Most agents are stuck in a cycle of chasing strangers. Cold calls, internet leads, Zillow ads, you name it. It feels productive, but the truth is, it’s a treadmill: exhausting, unsustainable, and guaranteed to burn you out.

What actually builds a long-term, stress-free business isn’t scripts or lead gen hacks. It’s relationships.

The agents who thrive aren’t chasing; they’re cultivating. They’re remembered, referred, and trusted because they’ve shifted from being just another salesperson to being a true advisor.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth: if your business resets to zero every January, if every deal feels like starting over, you don’t have a business, you have survival mode.

Real estate only becomes sustainable when you stop measuring your worth by closings and start anchoring it in trust, consistency, and connection.

How do we shift from chasing business to cultivating relationships?

In this episode, we kick-off a brand new series on cultivating relationships and how that will impact your business.

We dig into the mindset shift required to move from survival chasing to sustainable cultivating.

We also share the key differences between transactional and relational agents, why most of us cling to leads instead of going deep, and how vulnerability is the missing piece in building loyalty.

Things You’ll Learn In This Episode

-Chasing is a treadmill, not a strategy

Every January feels like starting from zero because chasing has no compounding value. How do you shift into creating momentum instead of having to reset?

-Trust is proven by your fee

Clients pay trusted advisors their full fee without hesitation. If you’re constantly being negotiated down, what does that reveal about how you’re positioned?

-Vulnerability is your superpower

Scripts don’t create loyalty, genuine connection does. How do you build deeper trust when you’re willing to risk rejection and reach out without a hidden agenda?
