Career Advancement Marketing Tips Realtor Success Tips
Do I Need a Real Estate Coach?
We already know the statistic – the one about most agents failing in their first couple of years in the business. So how about we go the other way?
What can you achieve when you pay someone knowledgeable, experienced, and well-connected to invest in your success?
Inman wrote a special report on real estate agents who are or were engaged with a real estate coach – and the results speak for themselves.
Around 85% of respondents reported an increased number of listings since hiring a coach, while 80% reported an increase in buyers.
Even more optimistically, around 35% reported up to a 25% increase in business during their first year in coaching, with 17% increasing their business by up to 99%.
Many respondents sought the guidance that thier brokerages failed to provide.
Why are There So Many Coaches on This List?
There’s a reason why a few elite coaching companies aren’t monopolizing the industry… There are so many ways to WIN!
One of the most exciting parts of writing this article was doing the research behind the different programs. There are some massive innovations going on in the trenches.
Leaders are creating not only unique ways to win business in the new normal, but also unique ways to deliver the coaching experience to real estate professionals.
You’ll see what I mean when you read some of the cool stuff these awesome people are doing – there’s great diversity not only in strategy and technique but in personality as well.
The point is that now more than ever, you have a good chance of finding the RIGHT coach who can unlock your potential and transform your business – and your life – for good.
Our goal with this article is to help you do your due diligence.
How to Choose the Right Real Estate Coach
Someone objective and knowledgeable in your field can keep you on track without dragging in their personal relationship with you. What gets measured, gets improved. In order to make serious progress you need to go over your wins and losses periodically.
Many agents set their own goals, but don’t have the mindset to maintain and achieve them.
Start with A SWOT Analysis
Each coach has a unique approach and while most can help provide support and introduce you to new strategies, not every coach will be the perfect one for your style of business.
If you’re unsure of how to pick the perfect coach, think about how you approach any other business partnership or venture. A quick SWOT analysis will give you some clarity by clearly defining Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats.
- Strengths: What are your best skills in real estate now (before coaching)? What factors make you an amazing real estate agent?
- Weaknesses: What are you not-so-good at? Which areas of your business could use some help from a professional real estate coach?
- Opportunities: Where do you see clear opportunities for growth in your business? Which opportunities could a coach help you achieve?
- Threats: What forces (internal or external) are limiting your professional growth?
This structure is regularly used across industries to predict the benefits of a wide range of business decisions. A SWOT analysis breaks down what you’re doing well, where you could use some extra help, necessary expert insight, and how you can make the biggest positive impact going forward. You can also apply this SWOT analysis to your potential coach options to see what the pros and cons would be to working with them.
We suggest adding 3-5 main points underneath each section of your SWOT analysis.
Find Your Real Estate Personality
To find a coaching program that works for you, you first need to discover what your niche or specialization will be. For example, if you’re an extroverted big thinker who has trouble keeping the small details in check, you may be great at cold calling and networking events, but inconsistent with your follow up. Find a coach that understands the challenges of an extrovert, but with the knowledge to guide you in the right direction and improve your attention to the small things.
A coach who has helped many agents succeed in the past will be able to quickly analyze your strengths and weaknesses to devise a strategy for improvement. Unlike colleagues or friends and family, professional coaches are outsiders who are not bogged down by the day to day concerns that can cloud your judgment.
Remember that real estate coaching doesn’t work for agents who don’t put in the work. A lot of agents make the mistake of signing up for coaching with the impression that the coach is the one who should be doing all the work. Coaching is partnership and an investment in you. Without your intentional action, your business will never grow or change.
Get the Free Stuff
We never skip the free samples at the grocery store. Why start now? Most, if not all, coaches offer loads of free eBooks, courses, scripts, business planners, and more on their websites.
Review Their Content
5-star reviews are a fantastic indication that the coach is competent… But does that mean that they’re a good fit for you?
We listed each coach’s most prolific content platform – be it blog, YouTube channel, or podcast – to give you somewhere to start.
Read the Fine Print
We tried to find as much information on pricing and contract terms as possible, but a lot of companies hide them behind a “call wall.”
This gives them a better chance to sell you on the program, and that’s a fair tactic! You want to learn from the best, don’t you?
Prepare for and be 100% present at your consultations, DON’T just scroll through the Terms and Conditions and don’t buy with emotion. Coaches themselves want to work with clients who are a good fit that can make the most out of their systems.
If you do sign up for coaching, go ALL IN!
This is a no-brainer! Make sure you get your money’s worth by being coachable.
