How to Use “Hard Value” to Recruit Agents from Other Brokerages

If I were to sit down with you today and talk about why an agent should join your firm, what would be the top five reasons?

I do this all the time—teaching live classes and coaching brokerage owners and team leaders. This is a conversation I love to have. Often, I'll hear things like, "We're a family-oriented organization, we have a great culture, we do a lot of social events, we're really engaged with the community, and we're hyper-local. Staff is great, we have an open-door policy."

Those are all great things… But these are centered around what I call “soft value.”

Soft value is what keeps agents at your company. It’s important for retention—and trust me, you want to retain agents.

But if you’re going to move agents from one company to another, you need a different conversation, one focused on “hard value.”

Hard value moves agents, soft value keeps them.

So, what's hard value? It’s anything that helps me close more transactions in the next 12 months. When I'm sitting across from you, that’s what I want to hear. How will you help me close more deals? That should be your top five talking points.

Soft value can come later, but the main focus should be on hard value—things like your technology, lead generation strategies, training, branding, marketing, and social media efforts. Essentially, everything you're doing to drive more leads to your agents.

If you can show that your agents are closing more deals than the average agent in the market, even better. But that's the focus you need to have.

Have a great day, and good selling!
