007: From Single Parent to Million Dollar Mom in Real Estate with Amanda Todd

The Art of Agency - A Launchpad for Realtors

Most people think of real estate as a sales career. But it’s about much more than sales. It’s about relationships. When real estate agents recognize that this is a relationship business, they can create a tremendously successful business that outpaces other agents.

A career in real estate can offer flexibility, but that flexibility comes with trade-offs. It’s a commission-based business, which means if you don’t sell, you don’t eat. But the benefits of commission mean that your earning powers are unlimited--as long as you’re willing to put in the work.

In this episode of The Art of Agency, Amanda Todd, the Million Dollar Mom, joins Jonathan and Mallory for a conversation about her journey from a stay-at-home mom to a wildly successful real estate agent. You know the old saying: When life hands you lemons, make lemonade. Facing life as a single mom following a divorce, Amanda threw herself into real estate, learning the ropes and establishing a reputation for success in the business. Today, the Million Dollar Mom runs the Amanda Todd Group, hosts a TV show, and just completed law school.

Jonathan and Mallory find out why her willingness to fail is the secret to all of Amanda’s success.

In this episode, you will hear:

• Amanda’s path to real estate after a life transition and the flexibility it allowed her to have with her kids
• The gamut of emotions she felt as she began to achieve success and the systems she put in place to manage her business while raising her children
• Why being willing to fail is Amanda’s secret to success
• How she got the nickname Million Dollar Mom and why it empowered her
• Amanda’s new show, The American Dream, and the message she wants to send with it
• The role her team plays in her ability to remain present for her family while running a successful business
• Why realtors can’t work commission check to commission check and the importance of reinvesting into your business
• The problems with real estate today and her tips for avoiding those issues
• The reason relationships matter in real estate and how you can build them
