Rich & Balanced | Guest - Ryan Shields
Season One, Episode Ten | Real Estate Coffee Shop Podcast
 
 In this episode of the "Real Estate Coffee Shop Podcast", our guest is Ryan Shields, a REALTOR® at the Shields Group at Royal LePage Martin Liberty in Brandon, Manitoba. 

Ryan is very adamant that if you want to grow your real estate business … you should be looking to the past and not to the future. In his words, a profitable and balanced business won’t come from a shiny new piece of tech or the latest lead-generating site … instead, it will come from the meaningful relationships fostered with your past clients. 

We dig into how he keeps in contact with his database throughout the year, the success of his large and small client gatherings and the piece of tech that had a massive transformation in how he communicates with his sphere.

In this week’s “Bean There, Done That”, Ryan spills the beans on how agents can survive and thrive in this changing market.

This week’s mentioned news article … “BCREA forecasts steep decline in home sales.”

The interviews, masterminds and chats over coffee I’ve had with some of the brightest minds in the real estate industry have had an enormous impact on my 29-year real estate career. In this Podcast, I invite you to pull up a chair and join my guests and me as we discuss a wide range of real estate topics.

Long Black Tech Stack | Guest - Peter Schravemade
Season One, Episode Nine | Real Estate Coffee Shop Podcast

In this episode of the "Real Estate Coffee Shop Podcast", our guest is Peter Schravemade, who is the Managing Partner for REACH ASEA.

Peter Schravemade is perhaps best known for his ability to identify impactful real estate trends and discard time-consuming fleeting fads. We start our chat by having Peter rank his “Top 5” opportunities that REALTORS® might be missing in their marketing. For the main part of our conversation, Peter shares his views on how real estate, in particular, is an industry that can get a massive boost from the latest tech. He explains how an intentional approach to an agent’s “tech stack” will automate, streamline, and speed up an agent’s business. 

There are few people that focus on emerging real estate tech more than this week’s guest. Peter tells me why he is most excited about companies like Openn, which is a part of REACH Canada’s portfolio.

In this week’s “Bean There, Done That”, Peter spills the beans on what he wishes he could change about the real estate industry.

This week’s mentioned news article … “What You Might Have Been Missing Out on in Real Estate Marketing” by Chris D. Bently.

Robust Referrals | Guest - Lauren Goché
Season One, Episode Eight | Real Estate Coffee Shop Podcast

In this episode of the "Real Estate Coffee Shop Podcast", our guest is Lauren Goché who is a REALTOR® at Think Real Estate in Portland, Oregon.

My conversation with Lauren Goché went 180 degrees from where I thought it would go and that’s exactly what the Real Estate Coffee House podcast is all about. For almost 29 years I have approached agent-to-agent referrals one way. Minutes into my chat with Lauren, I realized that our team has been missing out on an entirely new income stream that also puts our industry's professionalism on display. My reaction to this conversation was 🤯 … I hope it is for you too.

In this week’s “Bean There, Done That” Lauren spills the beans on that activity that gives her the best ROI of her time and dollars.

This week’s mentioned article … “Enter: Stage Right”.
