    From Sales Pitches to Storytelling: How to Craft Vulnerable AI-Powered Content w/Erica Hanna

    From Sales Pitches to Storytelling: How to Craft Vulnerable AI-Powered Content w/Erica Hanna

    In a marketing world that thrives on realness and authenticity on video, the typical real estate sales pitch just doesn't cut it anymore.
     
    The people who want to do business with us want stories and vulnerability, but many real estate professionals struggle to bring that forth in their content.
     
    From imposter syndrome, mindset blocks around AI, to an overwhelming editing process, there are many factors stacked against us articulating our stories and value propositions. Luckily, there’s a tool we can leverage to make it so much easier.
     
    How do we overcome imposter syndrome, own our stories and articulate them to the world? So many of us are sitting on a goldmine of content, how can Camcorder AI help us make use of it?
     
    In this episode, I’m joined by creative genius, Emmy-award winner, and co-founder of Camcorder AI, Erica Hanna. She shares how we can become better storytellers and how Prince helped her overcome imposter syndrome. 
     
    The difference between a story and a sales pitch is conflict and purpose. A story is going to have some sort of vulnerability, and a hurdle to overcome. -Erica Hanna
     
    Four Things You’ll Learn In This Episode 
     
    -How to be vulnerable on video 
    How does imposter syndrome harm our marketing and content creation efforts, and how do we overcome it?
     
    -What will get you hired
    People don’t hire the agent with the best sales pitch, they hire the agent they connect with the most. How do we use storytelling to draw people in?
     
    -The odds stacked against AI 
    Because so many of us are busy and perhaps even stretched too thin, women would benefit the most from leveraging AI. Why are so many of us struggling to adopt it?
     
    -Tap into readymade content 
    Many people already have a ton of great content, but the thought of going through it and editing it is overwhelming. Can AI do the heavy lifting for us?

    YouTube is the Netflix of Your Business: How to Get 10,000 Videos in 3 Steps w/Owen Video

    Most real estate professionals treat YouTube like it’s just another social media platform, but it’s so much more than that. YouTube is a lot more like Netflix, and if we play our cards right, we can get thousands of views, get people to know and like us, and generate more leads and deals.
     
    In order to unlock all the business potential that YouTube holds, we have to change our entire approach. Stop treating it like social media, make it the core of your content strategy and get people to binge watch your videos.

    Guest Bio
    James Rembert, trained marketing strategist who began his journey as a licensed Realtor in New Jersey. His natural transition to marketing and advertising was birthed out of the misleading and confusing information offered to the real estate industry. This made it difficult for Realtors to generate quality leads & scale their real estate business. While setting out to solve the puzzle of lead generation for his own business, James was able to change the landscape of the real estate marketing industry by not only making lead generation easier to understand, but also making it accessible.

    He’s since built a thriving boutique advertising agency in Philadelphia Digital Natives Inc.& ROAS consultant, that exclusively services the real estate industry with accounts nationwide. His marketing team now manages hundreds of real estate teams and brokerage worldwide with paid media across all platforms.

    Aligning with his core belief to help others achieve their goals, he created the wildly successful online coaching course Circle of Excellence. There he teaches real estate professionals step by step on how to generate their own leads, scale as well as how to start their own real estate focused marketing team from the ground up. James is truly experiencing a full circle moment and considers it a privilege to openly share with others his personal journey with the hopes it will encourage others to create their own.

Don’t listen in the car!

Marki’s podcast are so informative, so chock full of great stuff, you will want to take notes. Every time I have to stop the podcast, pull over and grab my notebook and jot down what was just said. This happens EVERY time I’m in the car. Seriously, this happens with every episode. Now I just sit down at my desk with pen and paper whenever I am listening. That way I don’t miss a thing.
