Stop Chasing Deals. Start Attracting Empires.
A CRE Broker's Guide to Winning High-Value Clients with a "Precision Weapon" Video Podcast
In commercial real estate, you live and die by the quality of your client list.
And let's be honest, the old ways of finding them are a grind. Cold calls, lukewarm networking events, generic mailers... it's a high-effort, low-yield game of "chasing." You're wasting precious time hoping to find a needle in a haystack.
What if you could flip the script? What if, instead of you hunting for clients, the perfect high-net-worth investors, ideal tenants, and savvy developers came hunting for you?
This is not a fantasy. This is the power of a
Video Podcast,and it's the single greatest untapped tool for CRE brokers today.
But you're a broker, not a YouTuber. You have critical questions:
- "Who is this even for?"
- "What do I possibly talk about that solves their problems?"
- "How do I get the right people—the ones who write 8-figure checks—to watch?"
- "And how does a 'view' turn into a phone call?"
Step 1: Who is Your Audience? (Stop Targeting Everyone)
Your first instinct is to say, "My audience is anyone who wants to buy or sell commercial property!" This is why most marketing fails.
A
video podcast is a precision weapon, not a shotgun. The riches are in the niches. You must choose.
- The Investor (The "Money"): This audience is analytical. They're looking for an "edge"—an insight into cap rates, off-market opportunities, or 1031 exchanges that no one else is talking about.
- The Tenant (The "End-User"): This audience is practical. They're worried about operating expenses, lease terms, and the future of their workspace. They're looking for a partner who understands their business.
- The Developer (The "Builder"): This audience is visionary. They're looking for a broker who gets zoning, permitting, and market gaps. They need a boots-on-the-ground expert.

Step 2: What Problems Do They Have? (Stop Selling, Start Solving)
Your video podcast is not the place to list your properties. Your audience doesn't care about your listings... yet. They care about their problems.
Your job is to become the
go-to authorityby solving their problems for free.
- If you chose Investors:
- The Problem: "I'm terrified of overpaying. I don't really understand the new zoning in San Pedro."
- Your Episode: "The 3 Hidden Pitfalls of the San Pedro Waterfront Redevelopment (and the 1 Massive Opportunity Everyone is Missing)."
- If you chose Tenants:
- The Problem: "I have no idea how to negotiate a T.I. (Tenant Improvement) allowance. My last lease was a disaster."
- Your Episode: "How to Get Your Landlord to Pay for Your New Office: A Tenant's Guide to T.I. Negotiations."
- If you chose Developers:
- The Problem: "The permitting process in Torrance is a black box. I don't know where to start."
- Your Episode: "5 People You Must Know at City Hall Before You Ever Submit a Plan: A Developer's Guide to Torrance."

Step 3: How Do You Get the Right Audience to Watch? (The "Omnipresent Authority" Plan)
This is where you stop being a broker and start being a media strategist. Your video podcast is the "Pillar"; everything else is a "Spoke" that drives traffic back to it.
This is your integrated, multi-channel game plan
.
- 1. Social Media (The "Golden Nugget"):
- The Plan: Your team (or ours) clips 3-5 short, 60-second "Golden Nuggets" from your 20-minute episode. These are the "mind-blowing" stats or killer insights.
- The Channel: Post these aggressively on LinkedIn and YouTube Shorts. This is your air war. It builds "top-of-mind" authority.
- 2. Email Blasts (The "Warm Nurture"):
- The Plan: Send your full episode (in a simple, clean email) to your existing list of clients, prospects, and colleagues.
- The Message: "I'm not just sending you a newsletter; I'm sharing the 20-minute masterclass I just recorded on [Your Solved Problem]. I hope it helps you win." This provides massive value and re-engages cold leads.
- 3. Newspaper & Radio (The "Old-School Twist"):
- The Plan: Don't just run a "Call me!" ad. That's what amateurs do. You're a pro. Your 15-second radio spot or small print ad should say:
- The Ad: "Thinking of investing in South Bay real estate? Don't. Not until you've heard the 'South Bay CRE Report' podcast with [Your Name]. Search for it on Apple or Spotify. It might just save you $1 million."
- The Genius: You're using "old media" to build "new media" authority. You're not asking for a sale; you're offering wisdom. This is a massive power-move.

Step 4: How Do You Convert Viewers to Phone Calls? (The "Logical Next Step")
This is the most important part. A "view" is worthless. A call is everything.
You don't get a call by being passive. You get a call by providing an irresistible, low-friction, high-value Call-to-Action (CTA).
- The WEAK CTA: "Thanks for watching. Call me if you need anything." (Never say this.)
- The POWERFUL CTA: (Spoken by you, directly to the camera, at the end of your episode.)
- "I just spent 20 minutes explaining the 3 pitfalls of the San Pedro redevelopment. But the real opportunity is in the two off-market properties I'm tracking that solve all three of those problems.
- If you are a serious investor who wants to see that opportunity, click the link in my description. It goes right to my personal calendar. Book a 15-minute, no-obligation "Deal Analysis" call. Let's see if it's a fit."

This entire plan—the strategy, the content, the multi-channel distribution—probably sounds exhausting.

.
