What’s in this episode:

What separates agents who survive year one from those who dominate it? In this highlight episode, you’ll hear from two standout new agents—one who ranked #2 out of 20,000+ agents and another leading in auto growth in a territory of 1,000+. They unpack what really moves the needle early in agency life: delegation, onboarding, team structure, and the often-overlooked power of follow-up systems. Whether you're just getting licensed or looking to reset your first-year game plan, this episode hands you the tactical playbook to accelerate growth fast.
