August 21, 2023 00:00 VideoNate’s Monday Morning Message Volume 1,178 Welcome to this week’s Monday Morning Message…this week I wanted to talk about happiness. Many of us do not spend that much time thinking about our own happiness. We go about our day just doing whatever we can to get to the next day. When we do think about happiness it is mostly about how we can make the people around us happier. I would suggest to you that true happiness is contagious. If you are happy with who you are, the things you are doing, an...

I just got back from a golf trip in Colorado where not only did I get to play on one of the best courses in the US, but I also got to spend quality time with a group of men who I admire and respect. They say you are the average of the five people closest to you, which I think is true. When I think back on my life, every milestone was an opportunity to level up...

I read this quote the other day, which has inspired my topic for today: “Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.” - Dalai Lama. Compassion is a big, beautiful word but not always an easy word to live by. When anger, frustration, resentment exist, its hard to have compassion. However, compassion can lead us through dark times and into the light ...

Weighing the Pros and Cons of Working Remotely
June 16, 2023 10:00 VideoMany professionals have chosen to work from home in recent years. For real estate agents, it’s an option that can provide a range of benefits. Some of the tasks that we have to do daily, such as following up on leads and scheduling showings, can easily be done without leaving the house.

In terms of advantages, the flexibility that working from home offers is a huge plus. Y...

May 31, 2023 10:00 VideoReferrals are the lifeblood of a real estate agent’s career, but how do you get them? Asking clients for referrals seems like a great idea, but it can be tricky to execute well.

Offer incentives. There’s a reason “give a little, get a little” is a popular expression. You could offer things like gift cards, a ...

5 Tips for Leaving a Gripping Voicemail
May 18, 2023 10:00 VideoLeaving a voicemail can be awkward at the best of times. However, as agents, voicemails can still be powerful, persuasive tools that draw in new clients. There is an art to leaving a gripping voicemail, though. The key is immediately grabbing the person’s attention with specific, relevant information spoken in a confident but not salesy tone. If you overwhelm them with information, sound too much like a salesperson, or don’t hook them within the first few seconds, your efforts may backfire....

A sense of balance and harmony in your life. We all need a moment of peace. Sometimes its not that easy with the chaos that can be realit...

May 08, 2023 00:00 VideoNate’s Monday Morning Message Volume 1,163 Welcome to this week’s edition of Nate’s Morning Message! I read this quote the other day by Vincent Van Gogh – “What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?” That got me thinking and inspired me for today’s message. If early man had no courage, what would the world look like? Would we have ever discovered fire or electricity? Would we have the airplane or cars? Would we have put a man on the moon? The answer is no. Because all those...

April 18, 2023 10:00 VideoGetting more listings is a necessary skill if you want to make more money in this industry. However, it’s a lot harder to do as inventory continues to be at a record low.

Over the weekend I had the privilege of golfing with family and friends at the Sand Hallow Golf Resort in Utah.

I was listening to an interview on the radio the other day with a very popular rockstar – he shared how hard it was in the beginning of their career as a band, how no one in the business liked their style and only a handful of people showed up for their first concert. He said two things that stuck out to me – first, he said that “obstacle are what you see when you lose sight of the goal.” And...

If you are like me, you might have spent some time this weekend watching football. It’s the playoffs and every game counts. In football playoffs, there is not a five-game series, there are no rematches. There is no opportunity to build up momentum. It comes down to who is the best team that day – its win or go home. That got me thinking about life and how we show up every day. Do we treat tod...

We are back in full swing! I came across this short story the other day, and while I have shared it before I thought it was timely to share again.
