One of the things I've noticed over the years as a real estate agent is that many agents give up after only a short time of trying the business. That breaks my heart. I don't like seeing it. I know that many of those agents didn't have to give up and didn't have to step out of the business. The problem was that they got discouraged and no one was there to help them. On this episode of the Onion Juice podcast I am here to give you some encouragement, I'm here to give you a shot of confidence that you can do it.

Welcome back to the Onion Juice podcast. my name is Neil Mathweg and I'm the host of the show and your fellow entrepreneur in the real estate business. On this episode I'm answering a question that someone posed to me about what I would do if I was starting all over in a brand new city. Man, that is a great question and one I could write an entire book about. But I'm going to spare you the book and gave you most of what I think in a nutshell, on this episode.
Social media has come along, and Realtors are not so good at using it. Yeah, you can blast more people with your pushy sales messages, but are you getting customers from it? Probably not. Why? Because you’re not storselling. You’re pushing your stuff on people who don’t want to hear it. Social media is NOT the place to blast people with market reports or inventory. It’s where people go to relax or be entertained. So how do you use social media in a way that actually engages with people on those levels? By storyselling. Find out how on this episode of Onion Juice.

YOUR story. Yep, your story is vital to the success of your business, and how you tell it is the most important part. I call it “story selling,” and it's how you attract a following and engage them with you for the long haul. It's the way you set yourself apart in their eyes and create a raving fan base rather than one time customers. I'm going to talk about all that on this episode of Onion Juice.

Welcome to this episode of Onion Juice, the podcast for REALTORS about Real Estate and making your business thrive. I’m Neil Mathweg and I’m glad you’ve joined me here on the show notes page. Today I’m beginning a two-part series focusing on a relatively new social media platform, Snapchat. Previously I’ve said that Snapchat was not such a big deal, but I was wrong. On this episode I’m going to walk you through a couple of experiences I’ve had on Snapchat that have convinced me that this is a powerful, powerful platform that REALTORS can use to build connections, gain referrals, and a whole lot more… so, I hope you listen.

Hey, welcome back to Onion Juice. I’m Neil Mathweg, your host, REALTOR, and fellow entrepreneur. I’m here to help you increase your business and maximize your life as a REALTOR. Today I’ve got something very special to share with you, something that has changed the way I think about the services I offer my clients and the way I approach Real Estate sales overall. It takes the form of 15 questions I have learned that I ask my potential clients when we sit down during a listing appointment. I’m convinced this is THE way to do a listing appointment for maximum effectiveness, and my hope is that what’s on this episode of the podcast will empower you to be more effective and get more listings for yourself as well.

Onion Juice is back. I’m your host, Neil Mathweg, realtor, business builder, and hopefully, your friend and colleague in the Real Estate world. Today’s episode is really a “true confessions” type show. I’m going to tell you the story of how I learned to be more curious and why I thought it was important. To be totally honest, I was too proud, too convinced that I had all the answers in most conversations that I had with people. But when I learned that curiosity could open new doors, I was intrigued, and that leads to the story behind this podcast. So, grab a cup of your favorite beverage and hear my story. I think it will help you increase your leads, listings, and your Real Estate business as as whole.

I’m Neil, and I’m humbled to have you along on this movement to change the status quo of the Real Estate industry. So, what’s this all about, playing games that nobody else is playing? It really means finding an opportunity that you can capitalize on that your competitors have not caught onto - yet. Do you see what I’m saying? They WILL find it in time. But if you can find it first and establish yourself there, you’ve got the high ground. On this episode I’m going to talk about how you can do that by building a “media company” that also sells Real Estate, and other ways as well.

Last week I spoke about a social media plan… and the fact that you as a Realtor have GOT to create one. But when I said that, I said that it requires that you create a Media Plan as well. What’s a media plan? It’s a strategy for producing media, of some kind, that you can use to position yourself as THE go-to expert in your niche (real estate). This can be a very powerful thing for you, especially in your local area. On this episode I’m going to show you how I’m doing that and share some plans for a future show I’m going to create to leverage media to my advantage in a powerful way.

One of the biggest reasons I started the onion juice podcast was to shake up the real estate industry. I believe that things need to change. I believe that we are operating according to many antiquated systems and beliefs. When we can revolutionize things according to the advances in technology and society, we will not only make more money, but we will also serve our customers better. This episode of the Onion Juice is all about that. You are going to meet my guest Zach Schabot, a Realtor who has some amazingly outside the box ideas that you're going to love.

