Facebook ads are
more about giving
something of value
to the consumer and
not so much making
it about yourself.

#ICNY

Every agent needs a
common operating
system. Technology is
taking over the real
estate world, and
everything needs to be
integrated for agents
to work efficiently and
become successful.

We can't count on
the industry to educate
Realtors. If you want
your broker to do
more training, then
get your ass in that
chair with them.
SEAN CARPENTER
DIRECTOR OF TRAINING
CB WEST SHELL/KING THOMPSON
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
Standing out from
the noise used to mean
‘the loudest person
wins.’ Now, agents who
capture someone’s
attention by being ‘in
their space and in their
face’ have better
chances to succeed.
JARED COHEN
MARKETING MANAGER

#ICNY
INSIGHTS
When I create content,
I ask myself three
questions: Is it
informative? Is it
entertaining? Is it a
utility? If the answer to
any of them is no, I
don’t create the content.
SETH DAILEY

You can only improve
what you measure. At
the end of the day, it’s
all about getting

track your work in real-
time.

#ICNY

It’s great to be aware
of all the social
channels that are out
there, but stick with
the ones that work. If
Facebook works, stick
with Facebook. If
Instagram works, stick
with Instagram.

Buyers and sellers
research online, but
when it comes to buying
and selling, they want
human connection.
While production and
experience are
important, the human
connection wins the ink.
CHRISTINA ETHRIDGE

There’s a big
difference between
using Facebook Ads

Boosting posts to
just anyone using the

People will leave your
agency if they feel you
are a ceiling to their
success. If they see you
as an enabler of their
success, though, why
would they ever want
to leave?

This is the connection
revolution, and we
win with two things:
trust and attention.
You don't get attention
by yelling at people,
but rather by getting
people to talk about
you.
DR. SVENJA GUDELL
CHIEF ECONOMIST
ZILLOW
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
We’ll actually see an
uptick of Chinese

the higher end of the

2016.
CORAL GUNDLACH

Even if you’re not
getting direct deals
from your reviews, if
you have a great set of
client reviews online,
you have a great
chance of at least
getting some referral
business.
ASHTON GUSTAFSON

Your human
thumbprint is greater
than your digital
footprint. After all,
we’d rather be told
we’re loved than
tweeted we’re loved.
CHRIS HELLER

KELLER WILLIAMS REALTY
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
When the agents are
sharing in the success
of an agency, they feel
like partners. There’s a
different dynamic

the same goals.

Facebook is so unique
because its ad targeting
is so specific. You can
really find that audience

Facebook and use it to
bolster your advertising

Technology, at its

We live in a push-

I always tell people
not to put down
that they've done
$10 million in sales.
I tell them to say,
‘I’ve helped over
250 families buy
and sell their homes.’
JENNIFER MARCHETTI
CMO
BETTER HOMES &
GARDENS REAL ESTATE
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
Take a really, really
hard look in the mirror
and be honest about
what you’re good at
and what you’re not
good at. That’s the
biggest route to failure:
if you follow what
everyone else is doing.
JIM MARKS

Understand when
people are on mobile
they have different
things they want to

Over 90 percent of
innovation fails, so
you've got to be very
careful about where
you're going. But
don't ridicule it. I
think that's a big deal
going into the future.
LAURA MONROE
DIRECTOR OF MARKETING

You need to be
clear not just about
the consumer
experience on social

the brand is being
affected by your
social content.
NICOLE OGE

Unlike generations
prior, Generation Z is
much more skeptical
to the information
available to them.
These next generations

bit more honest.
SETH PRICE

#ICNY

If you want to build
your brand bank

what ‘trust marketing’
is all about.
RAJ QSAR

THE BOUTIQUE
REAL ESTATE GROUP
#ICNY

I see 2016 as a time for
agents to use available
tech to connect deeper

Use tech to create real-
life relationships and
develop and nurture
your sphere.

