    How to Stand Out With Creative Real Estate Client Events

    In this episode of the Unstoppable Real Estate Agents Podcast, we dive deep into the strategy of client appreciation events and how hosting them can drive new business and client referrals. While traditional events like the annual Thanksgiving pie giveaway are popular and successful, we explore how agents can stand out by choosing unique, customized events tailored to their local market and clientele.  Key Topics Discussed Strategic Planning for the Year:Why agents should map out client events for each quarter well in advance. Diversifying beyond standard holiday events to create memorable, standout experiences. Alternative Client Event Ideas:July 4th Theme: Celebrating early with a patriotic spin (e.g., giving out red, white, and blue pies like cherry, blueberry, and apple). Movie Theater Takeover: Renting out a theater with options for family-friendly films and more mature movie screenings, complete with popcorn and drinks. Fall/Spring Photoshoot: Partnering with a local nursery or pumpkin patch and a photographer to offer mini-photo sessions, digital downloads, and community networking. Local Sports & Community Activities: Buying blocks of tickets to local baseball games or tailoring events to what people in your specific market love to do. The "System" Behind the Event:Client appreciation events rely on a repeatable system regardless of the specific activity. Budgeting for expenses, securing resources or venue space, and partnering with local businesses (lenders, bakeries, photographers) to share costs. The importance of leveraging delegation: utilizing assistants, virtual assistants, or family members to help handle check-ins and logistics so the agent can focus on mingling and building relationships. Resources & Links: Thanksgiving Pie Event System: https://www.kimhughes.com/thanksgiving-pie-event-system/ Real Estate Systems Snapshot: https://www.kimhughes.com/real-estate-systems-snapshot/ Read the Blog: https://www.kimhughes.com/how-to-stand-out-with-creative-real-estate-client-events/ Additional Resources: 📩 FREE RESOURCE: Download my Complete Checklist – 72 To-Do’s to Dominate Success in Real Estate to supercharge your strategy! https://www.kimhughes.com/72-to-dos/ Visit my website for FREE Templates: https://www.kimhughes.com/resources/free-downloads/ Power Strategy Call – Best 30 minutes you will ever spend discussing the struggles in your business as we create solutions that will set you up for unbelievable success!

    The Testimonial Formula That Works

    In this episode of The Unstoppable Real Estate Agents Podcast, we dive deep into actionable strategies for securing powerful testimonials from past clients and integrating them directly into your branding portfolio to drive major business success.  Key Takeaways & Strategies Define Your Branding Portfolio: Your portfolio encompasses your website, listing presentations, pre-listing presentations, social media posts, and anywhere else your brand lives. Every testimonial should have a designated spot within this branding ecosystem. Shift Your Mindset on Asking: While many agents feel uncomfortable asking for reviews, your clients want to give you a testimonial if you provided a great experience. Make asking for feedback a seamless part of your closing process. Strike While the Iron Is Hot: Send a text or email message within roughly 30 minutes to a few hours after closing. Prompt clients with specific questions—such as how you helped them find their dream home or specific goals they had—to encourage deep, meaningful feedback. Build a Persistent Follow-Up System: Maintain communication for at least 30 days post-closing. If you don't get a review right away, be persistent by following up via text, phone, or email at key intervals (e.g., a few days later, a week later). Leverage Video Testimonials: Drop off a closing gift and ask to record a quick video testimonial on-site (like a back porch or living room). Video testimonials speak volumes and can easily be transcribed into written content, pictures, or social media posts. Tap Into Your Past Database: In slower markets, don't hesitate to look back over the past two years (or further). Pick up the phone, check in on past clients, and ask for those missing reviews. These conversations frequently open the door to new listings and referrals. Resources & Links Real Estate Systems Snapshot: https://www.kimhughes.com/real-estate-systems-snapshot/ Read the Blog: https://www.kimhughes.com/the-testimonial-formula-that-works/ Additional Resources: 📩 FREE RESOURCE: Download my Complete Checklist – 72 To-Do’s to Dominate Success in Real Estate to supercharge your strategy! https://www.kimhughes.com/72-to-dos/ Visit my website for FREE Templates: https://www.kimhughes.com/resources/free-downloads/ Power Strategy Call – Best 30 minutes you will ever spend discussing the struggles in your business as we create solutions that will set you up for unbelievable success!

