Please Note: Since the recording of this episode, NAR entered into a proposed settlement agreement that would end litigation of claims brought on behalf of home sellers related to broker commissions. To learn more, and to prepare for the practice changes taking effect August 17, 2024, go to facts.realtor.   Welcome to Part 2 of my conversation with Lynn Madison! Today we are talking about different business models. As you refresh your presentation of what you do and what you charge, we want you maybe to consider some other options or, at least, some other parts of the business and we also want you to be aware of the possibility that somebody else might have a different business model; how are you going to be prepared for that? Go back to episode 098 to hear the start of our conversation on clearly communicating your value to your clients. Lynn Madison has received the REBAC Hall of Fame Award, the REBI Distinguished Educator Award, and Educator and REALTOR® of the Year, both from the Illinois Association of REALTORS®. She is also one of the primary authors of the ABR® designation course and we are thrilled to have her back with us again. We will link to the other two episodes where Lynn has been with us, in the show notes.   Welcome back, Lynn Madison, for Episode 2! [2:25] So we just want to talk about maybe some of the different ways people can get paid, maybe some challenges we see, and what we hear from people talking about business models. [2:45] Your business model must be something that is allowed in your state. Your menu of services must not include options that are lower than the minimum services that the license law requires you to give.   [5:05] Competition.REALTOR (now facts.realtor) lists tasks you perform for clients. Are they in your business model? Lynn says your business model is what you deliver but be consistent. She talks about when inconsistency hurt her.   [7:44] If you provide different levels of service, have the client check and sign on a written document what level of services they are choosing, so there is no confusion or anger later. Be very clear about it.   [8:37] Lynn has a pledge of performance. In it, she offers her full level of service to every client. If she offered less service to some, she would need a separate pledge of performance for that level of service.   [10:07] Lynn teaches about six buckets: finding a suitable property, showing property, analyzing the market, writing a reasonable offer, negotiating the offer, and following the transaction through to the closing.   [10:47] People don't like to lose out. When you have a buyer sign a Buyer Representation Contract, you move the buyer from customer-level service to client-level service. Lynn explains what that means by law.   [14:50] You're going to want to have this Buyer Representation Contract signed with a compensation amount in it. You're going to have to figure out how to talk about compensation with your buyers.   [15:33] Stop being afraid of talking about compensation. Explain what it is you do to earn the money you are making. Nobody works for free. [19:34] Study in the last 18 months in your market, how long it took you to find a property for your buyer. Tell your client, in this market, it takes about four to six months to find a house. Would that fit your plans?   [22:54] Follow your state law regarding the contract and protection period. What if they buy something after the contract that you showed them? If the contract period is long, there must be an opt-out.   [26:52] Lynn wants to give her buyers premium-level services but if the buyer finds a house in two weeks instead of six months, that's a good place to offer a menu of services. Also, Monica tells why this podcast episode is not an antitrust violation conversation in the discussion of business models.   [29:27] You can use a free Zoom account to meet with buyers, especially if out of town. Share your screen with them. Tell how they will be notified of new listings in MLS and other features and statistics.   [31:10] Statistics of days a home stays on the market can show the urgency of making a move to buy a home. You can show these electronically or on paper. NAR resources linked below can help.   [32:43] Lynn takes NAR resources and personalizes them for herself to show her clients her pledge of performance of what she will do for them to get them the right property at the right terms to the closing.   [34:40] How Lynn deals with appraisal disagreements.   [35:41] In this hour, Monica and Lynn have shared some of what they teach in the ABR® class. Be sure to take the ABR® designation, with Lynn, online, or locally.   [36:49] “If you've not read the book, Who Moved My Cheese?, get it and read it. If you think about what we're going through, it helps you realize that you've got to change your mindset.”   [37:52] Monica thanks Lynn Madison. She gives us so much great information! What is your takeaway from this conversation? Can you bring some points back to your team or brokerage firm?   [38:05] Please share this podcast with your fellow agents. I am learning all the time and I am talking with some very well-trained and thoughtful educators. They want to help you and the people that they train to make the transition that needs to be made. Please share this as a resource for this time.   [38:31] The Center for REALTOR® Development offers excellent training and you can find live, live virtual, and online courses, designations, and micro-courses. Check out the ABR® offerings and the SRS offerings locally or at Learning.REALTOR. Tweetables:   “Your business model cannot be something that is not allowed in your state. Some states have, for example, Minimum Services. If I have an exclusive agreement with my client, whether it's a listing or a buyer, I must give them a certain level of service.” — Lynn Madison   “I'm at a loss as to understand why a buyer would want to go [without representation]. But part of the problem is we haven't been having these conversations with the buyers.” — Lynn Madison   “You're going to have to figure out how to talk about compensation with your buyers. All of this ties back into your value proposition.” — Lynn Madison   “If you've not read the book, Who Moved My Cheese?, get it and read it.

