Most business owners and real estate professionals are grinding for clients, chasing leads, and wondering why deals don't come to them when the real problem is that nobody knows who they are or what they stand for. In this episode of The M.O.R.E. Show, Justin Colby sits down with Dana Flanagan, known as the Authority Architect, a 25-year real estate veteran with hundreds of millions in commercial and global real estate who recruited 70 agents in 90 days, not by cold calling, but by building the kind of authority and credibility that makes people come to you. Dana breaks down her CIA framework, Credibility, Influence, and Authority, how she used social media before most people knew what it was to build an attraction-based business, and why going viral means nothing if you are not visible to the right people.
