The Tom Ferry Podcast Experience

Welcome back to Tom Ferry's Outliers Series—where we unpack the mindset and disciplines of agents doing extraordinary things.

 

This week, Tom sits down with Chris Wolf — a former home builder and house flipper who made a career pivot into real estate sales just 14 months ago. He knew no one in his market. He had no sphere of influence. And he had a family counting on him.

 

He finished his first year at $510,000 GCI. But it wasn't luck, a hot market, or a secret strategy that got him there….

 

In this episode, you'll discover:

 

Why he hired a full-time assistant just two months into his career — and why it was the best decision he made

The two lead sources responsible for 78% of his transactions

How he went from $130K GCI in his first six months to $380K in the second — and what changed

The "just start" strategy he uses on the 40% of days he doesn't feel like doing the work

Why personal responsibility — not market conditions — is the only variable that matters

 

If you're waiting for the market to get easier before you go all in… this episode is your wake-up call.

 

And as you'll learn, Chris credits his explosive first year to working with a Tom Ferry Coach.

Want proof that you can hit $500K GCI before your second anniversary in real estate?

Welcome back to Tom Ferry's Outliers Series—where we unpack the mindset and disciplines of agents doing extraordinary things.

 

This week, Tom sits down with Joy Lynn, a Salt Lake City agent who started last year with a $250,000 GCI goal… then blew past it so fast she had to keep raising the ceiling. She finished the year at $750,000.

 

But it wasn't a new tool, a viral strategy, or a lucky market that got her there.

 

It was a simple rule that’s far more powerful than anything else. 

 

In this episode, you'll discover:

The gap that’s probably costing you hundreds of thousands of dollars

A 90-day rule for evaluating new habits, systems, or prospecting methods

The non-negotiable morning routine she credits for her entire transformation

Why she stopped cold calling – and what she did instead

 

If you're working hard but keep chasing the next shiny object… this episode will stop you in your tracks.

 

And as you’ll learn from the episode, Joy credits her success to working with a Tom Ferry Coach.
