training: Does Your Business Deserve Some Attention? - 04/05/11 04:46 PM
DOES YOUR BUSINESS DESERVE SOME ATTENTION?
Like a garden, your business will flourish only if you seed, feed, and water it. And we believe the best way to do that is to step away from your business for a couple of days to really focus on where you’ve been … and where you want to go.
We also believe your business deserves a commitment to nourish it. Today is the day to commit to spending two days with us to revitalize your business!
We want to see you at our next Safari event. What is Safari? Simply put, it’s a … (0 comments)

training: Just One Thing - 02/25/11 12:41 PM
JUST ONE THING
For many agents, just getting away for a few hours to invest time in their business is hard. What’s even harder is getting away for two entire days. But recently a large group of agents did just that. They took two days away and joined us for the first of our 2011 Safaris.
We asked attendees to really look at their business. We asked them to really look at who they are. We asked them to look at their strengths and weaknesses. We asked them to look back at their production numbers and examine why they weren’t where they want … (1 comments)

training: Out of the Jungle and Into the Light! - 11/19/10 12:21 PM
OUT OF THE JUNGLE AND INTO THE LIGHT!
There’s no doubt that the past 2 years have taken a toll on agents. Some of you are worn and torn, and really tired. Some of you are exhausted. It’s been really tough. It’s been harder than it’s ever, ever been. For some of you, you probably feel like you’ve been totally lost in a deep, deep jungle.
Some of you have lost your confidence. Some of you may have a depleted bank account. More of you have lost your morale. You know what, though? You may have felt completely lost, but you’re actually still here. … (0 comments)

CLUB ZEBRA: AN ALL-INCLUSIVE SOLUTION
After many years of helping our clients to brand themselves, I can safely say that I’ve pretty much seen it all. But there is one problem that I’ve witnessed over and over again—so much so that I’ve finally decided to do something about it.
What’s the problem? Many agents are not getting the ongoing support they need. They come to me for a specific reason—whether it be a marketing makeover, a business analysis, or branding help. When I start working with them, though, I realize that what they need is long-term help via a friendly hand … (0 comments)

training: HOW TO GET REFERRALS – NEVER ASK FOR THEM! - 11/06/08 03:11 PM
HOW TO GET REFERRALS – NEVER ASK FOR THEM!
Many real estate trainers, speakers, and ‘gurus’ preach the same gospel : “If you want referrals, you better ask for them.”
I say just the opposite.
All the gurus that tell you to ask for referrals after every sale are missing one big point. Think about it. How do your potential buyers, sellers and past clients FEEL when you ask for a referral?
It’s an uncomfortable moment. They know you want something from them and it tarnishes the trust you’ve built together. Instead of a confidant, you become a typical salesperson. And … (16 comments)
