Facing Imposter Syndrome? Most Real Estate Agents Do (and They Need This Free Tool!)
Imagine receiving an email that throws you for a loop.
That's exactly what happened to me recently.
A seemingly simple question, "What was your past production level and GCI (Gross Commission Income)?" triggered a wave of self-doubt.
GCI, or Gross Commission Income, is the total amount of money a real estate agent earns from commissions on property sales.
It's a key metric for measuring an agent's performance and financial success.
Knowing your GCI is crucial for several reasons:
Track Progress: See if your income is growing over time.
Set Goals: Establish realistic targets for your business.
Negotiate Better: Use data when discussing commission rates with brokers or clients.
Unfortunately, many real estate agents, myself included, haven't tracked their GCI or other key metrics for a long time.
This can lead to disorganization, inconsistent income, and a feeling of being lost at sea.
The real estate industry can be feast or famine.

Overcoming Insecurity and Finding Validation
To overcome the insecurity triggered by the email, I reflected on my 23 years in the real estate industry and created a list of my accomplishments. I then contacted my best friend for her perspective on my life's work. She reassured me of what I had already concluded—that my experience and the challenges I'd overcome had equipped me perfectly to help other agents achieve their goals.
Tracking down my past GCI figures was difficult because I hadn't been keeping up with it. This experience resonated deeply. Like many agents, I had been chasing the next opportunity without taking the time to track my progress. This lack of data made it hard to see the bigger picture and fueled feelings of inconsistency.
