About this episode
On this final day of 2020, Matt and Garrett take a look back at the year that was, and the amazing journey it provided. While this past year threw a lot of challenges at everyone, there were some remarkable success stories out there, and today our hosts take an in-depth look at the strategies and processes that garnered so much success, and how they can work for you at any time of any year in any market. They begin with their 'holes in the boat' analogy and the benefits of both gratitude and of breaking the pattern of always waiting until the next year for things to get better. They then look at the different responses agents had to the pandemic, and explore the best of them such as phone calls, handwritten notes, gratitude, photography, videography, and the 'pop by'. Bringing commitment, creativity and heartfelt sincerity to these Ninja systems resulted in great rewards both personally and professionally for so many agents during this pandemic year, and they can do the same for you no matter when you implement them.
