Well, this is the first time in 12 years that I’ve been faced with such a major dilemma!

 

Last weekend the weather was great, the sun was shining and for the first time in twelve years, I had no boat. I know for a lot of people this probably does not mean much, but  to me it is a bit of an issue. I sold my fifty foot Yacht at the end of last year. I did however manage to keep my Sea Doo’s, although they are harder to sleep on. Anyway, I really felt this weird feeling because Karen and I spend the summers on it.

So why did I sell it? Well, we had it for a while and we needed a change. Our intention was to buy a bigger one, but now we are thinking a cottage and smaller boat might be better .I know such big decisions! Plus we are thinking of building a new house, maybe buying in Florida for the winter and on and on. So, as you can see, selling my boat has caused major issues. We will figure it out though.

 

What does all this matter to you? Probably nothing. So why am I writing this? I think there are a couple of lessons learned here.

1) Change is always hard even if you think you have it mastered.

2) Selling the boat is actually going to cause me to grow again because I am out of my regular routine.

 
 
Have a Great Week!

Team Building - Elements of Change
In the business of real estate, it's sometimes hard to get individual agents to feel like, or participate as a team member. As a team leader, how to get your agents to think with and act with a team mentality is not always cut and dry. So how do you develop a team from the group of agents you already have? Better yet, how do you get these individuals to do what you need and want them to do in order for your business - or team to be successful?

Identifying the Goal
More sales is a very general goal, yet one we see alot! We'll use that as our premise. So we need to develop Clarity of the goal, how much $$ do we want to increase by, how many sales does that relate too? Are they buyer sales or listing sales? The clearer you make the Goal the better, of course writing it down and going through the next steps to ensure implementation are essential.

Creating a Drip Campaign
Thank you all for your support and interest in the Drip Campaign topic. Just to recap: A Drip Campaign is branded marketing to prospects that you have made contact with and wish to do business with. The prospects should be Present/Future, buyers and sellers that you have qualified to be motivated and have a need to fulfill.
