When it comes to the action needed to level up in real estate, there's a lot of movement, but not a lot of progress. There’s a lot of fire, but not enough aim. How does this affect teams and how successful they can be at growing? Why is focus so important in building a sustainable team? How does the mega-team conversation affect the whole industry? On this episode, Kathleen Black is back on the show to discuss her experience coaching and consulting with some of the best teams in the industry.
Takeaways + Tactics
Having too many lead gen pillars dilutes your effectiveness.
Compensation structure is one of the biggest mistakes people make when they’re building a team.

At the start of the show, Kathleen shared on the work she does, and we answered a question on one system we would implement in our businesses if money wasn’t an object. Next, we talked about why clarity of thinking is so important in scaling up, and how that can be a difficult thing for top producing rainmakers to do. We also talked about how successful people are incredibly cautious and why that is such a good thing. Towards the end of the show, we talked about what people get wrong with compensation structure, and why teams are more prepared for market corrections.

The biggest problem people have when trying to start a team is the lack of structure and vision. Success comes down to clarity of thinking, and wanting to grow without avoidable mistakes and unnecessary risk. Don’t try to reinvent the wheel, there’s already a proven method, so just go with it. Don’t try to create a car to drive to the top of the mountain one when one is already available. All you need to do is invest in it, commit to it, then you can get to be a visionary.
