Ideas Worth Working For

6 06 2008

“And what makes people work is an idea worth working for, along with a clear understanding of what needs to be done.” -Michael Gerber

The above statement brings some questions to mind for me,
 
1. Do you have the right ideas in your company?
2. Do you have the a clear understanding as a LEADER in your company of what needs to be done?
3. Do your agent partners know your ideas?
4. As LEADERSHIP, are you communicating your ideas effectively and systematically?
5. Do your agent partners have a clear understanding of what needs to be done to succeed in this shifting market?
6. Are you asking for your agent partners cooperation or their collaboration? Which one is more empowering, engaging?
7. What are you waiting for to be your best?

What kind of culture do you have in your real estate company?

Is it fun?

Is it professional?

If it was me, I would lean to the side of fun when you are not sure what direction to lean.

This has nothing to do with business models. This has nothing to do with franchise or independent. This is about retention of your real estate agents. Recruiting real estate agents into your real estate company is important and retention of your real estate agents is even more important. It does no good if you recruit two experienced agents in one month and that same month you lose two productive agents.

The four styles of real estate company’s:

  1. Real estate company doesn’t care about their agents, doesn’t provide training, coaching and support
  2. Real estate company doesn’t care about their agents, does provide training, coaching and support
  3. Real estate company does care about their agents, doesn’t provide training, coaching and support
  4. Real estate company does care about their agents, does provide training, coaching and support

Which real estate company are you? How can you prove it?
