You Don’t Need Luxury Listings to Build a Thriving Real Estate Business
You don’t need a big budget or a picture-perfect brand to grow your business.
You just need a simple plan that helps you stay visible, build trust, and attract leads — right where you are.
When I first started in real estate, I had zero listings and no clue what to post. But I figured out how to use social media in a way that felt real, not forced. Fast forward to today—most of my business comes from social alone.
I know what it’s like to juggle clients, closings, and real life, and still wonder what to post when there’s “nothing” going on. That’s why I created The Marketing Guide: to help small-town agents stop overthinking and start showing up confidently online.
Because you don’t need a luxury listing to attract leads, just consistency, authenticity, and a plan that fits your life.

Your content and ideas are outstanding. It’s really helped me get out of my shell and finally start showing up online. The structure was exactly what I needed—and those gentle nudges to post? Super helpful. I’ve definitely seen an increase in views, and even had people mention they saw my posts! I’ve already recommended you and plan to keep working with you. The material works. Now it’s on me to use it more consistently!

Social media is something I’ve always struggled to organize and stay consistent with, but this gave me the structure and schedule I was missing. The weekly tasks were simple and never overwhelming—yet they still looked professional and intentional. I’d recommend this program to any new agent who wants to build good social media habits early—before they get too busy or fall into the habit of not posting at all. And I’d absolutely recommend it to seasoned agents who want to be more active on social media but don’t know where to start or struggle to stay consistent. The tools, the strategy make it incredibly helpful for agents at any stage of their business.

This program helped me organize my thoughts and come up with great content ideas! Our video views went up, and we’ve seen amazing engagement on our posts. It’s been such a fantastic addition to our marketing plan! I’m not great at using social media, but this program made it simple and helped me see it as an asset to my business instead of something overwhelming. Now I actually know what to do each week, and it works!

✅ Where you serve
✅ How to contact you
This is crucial for realtors—your profile needs to show up in search results so clients can find you easily!
In 10 minutes or less, this step-by-step guide will help you optimize your Instagram and Facebook profiles, making it clear who you are, what you do, and why potential clients should connect with you.
Our Philosophy
Reputation over Dollars
As a real estate agent, you don’t have a business, you have a reputation. Always treat clients and other agents as you want to be treated. Your name will proceed you and it will outlast you; make it a good one.
Quality over Quantity
Authentic engagement from your local community is more important than having a large number of uninterested followers. Focus on original and interesting content that moves people to engage with you. (please say no to spring cleaning tips and giant keys at closing…)
Balance in Life
What matters most to you in this life? We spend so much time caring for others that we often neglect ourselves and those closest to us. Take time to learn how to be well physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Everyone will benefit from the effort.
