SHOW NOTES

With all the disruptors that are coming in the real estate sector, are you feeling like you can’t see yourself working in the next few years?

I want you to take a deep breath and share with you that these disruptors are actually fantastic news!

On today’s episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience, I talk with co-founder and CEO of Agentology, David Tal. 

David shares with me how Agentology helps agents by following up and nurturing on leads so they can close their deals when they’re warm and ready!

He also talks about the lessons learned of having to hire the best people for his team on the right time. Plus he spills his best text scripts to follow up with leads – without sounding like a bot!

We also discuss the future of agents, brokerages and the real estate sector with Amazon and Realogy’s new partnership.

Are you going to permit these disruptors eradicate you before you demonstrate to your clients why you’re the best option?
