  • Using Personality Psychology to Build Trust and Get Hired
    May 31 2025

    Want to become a top listing agent? It starts with understanding one thing: what your client really wants. In this episode, Dan Rochon dives deep into how to decode client behavior through social media, how to apply DISC profiles to influence conversations, and why replacing your “CMA” with an “economic review” will immediately elevate your perceived value. This is the foundation of CPI and the 360 Listing Consultation—where your only two jobs are: Consult and Get Hired.

    What you’ll learn on this episode

    • Start by asking “What do they want?” Every sales conversation hinges on this foundational question.
    • Social media is your intel tool: Learn how to decode DISC personality traits just by reviewing posts and photos.
    • Family-focused sellers need safety words: Use language like stable, secure, balanced, and certain to connect.
    • High D personalities? Be bullet-point direct: Avoid fluff. Go straight to the point or risk losing their attention.
    • Replace CMA with “Economic Review”: It positions you as a market authority, not just a data provider.
    • Presumptive video texts build authority: Introduce yourself before you arrive to anchor trust.
    • Deliver your value before the appointment: Use a full stack of touchpoints (calendar invite, video, testimonials, mail).
    • Use DISC to tailor your message: Matching communication styles increases conversion.
    • Your job at the appointment? Only two things: Consult and Get Hired. Period.
    • CPI systems work 85% of the time if you work the system. Show up. Learn. Implement. Win.

    Want to go from being a forgettable agent to a trusted advisor who wins listings before the meeting even starts?

  • How I Built a Million-Dollar Business with a Remote Team
    May 28 2025

    What separates the hires who stay for six years from those who quit in 90 days? In this episode, Dan Rochon shares powerful real-world lessons on hiring, retention, and leadership. You'll discover how to lead virtual assistants with clarity, how to build loyalty, and why time is more valuable than money when scaling your business.

    • Virtual assistants need a roadmap: give clarity, structure, and leadership not just tasks.
    • Leadership is partnership: don’t just assign goals; co-create the plan and give them the tools to succeed.

    • Scaling requires leverage: leverage people, processes, and time to grow beyond your limits.
    • Metrics matter: Dan shares his exact investment-to-return model using showing agents to close contracts.
