How are you doing compared to the other agents? What's your target?

Feeling a little blue lately.

..although I have  fairly good production, I feel like I still have a way to go.

 

So I checked our MLS to see how the others were doing.  

 

I was fascinated with what I found in terms of sales volume from January 2103 to August 2013 (and the month isn't over yet)

  • There are 9,157 agents (!) on the our local MLS roster
  • Total sales amounted to 41,873 transactions
  • Totals sales volume is worth $10,632,978,782
  • The highest number of sales by an in-area agent/team is 102 transactions worth $82,429,682. 
  • The lowest number of sales is 1 sale, worth $795. 

The information made me feel both good and bad

Bad because I need to crank up my sales -- but hey, the year isn't over yet

Good because I am doing a heck of a lot better than 85% of the agents.

 

Knowing this is filling me with new resolve...I am on a quest to get my mojo back. 

So....how about you? How are you doing compared to the other agents in your area? When was the last time you checked your numbers?

 

And...this should apply to you, regardless of your industry.

Good Morning Pacita, checking your progress is a good push to get you back on track.  Is there anything I can do to help?

If you're in the top 15% of agents in your area, that's amazing.  Keep it up.

Kathy -- thanks....slowly but surely getting in the groove...

Chris Ann --- you know what they say, we are our own worst critics. I am used to having greater volume....but the year isn't over yet. I have time to get back on the horse.
