Your broker isn’t ghosting you because they’re lazy, they’re ghosting you because your deal is soft. In this straight-shooting solo episode, Kyle breaks down the real reason you’re not getting callbacks, tours, or deals done and spoiler: it’s probably you. From missing financials and vague site criteria to relying on flashy branding instead of real preparation, this episode is your wake-up call. If you want brokers to take you seriously and landlords to say yes, you need to show up with more than hype, you need to be buttoned up.
● Why brokers ignore you—and what top-performing clients do differently
● What landlords actually care about (it’s not your TikTok following)
● How your past ghosting or failed LOIs might be haunting you in the market
● What to include in a franchisee pitch deck that gets brokers moving
● The single biggest mindset shift that makes brokers work harder for you
