#136: Calculating Your 2021 Referral Explosion
I've done a "calculate your referral explosion" episode before.  But this year is different... we're looking at a few more factors to help you decide the number of referrals you might receive this year versus what you should be receiving.  Whether you do 'back of the envelope' type math or download our referral explosion worksheet so you can easily follow along... you need to go through this formula so you are prepared for the year you're willing to work for.  All resources and the downloadable worksheet can be found on the show notes page at www.staceybrownrandall.com/136.

#135: This Number Matters Most for More Referrals
If I asked you which number matters most if you want to receive more referrals this year, do you know what it is? Would you say the number of referrals received in 2020? Or the total number of referrals you've ever received?  Would you guess the number of new clients you need this year?  What if it isn't any of these metrics.  What if another number matters most so you can receive more referrals this year?  And what if that "number" is only half the story?  In this episode, we dive into what this number is and what else you have to "know" about this number to make it work.  Plus I give you an easy activity to get to the heart of this number so you can use the information to help you receive more referrals in 2021.  You can access the download to complete the activity and the other resources mentioned in this episode on the show notes page at www.staceybrownrandall.com/135.

#133: The Future Always Belongs to Finishers
Jon Acuff, author or Finish, sums up perfectly what the Goal Finishers Club is all about when he said, "The future belongs to finishers."  Those who finish their goals own the future because they are moving forward, making progress step-by-step and making the future they want a reality. In this episode we continue our conversation with a few business owners who embody this finishing mantra.  All resources for this episode can be found on the show notes page at www.staceybrownrandall.com/133.

Are you still holding out on going through the Reverse Goal Setting process? If you've downloaded the workbook, then you know it's not just a page or two you go through. There's a little bit more involved.  It requires you to think, ponder, consider options and write things down. It's critically necessary for your business. Yes, and I'll prove it to you. In this episode you'll hear from business owners who went through the Reverse Goal Setting process for the first time in 2017, 2018 and 2019 and how their business and life has shifted dramatically since they reserved their goals.  They hit goals they hadn't before, they shifted or pivoted as needed this year so COVID didn't slow them down.  And in one tip, you'll learn how to involve your team in your Reverse Goal Setting process.  Don't skip this episode and you can find all resources on the show notes page at www.staceybrownrandall.com/132.

Whether you can't wait for this year to end or want to hold on to it for a bit longer... it's time to start turning our attention to the future. And not just next year... but a few years to come.

#121: Deep Dive into Referrals - Real Estate
For this 4-part series we are starting on the podcast, I am answering common questions I receive about referrals that are specific to different industries. These aren't the general questions I receive - like how do I get started, how does it work to receive referrals without asking, how to be consistent, how to track, etc.  But specific questions that pop up once someone has decided to get serious about generating referrals without asking. I've broken down the industries so I can cover specific questions that matter to that industry. Though I think you'll learn a lot from each industry episode! Up first with this episode is the real estate market... specifically the "selling of real estate" with real estate agents, home stagers and mortgage brokers.   You can find the resources mentioned in this episode on the show notes page at www.staceybrownrandall.com/121.
