Can the principles of baseball offer a blueprint for success in real estate? How can embracing failure, focusing on fundamentals, and leveraging one's strengths lead to a home run in real estate?


In this thought-provoking episode, we dive into the intriguing parallels between baseball and real estate. Our guest, Jake Dixon, shares his insights on the importance of embracing failure, mastering the fundamentals, playing to one's strengths, and adopting a mindset of resilience and consistency in the real estate industry. Drawing from his experience in baseball, Jake offers valuable lessons for real estate agents, emphasizing the need for perseverance, strategic thinking, and personal growth.

Jake, Founder and CEO of The Locker Room Real Estate Coaching, is renowned for revolutionizing real estate coaching since 2016. A former top productivity coach, he has been recognized as one of the top real estate coaches by Agent Fire in 2021 and by Coach Foundation in 2022. With a background in professional baseball, Jake infuses his sports experience into his coaching philosophy, focusing on growth and skill development for agents, especially those managing fewer than 24 homes annually.

Beyond his primary role, Jake is a graduate of the University of North Florida, Co-Founder of the TLR Leadership & Coaching Academy, and Founder of The Champion's Network. His ethos, “Real estate is a contact sport, it's time to get your jersey dirty," reflects his hands-on, energetic approach to real estate training and leadership.
