Episode 111 – Stuart Sutton

Listen On The Podcast

Welcome back to our 111th episode of the Launch Your Farm Show where I interview Stuart Sutton with eXp Realty in Austin Texas.

Get ready for an engaging podcast interview with Stuart, a real estate agent who broke free from the traditional mold. Instead of following the crowd, Stuart focused on expireds, FSBOs, cold calling, and door knocking, building a thriving business. However, it was a heartfelt moment with his son that made him realize the importance of work-life balance. Since then, he has created a business that allows him to enjoy quality time with his family, never working weekends or evenings.

Stuart’s expertise lies in “niche marketing,” where he has honed his skills in 1+ acre homes. By developing unique systems and tools, he has separated himself from the competition and created a business base that actively seeks him out. In this interview, Stuart shares his inspiring journey, filled with captivating stories and valuable insights. Tune in for a fun and informative episode that will leave you motivated and entertained!


In this episode, Stuart and I talk about:

• Why niche’s are so important in this business and how they help you truly become an expert.

• Stuart shares how he built a business that allows him to never work evenings and weekends, and how you can do the same in your business!

• What Stuart has learned from his direct response marketing efforts that have landed him client after client.

• A SUPER easy strategy that agents can do right now in their marketing that can drastically increase conversions and massively increase your profits.

• How Stuart achieved major market share in his “farm” in a very short time, beating out top agents who controlled the area. • Plus a ton of other ideas that you can use to grow geographic farm!


Last Piece Of Advice:

“Remember the science – when you are considered an expert by the consumer, they really treat you as an expert. So understand the impact of the expert perspective from a consumer’s point of view. “

About Our Guest

Beatty Carmichael - Launch Your Farm - Beyond Self-Promotion: Effective Marketing that Generates Real Leads

Beatty Carmichael from AgentDominator.com

In 2012 Beatty Carmichael focused his company’s efforts exclusively on the real estate industry, and the beginning of Agent Dominator was birthed.  Starting with geographic farming using postcard marketing, the objective was to help agents get more listings.  In that pursuit, he mailed over 2 million postcards, conducted 21 split marketing tests, plus tested an additional 37 message variations, to determine what message, fonts, headlines and layouts actually worked best to get the most listings. By applying the results from these tests, many of his Realtor clients have earned around $100K or more in their first 12 months with postcard marketing alone.

Since the early days of geographic farming, Agent Dominator has expanded into other areas, developing its own cutting edge technologies that further increase more listings for its clients.  Agent Dominator has also expanded from being focused solely on geographic farming to now helping agents increase sales and referrals from past clients and sphere of influence, to helping commercial brokers acquire new properties to sell … and able to offer a money back guarantee on the results it produces.

Beatty and his company have worked with some of the top Realtors in the country — individuals earning over $1 million a year GCI from personal production, to leaders of teams who do 100-300 transactions a year, and other teams that range from 800 to over 2,100 transactions a year.  In addition to being the chief marketing expert, Beatty also publishes a blog and podcast named GetSellersCallingYou.com that is committed to helping agents get more listings by teaching them simple, best practices in marketing to do it.

Episode 98 – Kenneth Toppin

Listen On The Podcast

Welcome back to our 98th episode of the Launch Your Farm Show where I interview Kenneth Toppin, a top 1% agent with Re/Max in Durham Region.

Today Kenneth shares how he made the commitment to jump into real estate full time after working a full time job for a number of years first. He kind of fell into geographic farming because he didn’t have a strong center of influence. He thought everyone was doing geographic farming and later realized that not many agents are doing it, and doing it well.

He’s since built up a team of 6 buyers agents, 2 admins and himself and has sold nearly 400 homes in his farm over the past few years. And it all started from one listing he “worked” in his farm.  This has led him to build out a door knocking and farming app for real estate agents that he personally uses in his business as well.

In this episode Kenneth and I talk about:

  • Why you should focus on getting 3 or more sales in an area as soon as possible can help you to position yourself as the up and coming agent in the community.
  • Kenneth shares how he built his farm simply because he leveraged a listing on one street and then turned it into 4 more listings on the same street after working the community.
  • What he wishes he would have done in the first few years that would have had an even bigger    impact on his business and how you can learn from his mistakes.
  • A SUPER easy way to track your contacts and KPI’s while door knocking using his Harvast app.
  • How to understand simple metrics and how you can change the trajectory of your business by making small changes in your plan.
  • Plus a ton of other ideas that you can use to grow geographic farm!

3 Myths You Probably Believed About Farming http://launchyourfarm.com/myths-about-farming/ Fri, 26 Aug 2022 09:10:00 +0000 http://launchyourfarm.com/?p=2431 There are a lot of myths that stop a lot of agents from succeeding in farming. Today we bust 3 common myths that could be stopping you!

The post 3 Myths You Probably Believed About Farming appeared first on Launch Your Farm.

Have you heard these farming myths?

If you’ve been in the business for any length of time, you’ve probably heard different things about farming. Some may be true. And probably just as many myths about farming. (Whether you know it or not!)

The thing with this business is we get a lot of information passed on to us from other agents who mean well, but don’t always have the right answers or experience. Many people have “tried” farming, but in most cases they THOUGHT they were farming, but really didn’t know what they were doing. These agents then tell other agents what they think works or doesn’t work, but its usually not based on accurate information. 

myths about farming

This creates more misunderstandings or as I call them “myth-understandings” and it furthers misinformation about the business. There are other factors that cause these, and I cover them in my popular “Top 10 Farming Myths” class I teach, but for the sake of today, I want to cover a few common myths that might be holding you back from farming.

I can’t compete against the competition

I hear it ALL the time… I can’t farm in such and such an area because there is another agent there. The truth is 95% of areas are not farmed, or at least not farmed correctly. Many times agents think there is a dominant agent there simply because they are doing a few deals, but hte truth is most don’t have nearly the market share agents think.

And even if there is an agent who is doing business there, it doesn’t mean you can’t compete. You just need to learn to do things differently, and stay committed to the long haul.

If you aren’t sure about picking the right farm, I strongly suggest you check out our 30 Day Launch program that is designed to help you pick the perfect farm. www.TheFarmLaunch.com 

It’s all about mailing out postcards

This is probably the most common myth I hear. People have this crazy idea that farming is about sending out a bunch of post cards. While that can be a strategy you use in farming, it is not the basis for farming. It was very common in the past, but the reality is that farming is WAY MORE than sending post cards.

If you’ve been following me for any length of time, you’ve heard me talk about C.P.R. (Community, Positioning & Relationships) and you know that the key to any great farm is focusing on the C.P.R.! 

Can you get success from postcard marketing in your farm? Yes!

Do you NEED postcards to have success? NO!

It costs too much to farm

Bad news. It sure can cost a lot of money to farm. 

Great news. It doesn’t have to!

It doesn’t always cost money to farm, but it will cost something. Time, energy, resources and money. You need to decide which of these things you are going to spend if you want to succeed.

While you can spend a lot of money, you don’t have to. If you are getting started in your farm and don’t have a large budget, there are countless strategies that don’t cost you a penny, but you will need to budget your time and energy to ensure they are a hit.

Conclusion – Busting Myths About Farming

There are a ton of other misconceptions about farming, but these are 3 myths you may have heard that could be stopping you from succeeding. If that’s you, put these myths to bed and get working on your farm. Your wallet and your community will thank you!

Happy Farming!
