Artemis Team · Recruiting Intelligence
You don't start at zero.
You plug into a machine.
Most agents spend years building a pipeline. Our agents inherit one on day one — a lead engine that generated ~3,100 fresh leads last year, nearly 2,900 of them from Zillow and Realtor.com, feeding a team that closed 426 deals and $110M.

Where the leads come from
Two of the largest lead portals in real estate — pointed at our agents.
We pay for premium placement on Zillow and Realtor.com so our agents don't have to. In the last twelve months that produced nearly 2,900 premium portal leads — buyers and sellers an individual agent simply cannot generate alone.

~3,100 leads the company actively generated in 12 months — and 93% of them came from Zillow + Realtor.com. (Imported sphere and database contacts are deliberately excluded — we only count demand the team created.)
Where the closings come from
Company leads close real deals — not someday, now.
Of the team deals we source-tag, 42% trace directly to company-generated leads — at least 106 closings in the last twelve months, led by Zillow and Realtor.com. Only 1 in 10 deals is unattributed.

You vs. the house
You never compete with your broker for the best deals.
On a lot of teams, the best leads quietly find their way to the top. Here it's the opposite — the leads flow to you, and every deal closes under your name.
0
company-generated leads kept by the broker or team leadership in the last 12 months.
Every company lead goes to an agent — and Fred gives away most of his personal sphere on top of that. The one or two deals a year he handles himself are only when a client's confidentiality calls for his direct attention, or to help an agent get a deal across the line.
You're the billboard agent.Your name on the sign, the contract, and the five-star review — not the team's.
You build your brand.Every closing compounds your reputation and your referral base.
You own your business.The clients, the sphere, the repeat business are yours to keep — for good.
The engine is accelerating
Closings have doubled in two years.
This isn't a plateau you're joining late. Total team closings per year:
What this means for you
The deal lift — four ways the engine pays off.
1
Fast-start, even with no sphere
New agents elsewhere close 0–3 deals in year one — many never start. Here you get a real allocation from a flow of ~240 premium portal leads a month. Conversations in week one, not month twelve.
Pipeline on day one
2
A production spike for veterans
Already closing off your own book? The portal flow is purely additive — company-generated deals stacked on top of the business you already do. Nothing you give up; everything you gain.
Incremental, not replacement
3
Deals that aren't your sphere
At least 106 of last year's closings came straight from company-bought leads — 42% of every deal we source-tag. Real money that exists only because the company spends on lead-gen.

It builds your future sphere
Today's repeat-and-referral deals were yesterday's leads. The engine doesn't just feed this year — it compounds into the sphere that pays you for the next decade.
An annuity, not a rental
The part most teams never tell you
Your "sphere" deals started as our leads.
Last year, more than 110 closings were logged as sphere, repeat, or referral — the biggest bucket after company lead-gen. It's tempting to call those "organic." They aren't.
Those clients had to come from somewhere. Year after year, the team feeds thousands of fresh leads into the pipeline — and the ones who don't buy this quarter become the repeat-and-referral business you close years from now.
So the engine works twice: it closes deals now, and it manufactures the sphere you'll be living on five years from now. Most agents build that reservoir by hand. Here, it fills for you every single day.

Your Unfair Advantage
Zillow scores you in secret.
Here, you see the scorecard.
Pickup rate. Predicted conversion rate. CSAT. Loan-officer contact rate. Zillow tracks all of it — and uses it to decide how many leads you get and how good they are. Most agents on most teams have no idea what any of those numbers are.
Zillow runs on a three-tier rating system: HIGH, FAIR, or LOW. HIGH agents get the best buyers and the most active connections. LOW agents get choked to a handful per month until they dig out. The algorithm decides who goes where — quietly, without telling you.
Most teams never mention it. Your rating slips, your lead quality drops, and you assume the leads just got worse. They didn't. Your score did.
Every week, every agent here gets a private metric report — their actual numbers, their current Zillow rating, and a specific action plan based on exactly what the data says to fix. Not a group email. Not a vague "work your leads harder." Your numbers. Your gap. Your four actions for the week.
The lever most Zillow agents never hear about: your loan-officer contact rate. Getting your transferred leads connected to a Zillow Home Loans officer is one of the biggest single drivers of your overall rating. Teams that know this and coach to it win. We're one of them.
