The Semi-Retired Agent Brandon DeVere

“𝗜’𝗺 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗧𝗼 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗢𝗳 𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀”

Unfortunately the majority of us have been conditioned to be either jealous of others or ashamed of ourselves when we see others succeed.

Somewhere along the way it has been ingrained in our minds that there is only a certain amount of success out there.

And if anyone but us succeeds it is taking away from the limited amount available.

I myself can attest to this.

I have seen people succeed and immediately question my own abilities.

That was before I decided to be grateful for those who succeed ahead of me, and why you should too.

By saying…

“𝗜’𝗺 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗧𝗼 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗢𝗳 𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀”

Your mindset will shift, giving yourself permission to root for the success of others.

Instead of being jealous or ashamed that they have accomplished something that you haven’t yet.

Cheer for them to succeed.

When they do, figure out how they did it.

They will create the blueprint for you while collapsing the time it takes for you to have success.

The important part of this will be the “abundance” mindset, as it is a positive one rather than the negative mindset of “scarcity”

By viewing it in a positive light you will have the ability to learn from them.

Coming with a negative mindset will put blinders on. Blocking you from learning anything.

Besides the energy it takes to be jealous is energy taken away from the energy to grateful.

We can ALL be successful, so why not root for growth.

I can’t wait to learn from your successes.

Because I am grateful for the opportunity to learn from them.

Cheers to your success,

Brandon “I’m Rooting For You” DeVere

Have you ever felt like you are not enough?

Like, the more you do and accomplish the further away from your goals you get?

I have definitely felt this way, on more than one occasion.

Wouldn’t it be great to always feel like we are moving closer to our goals?

I was listening to Morgan Housel on a podcast today and he had an interesting thought that may explain it.

What game are you playing?

Maybe your set of rules for success aren’t the same as the rules your peers have set for their success.

Yet many of us gauge our success on what others deem successful.

For instance, when I talk about The Semi-Retired Real Estate Agent, that is MY version of success.

It is not about me not doing anything and fishing all day.

It is about me not having to ask someone for permission to spend time with my family.

I understand that not everyone views that as success.

But I do… that is MY game which has its own set of rules.

What is YOUR Game?

What are YOUR rules?

I’d love to hear what your definition of success is.

I tried to create for everyone

The beautiful thing about creating content is that you can weed out the people that will never align with you or your message. Without ever having to spend the energy to convince them that they should do business with you.

If you have to convince them now, you will have to convince them in the future.

I started building an alliance of agents about 3-1/2 years ago and what I thought back then was that I wanted anybody and everybody to join me.

But the reality was much different.

I’ve actually met far more agents that don’t align with what I want to accomplish than agents that do.

Not saying that they are bad people or agents, we are simply playing two different games.

It doesn’t matter to me if you sell 5, 10, or 100 homes a year. If we aren’t rowing in the same direction, our maximum growth will be compromised.

And by creating content such as this email, the ones that will be a fit will eventually raise their hand and say...

“I’m in, let’s do this”.

And the ones that won’t be a fit will unsubscribe and move on.

I know it may sound counterintuitive when trying to build a large alliance to just let people walk.

But for the long game it. Is absolutely necessary.

And I invite those who are not open thinkers to unsubscribe. If your gates are closed my message won’t land for you anyway.

I am creating for those WILL, not for those who WON’T

If you are one of the ones who WILL, I invite you to connect, collaborate, and contribute in our private group. Here.

Former Independent Broker Liam Swords shares with me the untold aspects of being an Independent Broker.

Things that made him think twice about having his own brokerage and how they ultimately drove him to partner with the fastest growing brokerage in history, in order to give his agents the opportunity that they deserved.

Learn why he has chosen to "plant his flag" with this company in order to give him and his agents the life they deserve.

His desire was to leave a legacy and this was the best way to do it.

The Inviter

Although I think you are ready to take this step to add to your existing business, you may be saying to yourself, “I don’t think I need this, I just want to sell more homes.” To that I say, “Please, keep selling homes.” After all, we are real estate agents and that is what we do. We sell homes, and quite frankly, without home sales this model doesn’t work. In fact, without selling homes no real estate model works.

You might also say, “But Brandon, I don’t know how to build a team, I’m not like you, I’m not sure where to start.” Also a valid point and I know exactly how you feel. I felt that exact same way when I first started building my organization, which is now over 200 agents strong. I didn’t think I’d be able to do it either. It just seemed so overwhelming. But what I have found was that it was just like recommending a product to someone or inviting them to something. Have you ever recommended a movie or restaurant to someone? Or even invited them to a party? Your answer is likely yes, and you probably do this more than you even realize. Another question is, have you ever been compensated financially for your recommendations or invitations? That answer is likely no.

What if I told you that the model I’m speaking of does exactly that—financially compensates you just for recommending it to and inviting others. This allows you to become an inviter, an inviter who has the opportunity to be responsible for the positive changes in the lives of countless others. An inviter who, when people say or hear your name, their face lights up and they feel incredible gratitude that you have come into their lives. I know this to be true because I am fortunate enough to have these types of interactions with multiple people who thank me for inviting them to join me, and by doing so, changing their lives. I’m not saying this to brag. I’m saying this because it is true and it is something that is solidifying the legacy I plan to leave behind.

You too can start creating a legacy today, and it starts with just one invitation. It will not only change your life, but the lives of so many others. All because you were brave enough to go first. All because you chose to be an INVITER.

Now is the time to ask…what are you going to do?

Before reading this book you may have had the excuse that you didn’t know what residual income was, or that you didn’t know that you could make it just by continuing to sell real estate. But now, you don’t have that excuse.

You are now aware of residual income and how you can change your life and the lives of others with it. The only decision left is this: will you take this new knowledge and act on it or will you let it pass by?

I get it, this isn’t for everyone, and it may not be for you. I respect that. But I’m sure you know someone who this would be perfect for. So if this isn’t for you, please share this book with someone you think could benefit from it. Trust me, they will thank you for it.

There is a new standard in the way real estate transactions and compensation plans are structured, and we’ve already seen changes happen. Don’t get squeezed out of the industry because you are afraid to adapt.

We are on the ground floor of something special, and I want to personally invite you to join me on this journey. Are you ready to change YOUR life? More importantly, are you ready to change the lives of others?

I think you’re ready.