It’s 2016. Video is no
longer an option — it’s
mandatory. It’s going
to help your SEO when
you post videos and
show your knowledge
of your market.
NELA RICHARDSON
CHIEF ECONOMIST
REDFIN
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
A lot of people are
touring homes lately,
but fewer and fewer

sellers and their

careful about their
listing price.
RICH ROSA

The content is the
message. What are
you trying to convey
to your audience with
your content? Start
with the target
audience and buyer
persona you’re trying
to attract.
ZACH SCHABOT
FOUNDER
GOCONNECT AND GO REALTY
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
Look for consumers to
hang on to their cash
instead of investing in
housing. If your
business plan and
marketing efforts don't
acknowledge this
temporary behavioral
shift, you’re in trouble.
SETH SEMILOF
PUBLISHER
HAUTE LIVING AND
HAUTE TIME MAGAZINE
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
Create great content
with calls to action
and post those to
social media to grow
your following. Don’t
fall through the trap
of buying followers
on social media.
GLENN SHIMKUS
VP OF PRODUCT
DOCUSIGN
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
In 2016, I expect to see
an integration of the
tools used by
brokerages to manage
the data and docs that
drive the transaction
with those used by
mortgage and title to
close the transaction.
KARA SWISHER
EXECUTIVE EDITOR

#ICNY
INSIGHTS
You don’t have to see
the houses to buy
them anymore. Virtual
reality is really
changing the home
search. What’s
happening in VR is
really transformative.
MARK TEPPER

#ICNY

Realtors shouldn’t
fear technology. They
should embrace it, as
it can open up doors
for them — like
reaching a global
audience — that
otherwise would
remain closed.
JOHN THORNTON
PARTNER LEAD OF REAL ESTATE
GOOGLE
#ICNY

Google has always
prioritized landing
pages on desktop
that offer great user
experiences. We’re
just applying the
same prioritization
to mobile sites now.
AMANDA TODD

Be very intentional
with what you want in
life: for your family, for
your business.
Remember those
important themes so
you don’t end up
wasting time on things
that don’t matter.
FRED TOWNES

Technology is finally
on its way to enabling
the real estate
professional to create
customer experiences
that demonstrate the
unique value of the
agent in the home
buying process.
JOSH TUCKER
MANAGING PRINCIPAL AND BROKER
ANCHOR REAL ESTATE
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
It’s important to figure
out who you need to
network with. Some
agents think going out
to a bar is networking.
Plan out your
networking and figure
out who you need to
go after.
MAURICIO UMANSKY
CEO
THE AGENCY
I think what stops most
real estate agents is
the fear of failure. If
agents can get past
this fear and be
aggressive and be
eloquent, they are
going to succeed a lot
more than they fail.
#ICNY

ALLEN WEISS
FOUNDER AND CEO

Pay attention to the
local market you’re

DAVID WIGGS

Work the process
and make sure you
have the discipline

right people to join
your firms.
MARILYN WILSON

#ICNY
INSIGHTS
You can’t have an
effective marketing
campaign if your real
estate leads are all
over the place. Getting
your leads in one
database is the basis of
strong marketing for
2016.
LIMING ZHAO
CTO
COMPASS
#ICNY
INSIGHTS
I would tell brokers
to build a team
together with their
agents, because
different perspectives
bring about different
insights and
opportunities.

