Sometimes in business, no matter what field you're in, sales is treated purely as a numbers game. For example, someone may say there are 3 rules in sales: sell, sell, sell. But as much as that's true, and needing to sell is what keeps the lights on, retention is equally (if not more) important than selling. Don't just find another deal, take care of the people you already have. Sean & Tim use an insurance example to break down their own successes and failures in business. Tune in for the jokes, stay for the advice and tips!

Our goal with Bricks & Risk is that you walk away with 1 or 2 valuable nuggets that can help build your own business. Our audience grows through word of mouth, so if you would please take a moment of your time and give us a review on the platform you’re on, that would be fantastic!

Although Justin Heath has been at the residential real estate game for just shy of a decade, he has a lifetime worth of real-estate-blood coursing through his veins; through both his Mom & Dad.

Dive head first into this "guestie" ep with Vik Vaughn (aka Sean) & Tim!

The Realtor ... what? Mmm hmm, Tim made that term up; haha. But, for those of you in residential real estate, this is a very real thing. Experiencing the "Realtor Joneses" happens when another real estate agent, leader, or coach starts comparing you to another agent with the intention of making your business bigger, faster, or just more efficient. Dive right into this one as Sean & Tim define the Realtor Joneses and tips on how to avoid falling into this very common comparison trap!

Kelly has an unbelievable knack to take something that is fairly complex and provide an easy-to-digest perspective on it. Both Sean & Tim noticed this throughout their conversation with her. As an accomplished entrepreneur and speaker, Kelly's company (Agency Performance Partners) has been inspiring insurance agency owners for more than a decade. In this ep, she gives her own insightful opinion as to why the insurance industry has shifted to a hard market, and how "crispy" some of the loyal, hard-working insurance agency employees have become. Don't sleep on this one, it's awesome!

Today's Bricks & Risk Podcast ep was inspired by a recent article/video we saw about California introducing an "insurance contingency" to it's residential real estate contract, amid insurance concerns in recent years. What was more interesting is that Pennsylvania has already had this option in its contract for years. The video helped Sean & Tim bring up some good insurance and real estate points for their listening/watching community: 1) Make sure you are properly protected in your offer/contract by your Buyer Agent, 2) Make sure you understand the costs and risks associated with insurance when becoming a homeowner. Dig in for pro-tips from your favorite business podcast co-hosts!
