Top performers don’t avoid failure—they outlearn it. Former Tom Ferry coach and Navi Title VP Lance Billingsley reveals how the 13% win by focusing hard, iterating fast, and executing with discipline.

In this episode, you’ll hear how to pick one growth lever, master it, and scale without burning out.

  • Why 87% of agents fail—and what the 13% do differently

  • The FIRE framework (Focus, Initiative, Resiliency, Execution) and the four-burner analogy

  • Shotgun vs. sniper marketing: master one channel, then delegate

  • Teams as “neighborhood groups” and why brokerages struggle to systematize success

  • Real-world playbooks: geo-farming at scale vs. social/video domination

  • The “one deal pays for it” myth and how to think about ROI and runway

  • Using AI to shorten feedback loops and fail faster
