Next Level Agents: The Kevin & Fred Show - Interviews with the best and brightest minds in the real estate industry How to Close More Real Estate While Working Less (Leverage, Systems, and the Social Media Strategy That Got 3M Views)
What if your best income year came from working fewer hours, not more? Nolan Rucker just closed out 26.5 million in sales—his most profitable year ever—and he did it while taking more vacations, building serious leverage, and never showing half his listings in person. While the industry's hitting back-to-back 30-year lows in transaction volume, Nolan's proving that the old playbook is completely broken.
In this episode, we break down the systems, mindset shifts, and tactical strategies that allowed Nolan to increase his dollar-per-hour while actually working less. From turning away nightmare clients to building a social media presence that generated 3 million views in 10 weeks, this conversation challenges everything you think you know about what it takes to win in real estate right now.
Key Topics Covered:
-
Why calculating your dollar-per-hour (not just your GCI) changes everything about how you approach your business
-
The counterintuitive strategy of turning away clients and how it actually leads to more (and better) business
-
How to build leverage in your business without needing a massive team
