195: MULTI 8 Figure SEO in 2025 and Beyond w/Andy Kolodgie – 8FE

Is SEO really dead… or are you just doing it wrong? Andy Kolodgie has already built a multi–eight-figure business by mastering SEO in a space most people think is too competitive: real estate. And he’s only 29! Andy started out wholesaling but quickly realized it wasn’t his game. With a background as a Navy software developer, he shifted gears and leaned into his strength – building systems that drive motivated seller leads online. That shift led to Property Leads, which now helps real estate investors scale through SEO. In this episode, Andy explains why SEO for real estate is far less crowded than people think, how Google treats housing searches differently than other industries, why he refuses to scale anything that isn’t sustainable, how he measures lead quality, and what are the red flags he’s learned to spot in partnerships. Have you written off SEO as too crowded… or maybe too old-school? Andy’s story will definitely make you rethink that. Tune in and see why SEO might just be the biggest untapped growth channel left.  — This episode is part of the 8FE (8-figure entrepreneur) series, where we talk to entrepreneurs who have already passed the million-dollar mark.  — Key Takeaways: 00:00:00 Intro 00:01:44 Why real estate SEO isn’t as saturated as you think  00:06:24 Real estate keywords confuse Google’s local vs national intent 00:11:50 The three SEO pillars 00:16:29 AI is killing click volume, but SEO still drives deals 00:21:26 Moving from deals to data 00:34:27 Warm transfers increase close rates and trust with clients 00:42:11 How to allocate time and resources 00:45:20 Ignoring early red flags leads to poor business outcomes 00:54:01 The role of ego in business 01:03:36 When people show you who they are, believe them 01:07:13 Advice for first-time entrepreneurs 01:09:29 How to connect with Andy — Additional Resources: 🔹 Property Leads: https://www.propertyleads.com/andy-kolodgie/  🔹 Andy on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andrewkolodgie/?hl=en  🔹 Andy on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/andykolodgie/   🔹 Andy on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andy-kolodgie/  — ➡️ Learn more at: https://beyondamillion.com/ ➡️ Watch full episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5hbIUyUb68J3nhHSAGDrmUxX4vgXQ4b8 ➡️ Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Beyondamillion?sub_confirmation=1 — Let's Connect: 🔹 IG: https://www.instagram.com/bradweimert 🔹 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beyondamil 🔹Twitter: https://twitter.com/BradWeimert 🔹 FB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089061999787 --  Beyond A Million is a business podcast that reveals the scaling secrets of 8, 9, and 10-figure entrepreneurs.