Welcome back, Friends! Our podcast has received another award from AVA Digital Awards, an international competition that recognizes excellence by creative professionals in the area of digital communication. We received a Gold Award for Podcast and Audio Production!  We have another amazing award-winning guest today! She has been recognized as an amazing instructor, having received the ABR® Hall of Fame Award, the REBI Distinguished Educator Award, REALTOR® of the Year, and Educator of the Year, both from the Illinois Association of REALTORS®. She is one of the primary authors of the ABR® designation course and we are thrilled to have her back with us again. She was with us last year to talk about the changes in the industry and how to prepare for them. We will link to that episode in the show notes. Today, we are going to dig in deeper with Lynn, specifically about ways to show your value to your clients. We must improve our skill in communicating what we do and how valuable our skills are to our clients. We have two episodes this month with Lynn, and I hope you can listen to both of them! They are worth your time!   [3:19] Build your value proposition; if you don't quantify what you're doing, you don't know the value you bring to buyers.   [4:46] You need the client to know what you do for them. It is sometimes harder and more work to get a lower-priced transaction to the closing table. The average buyer doesn't know the value you bring if you haven't explained it to them. [7:39] Lynn notes that “value proposition” is sales language and people don't want to be sold, they want to buy a house. Tell the buyer about the value you bring them, not about your value proposition.   [8:29] A contractor building a house has a standards sheet showing what is included and some optional upgrades. Lynn talks about using a Buyer Representation Agreement. Lynn makes sure the buyer understands the “big bucket” things she does for them.   [11:38] A weekly call with buyers keeps them updated on what you have done for them to help them buy a house. Lynn thinks we all should be doing that.   [13:46] Lynn tells buyers that not all available properties are on the internet and not all properties on the internet are available.   [14:03] If you don't consistently touch base with the buyer, they go out looking with other people. Stay in touch weekly with your buyers!   [16:59] Use your analytical tool in your MLS and communicate to your buyers what the market is doing. Lynn shares a recent example about pricing listings.   [18:34] It's hard for buyers to see we have an inventory shortage when the houses are everywhere. Unfortunately, in many cases, we're not communicating this to our buyers.   [19:24] In your weekly call with your buyer, share data, such as the updated absorption rate. In the market niche you're looking at, what went under contract this week?   [20:03] Lynn shares a story from her travels. Lynn shares more facts about the absorption rate or month's supply of inventory. [24:36] You would have a license law problem and a code of ethics problem if you showed houses to someone in an exclusive contract to purchase with another brokerage company.   [28:16] If something changes along the way, you may need multiple consultations.   [31:23] Sellers are now recording the agent and buyers going through their homes. So we have to be careful what we talk about. This is a relationship business. We build relationships in person.   [33:54] Some websites pull the new listing data in the middle of the night. That puts them almost 24 hours behind the MLSs. This happens in a counseling session.   [34:36] Lynn's last word: “NAR has a website called Competition.realtor.

