Why Does Your eXp Realty Sponsor Choice Matter?
There is no question that eXp Realty is the single most industry disrupting brokerage in the world today. They don’t just call any company the “Amazon of Real Estate”.
But with such a revolutionary model comes a lot of growing pains for the many agents that have foresight to take advantage of this massive opportunity. The eXp Realty business model is unique and never seen before in real estate, but that also means that is is complicated and for agents that unfamiliar with the concept.
That is why your sponsor at eXp Realty should be the agent that you turn to before you are ready to onboard in order to get a full understanding of just how the eXp Realty brokerage model works.

Having a good sponsor who is just a phone call away and takes an active role in your success will impact your real estate business at eXp to a large extent!
Your sponsor at eXp Realty matters because they are your business partners and will be the person that is your main advisor and resource when it comes to getting accustomed to the tools, trainings, assets, systems, and resources at eXp Realty. Now that doesn’t mean that your sponsor will or should know everything there is to know about eXp Realty, it just means that they are knowledgable enough to be able to point you in the right direction when you begin to feel lost and stuck or ever have a question that you need answered.
The final and most important reason why your sponsor at eXp Realty matters is because your sponsor is your personal compass, partner, and advisor when it comes to revenue sharing at eXp Realty.
Who you join at eXp will be your main resource to turn to as far as understanding and building the revenue share component of eXp Realty goes! Your sponsoring eXp agent has a vested interest in partnering with you to build your revenue share group!
If your goal at eXp is to build a large organization through revenue share by attracting fellow agents to join eXp with you then one compelling reason to choose one sponsor over another is how much effort they will help you when it comes to building revenue share and attracting agents.
Agents join eXp for different reasons, but the single most enticing one is the opportunity to build a global organization of agents with eXp Realty’s revenue share program.
If you don’t know what revenue share is, feel free to reach out to us to learn more.
By choosing a great sponsor at eXp Realty, you will not only have someone who will help you build your own revenue share organization with you, but you will also get access to the same tools, systems, and resources that they have and their sponsors have in order to succeed on an elite level. We will go into detail what these tools and systems might consist of later on in this post.
What is a Sponsor at eXp Realty?
Your sponsor at eXp Realty is the eXp agent who influenced you the most to join eXp. Here is a snapshot from the application:
BEFORE you pick your sponsor, keep these important points in mind:
- Your sponsor is not necessarily the eXp agent that talked to you first
- Your sponsor is not some agent you found online but have never talked to
- Your sponsor is not your buddy you know that happens to be at eXp
- Your sponsor is not a local team leader in your area you’ve heard about
Your sponsor is THE eXp agent who was the MOST INFLUENTIAL in your decision to join.
Can it be any of the people I just mentioned? Absolutely!
But who should it be? Your eXp Realty Sponsor SHOULD be the agent that influenced you not by their fame or quickness to jump on the opportunity to be your sponsor, but rather:
Your sponsor at eXp Realty should be the agent that influenced you the most to join by showing you that they make your success a priority.
This is often overlooked, which is why our inboxes are flooded with agents new to eXp asking us for help even though they already have sponsors.
A sponsor’s role should be about building relationships with motivated agents and putting their success first. A sponsor succeeds if and only if YOU succeed and we truly mean that. Feel free to contact us and book a FREE strategy session for more information.
To recap here are just a FEW of the roles that an eXp Realty sponsor is supposed to do for you:
- Show you the unmatched and incredible value of the eXp Realty model
- For new agents, match you up with an awesome local mentor
- Answer any question quickly, or pointing you to the person or resource that will get you the answer you need
- Dedicate time and effort to help you succeed as a real estate agent
- Help you grow your business to any size you desire
- Provide access to mentorship, training, tools, and masterminds from top producers in their sponsoring upline of top eXp Realty agents
- Teach you how to invest in real estate as a cash flow source
- Help you build your own local, national, or international team of agents (if that eventually becomes your desire!)
To clarify, your sponsor IS NOT your assigned eXpand Mentorship program mentor, nor are they your local team lead if you join a team. It just so happens that my sponsor IS my team leader, but that isn’t very common. (If you have questions about these things, just ask us in the chat widget in the bottom right corner!)
What Makes a Great Sponsor?
So now that we have gone over exactly what a sponsor at eXp Realty does and why it is so important for you to choose a a great sponsor you are probably wondering what exactly separates an everyday average sponsor and a great sponsor at eXp Realty.
There are a few things that can separate an average sponsor and a great sponsor. And that ultimately comes down to the value that a sponsor provides. Here are a few questions that you can ask a potential sponsor to determine whether or not they are a great sponsor or not.
- What trainings/tools/systems do you provide on top of the trainings/tools/systems that eXp provides?
- Can you show me some of your tools/trainings/systems so I can see them for myself?
- Who are your sponsors and what value do they provide for their organization that you have access to? Will I also have access to these?
- How many agents do you sponsor currently in your organization?
- How much time per week will you dedicate to helping the agents you sponsor succeed?
- How much time per week will your sponsors dedicate to helping in their organization succeed?
- What trainings/tools/systems/coaching do you or your sponsors provide to help me build my own revenue share organization?
As you can probably see, a great sponsor at eXp Realty is someone who not only provides more value for the agents in their organization, they are someone who comes from a great lineage of sponsors at the company.
More often than not, once you choose your sponsor, you are not only getting the value that they provide for you from the tools and trainings that they have created, you are also getting access to 7 or more of their sponsors and the tools that they offer their organization.
Some discerning factors of a great sponsor are the number of agents they have sponsored to the company and the amount of time they and their team spends on helping their agents succeed each week. Since your sponsor’s main role is to help support you with agent attraction and revenue share, their success in and dedication to revenue share should be a big factor when it comes to them being a great sponsor or not.
Make sure that you ask your potential sponsor at eXp Realty to see the tools and trainings that they have for yourself! A lot of times people over promise and under deliver so make sure to actually see these promises.
Now a lot agents are going to be tempted to choose a sponsor based on their fame in the company as leaders. Now that may be a great choice since they have a proven track record of succeeding in revenue share, remember that you are getting all of the tools and resources that they provide if you are sponsored by an agent in their organization. Also some of these eXp pioneers have become so successful that they have been given executive positions in the company, that means that they will have a lot more responsibilities on their plate and as a result, less time to help you with one on one support.
If you are going to choose a top level executive as your sponsor at eXp Realty, make sure that they are providing support that no one else at the company is providing. For more information, contact us below or send us a message.
So… How Do I Choose a Sponsor at eXp Realty?
Listen, it’s actually pretty simple. Is there an eXp agent out there that you’ve been talking to that has been responsive, helpful, and been adding value? Have they been open about eXp Realty’s model, EVEN IF it may not be the best option for you at this time? Have they been courteous and kind? Then THAT person would clearly be your sponsor.
