The conversation is changing, and most brokerages don't even know it yet...Leads are always the first thing a realtor brings up when they come to KLRE but finding leads isn't the problem... In this episode, Kris reveals what really needs to be the focus and how realtors can have more freedom to do what drives them; relationships, helping people, and unlimited earning potential without sacrificing the things you love! The real question is, what do realtors want? Why are they in real estate? Is it too cold to call and prospect through bad leads? As an agent, if you want to make the best use of your time, you might want to be with a company that sets you up for success and the ability to use your time wisely!Kris reveals the KLRE process and how it allows agents to spend less time dealing with cold leads and more time going to appointments and selling! You can have a bunch of registrations or leads, but what kind of leads are they? Are they qualified leads? Who vetted them?  So do we need more leads, or do we need a better process for the agents? Find out in this episode!
