Well here I go with my first "true" attempt at blogging thanks to my wonderful friend and agent David Patterson. You can all check out this great Realtor® at www.ThePattersonFiles.info .
When I questioned what I should put in a blog, the big question David asked me was what is it that I want you to know. Unlike many of you I am no longer an agent. I am a Team Leader for Keller Williams Realty in Columbia, South Carolina. My issues are very much like yours and very unlike yours. My job is unlike an agent in that I am to recruit, train and consult. My training and consulting does not only include Keller Williams agents. It is a busy day that I maintain.
My job is like yours in that I have to be completely in tune with what is going on in the market. I have to understand what obstacles are facing my agents not only in the market but in their mindset. The market has shifted and 20% of the agents are doing 80% of the business - are my agents in that 20%? Am I offering them the right training? Have I exposed myself to the right training? Are they lead generating? Are they aware of their conversion rates,? How can I encourage them to get in front of more business, sell more homes and do it quickly? How do I keep them from getting discouraged in the deals that are no longer holding together? How do I make sure they have businesses worth owning? These are questions I ask myself daily.
What I will share in this blog are those thoughts and trials on a weekly basis. I look forward to any comments you would like to make to help give me insight. I always look forward to new ideas and viewpoints. So, I will thank everyone in advance for all of your helpful hints not only in blogging but in how to help grow incredible agents.
