The Real Estate Agent’s Ultimate Pivot: How Jay Bruzas Built a Business by Owning the Basics
Aug 21, 2025
There’s a moment in every top producer’s journey when they realize the truth: this game doesn’t reward talent. It rewards consistency. That’s what stood out in our sit-down with Jay Bruzas.
Jay didn’t inherit a pipeline. He didn’t show up in a booming market. He built everything from scratch, and he did it the hard way: cold calls, door knocks, and mastering his scripts until they were second nature.
But what really hit home? His mindset shift.
🔁 From Doubt to Domination
Jay told us, “I was halfway in. And halfway in gets you halfway broke.” That’s the reality. Until you commit fully, the market treats you like a hobbyist. Once Jay went all in, everything changed. Lead gen became a ritual, not a chore. Objections became opportunities. And his business stopped swinging like a yo-yo.
This isn’t about working 80 hours a week. It’s about doing the right things every day with relentless discipline.
🧠 Scripts Set You Free
Jay didn’t just memorize scripts; he internalized them. He said, “Once I stopped worrying about what to say, I could finally focus on how to connect.” That’s the unlock. Scripts aren’t cages; they’re frameworks that free you to be confident, authentic, and powerful in conversation.
We talk about this in REGN all the time. It’s not about being slick. It’s about being ready. And Jay is living proof that skill + repetition = success.
📞 No Lead Left Behind
The other bomb Jay dropped was this: “Most leads are dead because you quit, not because they did.” That’s real. If you’re not following up daily, you’re giving your competition a win they didn’t earn.
Jay’s follow-up system is built on clarity, urgency, and care. He audits his pipeline weekly. He keeps a Top 10 buyer list and contacts them every 48 hours. He doesn’t chase, he invites.
💡 Final Takeaway
Jay’s story is a masterclass in what we teach at REGN: systems, scripts, service. You don’t need more leads; you need more intentional action. The blueprint is there. Are you disciplined enough to follow it?
