Hi Everyone!
As most of you know, I spend a lot of time writing on Activerain about how to help expand your business and your personal life through The eHomes Realty Network. My goal is to touch as many people as possible and help them with whatever is needed. Most of my teachings around the country have to do with lead conversion and lead capture. Of course when I get to my classes and seminars I spend more time on how to be a great Realtor and how to build your business before I spend any time on lead conversion. In the end, no matter what I teach, it won't matter if you don't have the desire and the goal of being successful. I have learned this past year that I can only spend time helping Agents and Brokers who actually want to be successful. I have spent a lot of time and money on those who want it, but are not really willing to work for it. It was a big awakening for me this past year but also a huge break through.
There are so many of you out there that need help with your business which is why I chose to open The eHomes Realty Network versus Franchising my company which was my original plan. I spent a ton of money being set up to franchise and am licensed to do so in Florida at this time. Our model is very strong and successful. During this down turn, we have grown by at least 25% each year and has made us the Number 1 Buyers Agency in Brevard County two years running. So why am I not franchising? I couldn't help the amount of people I wanted to help by franchising...but with my Network I could help the masses! It's a ton of money to start a franchise but not to join the Network.
My wife and I were talking about the Network and what my goals are in helping people. I have gone back in forth on pricing. Right now we charge $40 a month. I was trying to make it accessible to basically anyone that wanted my help. After all, I spent $500k just learning what I learned the past 8 years. Almost all my members are following my systems and have started or are doing well with them. That's a great thing. I know what I teach is easily worth what most coaches charge, around $1,000 a month. In fact, I talked with a coach who charges twice that amount for his clients and he admitted that he didn't even know anything about the Internet. I'm not sure how you can coach in Real Estate with no knowledge of the biggest thing in Real Estate in the past 10 years.
With all that said, I'm looking for some feedback on what you would look for in a Coach. If you could answer this, either on here or by emailing me at mitch@mitchrealty.com, I would appreciate it. You can be sure that I'm not going to contact you about joining my Network. It's not my style and if you have read anything I write, you know that about me. Please believe that I am 100% sincere when I say I am just looking to learn from what I consider the smartest Realtors in the business, the members of Activerain. If you could design your own coach from scratch, what would his or best qualities be? What would you feel is the most important aspect of your business you don't feel strong in? What can I do to help you become all you can be? Any answers would be very much appreciated. To show my appreciation, I will offer a free year membership, a $480 value, for the person who shares the most with me. For this person, I guarantee that your numbers will increase tremendously by following just a few of my tons of tips and concepts. I look forward to helping you! Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
