On this week’s episode of the Over Ask Podcast, San Diego real estate agent and YouTube legend Dan Parker joins Matt Lionetti and The Broke Agent to discuss, first of all, how he gets 63% of his business from YouTube.
The conversation starts with the type of video Dan started with and why he pivoted away from it, followed by the creative process behind the videos that attracted (and continue to attract) buyers interested in moving to San Diego.
From there, he reveals how he gets and converts leads, the reasoning behind his content buckets and YouTube playlists, and how he gets short-form content from his long-form videos.
Finally, The Broke Agent goes into detail on how Dan’s videos retain his audience’s attention from start to finish—and what agents on YouTube can draw from that.
