Season 8 Outro

It’s the end of the season as we know it. It’s the end of the season as we know it. And we feel fine. (Name that song!) The verdict is in! Season 8 is the greatest Season 8 ever of the Boom Real Estate Podcast!

Episode 256 (Season 8, Episode 9)

Create Supplemental Income

I think we can all agree on two things:  1) red M&M’s are the best and 2) things have been tough with real estate lately.

We all love it when everyone is selling their homes, but how do we handle those moments when things are slow? We preach to “double down” on your real estate efforts, but if you must, looking for another source of income may be the preferred solution.

Let’s explore some options and dive deep into the Wright Brothers. We’ll also listen to Megan recoil in horror after being set up by Todd to fun of dentists! Always fun to see Megan squirm!

Episode 254 (Season 8, Episode 7)

Build Your Brand

If there was ever an episode that we did our best to avoid offering details on real estate-related materials, this might be the one!

Frankly, there is more talk about Adam Driver than brand marketing. So much so that we’re worried that Mr. Driver himself may come after us! (Especially considering that he has family in Indiana, so we’re basically in his backyard!)

If you’re short on time, the main takeaway is to work on building your brand, since it’s essential to the success of your business.

However, If you’re long on time, enjoy our talks about peeing your pants, Indiana’s criminal class, and a flashback to our locally famous LinkedIn episodes! Great stuff…we think!

Episode 253 (Season 8, Episode 6)

Love on Your Sphere

The Team needed some time off to do their own independent research about air conditioning systems in cars. Unfortunately, they still disagree. Fortunately, Todd is still right! [This is still being actively disputed. - editor]

Episode 252 (Season 8, Episode 5)

Tighten Up Your Lead Followup

Before you can have a tight business, you need a tight you! How’s do you perform on the “sit-and-reach” test? Can you do the splits? Do you jog?

Go ahead and test all those things, send us the results, and then continue to listen to this podcast episode where we dive deep into tightening up your lead gen followup!

One of the biggest things we agents omit in real estate business is the people we already know that will eventually be engaging in a real estate transaction. We get their attention but we don’t keep their attention. That’s where we need to refine our lead follow up game!

Episode 251 (Season 8, Episode 4)

Increase Your Lead Gen Efforts

We don’t even know where to start, so we’ll just be blunt with you. The Boom Team, (mostly Todd and Terry), spent the first 15 minutes of this episode, (and much of the rest), fighting about how a car’s A/C works. Did either win the argument? You’ll have to listen to weigh in.

So to recap, on our 251st episode, we simultaneously put together what could be argued as both the best and worst episode ever! Who do you stand with—Team Terry or Team Todd?

Give it a listen and let us know if you think this was great or awful. Also, let us know your thoughts are on how you think air conditioning works. Oh, and learn about the importance of increasing your lead gen efforts, too.

Season 7 Outro

What a Season 7 it has been! The Boom Team entered the season asking an age old question:  Can you actually be happy in real estate? And, by the end of the season, they proved you truly can be happy in real estate!

The truth is you CAN be happy in real estate, but it doesn’t mean that it will just magically happen for you. It will take work, focus, and dedication. But if you plan properly, you too can be happy in real estate!

Thank you for joining us for another dynamite season of advice, thoughts, and shenanigans! We enjoy what we do and hope you find joy in what you do as well! The whole Boom Team hopes you reach all of your real estate goals this year—all while experiencing the true joy of a well rounded life! Hoots to you!

Vacation - When You Get Back

Welcome back! We all hope you had a great vacation, but frankly, it’s time to get back to business! The question is, just how do you do that?

Well, fortunately for you, the Boom Team listened to another podcast that help us understand how to do just that. Now we’re ready to teach you everything we’ve learned.

You’ll need a pad of paper, a pencil, and some aloe vera (preferably refrigerated), as we get ready to get back into the swing of things and take care of that nasty sunburn. Welcome back from your best vacation ever!

Working Out

All the studies show that listening to the Boom Real Estate Podcast has the same physical benefits of a 30-minute circuit training session with THE premiere personal trainer. However, since the podcast only comes out once a week, we’ll need to fill the other six days a week with actual physical workouts. Whether or not you choose to workout with a personal trainer is up to you.

Join the Boom Team as they work up a sweat talking through all the benefits, dynamics, and how-tos of a solid workout. Sure, we’ll take a couple of rest breaks for Producer Christian’s winnings, Terry’s hate issues, Megan’s grace, and Todd’s first mini-stroke, but the rest of the show is pretty intense. If you have a heart condition, please proceed with caution. If you have a heart monitor, strap it on!

Fill Your Cup

Get ready—this episode is a three-tear one! Yes, that’s not a typo. The Boom Team gets together to elaborate on how to find joy in real estate, and fall apart into tears on three separate occasions!

Thankfully, those tears were all humor-induced and the Team is holding strong. Although, they would appreciate a “GoFundMe” drive to help raise funds for the elaborate vacations they’re all hoping to take. 

In short, get ready to learn how to find joy and fill your cup, along with best practices for an emergency plane landing. We also hear Producer Christian’s new jingle and get an introduction to Little Timmy! Fasten your seatbelt, sit back, and enjoy the flight!
