Brett:
So keep that in mind. By the way, you can learn more about Phil Stringer, by going to Phil stringer.com. It’s filtering.com. You can also search on Instagram at Phil stringer. So keeping that in mind, let’s dive right into the topic at hand, right, which is five incredible AI tools you won’t believe even exist before we even dive into those five tools. So I want you to talk about what’s the number one secret to growing your real estate business with AI and then we can dive into the actual practical tools.
Phil:
Yeah, you know, for me, the biggest secret would be to learn how to use these tools like st chat GPT. Right. GPT is very widely used because there’s a free version. And it’s very widely available, right? Use these tools, but learn how to use them the right way. Here’s what I think is happening. I think everything in the world is AI now. Because it’s all over the place. We’re hearing about it, it’s the biggest thing. It’s really the biggest technological advancement since the internet. And companies are jumping on this thing. And they’re using AI as a marketing term. Okay. So there are tools and software that are being promoted as AI powered. And nothing has changed, right? It’s just chat. GPT opened our eyes to artificial intelligence. And now everyone’s talking about AI. So I’ll give you an example. There’s a calendar that I’ve used for the last three years where if I have a gap in my calendar, it will move some things around to give me the most efficient schedule for that day, right? So if it’s not a meeting, like say this one where it’s specific on the calendar, I can’t move it. If it’s a variable, it’ll move it around to specific times and make my data most efficient. It’s a pretty neat tool. Well, after GPT came out within the last, I think six months, this tool is now promoting themselves as the first AI powered calendar. Well, I’ve been using it the whole time and no function penalty has changed. And so I think we need to be careful because everything is marketed as AI powered, because that’s a marketing term. And it’s a hot term now, right. But we’re getting very overwhelmed because there’s hundreds of tools. And so I feel the stress, I feel overwhelmed because I’m going around speaking, you know, all the time in different different places. I’m flying to Canada. Tomorrow, we’re doing an event in Vancouver, then we’re going up to Kelowna. And every time I do these events, it’s almost like there’s relief when they are in these events. Because I tell people, Hey, I’m here to condense time for you. Because I’m going to tell you a few tools that are really good that you should be looking out for. You don’t have to worry about the 100 other tools that are constantly being marketed to you every day. Because that creates such overwhelming people that don’t know what to do that creates inaction. And obviously, inaction isn’t going to move the needle. So what I tell people is focus on two tools. So even if I give you five, today, I would focus on two that you feel might be able to be implemented in your business that could move the needle for you. Once you’ve mastered those two, maybe add in another one or another one, but you can’t try and do 10 tools at once or you’ll be below average at all 10
Brett:
Got it. So it’s key to understand that AI is now being, you know, presented as it’s a marketing ploy. Right? If for some, it’s becoming an overwhelming situation, because it’s so it’s just flooding, everything’s flooding the system, right? And so the key is to master let’s say two tools at a time and focus like a laser on that. I think it’s kind of like the big Domino, right? Like, what’s the one big domino in your business, if you can knock over will make all the rest of the stuff irrelevant or just less painful? Maybe like what’s the one AI tool if you can master, you know, for your particular business, it’s gonna be a different answer for different people, right? That would help to move everything forward and make it irrelevant. So with that being said, Bill, let’s dive into that if you had to choose even just one. We’re real estate professionals. That’s the big domino that if they mastered this one right now, generally speaking would make the biggest difference and you might apply that to a new agent. Immediate agents and maybe even a masterful agent have been doing it for a long time.
Phil:
Yeah, I mean, if there’s one, if I were just to say blanket statement, because people ask me, that’s probably the number one question I get asked when I’m at a conference, people come up to me, they’re like, hey, what’s the one tool that I should use as a real estate agent? The answer is always gonna be it depends on what you’re focusing on. Like, I can’t give a blanket statement of like, Hey, here’s the tool. But if I were forced to, I would say chat. GPT is the blanket tool, where if you can learn to use it the right way, it will give you the most bang for your buck. Now, that being said, my answer when I’m having a conversation with someone, and it’s not just a podcast, where I’m going to say, here’s a blanket statement, my answer is always going to be what are you trying to accomplish? Right? So I want to learn about what they’re currently good at, what’s their marketing right now? Where are they weak? And where do they need to improve? So once I have that conversation, and I can get to understand their business and their goals, their market, their price point, their target audience, those type of things, then I can say, Okay, well, it sounds like you should focus on this tool here. So for an example, let’s say, let’s say there’s a team who really lacks short form content on Instagram and Tiktok, but they want to get there, they know that they need to do short form video, but they’re not super consistent. Well, then I would tell them to use this tool called Opus Pro, which is one of the ones we’re going to look at today to help their short form content. So again, it’s just tailored to what they need and what they’re weak at what they’re trying to do and what they’re trying to accomplish.
