BOD Looks to Increase Licensing/Education Requirements

Goal Setting
12/30/2008
We all know that the person who knows where they are going is sure to arrive. Yet, I believe less than 5% of all Realtors actually set goals.

12/30/2008
Managers ask their agents to have a business plan, but it is amazing to me that managers don’t have really concrete, easy to see plans for their offices. When I started managing an office, I knew what my company expected of me, but I didn’t have anything that was specific in terms of when and what I was going to do. So, I developed an easy plan that worked really well for me.
