In an industry where “ leverage”, and “building a team” are popular buzzwords, it’s easy to fall into the trap of scaling for scale’s sake, and end up with a draining, disorganized, and costly business. 

Erik Hatch is a team leader who plays the game of business at a really high level, with over 6000 homes sold and 500 coaching members. Like many of us, he’s made his fair share of mistakes along the way, and today he teaches agents how to build the right way. 

Hiring and hoping isn’t a feasible strategy for growth, and in order to truly have freedom, there’s an intentional and strategic path we have to follow. 

Why are our first hiring decisions so critical to the type of growth we’ll have? 

In this episode, the founder and leader at Hatch Realty and Hatch Coaching, shares the costly mistakes we can avoid in the path to leverage. 

You’ll also learn;

• Why Erik believes your first two hires should be admins not agents
• The retention tool of all retention tools
• Erik’s $2 million dollar mistake and what he would do differently

Guest Bio

Erik Hatch is an entrepreneur, public speaker, RealtorⓇ, author, coach, investor, do-gooder, husband, father and mediocre golfer. He is the founder and leader at Hatch Realty and Hatch Coaching. Erik has nearly 20 businesses that he owns and/or operates with the help of some tremendous partners and 2 non-profit movements that have raised more than $3 million to help serve children and families in need.

Erik started Hatch Realty in 2014 with a dream to create a place where he could pour into people and help them create runways to reach their dreams. Erik knew – when feeling seen and appreciated – these same great people would deliver world-class service to their clients. While this driven entrepreneur serves as CEO of Hatch Realty, his energy is now spent casting vision, marketing the business and leading and coaching people. Erik’s goal to foster great relationships while staying ahead of industry trends led to the transition to Real Broker, LLC, in August 2021. With Hatch Realty at the core, this partnership with a national brokerage allowed the team to continue taking care of their clients while offering powerful tools to better communicate in this tech-driven world.
