Well… we threw our hat in the ring. 🚀

Workflow Secrets founder Cody Stepp has officially submitted our packet for the 2026 NAR Pitch Battle.

For decades, real estate technology has asked agents to do something that never made much sense to us:

Become software experts just to run their businesses.

Learn the CRM. Build the workflows. Connect the tools. Remember the follow-up. Move the data. Manage the automation. Keep the entire system running.

We think the software should do more of that work; that’s what we built in SAM.

AI-native real estate software that brings contacts, deals, calendar, communication, and automations into one workspace. But, more importantly, SAM understands both what is happening inside the business and what the platform can do about it.

What this means is helping connect Context → Decisions → Actions → Systems.

The agent shares what matters and what they want to accomplish, and then SAM helps build the system that carries it forward.

Mark A. Stepp and I’ve spent years building this alongside real estate professionals; now we use SAM to run our own company, listening closely to our customers, and working toward one question:

What comes after the CRM?

We believe we’ve built the answer in SAM, and now, we get to put that idea in front of NAR Tech & Innovation. 🏁

Wish us luck!

The CRM stored the business.
SAM runs the systems that move it forward.

Your CRM may hold the information, but are you still holding the entire system together?

You remember what the client said.
You decide what changed.
You figure out what needs to happen next.
You update the tasks, messages, dates, reminders, and handoffs.

And when one important detail changes, you become the engine rebuilding the plan.

For more than three decades, Mark A. Stepp has helped shape real estate technology through AdvantageXI, Realvolve, workflow automation, training, and implementation.

SAM is what Mark and Cody Stepp built next, taking decades of work in the real estate technology and CRM space, and building an AI-native Systems Accelerator from the ground up around a connected operating loop:

Context → Decision → Action → System

SAM is designed to understand what is happening in your business, help determine the next right action, prepare or carry the work forward, and connect that action back to an ongoing process, so progress does not disappear as another one-off task. AI with a purpose, not just a task.

You also do not have to throw away everything you have already built to explore what comes next, but you do need to understand the process.

Bring us:
• The system you use today
• One process that still depends too heavily on you
• The information or workflows you are worried about losing

During a one-hour, founder-led Systems Review, Mark or Cody will help you identify what should be preserved, what could be rebuilt, and whether SAM is the right next step for your business.

This is not a canned feature presentation, just a conversation built around how your business actually works, and what it would look like to apply better tools and stronger systems for today's AI-enabled real estate market.

What actually happens when you move your real estate database into a new system?

For many agents and teams, that question is the reason they stay with a CRM that is no longer working for them.

They assume migrating will mean lost contacts, weeks of cleanup, broken processes, or rebuilding the business from scratch.

But the process can be much simpler.

It starts with the data you already have.

Whether that is a database with a few hundred contacts, hundreds of thousands of leads, or information spread across multiple spreadsheets, the first step is getting it exported and ready to move.

From there, SAM uses AI-assisted importing to help identify and map the information in your file.

Once the contacts are inside SAM, you can filter the database, review specific groups of people, update outdated information, and create cleaner, more useful lists.

In some cases, we can also connect directly with the system you are leaving, helping reduce even more of the manual work involved.

And for agents or teams who would rather have help throughout the process, our team offers optional concierge setup and migration support.

We have helped businesses move from systems across the real estate industry, and one thing remains true regardless of the size of the database:

Moving your data is not the finish line.

The goal is to put that information into a system that can actually use it to support personalized communication, stronger follow-up, and automated Routines that keep the business moving.

In this video, Cody Stepp walks through how the migration process works and what you should consider before making the move.

What if you could stop sending clients through disconnected apps, scattered emails, scrolling text threads, and attachments — tying every interaction directly to the system running your business (SAM)?

Here Is the Big Idea:
When clients can find the information they need without waiting for another manual email or update, you can provide a better experience while reducing repetitive communication.

And unlike a standalone landing-page tool, the portal is an exterior-focused asset for clients - connected directly to SAM.

What that means is, your contacts, properties, listings, transactions, documents, and information inside SAM become the source of truth, giving every client one organized place to communicate, understand what is happening, and move forward with you — that's the power of a World Class Client Experience.

Retention is not a newsletter, and an email on the holidays.... It is a relationship building system.

I'd say 80% of agents we talk to say they are focused on getting the next lead...

But the strongest businesses are built by staying valuable to the people who already trusted you. We call this the 'Golden Goose of Real Estate'.

Past clients should not disappear into a database after closing, they should be remembered, because they hold the keys to the proof you are great at what you do!

So, when do we reach out? Here's a few ideas:
A one-year check-in.
A three-year note.
A home anniversary.
A handwritten card.
A helpful resource.
A personal message when it actually matters.

These small moments compound, turning transactions into relationships that start to build up a Repeat/Referral Pipeline.

Once you have this, you stop needing to buy leads, and start turning relationships into referrals. In business, this is often called the 'flywheel' because this effort compounds and grows as you invest more into it.

The key is building a system that remembers for you, because lord knows we don't have enough space on our Cal to keep track of all that manually. But with a system, you can show up personally when the moment arrives.

That is what real retention looks like, and that is one of the things we share how to build into your business, today, inside this training!

In Real Estate - speed matters. Speed to lead, response, when a lead asks about a property, a client has a question, or someone is ready to schedule, momentum is fragile.

Delay creates doubt that you can help, and despite the fact that you are probably juggling 10000 tasks, client needs, and questions, THIS question, to them, is the most important.

So, a fast, helpful response builds confidence, but in a world of AI chatbots, and Agents sending answers quick, and getting the details wrong quicker - fast does not have to mean careless.

The future of client communication is AI-assisted, real estate agent-approved, and context-aware of who you are chatting with, and what you are chatting about.

So what does this look like? Well in an AI-Native CRM like SAM:
The system helps draft the response.
The agent reviews it.
The message stays on-brand.
The client gets help quickly.

See how AI was never trying to replace the relationship? That is what we beleive is the future!

It is protecting the relationship from unnecessary delay, while offering an assist so you look like the star.

Right now, the best agents are not trying to let AI “take over,” they are not hiring consultants to create 'AI-Agent workflows' to do their job for them, and they are not falling for the Chatbot and AI-Caller hype....

They are using AI to remove friction from their processes, so THEY can serve people faster and better.

Growing up, I was a Lego Kid. Just like Mark before me.... And we had LOTS of Lego. (Kind of the best childhood if you ask me)

So, growing up around Lego, the idea of connected parts that are all designed to be widely reusable, has always made sense to me....

But you know what doesn't make sense? Your newsletter being rebuilt from scratch every month.

And really, neither should your buyer updates, seller updates, lead nurture emails, or past client touches...

So, in the name of Lego, one of the fastest ways to create consistency is to think in reusable blocks.

Header.
Article.
Highlight.
Call to action.
Footer.

Build once, reuse often, refine and improve over time.

This is how agents move from “I need to write another email” to “I have a communication system.”

That is a massive shift, because the goal is not to become a full-time content creator. (Not even I, as a Marketer, want that job...)

The goal is to have reusable, on-brand communication assets that help you stay visible, useful, and consistent.

That’s exactly the kind of practical implementation we covered in the AI Tools & Automations training.
