Shownotes

Can you build a real estate business without cold calling, purchased leads, or sales scripts? Rachel Kilmer sold 231 homes and over $75 million in volume in her first five years using two things: the people she already knew, and consistent social media content

Host Jean Mitchell of Trilogy Real Estate sits down with Rachel Kilmer, known as Rach the Realtor, to break down the systems behind a referral based real estate business.

In this episode you will learn:

- Why you should post for the people who already know you instead of chasing followers, and why a video that gets 25 views beats a Saturday open house

- How to pick the one social platform you already scroll, learn its trends, and use repurpose.io to push that content out to six others automatically

- The annual referral plan Rachel prints as a poster and hangs in her garage: three to five client events, ten postcards, and regular pop by visits

- How a $300 photos with Santa event built a database she is still marketing to six years later
