Looking for some 2026 Resolutions? We got ya covered ...

Business Resolutions 

1. Commit to Strategy Before Tactics

In 2026, resolve to stop chasing shiny tools and start with a clear strategy.
Every campaign, platform, and investment should tie directly to defined business goals—not just activity.

This is where Pickup shines: strategy first, execution second.

2. Build Systems That Work Without You

If your business falls apart when you step away, that’s not growth—it’s fragility.

Resolve to:

  • Document processes

  • Automate follow-ups and reporting

  • Reduce manual work

So your business scales without burning you out.

3. Treat Marketing Like an Asset, Not an Expense

Marketing shouldn’t be a guessing game.

In 2026:

  • Track ROI

  • Review performance quarterly

  • Double down on what works

A smart marketing system compounds—just like a good investment.

4. Modernize Your Technology Stack (Without Overcomplicating It)

More tools ≠ better results.

Resolve to:

  • Simplify your tech stack

  • Integrate systems that talk to each other

  • Use data to make better decisions

Efficiency is the new competitive advantage.

5. Real Estate Brokers: Build a Brokerage That Attracts, Retains, and Scales

For brokerage leaders, 2026 is about operating like a modern business—not just a sales floor 

Resolve to:

  • Improve agent communication and transparency

  • Use technology to support agents

  • Build systems that help agents succeed and stay

The future brokerage wins on experience, clarity, and leadership—not just better (aka, lower to the Brokerage) splits.

 

Personal Resolutions 

1. Protect Your Time Like It’s Revenue

Your calendar reflects your priorities.

In 2026:

  • Say no more often

  • Block time for thinking and planning

  • Eliminate low-value work

Time reclaimed is growth unlocked.

2. Stop Doing Work You Shouldn’t Be Doing

If you’re still doing tasks that could be delegated, automated, or outsourced—you’re limiting your impact.

Resolve to:

  • Focus on leadership and vision

  • Let experts handle execution

  • Spend more time on what only you can do

3. Invest in Learning That Moves the Needle

Not all learning is equal.

In 2026:

  • Learn skills tied directly to growth

  • Stay curious about AI, automation, and strategy

  • Skip the noise—focus on practical knowledge

4. Create Space for Clear Thinking

Growth requires clarity, not constant motion.

Resolve to:

  • Step back regularly

  • Review what’s working (and what isn’t)

  • Make intentional decisions—not reactive ones

5. Build a Business That Supports Your Life (Not the Other Way Around)

Success isn’t just revenue—it’s sustainability.

In 2026:

  • Prioritize health, energy, and relationships

  • Design a business that gives you freedom

  • Measure success beyond the bottom line
