? That’s what we’re doing together on this Mindset Monday.

Marketing channels that appreciate over time are sadly overlooked by too many real estate agents. Yes, platforms like Instagram or TikTok are great, but they’re a lot like riding a bike… they’re only taking you somewhere as long as you keep pedaling. While you should still be running with those, there are other platforms that, when leveraged in the right way, can allow your hard-made content to keep reaping benefits for months or even years to come – and I know how much care you put into your co...

The best AI tools for real estate agents aren’t always the ones you would expect. That’s because AI has not just made it easier to automate certain tasks you already do – it has opened a world for you to do things that wouldn’t have even been possible before, one where you can innovate and blow away the competition with creativity instead of just marketing dollars. We’re in an AI world, and the agent who is ahead of the game will be the one who wins. On this episode of This Week in Marketing, Ja...

What are the most common real estate questions that agents ask me and my coaches? They change every year. A large part of my job as a coach is to answer questions, so I’ve gotten into the habit of writing down every question that anyone asks me, whether it’s about the market, client interactions, today’s best marketing strategies, Ai, or anything else. A few days before Summit, I take this list of a thousand or so questions, study it, and then synthesize it down to what people are REALLY asking....

Real estate social media video performance isn’t just about the amount of people you reach; it’s about the specific audience you want to reach.
