Episode 245 - Amy Karol, The A-Team with Coldwell Banker

4 days ago · 38 minutes

Our guest today is part of a husband and wife duo who are relatively new to the industry but have already reached great success since starting. Joining us is Amy Karol, of Coldwell Banker in St Petersburg, Florida. Amy and her husband Adam, are a full-time husband and wife real estate agent team who go by the A-team. In this episode, join Amy and I as we discuss just how she and her husband landed in real estate, some advice for running a great business, and pet food donations in memory of a furry friend. Listen in to hear how Amy and Adam Karol, two Long Islanders, managed to make it down to Florida! Top Takeaways: Amy Karol’s Advice for New Agents: Amy offers a few great pieces of advice to new agents. The most important part of the information she provides is to find mentors who have different strengths that can help you along your real estate journey. It is essential to find people who are willing to help you out and watch you grow. Amy also shares that in the beginning, it’s easy to get caught in the growth aspect of learning, attending webinars, and taking classes. Education helps you grow and should always be something to strive for, but you also have to be doing things that will help you to uncover new leads and ultimately generating business. “You know when you get your license, they don’t teach you in that first-class how to start a business or how to actually do anything that you need to do.” – Amy Karol [21:12] “You’re not taught how to start your business. You’re not taught how to do real estate. You feel like you have to learn everything. In one respect, that’s what’s so easy about us being the A-team. Adam is doing some things, and I’m doing other things, so I do have time to focus.” -Amy Karol [26:34] Episode Highlights: [00:27] Intro [00:43] Meet Amy Karol – One Half of The A-Team [01:37] Growing up in Long Island [05:20] What Amy misses most about Long Island [06:27] What Amy wanted to be at 15 [07:43] Attending Quinnipiac University [10:45] Working in Behavioral Intervention Services [13:06] An Unlikely Love Story [17:23] Teaching at St. Petersburg College [19:29] Amy and Adam’s start in real estate [22:36] Who impacted Amy’s growth and continued connections [24:18] Starting from scratch and fighting the doubts [26:00] Amy’s social media influence [28:03] Bindi’s Buddies pet food donations [33:02] Not mixing business with donation work [34:58] Amy’s advice for new agents [37:06] Connect with Amy Karole [37:35] Closing Thoughts [38:07] Outro Episode Notes: Joining us today is Amy Karol, a real estate agent at Coldwell Banker Real Estate, and part of a husband and wife real estate duo called the A-team.
