That's what an agent said to me last week. Calling me once again for advice on a deal. I hear some version of this daily now, but here's the thing: that's not the real problem. What that agent is actually saying is, "I wish somebody had taught me the business." Because let's face it, nobody did. You got a license, a desk, and a pat on the back. Then they said, "Now go work your sphere."

Let's change that today.

Just Ask Cort gives you mentorship on demand from an agent who actually does the volume he says he does, in today's market. Using the exact referral/repeat sales method that’s helped all of my brand new and long-term agents build their business without shouting into the void on social media or wasting years on trial and error. And just so you know I am not some random guy on the internet making big claims, here's a snapshot of my Zillow profile to date: 

I firmly believe that any agent is capable of building a referral-based business that keeps them fed, even if their lead source dried up tomorrow.

And since nobody else is going to show you how it's done, I will.

WEEKLY LIVE COACHING CALLS

You will get direct access to Cort during weekly live coaching calls where you can bring your real questions about contracts, negotiations, client situations, follow-up, and everything in between.

Come join the Just Ask Cort Community

You'll be invited to our exclusive community where you’re surrounded by agents who are working toward the same goal: building a strong, sustainable referral business without cold calling, chasing leads, or constantly wondering what to do next.

With us, you will:
• Get help from Cort or other like-minded agents when you’re unsure what to say or do
• Learn from other agents what works for them using the same system
• Celebrate wins with people who understand what it takes to build a real estate business
• Ask questions and learn without feeling judged

THE REFERRAL METHOD COURSE

Inside the membership, you’ll get access to The Referral Method Course. I designed this to take any agent from relying on paid lead-gen and hoping for a referral, to being an agent that won't need to pay for a lead again

You’ll learn how to get clients, structuring their entire transaction experience, and turn one closed deal into referrals that will have you doing deals with your clients' grandchildren, without relying on social media or cold calling.

It’s designed to show you exactly how to:
• Present and close with absolute confidence
• Curate a client experience people talk about
• Retaining your clients long-term
• Snowballing one deal into many
• Build a business that feels steady, reliable, and doesn't reset to zero every month.

Let's talk about the price, and let me do the math the way you would as an agent. One referred client costs you nothing. No Zillow fees, no lead program, no ad spend. And yet they show up trusting you, because someone they trust sent them. Most agents I know pay more per lead than this membership costs per month. And you know that a lead is not a closing...

So here's the price and why it's low right now: the system is proven. You've seen the numbers up top. The membership is new, and I want my first members to help me shape it. As a Founding member, you lock in $40 off your membership, per month, for life. Even through the inevitable price increase. There are only 20 of those spots, because I personally answer every question on every call. I want to know your name, your market, and your deals. I can't do that with 300 people. So when the spots are gone, the price is going up for good.

Today, your price is:

Meet Cort

I started my first real sales job in 1983 selling manufactured homes in St. Charles, Missouri. Early on, I stumbled onto a way of interacting with customers that helped them feel relaxed instead of guarded, and that changed everything for me. It led me to study human nature in the sales process and develop a system that creates referral and repeat business naturally. My clients never feel pressured, and the sale tends to happen in a way that feels easy and genuine.

 For over 40 years, I’ve built my business without prospecting, cold calling, door knocking, networking, or relying on social media. My business has come almost entirely from referrals and repeat clients. My phone rings, and I answer it.  

I’ve been married to my wife, LaDonna, for over 30 years. We have four grown children, three grandchildren, two horses, four barn cats, two African Grey birds, and Libby the dog. Life is full, and I’m grateful for it.  

I was able to semi-retire in 2007 after successfully exiting my career in the manufactured housing business. But when the economy collapsed in 2008, I was hit hard financially and had to come out of early retirement. As I got back into real estate investing, I found myself constantly frustrated by dealing with agents who did not know how to truly serve people well. That frustration led me to get my real estate license in 2013.  

Using the same principles I had developed in my first career, I did $10 million in volume my first year and have averaged nearly 100 transactions a year for more than 13 years.  

Over time, I realized something important. Most agents do not fail because they are bad at real estate. They fail because no one taught them how to conduct business in a way that creates trust, referrals, and repeat clients. Too many agents focus only on getting the transaction done, and even when they close deals, those deals often end with no lasting relationship and no future business. It is not because they are careless. It is because they were never shown a better way.  

That is why I created Just Ask Cort. This membership is built on decades of real-world experience, a deep understanding of human nature, and plenty of mistakes I have already made so you do not have to make them yourself. My goal is to help realtors build a business rooted in referrals, repeat clients, and relationships that last.  

If you want a business that feels more natural, more sustainable, and more rewarding, you are in the right place.