  • 5. LISA ARCHER CEO LIVE LOVE INTERNATIONAL The best CRM out there is the one that you use. None of them matter if you don’t use them. #ICNY INSIGHTS
  • 6. ZVI BAND CEO AND COFOUNDER CONTACTUALLY #ICNY INSIGHTS Regardless of whether you use Zillow or buy ads or go on social media, it still comes back to the basics of being a great real estate agent and managing relationships.
  • 7. WENDY BANNER ASSOCIATE BROKER THE WENDY BANNER TEAM AT LONG AND FOSTER REAL ESTATE #ICNY INSIGHTS It’s all about managing expectations upfront. Tell your clients you will work hard to sell their home by doing things like networking with fellow agents and showing their house often.
  • 8. NICK BALDWIN CEO, NORTH AMERICA BALDWIN DREAM TEAM AT KELLER WILLIAMS NJ METRO GROUP #ICNY INSIGHTS Facebook ads are more about giving something of value to the consumer and not so much making it about yourself.
  • 9. MATT BARBA CEO AND COFOUNDER PLACESTER #ICNY INSIGHTS Every agent needs a common operating system. Technology is taking over the real estate world, and everything needs to be integrated for agents to work efficiently and become successful.
  • 10. LEIGH BROWN CEO LEIGH BROWN & ASSOCIATES #ICNY INSIGHTS We can't count on the industry to educate Realtors. If you want your broker to do more training, then get your ass in that chair with them.
  • 11. SEAN CARPENTER DIRECTOR OF TRAINING CB WEST SHELL/KING THOMPSON #ICNY INSIGHTS Standing out from the noise used to mean ‘the loudest person wins.’ Now, agents who capture someone’s attention by being ‘in their space and in their face’ have better chances to succeed.
  • 12. JARED COHEN MARKETING MANAGER TOWN RESIDENTIAL #ICNY INSIGHTS When I create content, I ask myself three questions: Is it informative? Is it entertaining? Is it a utility? If the answer to any of them is no, I don’t create the content.
  • 13. SETH DAILEY COFOUNDER THE DAILEY GROUP OF KELLER WILLIAMS REALTY #ICNY INSIGHTS You can only improve what you measure. At the end of the day, it’s all about getting homes sold, and that means you need to track your work in real- time.
  • 14. SAMANTHA DEBIANCHI FOUNDER AND REALTOR DEBIANCHI REAL ESTATE #ICNY INSIGHTS It’s great to be aware of all the social channels that are out there, but stick with the ones that work. If Facebook works, stick with Facebook. If Instagram works, stick with Instagram.
  • 15. GWEN DAUBENMEYER CEO AND ASSOCIATE BROKER THE INTEGRITY TEAM AT RE/MAX #ICNY INSIGHTS Buyers and sellers research online, but when it comes to buying and selling, they want human connection. While production and experience are important, the human connection wins the ink.
  • 16. CHRISTINA ETHRIDGE FOUNDER LEADSANDLEVERAGE.COM #ICNY INSIGHTS There’s a big difference between using Facebook Ads Manager and Power Editor to create targeted ads and Boosting posts to just anyone using the social network.
  • 17. MATT FETICK AGENT KELLER WILLIAMS REALTY #ICNY INSIGHTS People will leave your agency if they feel you are a ceiling to their success. If they see you as an enabler of their success, though, why would they ever want to leave?
  • 18. LOUISE PHILLIPS FORBES BROKER HALSTEAD PROPERTY #ICNY INSIGHTS If you have a philosophy that there’s enough money and abundance and if you can be generous with your knowledge and time, the money will come back tenfold.
  • 19. MARGUERITE GIGUERE AGENT WINDERMERE REAL ESTATE #ICNY INSIGHTS Stop talking about real estate on your blog and start talking about the community and things that are actually important to your audience.
  • 20. SETH GODIN AUTHOR, KEYNOTE SPEAKER, AND MARKETING EXPERT #ICNY INSIGHTS This is the connection revolution, and we win with two things: trust and attention. You don't get attention by yelling at people, but rather by getting people to talk about you.
  • 21. DR. SVENJA GUDELL CHIEF ECONOMIST ZILLOW #ICNY INSIGHTS We’ll actually see an uptick of Chinese buyers, especially at the higher end of the market. I don’t think we’ll see a dropoff of activity from them in 2016.
  • 22. CORAL GUNDLACH REALTOR REDWOOD REALTY #ICNY INSIGHTS Even if you’re not getting direct deals from your reviews, if you have a great set of client reviews online, you have a great chance of at least getting some referral business.
