How to Build Instant Trust and Influence in Real Estate | Podcast | Broadcast with René Rodriguez

Why do some people walk into a room and instantly command attention, while others struggle to get noticed?

In this episode of Real Estate Talk TGIF, host Dave Fanale sits down with René Rodriguez, best-selling author of Amplify Your Influence and creator of the AMPLIFII™ course. René has spent nearly three decades studying behavioral neuroscience, helping leaders, sales professionals, and entrepreneurs communicate with impact and authenticity.

If you’ve ever wanted to influence without sounding “salesy,” or you’re tired of feeling nervous before listing appointments or calls, this conversation is your roadmap to powerful, genuine communication.

You’ll learn:
✅ The neuroscience behind trust and how to build it fast
✅ How to replace nervousness with confidence and curiosity
✅ Why “being liked” isn’t influence, it’s about learning to like them first
✅ Simple, repeatable frameworks to connect and convert naturally
✅ How to avoid “commission breath” and sell through service
✅ The formula René uses to amplify your message, presence, and results

Whether you’re a top producer or just getting started, this episode will help you communicate with purpose, build trust quickly, and stand out in any room.

RE Skill Builder’s purpose is to help growing real estate agents grow their business through coaching, training and some hand holding.

This isn’t your daddy’s hand holding though. It’s performance based. It’s important to plan and to actually execute the real estate plan for your business. That’s what we do.

Professional and personal lives can come together in our work. My work in both, tends to be personal. I owned and operated a real estate brokerage for more than 20 years and relish that experience. I believe that life comes as you make it and making the life I live and work today is a product of my years of experiencing people and relationships. Being authentic and true to myself is my daily task. Being the difference in lives, especially the people I work with, is my journey. I love the opportunity to share and help anyone and everyone. Always grateful!
I’ve been in “business” all of my life. I have made a lot of mistakes. The great thing is, is that I know my mistakes and celebrate the failures as I grow into success. I learn. I grow.
I coach real estate agents up to a different level of understanding of what it means to be successful and fulfilled! We work. We work together to achieve great success.
I just want to help people.
