On this week’s episode of the Over Ask Podcast, Candace Decker, a cold-calling machine from Florida, joins Matt Lionetti and The Broke Agent. The conversation starts with how she got 36 deals in her first year as an agent, along with a chilling story about her first listing appointment.

From there, they discuss how she moved to Illinois, what brought her back to Florida, and what she did differently, including how she mastered scripts for cold calls to expireds and how she applied what she learned from a Tom Ferry Conference.

Candace also revealed what she did when Hurricane Ian hit Florida and how that drove her content. During this time, she focused on helping her community, quickly becoming a neighborhood leader and a living, breathing blueprint for agents to follow when natural disasters strike.

Finally, Candace shared what she’s doing now with her content, how she’s getting leads for her team when she’s no longer in production, how she gets clients to trust the agents on her team, and what she’s doing to recruit and train new team members.