Having found in real estate the opportunity to pursue her dreams, Kim Knapp sold $6 million in inventory in her first year as a professional agent, which earned her the status of top producer for her company.   However, as talented as Kim was in sales, she had to put in the effort to become the high-achieving businesswoman and leader that she is today. Using the marketing tactic known as farming and seeking for mentorship to learn the ins and outs of the business side of real estate, Kim grew to become one of the most successful realtors in her area.   Today, Kim oversees a half-billion dollar office, is a CRS instructor and speaker, is a major investor with RPAC, and is the founder of REBarCamp One Coast, one of the largest BarCamps in the nation.   Tune in to this episode of Real Estate Excellence to listen to Kim's full story and learn the secrets of her success.   [00:01 - 06:45] Introducing Our Guest Kim Knapp: How to Expand as a Real Estate Agent Kim Knapp has over 20 years of experience in the real estate industry, is a keynote speaker and is highly respected by her peers. Kim organizes an event called a REBar Camp, where real estate professionals with different levels of experience gather to share information and tips about the industry, self-improvement, and how to improve as agents, as well as to lobby and make contacts. The sessions are organized according to the topics that people demand the most, which are found using digital tools. [06:46 - 13:28] Northeast Florida's Top Real Estate Agents Share Their Tips The latest sessions of the bar camp have taken into account the different levels of experience of attendees, with one star representing a newer agent, two stars representing an experienced agent, and three stars representing an experienced agent who has been in the business for five or fewer years. There are also badges for first-time attendees, those who have been in the business for five years or less, and those who have been in the business for more than five years. The REBar Camp facilitated an atmosphere designed to help participants learn and grow.   [13:28 - 20:07] Agents stick with the company she knows Kim has been with the same brokerage for 22 years. There have been times when he's had to make cuts to her listings, but overall she's been happy with the company She's noticed that the market has changed a lot over the years, and he's gotten better at pricing his homes correctly   [20:07 - 26:47] Kim Knapp Shares Tips on How to Collaborate with Others Tracy asks Kim what was it that triggered the change in her life that led to her becoming a successful real estate agent. Kim explains the role that Jackie Leavenworth as played in her life, as an instructor, speaker and mentor. Jackie Leavenworth's teachings made Kim realize that there was still a lot to learn, even if she was already very talented and achieving in her field, which led her to want to focus on her own learning.   [26:48 - 33:16]. How important is it for agents to find what they do best? Agents should find what they're good at and produce as quickly as possible to really accelerate their career It's necessary for survival to find what your personality style is and what resonates with you, and then do it with all your heart For farming to work, agents need to find a field that they're good at and clear it and till it and plant it. It can take a few months for the market to turn around for agents.   [33:16 - 39:51] How to become the real estate agent you want to be You can begin by becoming the mosy knowledgeable real estate agent in a specific neighborhood or area, and the one people go to when they want to buy or sell there. This is an approach known as farming However, before farming a neighborhood, you should be aware of your own skills and what you like and dislike doing.   [39:51 - 46:23] Real Estate Agents Need to be Authentic Social media has helped to create a more authentic connection between agents and their clients, which has helped to build trust. Authenticity is key when establishing relationships with potential customers, and agents should focus on finding commonalities with their clients in order to build trust. Agents should also maintain a culture that is supportive and encouraging of success.   [46:23 - 52:57] Agents sometimes can get in the way of buyers and sellers When it comes to buying or selling a home, it can be an important decision for people, and often times it's an irrational decision. There are some initial steps that you can take to help agents build relationships with buyers and sellers, and to help them navigate through the process. It's important for agents to know people's why, and to be able to take buyers and sellers back to their reasons for making the decision they're making. You always need to be honest and upfront, even if it can cost you a sale, because that's how you build trust.   [52:57 - 59:49] How to avoid buying a house that's uninsurable Kim and Tracy discuss how agents can be more honest with buyers and sellers, and how this can help to create successful deals. Agents should be pro-prelisting inspections, as this helps to ensure that buyers and sellers are aware of potential issues with a property before signing a contract. Time spent on minor repairs can delay the closing process, and agents should be aware of this in order to manage expectations.   [59:50 - 01:06:22] Agents need to continue to educate themselves It is important for agents to continue to educate themselves on various topics so that they can stay ahead of the curve and be more successful in the real estate market. Agents who are constantly learning and expanding their knowledge are more successful than those who have "tapped out" a few years ago. It is important for agents to set expectations with buyers from the beginning so that both sides are comfortable with the transaction.   [01:06:22 - 01:16:57] Rebar Camp: A Must-Attend Event for Real Estate Professionals Kim and her family regularly visit the "Okefenokee" area in Georgia, which they describe as "relaxed and peaceful." They mention that success is more important than who you know or what you know, and that opportunity must be sought out. Kim and Tracy encourage listeners to join their community at tracyhayespodcast.com, where they can learn from others and continue their pursuit of excellence.   Quotes:   “When I began working in real estate I worked really hard and sold 6 million dollars, yet I didn't really know what I was doing. It was baptism by fire and learning by mistake.” -Kim Knapp   “With social media content we can now get so much reach, but don't need to get caught up in how many people are watching your content.

