Phillip shares incredible wisdom from his years of building one of the most respected real estate companies, and we dive deep into what it truly means to build a business God’s way.

This conversation isn’t just about business success—it’s about faith, calling, and obedience to Jesus. Phillip opens up about how his faith in Christ has guided his decisions, sustained him through challenges, and shaped the culture of excellence and integrity that Benchmark Realty is known for.

If you’re an entrepreneur, leader, or real estate agent who wants to grow while keeping Jesus at the center of your business, this discussion will inspire and equip you.

🙏 Key Takeaways:
• Wisdom from decades of leadership and business building
• Insights from Phillip’s newly released book

Here are the Top 5 Reasons Real Estate Agents Don’t Put Out Social Media Content — stated clearly and based on what agents commonly express:

1. Fear of Judgment or Not Feeling “Good Enough” On Camera

Agents worry about:

• How they look or sound
• Whether they’ll say the “wrong” thing
• What other agents will think
  This is the #1 psychological block. The internal voice says:
  “Who am I to be the one teaching, sharing, or giving advice?”

Reality: The market rewards authenticity, not perfection.

2. They Don’t Know What to Post

Agents often think content must be:

• Cinematic
• Professionally edited
• Perfectly scripted

So instead of simple, consistent content (market updates, community highlights, buyer/seller tips), they overthink — and post nothing.

3. They’re Afraid of Being Salesy

Many agents don’t want to come across as pushy or “that realtor who’s always promoting.”
So instead of sharing value-driven content, they avoid content altogether.

Key Shift:
You’re not selling.
You’re documenting and educating.

4. Perfectionism / Overproduction

They think:

• “I’ll start once I get the right camera.”
• “I need a better script first.”
• “I’ll wait until my branding is finished.”
• “I’ll post after I redo my website.”

They wait for perfect conditions that never come. Consistency beats quality every time.

5. Lack of a Simple, Repeatable System

If every post takes:

• Too long to think of
• Too long to write
• Too long to record/edit

They give up.

Agents who win have:

• A content plan
• Templates
• Reusable frameworks
• A weekly workflow

Not motivation — a system.

Bottom Line

Agents aren’t lacking skill or content ideas.
They’re battling:

Once they switch to simple, consistent, authentic posting, everything changes:

• More reach
• More trust
• More inbound business
• More referrals
• More conversations

God Bless!

n this video, I share my personal story of how Jesus rescued me from the dominion of darkness and brought me into His marvelous light. For years, I struggled with drug abuse, brokenness, and searching for meaning in all the wrong places. But God never gave up on me.

Through His grace and love, I encountered Jesus Christ as my personal Savior—and everything changed. This is a testimony of transformation, healing, and freedom that only comes through Him.

If you’ve ever felt trapped, hopeless, or far from God, I want you to know there is hope. The same Jesus who set me free can do the same for you.

📖 “For He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son He loves.” — Colossians 1:13

🙏 I pray my story encourages you to trust in Christ and to know that you are never too far gone for His saving grace.

➡️ If this testimony speaks to you, please like, share, and subscribe. And if you need prayer or want to talk more about a relationship with Jesus, drop a comment below—I’d love to connect with you.
