    From Overwhelmed to Unstoppable: Real Estate AI Made Real with Carrie Soave

    This episode is a wake-up call for every real estate agent who’s still “thinking about” AI instead of using it. I sat down with Carrie Soave, one of the most influential AI strategists in real estate, and we went ALL IN on what’s actually happening behind the scenes of our industry. We talked about how agents are slashing marketing costs, automating workflows that run their business even while they sleep, and using AI to generate leads without expensive lead-gen companies. But here’s the truth that every agent needs to hear: AI isn’t replacing agents — it’s elevating the ones who are ready to evolve.  Carrie breaks down why so many agents feel overwhelmed by tech, what’s really holding them back, and how AI can help you think faster, operate smarter, and build deeper client relationships with almost zero extra effort. Imagine remembering every client detail, automating follow-up, creating content in minutes, and having a digital team that never burns out. That’s what AI makes possible TODAY — not years from now. If you’re ready to stop guessing, stop fearing the tech, and finally step into the next era of real estate, this episode will flip the switch for you. AI is freedom. AI is leverage. AI is the edge top agents are already using. Tune in. Take notes. Your business won’t be the same after this one.   🎙️ Guest – Carrie Soave Join AI SOLUTION: https://www.skool.com/carrie-soave-and-associates/about?ref=798e3443d0714a14af48236f681a8b0b Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carriesoaveai/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CarrieSoaveRealtor/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carriesoave Website: https://carriesoave.ca/   🎙️ Host – Marguerite Crespillo Join Masterclass Real Estate Academy: masterclassreacademy.com Website: www.MargueriteCrespillo.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/margueritecrespillo Facebook: www.facebook.com/MySuccessTuneups TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@margueritecrespillo Link Hub: https://stan.store/thecrespillogroup

    Clients Over Closings: Win Big With These Tips Now

    This week, I sat down with none other than Brad Allen, co-owner and broker-in-charge at The Art of Real Estate, and a total powerhouse when it comes to building systems, scaling smart, and keeping the client experience front and center. We talk about: Brad Allen shares how he started from zero—literally—in a brand-new market where he knew no one, and how he built a thriving business rooted in relationships and results. We talk about why professionalism still matters, even in a world of viral TikToks and jean shorts, and how showing up like a pro can be your ultimate competitive edge. We also dive into the “messy middle” of today’s real estate landscape—lawsuits, commissions, AI, and everything in between—and how agents can stay grounded through it all. Brad reminds us that clients aren’t “crazy”—they’re often just confused, and it’s our job to provide the clarity they deserve. Most of all, this conversation is a testament to what’s possible when you build your business on grit, systems, and service—not gimmicks. Whether you’re a team leader, solo agent, or just someone trying to navigate this ever-changing market, Brad brings the kind of perspective this industry needs more of—honest, humble, and hella strategic. 🎧 LISTEN NOW and let’s raise the bar—together. 📍 Brad Allen Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheARTeam/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theartteam/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/theartteam Website: https://www.theartteam.net/ 🎙 Hosted by Marguerite Crespillo Website: www.MargueriteCrespillo.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MySuccessTuneups/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/margueritecrespillo/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@margueritecrespillo Link Hub: https://stan.store/thecrespillogroup 🛑 Bonus: I mention my book “100 Things I Love About You”—because love, like business, is better when it’s intentional. 💛 #RealEstateRealWorld #BradAllen #MargueriteCrespillo #TheArtOfRealEstate #ClientExperienceFirst #RealEstateLeadership #RaiseTheBarInRealEstate #GritOverGimmicks #RealEstateStrategy #AIInRealEstate #100ThingsILoveAboutYou #RelationshipMarketing #RealTalkRealEstate #RealtorLifeUnfiltered #MarieForleoStyle #CriminalMindsToClosings #RealEstateCoach #BrokerTalk #ThePowerOfRelationships