Are you like our client Jessica who was terrified of getting lip injections? In this video join facial esthetic specialist Carl Clarke H.M.S, RPAC as he explains everything you need to know to avoid getting bad results. Social media gives us a false sense of the final result. Images taken right after a procedure does not truly reflect the best of what you can expect. Just walking down the street you can see ridiculously bad results with lip injections! Things like bruising and migration bumps from bad lip injections. We often think of the lips as two pillows, but they are more like columns that create structure from the top, the corners and the bottom. Your natural shape will dictate different styles, our technique and the products we use also determines the end result. Fact: There is no way to know what they will end up looking like UNLESS the injector understands what you want and they are skilled and using the best products for your procedure. Yes, we all expect discomfort and a little bleeding, but bruising and excessive swelling should not happen! How often does bruising happen? How swollen will I look? What can I expect from getting lip injections for the first time? What about the shape of the face? Your lips should look balanced for your unique shape and that is what our Diamond Touch Technique does so beautifully. Watch the video to find out more!

Why does improving the way we look impact us so profoundly?Is it wrong to spend thousands of dollars on clothing and designer goods? Does that make you “Vain”? Some call it a dirty word but the desire to look good no matter what your age comes from a place of pride in oneself. And that begins in having pride in what you look like. Your overall image sends a message, so what is the message you're sending? What can we achieve when we are looking and feeling our optimal best? Our innate attitude in how we judge ourselves and others exists no matter what you decide. Vanity is the benchmark in how we determine and rank ourselves. We are all vain because we instantly feel better when we look our best but holding on to negative comments is what holds us back. Do you like your self image? Do you like your attire? You can upgrade your appearance all the time. Why should how you address aging be any different? Facial lines can make you look angry and upset or too intense or sad. This sends a message that perhaps you don't want to send. Think of what you can achieve when you look and feel your optimal best!

Issues of equality, including fair housing, are often viewed through the prism of the struggle between Blacks and whites. But that vantage point excludes many other people of different backgrounds who may continue to feel invisible. Three REALTORS® who identify with underrepresented minorities—Lorraine Arora, ABR, GRI, Berkshire Hathaway Home Services in Alexandria, Va.; Stephen Beard of Keller Williams Advisors in Oakland, Calif.; and Tim Hur, CRS, SRS, of Point Honors and Associates, REALTORS®, in Duluth, Ga.—share their experiences encountering discrimination in real estate. They offer firsthand advice on how to spot biases and avoid fair housing violations. With almost three decades in the business, Arora gives back to the real estate profession by volunteering in numerous positions. She served as the president of the Northern Virginia Association of REALTORS®' Board of Directors in 2018. She currently serves as vice chair of NAR's Global Business and Alliances Committee, treasurer of the Virginia Association of REALTORS®, and a member of the Dulles Association of REALTORS®' Budget and Finance Committee as well as the Education Advisory Committee.

