From Chef to Top Performing Realtor ●

In this NEW episode of the Get Real Estate podcast, Latane Meade sits down with Taylor Tolbert to break down the mindset, systems, and relentless work ethic behind his rapid rise to a $40M+ producing agent.

Taylor’s story is anything but overnight success. From door-to-door insurance sales to navigating zero income in his first months as an agent, he shares the unfiltered reality of what it takes to build a real estate business from the ground up. No safety net, no shortcuts, just consistency, grit, and showing up every single day.

The conversation dives into what actually drives long-term success: building a referral-based business, staying top of mind with clients, and creating simple but powerful systems that compound over time. Taylor breaks down his weekly email strategy, client gifting approach, and how he turns relationships into repeat business year after year.

Plus, he shares strong opinions on what doesn’t work including overpriced lead sources, cold calling, and chasing the wrong opportunities and what agents should be focusing on instead if they want real traction. Whether you’re a new agent trying to survive year one or a seasoned pro looking to scale smarter, this episode is a reality check on what it actually takes to win in this business.