  • 23. ASHTON GUSTAFSON OWNER AND BROKER BISHOP REALTOR GROUP #ICNY INSIGHTS Your human thumbprint is greater than your digital footprint. After all, we’d rather be told we’re loved than tweeted we’re loved.
  • 24. CHRIS HELLER CEO KELLER WILLIAMS REALTY #ICNY INSIGHTS When the agents are sharing in the success of an agency, they feel like partners. There’s a different dynamic when everyone on a team works toward the same goals.
  • 25. MADISON HILDEBRAND PRESIDENT AND FOUNDER THE MALIBU LIFE #ICNY INSIGHTS Your personal presentation and personal branding are extremely important. No matter what price point you’re at, you need to present yourself professionally to the world.
  • 26. BRAD INMAN PUBLISHER AND OWNER INMAN NEWS #ICNY INSIGHTS Consolidation is proof that disruption is going on. Brokers are paying attention — and organizations are merging to weather the disruption.
  • 27. MARCI JAMES SOCIAL MEDIA AND INDUSTRY OUTREACH MANAGER MOVE #ICNY INSIGHTS As a brand, it’s our job to have a consistent brand message across all channels — print, online, and offline — and all devices: desktop and mobile.
  • 28. NOAH JAROSH MEDIA PLANNER LIKEABLE MEDIA #ICNY INSIGHTS Facebook is so unique because its ad targeting is so specific. You can really find that audience very specifically on Facebook and use it to bolster your advertising strategy as a whole.
  • 29. ANNE JONES REALTOR WINDERMERE REAL ESTATE #ICNY INSIGHTS Technology, at its best, will work for you around the clock, and one of the best examples of this is the real estate video.
  • 30. GLENN KELMAN CEO REDFIN #ICNY INSIGHTS We live in a push- button economy now. When we push the button on our phone, we expect food to arrive at our door. That kind of thinking is now coming to real estate.
  • 31. MAGGIE KENT BROKER CORE #ICNY INSIGHTS If you’re new to the business, ask for help. Be resourceful. Ask questions. Make a list of things you want to learn early on in your career to set it in motion.
  • 32. BEN KINNEY OPERATING PRINCIPAL KELLER WILLIAMS REALTY #ICNY INSIGHTS I want to have a high- quality life and have good relationships. If you focus on the who rather than the what, you can have an amazing life and an amazing business.
  • 33. DOLLY LENZ OWNER DOLLY LENZ REAL ESTATE #ICNY INSIGHTS Wherever you are located, know your housing market cold. You need to be able to walk the walk and talk the talk to win over your leads.
  • 34. DAVE LINIGER CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD AND COFOUNDER RE/MAX #ICNY INSIGHTS I always tell people not to put down that they've done $10 million in sales. I tell them to say, ‘I’ve helped over 250 families buy and sell their homes.’
  • 35. JENNIFER MARCHETTI CMO BETTER HOMES & GARDENS REAL ESTATE #ICNY INSIGHTS Take a really, really hard look in the mirror and be honest about what you’re good at and what you’re not good at. That’s the biggest route to failure: if you follow what everyone else is doing.
  • 36. JIM MARKS HEAD GEEK VIRTUAL RESULTS #ICNY INSIGHTS Understand when people are on mobile they have different things they want to do than desktop. You need to pare your web presence down to fit perfectly on mobile.
  • 37. RACHANA MATHEW TECHNICAL PROJECT MANAGER RE/MAX INTEGRA #ICNY INSIGHTS Take the time to understand the analytics and data you have to make informed business decisions, including with your hiring.
  • 38. RICHARD MENDENHALL BROKER AND OWNER RE/MAX BOONE REALTY #ICNY INSIGHTS Over 90 percent of innovation fails, so you've got to be very careful about where you're going. But don't ridicule it. I think that's a big deal going into the future.
  • 39. LAURA MONROE DIRECTOR OF MARKETING REALSATISFIED #ICNY INSIGHTS You need to be clear not just about the consumer experience on social media, but also how the brand is being affected by your social content.
  • 40. NICOLE OGE CMO DOUGLAS ELLIMAN REAL ESTATE #ICNY INSIGHTS Unlike generations prior, Generation Z is much more skeptical to the information available to them. These next generations are the guardrails that are going to keep us a bit more honest.
  • 41. SETH PRICE VP OF INDUSTRY RELATIONS PLACESTER #ICNY INSIGHTS If you want to build your brand bank account, focus on providing value to your audience even when there’s no sale to be made. This is what ‘trust marketing’ is all about.
