We may all be over cold calling, but we can't pretend it isn't an art form and occasionally a necessary skill. Today we are going over what it takes to close luxury listings with just some good, old fashioned cold calling.ResourceCheck Out His WebsiteReal Estate Marketing DudeThe Listing Advocate (Earn more listings!)REMD on YouTubeREMD on InstagramTranscript:So how do you track new business, you constantly don't have to chase it. Hi, I'm Mike Cuevas to real estate marketing. And this podcast is all about building a strong personal brand people have come to know, like trust and most importantly, refer. But remember, it is not their job to remember what you do for a living. It's your job to remind them. Let's get started.What's up ladies and gentlemen, welcome another episode of the real estate marketing, dude, podcast, folks, we're gonna be chatting about today's luxury listing. That's one of the top questions we see in all the Facebook groups. A lot of the questions we get written in the show, and they're always like, hey, how do I get luxury listings? And usually, my response is, Well, you got to hang out with the people who focus on those homes. Because if you don't, that's how you build a relationship with them. Right? That's actually how Josh Altman got a start. If you ever read his book, Josh Altman used to hang out in the Starbucks. I think I have his book right here in my library somewhere. But he used to hang out in the Starbucks. That's how he got his first listing he heard overheard eavesdropping in the line, some athlete was selling his house, he threw his coffee way, gets behind them and starts a conversation. And that was how he got his first listing. But he put himself in that environment. So what we're going to do today is our guest is going to prove me wrong and every single way, because he's really good at something I'm not. And most Realtors aren't, to be honest with you either. But that's why it's probably working for him and what he's an expert in is actually going about and getting luxury listings. But starting that prospecting journey on the phone. We're talking about possible cold calling, and I don't know yet we're gonna get into an interview him, but this is phone prospecting, and I can't do it. I hate sales. I can't do it. I just can't do it. I can't pick up the phone and call someone and try to sell my shit. I like when they come to me. But I do know phone prospecting works very well and our other company owner advocate, we are creating all of our seller leads through cold calling, and we're cold calling certain aspects. So it does work. Yes, but this dude's gonna give us the magic. So without further ado, let's go ahead and introduce our guest George dilemmas. Did I say that correctly? Yes, you did. Right. Damn, I know that. I was taking notes when you said it a couple of times. That's why. But let's just say hello to your guests. Tell us a little bit about yourself who you are, where you're at. And I got all kinds of questions for you.Absolutely. Again, my name is Georgia lamas. I'm located here in the Panhandle in Florida. You're probably asking what the heck is that? Well, that's in a historic part of this is called 30. A. That's where all our vacationers come down and investors it's also Destin, Florida is in that area. Lifetime, vacationers come down here as well. And yes, big part of my business sold over 100 million. And I'd say 99% of that's come through phone prospecting, whether it's expired listings, just sold pendings. If I see a significant sale, maybe get to know the neighborhood a little bit call in. And basically, I'd love to kind of run through that. See if I can give some good knowledge out to everybody.That's crazy. How long have you been in the business first?I've been in the business I got my license in 2013. Probably didn't start till end of 14 or 15. I think more than 14 I was still full time in another job.And are you from your local geographic area? Or did you transplant in
