If you’ve ever wanted to sit at the bar with someone who’s not selling you a dream—but telling you the truth—you’re in the right place.
In this episode, we're talking with Colton Whitney, a real estate team leader and database conversion expert who reveals why most agents are sitting on goldmines of unconverted leads—and exactly how to change that.
Despite being an admitted introvert who ”hates real estate,” Colton built a high-performing team through systematic processes that turn cold databases into closed deals.
What You'll Learn Today:
✅ Why a 0.2% increase in conversion rate creates a 25% increase in income—and how to achieve it
✅ The exact follow-up cadence that converts internet leads (hint: it's 3x per week for the first 30 days, not once)
✅ How to use off-market inventory as a powerful tool to get buyer brokerage agreements signed
✅ The showings strategy that ensures every appointment ends with another meeting booked—never be ”Vanna White” again
