If you’re new here, I’m Melody — mom, wife, community builder, full-time real estate entrepreneur, and the kind of woman who refuses to settle for “just getting by.”

This week, we’re talking about how I grew a business that not only generates income but builds a life. From revenue share to real estate deals to strategic relationships that changed everything — this is the episode I wish I had when I was starting out.

Let’s get into the exact systems, strategies, and relationships that helped me multiply my income without losing myself in the process.

#1: The Moment I Knew I Had to Bet on Myself

Let me take you back for a second…

There was a season when my bank account looked like it couldn’t support anything extra. But deep down, I knew something had to shift. So, I did something scary: I hired a coach.

I said yes before I knew how I’d afford it. And that one decision opened doors I didn’t even know existed.

Because here’s the truth: your network doesn’t grow until you do.

When I started getting in rooms with women doing the things I wanted to do, I gained clarity, confidence, and strategy that no YouTube video could ever offer.

#2: The 3 Networks That Built My Business

🔹 Mentors & Coaches

These were the people who were already walking the path I wanted to take. I didn’t expect them to save me. I asked them to show me.

✨ Tangible tip:Think of 3 people you admire in real estate or business. DM one today and ask how you can support, learn from, or connect with them. Always lead with value.

🔹 Community & Collaboration

Hosting events, sending newsletters, and posting behind-the-scenes moments in my stories wasn’t just marketing—it was connection. And that’s what keeps people coming back.

✨ Tangible tip:Run a 5-day value challenge on Instagram or Facebook. Show up each day with one quick tip, insight, or question to drive authentic conversations in the DMs.

🔹 Strategic Partnerships & Revenue Share

Aligning with eXp Realty gave me a way to mentor agents, grow a team, and create recurring income that extends far beyond transactions. I didn’t fully understand the model at first—I just knew it felt aligned.

✨ Tangible tip:Grab a blank piece of paper and list every agent or entrepreneur you’ve helped in the last 6–12 months. That’s your warm network. Start there.

#3: The Systems That Keep Me Showing Up

When life got fuller—becoming a mom (and then a mom of two), flipping houses with my husband—I needed more than ambition. I needed systems.

Here’s what I implemented:

Follow-up workflows inside my CRM
Repurposable newsletter templates
A simple IG content calendar so I never had to wonder, “What should I post?”

✨ Tangible tip:Record your top 3 most-asked questions as short Reels and schedule them to drop weekly. That’s your easiest, most consistent visibility play.

#4: Building Wealth as a Family

I didn’t just want to sell homes. I wanted to own them.

My husband and I started flipping properties, talking about legacy, and acting on investment opportunities—even when the timing wasn’t “perfect.”

✨ Tangible tip:Block 30 minutes this week with your spouse or biz partner. Look at 1 investment opportunity together—even if you don’t move forward. Start building the habit.

#5: Final Thoughts — Your Network Is a Long Game

It’s not about collecting contacts. It’s about building trust.

You don’t need thousands in your network. You need the right 15.

Keep showing up. Keep giving. Keep asking how you can serve before you sell.

✨ Tangible tip:DM 5 people this week—past clients, fellow agents, or local business owners—and ask how you can support them.
