Kristal wrote a post about being an ambassador for your area and your profession. It really got my wheels turning. So thank you KK!
I love my community….. Birmingham Michigan is just a wonderful place to live. I’m very enthusiastic about my city when helping people decide where they want to live. Hopefully all of us Realtors are knowledgeable about the cities we sell in.
What really excites me is the concept of being an “ambassador” for other Realtors. I call it being a cheerleader. I’d like to be considered as a role model. Am I? Who knows… But I do strive to be a role model. I specifically like new agents. Full of wonder and excitement, new agents are eager to make their mark on the real estate world. At my office, typically the new agents tend to be younger individuals. I’m 33 and relate very well with the newbie agents. I’ve bonded with a few new agents in my day. I love to be available for questions. I love to be the cheerleader!
Being a “cheerleader” is not for everyone. Some of us may like to “fly solo”. Some of us may not have the patience it takes to mentor a new agent.
For me the reward is twofold.
First is the friendship that ensues. I love making new friends. As if you haven’t gathered that after my 4 weeks of posts on The Network.
The second is the accountability. I like being accountable to people. I like to know that people are watching me, its very encouraging to me. I’m always up for the challenge. I ultimately end up being the real winner; I always learn so much from others.
The lesson I’m trying to teach….
Give as much of yourself to others as you can. BE A CHEERLEADER! You’ll get more back than you could ever hope for!
