Episode 201 (Season 4, Episode 11)

Sources for Resources of Courses

The Boom Team has reached their last full episode of the 4th Season! They spend their time breaking it all down to the “nitty gritty” of what’s needed to be successful as a virtual agent.

We cover technology, sites, and  even philosophies. We also rehash what it was like to do 200 episodes; what Megan immediately regretted saying; and laugh at Producer Christian’s best-timed sounder that had the group in tears!

Finally to wrap it all up in a big “Boom” bow, Todd ends it all with a “Todd’s Silly Segment” for the ages. There’s a ton in this one, so get your #2 pencil ready, along with a separate eraser, and there’ll be plenty to take away!

Episode 200 (Season 4, Episode 10)

Retain Remotely

Believe it or not, it’s EPISODE 200 of the Boom Real Estate Podcast. Can you believe we made it? For 200 episodes, we’ve delivered laughs, tears, and the most mediocre real estate content money can buy. (It’s a free podcast—you get what you pay for.)

To celebrate Number 200, we do absolutely nothing special. But we DO continue to deliver content about how to rock your real estate business virtually. In this one, we talk about how to RETAIN the great clients you worked so hard to gain. On the brokerage level, we touch on retaining agents and team members, despite NOT having an in-person office presence. It CAN be done, so let us show you how in this episode! (Plus we talk geese, dead sharks, and cougars!)

Cheers to #200!

Remote Recruiting Gone Wild

Season 4 rolls on with The Boom Team taking a moment to talk about recruiting like-minded agents to your team. But…how do we do it virtually?

Of course, as is the case most of the time, the Boom Team also takes several tangents to discuss important issues. Some of the weighty subjects we cover are:  1) What is Producer Christian wearing, 2) The value, (or lack thereof), of Silly Putty, and 3) Predictions on what might be coming our way…if we were making those predictions in the past.

Does your mind hurt a little just thinking about it? Ours too! In any event, all of this happens—and more—on Episode 199!
