Hustle Humbly Podcast 288: Are You Distracted or Actually Working?
Are you actually working… or just feeling busy? 😬
There are so many things in real estate that make you feel productive but don’t actually lead to making money. A new logo? A fresh website? A perfectly curated Instagram feed? They might help, but if your bank account is running low, these probably aren’t the things you should be focusing on.

-

-
Why some agents stay “busy” but never get closings
