Last night as The Franke Team reflected on our victories at the Keller Williams Regional Awards, I wanted to post a blog about the concept of the real estate team.
Historically the real estate industry evolved as individual agents. In fairly recent history, the "team" concept has become more and more popular. We are proud here at The Franke Team to say that Marion was a pioneer in the team concept. Over a decade ago as Marion's business was exploding, she made the wise decision to add a very needed person to help her manage her business. Janice Oliver was the first agent that Marion added.
As the listings and phone call increased, Marion knew that she needed to add her first Buyer's Agent. The rest as they say is history! Today Marion has 7 buyer's agents, 4 listing agents, a full time technology director, and administrative team members. The Franke Team has now grown to 18 members strong.
What makes The Franke Team successful is having a group of individuals all with different strengths and talents working together with one common goal in mind - being the best at what we do! Most of our agents have many designations and there are three brokers on the team! Having team members who are constantly staying on top of their game is what makes our team stand out.
Marion is also very forward thinking and is always assessing and reassessing the way we do business. She has the insight to try new things and is not afraid to change. When the Internet was still a new concept, Marion realized this was the avenue to explore and she was right. The Franke Team Internet presence has truly revolutionized our business.
I am thankful to be on a real estate team and value each and every team member that we have. I believe too that the team concept will become more and more of the standard in our industry. Only time will tell.