Hey, I’m so glad you’re back to check out another episode of the Onion Juice podcast. This one’s a bit outside the box, and if you know me at all, you know I like it that way. Today I’m talking with two guys who have truly pushed the envelope of what Real Estate agents are doing online by posting real, raw, honest conversations that stimulate interaction. Who are they? It’s Wes and Eric, the guys behind The Broke Agent, a Real Estate company that is on the leading edge of using social media to move their business forward. If you’re struggling to know how to use social media effectively for your Real Estate business, you’ve got to hear how these guys approach it.

We’ve all felt the uncomfortable pressure of an unwanted marketing pitch, right? The pushy used car salesman, the vacuum cleaner guy at your front door, the people in the mall who want you to take their survey, the telemarketer who didn’t seem to hear you say, “no” the first time. It’s awkward - and you don’t want to be the one putting on that kind of pressure. But sadly many of us think of marketing and sales in that vein, and I’m here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be that way at all. In fact, marketing can truly be fun. Stick around for this episode of the Onion Juice real estate podcast and learn how marketing can be different.

Facebook has been around for a long long time now, so you know how to use it. Or do you? On this episode I want to talk about something that has been on my mind a lot lately, and it's the way real estate agents do absolutely stupid things on Facebook, all in attempts to promote their business.

It’s episode 9 of the Onion Juice Podcast… almost to double digits (every little milestone counts, right?). On this episode I’m going to be covering an issue that is very important for all of us Real Estate Agents - convincing people VS compelling them. You may not have given it much thought but you need to know the difference - and more importantly, you need to apply the difference in every situation where you’re working with people. It is the difference between good client relationships and strained client relationships. Learn more on this episode.

The word “vulnerability” is kind of a double-edged sword. On one hand it sounds like a very dangerous place to be, on the other there's something very winsome and appealing about it. I've come to believe is that being vulnerable, letting your stuff hang out, letting others know you're not a perfect human being, is part of what causes connection between people. When that connection happens, trust is built. When trust is built, the sky's the limit. On this episode I'm going to talk to you about why you should be more vulnerable in the way you run and Market your real estate business.

It’s a tough job becoming a new Real Estate agent from scratch (which all of us do at some time or the other). It’s easy to get overwhelmed by the details of the business without even addressing the ways you need to get new clients. On this episode my hope is to cut through all the junk and get to the practical things you can and should do if you are a brand new real estate agent to get your business rolling during that first hard, but rewarding year.

Onion Juice is the new thing to drink in the Real Estate business. It’s different, it’s fresh (really, it is) simply because it’s a drink that gets attention from the people you really need to notice you. Of course, I’m not talking about literal onion juice, I’m talking about my approach to making your real estate business more noticeable and more effective. On this episode I’m going to pull back the curtain on my own direct response letters that I sent to people who had expired listings on the MLS. It was very effective and it’s an approach that I think will make a great difference for you if you apply it. Listen to this episode to find out how.

ABC: “Always Be Closing.” If you had a nickel for every time you’ve heard that phrase as a Real Estate agent you’d be rich by now. But I’m here to tell you that it’s a lie. Driving that hard, especially in our current climate (some have called it a “connection economy”), will only drive people away from you - in droves. On this episode of Onion Juice I’m going to tell you about a concept I learned back in the recession that has forever changed the way I run my business. It’s 3 “E”s - Educate, Empower, and Engage, on this episode.

What you’ll hear on this episode is a HUGE part of what’s behind my mission with Onion Juice. I am convinced that in the day and age in which we live, every business person needs to think differently about the way they approach their prospective clients. You can’t go after them as much as you used to - instead, you’ve got to learn how to put out informative, entertaining, helpful media that does two things: #1 - it positions you as an expert and “everyday” guy or gal, and #2 - it engages people with you in a real relationship that engenders trust. Hear how I go about this and get your own ideas going by listening to this episode.

You want and you need more clients in your real estate business. There’s no question about that. But you can get them much more effectively without the brochures, mailers, and business cards flooding your community. How? By getting engaged in your community in a way that makes you a local hero. It sounds pretty intimidating at first but it’s not. It’s a very natural, caring, genuine way to put yourself in the the limelight that everyone is already looking at, and the fringe benefit is that your place as a realtor in the community is publicized without even talking about it.
