Are you interested in accelerating your growth to reach your goals faster? Excellent! We’re now going to discuss a way to do just that and to get you even more inspired.
A proven way to expand your mind, and to think bigger, is to talk to and be around more people who have achieved a level of success that you admire and may inspire you—people that you view as more successful in business than you, such as a millionaire (or even a billionaire if you really want to be bold!).
The great news is they can be in any business or industry, and what is amazing is how much you can learn from them, and how willing they are to share their secrets with you when you are willing to just ask.
Here’s the process to get started:
1. Call the successful person you would like to talk with and ask them if you could schedule a time to meet to ask them some questions about how they became so successful. You could mention that you admire what they’ve done and you feel that what you would learn from them would help you to grow personally and professionally in your business.
2. Be prepared with your questions when you call to schedule a time to speak with them, because it’s possible that since you actually reached them, they may have 20–30 minutes to speak with you right then and might offer that option. As you already know, successful people often like to get things done, rather than put them off, which provides you with that possibility. Be prepared!
3. If you have difficulty identifying a successful person to speak with, ask your Team Leader, Operating Partner, Regional Director, a fellow associate, or anyone else you know who they know that’s successful that you can contact to speak with. Get their permission when they give you their contact information to be able to mention that they referred them to you.
Here is a list of suggested questions to ask:
What do you do for a living? How did you get started in this business? What have been your biggest challenges getting to where you are today? What process did you use to overcome your challenges along the way to create your success? What one word would you use to describe yourself that you believe has contributed the most to your success? What makes you say that? What is the most important thing in your life? What’s important about that? When did you first realize this? How has this influenced your life decisions? What would you say is your greatest fear? What do you think makes it that way? What has been your greatest accomplishment thus far in life? What makes it significant to you? What did you do? How did that make you feel? What advice would you give to someone like me if your intention is to help them be more successful in their business and in their life? If there was something you feel you would have done differently in your business or life, what would that be? What makes you feel that way? What gives you the most satisfaction in life? What makes it so satisfying? Who are the 3 people in your life who have had the most impact on who you are today? What is it about them that causes you to feel that way? How have they influenced who you are and what you have done in your life? What is the name of the best book you’ve ever read? What makes it the best book? What way did it influence your life? Do you have any last thoughts you would like to share with me that we haven’t discussed?
Thank you for being so generous with your time today. I really appreciate your time and want you to know this has been extremely insightful. I promise I will pay it forward when someone asks me for my input and assistance in the future.

If you’re looking to build a real estate business that is both scalable and sustainable, listings should be at the heart of your strategy.
Listings are one of the most efficient ways to generate income, grow your brand, and serve more clients—without sacrificing your time. While working with buyers has its benefits, a listing-focused business gives you more leverage and opportunity to grow.
Here are four compelling reasons to prioritize working with sellers:
Rookie Real Estate Agent, p. 178
1. Marketing Opportunities Every listing is a marketing opportunity for both the property and your business. When you list a home, your name goes on the yard sign, in the online listings, on direct mail, and across directional signs. Hosting an open house creates even more exposure. Whether it’s door hangers, flyers, or just your contact info on the MLS, each piece of listing activity puts your brand in front of more people.
2. More Business Listings naturally generate more business. With increased visibility comes increased reach—and that means leads. Many of those leads will be buyers who haven’t committed to an agent yet. Plus, 39% of sellers go on to use the same agent for their next home purchase. More listings means more opportunities, more referrals, and a faster-growing database.
3. More Income for Your Output Buyers often require more time-intensive support—showings, appointments, back-and-forth communication. Sellers, on the other hand, allow you to scale. A solo agent might only manage 4–5 active buyers at once, but many successful agents can handle 10, 20, or even more listings simultaneously. That’s leverage—and more income potential for every hour you work.
4. Pricing Power & Market Knowledge Listing agents stay ahead of the market. You’re the first to know about new inventory, shifts in pricing trends, and buyer demand. This front-line experience not only sharpens your expertise—it builds your reputation. Whether you’re helping sellers or advising buyers, clients turn to you as the expert when they want to understand the market.
Focusing on listings helps you build a business that works for you—giving you the freedom, income, and reputation you’re striving for in real estate.
