Leading by Influence with Jeff Tricoli - Episode 101 -

Jeff never wanted to be tied into working for a big company, even with his Master’s Degree in Computer Science and Technology. Instead, he has a strong entrepreneurial drive, and wanted to get into real estate to fix and flip homes. He could not find a good agent so he got his license and started working. He found many people wanted to work with a good realtor, so over time he figured why not do that instead of the fix and flip, and then have no overhead and less risk. 

Jeff built up his business to 80-85 homes by himself, with no help, even taking his own photography. This helped him learn how to be efficient. Eventually he hired his wife, formed a team, and has continued to grow each time he leverages an addition to his team. He and his team focuses on super-efficient activities to help them achieve more, especially with time-blocking. Everything must be intentional, and if it’s not on his calendar, it doesn’t exist.

Jeff focuses on what he has to do to meet his goals!

A key aspect of Jeff’s success is having the inside sales team to get the process started with marketing, farming, and their online presence. It was this support that helped increase the focus on listings and enhance their value proposition. With virtual assistants, they are at about 25 team members, with the majority focused on support. Jeff teaches his team how to utilize the leverage they have, and earn the right to more leverage when they are successful. There are also several people who train each other and know the business, so if someone leaves it is easy to fill the position–the team has depth and good training processes. Jeff understands the individual, and through influence he leads them to the goals they want, and what the team wants.
