Ignoring Your Database Cost Her 20 Years. Here Is What Changed with Michele Mamo
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What would happen to your business if you disappeared for three weeks? Suneet sits down with Michele Mamo, team leader of the Dwell Well Group at eXp Realty, who just returned from a three week family trip through Europe to find her best month ever waiting for her, plus nearly 40 deals already pending for the month ahead. Eighteen months ago she was seriously thinking about quitting. In this conversation she breaks down exactly what changed: getting obsessed with her database, working Follow Up Boss every single day, joining the Zillow Preferred program, building a leadership team that watches out for every agent, and creating an onboarding school inside Agently that turns brand new agents into producers. Michele also shares her remarkable origin story, from leaving a federal government job at the U.S. Treasury in 2002 to restarting her business from scratch in Cincinnati with $200 short sale consultations, along with her honest take on referral fees, online leads, and what it really takes to win listings. If you are a team leader or broker owner who wants a business that keeps producing while you actually live your life, this episode is proof that it can be done, and that it is never too late to start over.