The Department of Justice pulled out of its proposed settlement with NAR and President Biden has issued an executive order addressing ‘exclusionary practices' in real estate. Now, more than ever, NAR will need to exercise its political power to fight off FTC regulations. But how much political pull does the organization really have?   On this episode of Industry Relations, Rob explains why he thinks NAR is the weakest it's ever been politically, discussing how changes to the Code of Ethics harmed the organization's unity and what that might mean for contributions to RPAC.   Greg offers the counterargument that NAR's record-high membership is a reflection of its political capital, and our hosts explore the concerns professional staff and academics in DC have raised around real estate for the last 20 years.   Listen in to understand how the insanity of the 2020 housing market might influence the way the public thinks about real estate and learn what you should be doing to combat potential government regulations or plan for lower commissions moving forward.   What's Discussed:     Why Rob thinks NAR is the weakest it's ever been politically Greg's counterargument that NAR's record-high membership is a reflection of its political capital What a conversation between an NAR lobbyist and the chief of staff for a senator might sound like How changes to the NAR Code of Ethics harmed the organization's unity (and what that might mean for RPAC contributions) How NAR's head lobbyist's connection to the Trump organization might impact her ability to get the REALTOR agenda through The concerns professional staff and academics in DC have raised re: real estate for the last 20 years How the insanity of the 2020 housing market might influence the way the public thinks about real estate Rob and Greg's challenge to listeners to engage their membership in conversations around potential regulations The benefit of contingency planning for lower commissions   Connect with Rob and Greg:    Rob's Website Greg's Website   Resources:   Justice Department Withdraws from Settlement with the National Association of Realtors Biden's Executive Order on Promoting Competition in the American Economy NAR Code of Ethics & Professional Standards Policy Changes REALTORS Political Action Committee Phillip Cantrell on The Notorious POD EP017   Our Sponsors:    Cloud Agent Suite Notorious VIP

There are so many benefits for real estate agents and REALTOR® members of local associations. Adorna Carroll is on the show to talk about everything that associations have to offer their members. Monica and Adorna share some of the benefits of joining an association, as well as best practices for engaging with your local, state, or national association.   There are several values that associations can bring for agents, especially in the real estate industry where there is a three-way partnership between the local, state, and national association. The local association is the first point of contact for many REALTORS®, helping to orient the members and share industry best practices, ethics, etc. The local association also helps members understand what happens at the state and national levels.   Another huge benefit of associations is networking! The opportunities are abundant both for you as an agent and for your clients. You have the opportunity to connect with people outside of your market, increase your reach, and work with people who are experts in a discipline other than your own. Networking across disciplines also benefits your communities and the populations you serve.   Adorna and Monica talk about some other committees involved in the local, state, or national associations. Many associations have an educational committee, but Adorna views this more as professional and career development; associations should be focusing on getting a variety of people in front of their members who are going to present the best information for growth. Be intentional and pick good courses that are going to further your career.   The Ethics and Arbitration option is a big part of the associations and what they’re about. There is a code of ethics in the real estate industry that helps to define the boundaries for REALTORS®. Adorna talks about some policies that help to define how agents should conduct themselves.   The Government Affairs division is important for advocacy across the industry. The RPAC, or REALTORS® Political Action Committee, is an important vehicle for getting funding, strong lobbyists, and unity in the industry. This committee is on all levels, and forming personal relationships or political contacts is where the work can really get done.   Some of the other committees they talk about are the YPN, the Young Professionals Network or Your Professional Network. This was originally created for younger real estate professionals to network and has morphed into a leadership and mentorship program. Most associations also have a finance/budget committee, hopefully with people who have a finance background and good checks and balances in place.   There is a shared relationship between association volunteers and association staff. Annual training is key to establishing a productive relationship between both parties. The association staff manages the business and works for the corporation. The volunteers bring creativity and define the horizon line for the association and the members.   Adorna’s last words for listeners are that getting involved in associations makes the most sense for your business. Not only will you get to know the people you will be working with, but you’ll learn so much along the way that it is guaranteed to be a great investment for your business.   Tweetables:   “Go beyond competency and go for proficiency.” — Adorna   “If real estate is your career, politics is your business.” — Adorna   “Getting involved makes good sense for their own personal business. It’s an incredible opportunity and an investment in your business.” — Adorna   Guest Links:   Adorna’s Website   Additional Links:   Crdpodcast.com   Onlinelearning.realtor for NAR Online Education Training4RE.com — List of Classroom Courses from NAR and its affiliates   CRD@nar.realtor   Host Information: Monica Neubauer Speaker/Podcaster/REALTOR® Monica@MonicaNeubauer.com MonicaNeubauer.com FranklinTNBlog.com   Monica’s Facebook Page Facebook.com/Monica.Neubauer Instagram Instagram.com/MonicaNeubauerSpeaks   Additional Bio:   Adorna O.

