On this week’s episode of The Walk Thru, Dan Oneil and The Broke Agent talk to Shane Burgman and Paige Steckling and get their take on sales goals for the first half of the year, 12 newbie agent behaviors, Meta’s new app, Threads, and this week’s viral Realtor video.

To start the episode, the group reflects on the first half of the year, their goals, and what they want to accomplish for the second half of the year.

Next, the group shares the frustrations of working with newbie buyer agents, like not understanding the rules, not communicating, or an overall lack of training.

The second half of the episode is all about marketing, starting with the launch of Instagram’s version of Twitter, Threads. The Broke Agent shares everything he’s learned about the new app over the last 12 hours and how real estate agents can use it to their advantage. To cap off this week’s episode, the group looks at a viral Realtor video from Petrina Owen.
