What is up, guys? Welcome back to another episode of One on One with Austin One. I'm your host, Katie Temple. And for the second time, we've got Aaron Left back to join us. Woohoo! Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Am I the first one to do set two of them?
SPEAKER_00You are. Yes. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00I love it.
SPEAKER_01I love it.
SPEAKER_00So we brought Aaron in because we have a super exciting uh what do we call it? Contest? Competition?
SPEAKER_01Uh the mega summer challenge is what it's actually called.
SPEAKER_00The mega summer challenge, guys. This is an opportunity for you guys to win money while doing the stuff you were going to be doing, anyways, just with a bit of a roadmap. So I brought Aaron in to help explain all the different sections. So tell us a little bit about what's going on.
SPEAKER_01So the mega summer challenge is meant to be like wind in your sales as you go through uh the next nine weeks of summer. And so we have broken it down in three week segments. So the first segment is all about open houses, the second one is gonna be about social media, and the third one is gonna be all about listings. And so if you were with us this past week, we did we had a happy hour, we did a team meeting about it, we had a kickoff call. So every Monday at 9 a.m., we are gonna be doing a check-in. And basically, here's how it works: you guys have the opportunity to win cold hard cash for doing the activities that you should be doing, anyways. And so what you'll do is there's a Google form where you were track your activities, and as you track them, you guys get raffle tickets. And raffle tickets means that literally anybody at any point could win. So uh at the end of each three weeks, there's gonna be a drawing for $500. And then at the very end of the summer on August 3rd, there is gonna be one big mama drawing for $1,000 cash for one of our agents. And so all you gotta do is play all in to win and make sure that you're telling us what exactly you're doing, and you're gonna be able to get in the raffle for doing that. And you can expect some super cool things. We've got some social media classes, there's gonna be some YouTube classes to participate in. We're gonna go on some field trips, uh, which is gonna be a lot of fun, and you guys are gonna have a lot of access to content and knowledge and reasons to have a lot of success this summer.
SPEAKER_00So, this first week, first three weeks is gonna be all about open houses, right?
SPEAKER_01That's right. Yep, yep, yep, yep.
SPEAKER_00If I'm an agent, I don't really know where to get started. What are a few things that I can do to really get ramped up for this?
SPEAKER_01So, first and foremost, you have an email in your inbox that lays out all of the details that you're gonna need to know about the challenge. Our next call is gonna be at 9 a.m. on Monday morning during the productivity coaching call. So feel free to jump on Zoom and join us for that. And then next Tuesday, we're gonna be on the citywide meeting talking all things open houses and moving Yale's businesses forward. And then yours truly next Thursday is going to be doing an open house boot camp. So this is your opportunity to get in the arena and make sure that you know how to handle somebody that walks in the front door and that you have the ability to connect with them and actually convert them. Um, and so I'm really excited about next week's boot camp. So I hope that you guys will join me um up here at the Northwest Market Center at 1 p.m. And then the week after that, we are gonna be touring a luxury property together uh on that next Thursday. So everybody stay tuned. We're gonna be bringing you guys the info as it happens and launching this a little bit at a time so that you guys know what the next right thing to participate in is.
SPEAKER_00So then we've got social media coming out. And what if again, new agent, what am I doing to get started with my social media?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, the most important thing is to show up to those 9 a.m. phone calls so that you can get the game plan for the next week so that you know exactly what you need to be participating in. If you guys go to the Google form, you can also see the activities that'll give you a raffle ticket. So it's gonna be stuff like hosting an open house, taking a client. Uh, this next three weeks is gonna be all about that. So uh even if it's just you're coming in to hang out with us in one of our trainings, like we want to see you guys and we want to get you guys participating. As far as social media goes, Michelle Bippus will be leading that and she'll probably need to do another one of these two to give you guys all of the details. Um, and you can expect to have a lot of different reasons uh to show up for the social media section as well. And I know she's planning a super cool field trip out to a builder too. So stay tuned.
SPEAKER_00I would I would really think it'd be a good time to uh get your Facebook business page set up, your Google business page set up. That's right. And maybe maybe take a Canva class between now and then just to be ready to roll on all that.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Yeah. When is the Canva class, KT?
SPEAKER_00The Canva class, uh the checks in the mail. Uh and we are gonna be doing some Canva classes. I know I think we've got our regional tech trainer Janelle uh that will be coming to do an awesome class for us all about Canva. Uh and remember, guys, you can if you want to get good at Canva and we don't have anything coming up, remember you can schedule time with me anytime in case that is something you're not proficient in and want to learn about it. The cool thing is that with your membership with Keller Williams, is that you are able to have a free pro account with Canva. All you have to do is log into command and then go to canva.kw.com and you're in there with pro access to Canva immediately.
SPEAKER_01There's some super cool stuff in there. Um, so check it out if you haven't. And then really probably the best place to start on the social media front is June 10th. We're gonna have Rachel Lee Adams uh on Zoom so you can log in from wherever you're at, and she's gonna be giving us her playbook to how she has made a ton of money and taken a ton of clients um from social media and the opportunity that that brings too. So you can come learn from a uh what I would consider probably a super professional uh on that front.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, and so this comes out Monday. So that's in a couple, like what is Monday? This is gonna be.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. So if you're listening to this now, get signed up for that class, guys. She's really incredible. She makes it so easy to start implementing things that she is gonna show you. They're not gonna teach you how to code or anything like that. She's gonna give you super easy ways for you to start plugging and playing with your social media. Um, and then lastly, we've got Greg Clark hosting our listing section of of our of our challenge.
SPEAKER_01That's right. And if you know anything about Greg Clark, he is a listing bad. Do we have the beep on this?
SPEAKER_00Like I I can just yell beep as soon as you say something.
SPEAKER_01He is a bad beep. Yeah, there you go. Um, and he has built a huge business on listings and treating them the right way. And so I'm really excited about all the different things that we're gonna get the opportunity to learn from uh not only Michelle, but also Greg during the listing section. And so stay tuned on what Greg's plan is to make sure that we're bringing you guys the best content possible.
SPEAKER_00Awesome, guys. We hope this really sets you up for a summer where you can really take your business to the next level. Anything else, Aaron, that they should know?
SPEAKER_01Um, I mean, where else can you just like win cash for doing the things?
SPEAKER_00Yeah. This is literally just doing your job, just making extra cash. It's a pretty good deal.
SPEAKER_01That's right. That's right. All you gotta do is do the activities and and you can get in the raffles. So make sure you check it out and go check out your email that was sent out to you earlier this week.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I need to start the tech challenge where I get paid more for doing for doing tech calls. That sounds like a fun challenge. So awesome, guys. We'll be back again next week with another episode. Uh, and this time we'll be spotlighting another agent's business. So make sure you check that out. If you found this episode interesting, feel free free to leave us a review, give us some stars. It really helps us get in front of more agents to change more lives. We'll see you guys again next week. Thank you, Aaron.
