Hmmm....I wasn't very good at writing in high school or college and 20 years later I am not much better! The truth be known....I would rather be outside in 10 degrees showing homes to a client than sitting in my home office working on this blog. Having said that....if we are going to succeed we have to step it up and doing a few things that make us feel uncomfortable. I would still rather freeze in a vacant foreclosure.
Recently, my husband and I began building a real estate team to help grow our real estate business. January 1, 2010 was the official launch of "The Kinsey Group". Gary Keller makes it a point to say regularly to hire talent and that your first and most important hire will be your assistant; so, that is where we started. I placed a Craig List Ad and received over 65 resumes in one day! I called the best three and actually hired Heather, my first interview before I even talked to the other two. It didn't take me long to know that she was the right one for the job; organized, relaxed, disciplined and most importantly, willing to put up with my lack of all of the above. First hire - done! It didn't take her long to get us organized and get the systems in place, while I was able to continue with everyday business. Wow...what a relief....stay tuned for the 2nd hire.
