Generate your own.
Or have it handed to you.
There are two ways to run your business at Circle, and they’re built for different agents. One hands you leverage: staff, tools, coaching, and a low cap on a book that stays 100% yours. The other hands you the leads themselves, inside a full team engine powered by Zillow Preferred. Pick the door that matches how you work.
The independent agent.
We hand you a business, not a desk.
For the agent who generates their own business and wants leverage, low cost, and culture, without splitting their book with a team.
- Your business stays 100% yours. No team split, ever.
- A low $16,000 cap and about $200 a month all-in, E&O included.
- Virtual assistants and a full marketing team carrying the busywork.
- Database and sphere-of-influence build-out help, so the people who already know you become the pipeline.
- Productivity coaching and accountability classes, including script practice with Scott and Ingrid three mornings a week.
- Follow Up Boss CRM with built-in automation and a full training platform.
- An agent-led Leadership Council and room to grow into Circle’s Luxury and Commercial divisions.
- One of the fastest-growing independent brokerages in Long Beach.
The team, powered by Zillow Preferred.
The leads are handed to you.
For the full-time agent who wants a proven lead source and a complete team engine, and is ready to run at that pace.

Axiom is a team model, so team splits apply. We walk through the exact numbers at the interview.
| Path 1 · Independent | Path 2 · Axiom Partners | |
|---|---|---|
| Where leads come from | You generate them, with sphere build-out help and CRM automation behind you | Zillow Preferred buyer and seller leads, provided |
| Brokerage cap | $16,000 | $8,000 |
| Team split | None. Your book stays 100% yours | Yes. Team model; exact numbers at the interview |
| The engine behind you | Virtual assistants, marketing team, coaching, CRM | Team leader, ISAs, marketing, listing coordinator, coaching; Scott co-lists and co-sells |
| Built for | The agent who generates their own business | The full-time agent who wants a proven lead source |
Same brokerage of record either way. Both doors open with the same conversation.
A one-question test.
Where should your next closing come from?
Plenty of agents start on one path and grow into the other; that conversation is exactly what the interview is for.
Follow-up is a system here, not a resolution.
Most leads don’t die at the first call. They die in the follow-up nobody did. Circle treats follow-up as infrastructure: your database gets built out on purpose, your CRM automations keep it warm, and the coaching room holds you to working it.
- CRM with built-in automation, so your inquiries and past clients hear from you on a schedule, not when you remember.
- Script practice three mornings a week means the conversation is drilled before the phone rings.
- On Axiom, a full ISA pod works conversations across the team’s pipeline.
Pipeline reviews happen here, not over a ticket system.
One conversation covers both paths.
Bring your production and how you like to work. You’ll leave knowing which path fits, what the numbers look like on paper, and what your first 90 days would hold. Confidential either way.
