In this value-packed episode of Because Business is Personal, I dive deep with three Realtors who've achieved what most in their industry only dream of: consistent success without harassing friends and family, wasting money on expensive and useless marketing, or ultimately burning out.

Michael McKinley, Conner Nielsen, and Josh White share the exact strategies that helped them generate over $47 million in sales in 2024, including:

  • Josh's lucrative builder relationships that now have him earning commissions on homes he's never seen for buyers he's never met
  • Mike's revolutionary 10-minute consultation approach (complete with the "$100 bill promise" that instantly sets him apart from every other agent)
  • Conner's remarkable story of turning an initial rejection into a closed deal through authentic relationship building
  • The "16-8-2 triangle" that creates predictable income with far fewer leads than most agents chase

Unlike theoretical advice from coaches who haven't sold a home in years (if ever), these active Realtors share what's working right now in today's market.

Whether you're in real estate or any relationship-based business, this conversation reveals how focusing on quality connections and genuine service creates more sustainable success than traditional "hustle and grind" approaches.

In this episode, Agnes Roter, VP of Marketing and Ecommerce at The Source, we flip the script a bit, and instead of me interviewing Agnes, Agnes interviews me! This all came about after she read my book, Empathic Marketing and sent me an email with a dozen follow up questions.

The interview starts with Agnes asking me some more personal questions about how I made the transition from paramedic to marketer. She had questions about the letters after my name, some of the people I've met, and the history of all the animals we share our home with.

We then move onto some marketing talk. We delve into the book's opening story, where a young girl named Katie loses her arm in an accident. I explain how I used empathic marketing principles to connect with Katie during her recovery and how these same principles can be applied in marketing. We talk about the challenges of being truly empathetic in our field and the power of storytelling. I outline the five steps of empathic marketing and touch on the difficulty of crafting a compelling hook. We wrap up the conversation by discussing my natural curiosity and what Agnes perceives as a strong work ethic.

Takeaways:

  • My journey from being a paramedic to diving into the world of marketing
  • Why empathy is crucial in marketing and truly understanding the end user
  • The surprising connections and stories I've discovered through my podcast
  • My love for animals and a sneak peek into my upcoming book about training my mischievous dog, Biko
  • Empathic marketing is all about seeing things from the customer's perspective and addressing their needs and pains before promoting any products or services
  • Storytelling in marketing is powerful because it creates a bond with the audience, making the message more relatable
  • The five steps of empathic marketing: understanding the audience, crafting a compelling hook, identifying a unique differentiator, developing an irresistible offer, and addressing the audience's false limiting beliefs
  • Being empathetic in marketing can be tough, especially with the lack of empathy in society and the focus on short-term results
  • Curiosity and a strong work ethic are essential traits for success in marketing and business
  • AI and technology should enhance customer-centric marketing strategies, not replace the human connection and empathy

Risa's inspiring journey starts in a small enchanting town in South Africa, awash with magnificent purple jacarandas.

Ever pondered the potential pitfalls of starting a business or employing family members? We delve into a client's story, revealing the dangers of co-dependency in a family-run business and how understanding this dynamic can lead to enduring benefits. In this age dominated by social media, maintaining the right mindset can be a game changer. Discover the 12 universal laws as sturdy tools to combat imposter syndrome, understand how social media can fuel feelings of inadequacy, and grasp the value of showcasing the journey and struggle, not just the polished end result.

The word 'failure', often inducing fear, is merely another stepping stone towards growth. As our conversation evolves, we discuss the importance of reframing our missteps as opportunities for growth. Learn the art of self-evaluation to streamline workload and avoid overestimating daily achievements. Nearing the end, we probe into financial decision-making. Listen to effective strategies on managing finances, even when it seems daunting, and employ the thinking-feeling-acting cycle to overcome procrastination, understand poor decision-making, and make choices that resonate with your best interests.

With his dry wit and candid stories, Curt delves into his personal journey, from his unforeseen Facebook ban to his appreciation for copywriting and messaging. He's got a fresh perspective on life shaped by his recent journey into fatherhood, which has sparked an emphasis on valuing experiences over material possessions.