  • 42. RAJ QSAR PRINCIPAL AND OWNER THE BOUTIQUE REAL ESTATE GROUP #ICNY INSIGHTS I see 2016 as a time for agents to use available tech to connect deeper on a personal level within our networks. Use tech to create real- life relationships and develop and nurture your sphere.
  • 43. KYLE RANK MANAGING BROKER BHHS YORK SIMPSON UNDERWOOD REALTY #ICNY INSIGHTS It’s 2016. Video is no longer an option — it’s mandatory. It’s going to help your SEO when you post videos and show your knowledge of your market.
  • 44. NELA RICHARDSON CHIEF ECONOMIST REDFIN #ICNY INSIGHTS A lot of people are touring homes lately, but fewer and fewer are making offers, so sellers and their agents need to be careful about their listing price.
  • 45. RICH ROSA COFOUNDER BUYERS BROKERS ONLY, LLC #ICNY INSIGHTS The content is the message. What are you trying to convey to your audience with your content? Start with the target audience and buyer persona you’re trying to attract.
  • 46. ZACH SCHABOT FOUNDER GOCONNECT AND GO REALTY #ICNY INSIGHTS Look for consumers to hang on to their cash instead of investing in housing. If your business plan and marketing efforts don't acknowledge this temporary behavioral shift, you’re in trouble.
  • 47. SETH SEMILOF PUBLISHER HAUTE LIVING AND HAUTE TIME MAGAZINE #ICNY INSIGHTS Create great content with calls to action and post those to social media to grow your following. Don’t fall through the trap of buying followers on social media.
  • 48. GLENN SHIMKUS VP OF PRODUCT DOCUSIGN #ICNY INSIGHTS In 2016, I expect to see an integration of the tools used by brokerages to manage the data and docs that drive the transaction with those used by mortgage and title to close the transaction.
  • 49. KARA SWISHER EXECUTIVE EDITOR RE/CODE #ICNY INSIGHTS You don’t have to see the houses to buy them anymore. Virtual reality is really changing the home search. What’s happening in VR is really transformative.
  • 50. MARK TEPPER VP OF SALES AND DEVELOPMENT MATTERPORT #ICNY INSIGHTS Realtors shouldn’t fear technology. They should embrace it, as it can open up doors for them — like reaching a global audience — that otherwise would remain closed.
  • 51. JOHN THORNTON PARTNER LEAD OF REAL ESTATE GOOGLE #ICNY INSIGHTS Google has always prioritized landing pages on desktop that offer great user experiences. We’re just applying the same prioritization to mobile sites now.
  • 52. AMANDA TODD AGENT REALTY ONE GROUP #ICNY INSIGHTS Be very intentional with what you want in life: for your family, for your business. Remember those important themes so you don’t end up wasting time on things that don’t matter.
  • 53. FRED TOWNES COO AND COFOUNDER PLACESTER #ICNY INSIGHTS Technology is finally on its way to enabling the real estate professional to create customer experiences that demonstrate the unique value of the agent in the home buying process.
  • 54. JOSH TUCKER MANAGING PRINCIPAL AND BROKER ANCHOR REAL ESTATE #ICNY INSIGHTS It’s important to figure out who you need to network with. Some agents think going out to a bar is networking. Plan out your networking and figure out who you need to go after.
  • 55. MAURICIO UMANSKY CEO THE AGENCY I think what stops most real estate agents is the fear of failure. If agents can get past this fear and be aggressive and be eloquent, they are going to succeed a lot more than they fail. #ICNY INSIGHTS
  • 56. ALLEN WEISS FOUNDER AND CEO WEISS RESIDENTIAL RESEARCH #ICNY INSIGHTS Pay attention to the local market you’re in and assume each house has an individual personality to understand what’s happening to prices in your area.
  • 57. DAVID WIGGS CEO ACTIVERAIN #ICNY INSIGHTS Work the process and make sure you have the discipline built into your time recruiting to find the right people to join your firms.
  • 58. MARILYN WILSON PARTNER WAV GROUP #ICNY INSIGHTS You can’t have an effective marketing campaign if your real estate leads are all over the place. Getting your leads in one database is the basis of strong marketing for 2016.
  • 59. LIMING ZHAO CTO COMPASS #ICNY INSIGHTS I would tell brokers to build a team together with their agents, because different perspectives bring about different insights and opportunities.
