  • 432 Law of the Lid: How to Increase Your Real Estate Referrals with Events with Michael J Maher and Jackie Little
    Mar 24 2026
    Learn how to generate more real estate referrals using client events and referral marketing strategies with Host Michael J. Maher and Real Estate Agent Jackie Little.


    Title: Law of the Lid: How to Increase Your Real Estate Referrals with Events


    Host: Michael J. Maher


    Guest: Jackie Little


    Description: Want to generate more real estate referrals using client events? In this episode, Michael J. Maher sits down with Realtor Jackie Little to discuss how implementing the Event Mastery system helped her break through a plateau and turn events into a true referral-generating machine.


    For years, Jackie hosted popular events that brought in around 100 people each time—but she realized she had hit her "lid." After joining Event Mastery VIP Edition, she committed to following the system exactly as designed. The result? A transformation in how she plans events, builds sponsor relationships, partners with charities, and—most importantly—generates referrals.


    Jackie shares how shifting her mindset around sponsorships turned events from a $15,000 annual expense into a fully funded—and even profitable—business strategy. She also reveals how a simple neighborhood event recently produced six real estate referrals from just twenty attendees and helped her team triple their closings this quarter compared to last year.


    Along the way, Jackie also opens up about starting a mental health foundation in memory of her late husband, proving that generosity and impact can grow alongside business success.


    If you've ever wondered how to raise the "lid" on your real estate referral business, this episode will show you exactly what's possible when you implement a proven system.

    Title: They Were SHOCKED this Simple Strategy Generated Referrals



    Host: Michael J. Maher


    Guest: Jake Yencarelli and Jennifer Myers


    Description: What happens when two experienced real estate professionals decide to stop guessing how to run events and start following a proven system? In this episode of the Referrals Podcast, Michael J. Maher sits down with Keller Williams leaders Jake Yencarelli and Jennifer Myers to unpack their experience implementing Event Mastery VIP Edition for the first time. What started with some skepticism quickly turned into powerful results: highly attended events, strong sponsor partnerships, charitable impact, and a surge of referrals.


    Jake hosted a "Clothes for Kids" charity event that rallied the community to donate essential items for children in need, while Jennifer organized a strategic happy hour that generated sponsor support, meaningful connections, and referrals both in and out of her network.


    Together, they reveal the behind-the-scenes strategies that made their events so successful—from involving VIPs in the planning process to mastering confirmation touches, sponsorships, and powerful follow-up systems.


    If you've ever wondered whether hosting events can truly generate referrals and strengthen relationships, this episode delivers real-world proof—and practical insights you can implement immediately.

Here’s what I love about the Referrals Podcast: it’s real people sharing real stories of getting real referrals. No lies, no deceit or conceit, no tricks, just people who are doing big things with love, generosity, and appreciation. Love that we at REFERCO have a way to give our clients a voice in the marketplace and shine a spotlight on whose success really matters. Hope you enjoy the podcast as much as I do hosting it and I invite YOU to set a goal to be interviewed and spotlighted on Referrals Podcast.
