Coach’s Corner: Should You Tell Clients You Have Another Job?
If you’ve ever wondered whether being open about your dual-career life will hurt your business or help it, this episode brings clarity and confidence to the conversation.
This podcast is for the real estate agents building their dream life and business on their terms, especially if you’re working another job, raising a family, or building it all at once.
In today’s Coach’s Corner, we explore a common mindset challenge: whether clients will take you seriously if they know you have another job. Inspired by a Facebook post shared with me (and a thank-you to former podcast guest Lori Dabbs Gayton for bringing it forward), we walk through this using the RISE Framework. You’ll walk away with grounded confidence and a sustainable path forward.
You’ll learn:
• Why being a Double Duty Agent is your reality, not a liability
• How to question the belief that clients expect 24/7 availability
• A simple way to communicate your schedule with confidence
• What clients truly want from you
• How setting expectations and building systems supports both your business and your life
This isn’t just content. This is coaching. Let’s go.
Your clients don’t need you all the time. They need clarity about when you’re available and what happens if something urgent comes up.
What came up for you in this episode? What’s one small, meaningful action you can take today to set clearer expectations with your clients?