    You Were Trained Wrong in Year One

    Are you five, ten, or fifteen years into your real estate career, still dreading the exact same tasks you were handed in your first ninety days? If you still hate calling your sphere, hosting open houses, or farming a neighborhood, you’ve likely blamed your own discipline or mindset. In this episode of The Unstoppable Real estate Agents Podcast, we break down why that guilt is entirely misplaced. You don’t have a personality problem—you have a systems problem. Discover why standard real estate training gives you verbs without infrastructure, how layering new tech and CRM tools on a broken foundation only compounds the exhaustion, and why the "boring work" of building back-end systems is the true secret to sustainable success. 🔑 Key Takeaways & Core Concepts Tasks Without Systems Disappear: The reason sphere calls and open houses feel so soul-crushing is that the information goes nowhere. When a task has no next step, it feels like shouting into a void.Stop Adding Tools to a Broken Foundation: Buying more leads, upgrading your CRM, or setting strict time blocks won't fix a lack of infrastructure. You are adding at the wrong layer.Activities Are Just Front Doors: Sphere calls, open houses, and farming postcards are merely front doors. They only work when there is a house—a robust backend system—waiting behind them.The Four Essential Systems:Pre-ListingListing MarketingUnder ContractPast ClientThe Boring Work Is The Work: Breakthroughs don't come from a magical new mindset hack; they come from defining mundane processes so they run without relying on your daily motivation.Resources & Links: Real Estate Systems Snapshot: https://www.kimhughes.com/real-estate-systems-snapshot/ Read the Blog: https://www.kimhughes.com/you-were-trained-wrong/ Watch the Video: https://youtu.be/FFm_ijWlEts Additional Resources: 📩 FREE RESOURCE: Download my Complete Checklist – 72 To-Do’s to Dominate Success in Real Estate to supercharge your strategy! https://www.kimhughes.com/72-to-dos/ Visit my website for FREE Templates: https://www.kimhughes.com/resources/free-downloads/ Power Strategy Call – Best 30 minutes you will ever spend discussing the struggles in your business as we create solutions that will set you up for unbelievable success!

    The Empty Room That Runs Your Market

    There is a room in your city that is almost always empty. Bad lighting, folding chairs, six o’clock on a Tuesday. It is the planning and zoning meeting, and it is where the decisions about your market actually get made, months before anybody posts about it in a Facebook group. In this episode of the Unstoppable Real Estate Agents Podcast, we tell you about an agent who sat in that room for eight months thinking she was wasting her time, and what happened in month nine that turned into two referrals from a single past client. Then, we give you the six-step system for turning one boring Tuesday evening into your newsletter, your buyer conversation, your listing presentation, and a real reason to call the past client you have not spoken to in eight months. Most agents will not do this. That is exactly why it works. What You Will Learn ▪ The difference between community involvement and community knowledge, and why one of them is a marketing activity wearing a costume ▪ Why planning and zoning is the meeting to start with, and why you should not try to attend all three ▪ The four words to look for on any public agenda: rezone, variance, plat, development ▪ The three questions to ask yourself while you are sitting in the meeting, and why the third one is the whole thing ▪ How one evening a month feeds four systems you already have and are probably not using consistently Resources & Links: Real Estate Systems Snapshot: https://www.kimhughes.com/real-estate-systems-snapshot/ Read the Blog: https://www.kimhughes.com/the-empty-room-that-runs-your-market/ Watch the Video: https://youtu.be/oshca3wHD1M Additional Resources: 📩 FREE RESOURCE: Download my Complete Checklist – 72 To-Do’s to Dominate Success in Real Estate to supercharge your strategy! https://www.kimhughes.com/72-to-dos/ Visit my website for FREE Templates: https://www.kimhughes.com/resources/free-downloads/ Power Strategy Call – Best 30 minutes you will ever spend discussing the struggles in your business as we create solutions that will set you up for unbelievable success!