I am fairly involved and knowledgeable about local politics, and so I get asked with some regularity what my opinions are about different candidates. Rather than typing it out in a massive post, I decided to record a podcast about it, with a special focus on which politicians (particularly among the local ones) will be good for local real estate. I cover county/local, state, and federal elections in this unique episode! Hopefully, it will help you be prepared at the ballot box.

March is Women's History Month, and I wanted to take a moment to briefly shine a spotlight on a few inspiring women in real estate (I say "briefly" because there's an entire podcast -- not just one or two episodes -- just waiting to be made on this topic). Join me as I highlight some of the interesting facts about women in real estate, from both a historical and modern perspective, as well as welcome some inspiring guests.In this episode, join me for a fun brunch with three past female Presidents of the Georgia REALTORS® -- 2001 President Barbara Kennon, 2005 President Jan Baker, and 2013 President Robin Lance. Not only are they three of the 12 female Past Presidents of the Georgia REALTORS®, they are shining examples of leadership and they are fast friends -- the real kind, true "besties" who lift each other up, sing each other's praises...and are constantly on the lookout for future female leaders to continue their legacies.Honoring HARRIET KONTER: The ladies wanted to be sure that we honored their dear friend, Harriet Konter, first female President of the Georgia REALTORS®, whom we lost in fall or 2019. In her honor, here is a little more about this inspiring woman. Harriet Konter blazed the trail for women serving in GAR leadership roles as the first female president of GAR in 1987. Her REALTOR® association involvement stretches over many decades and includes leadership roles with the Savannah Board of REALTORS® (SABOR), GAR, NAR, and the Women’s Council of REALTORS®. Harriet’s accolades include REALTOR® of the Year for both SABOR and GAR, the Omega Tau Rho Medal from NAR, and NAR’s RPAC Hall of Fame. Along with her late husband, Larry, Harriet founded Konter Realty in Savannah, which she still operates today. Harriet and Larry Konter were the second couple in the U.S. to serve as Presidents of a state association of REALTORS®. SABOR created the Konter Award in honor of the couple, which inducts REALTORS® into the SABOR Hall of Fame.For the bios of these three inspiring women, please see below.BARBARA KENNON: Barbara Kennon served as GAR President in 2001, and was tasked with presiding over the GAR Annual Convention that year, which began on September 11. On that infamous day and in the days that followed, Barbara brought her strength of commitment for the REALTOR® family and wrapped each of the attendees up in the warmth of family protection. She was truly the right person at the right moment to lead this organization and its members out of the darkness of the day and into the future. Barbara has served the Columbus Board of REALTORS® as a Director and has chaired multiple committees, including RPAC, Programs, Membership, Public Relations, and Strategic Planning. She served as the Columbus Board’s President in 1983. In addition to serving as 2001 GAR President, Barbara has served as an RPAC Trustee, GRI Dean and Governor, and two terms as Regional Director.

Successful business planning comes when we develop the habits to utilize them. There are three guests joining Monica on the show today, to talk about how they’ve been successful with their business planning. Misty Woodford has been in real estate for about 10 years and formerly owned her own brokerage. She no longer owns her firm and now works with Benchmark Realty and is actively selling. Trish Myatt has been in real estate for nearly 14 years, and right from the start got into a good system and long-term planning. Barry Owen was in the Army for 12 years and has been in real estate for 24 years. He owns his own firm and teaches and still does some selling but mostly runs the company. Why is business planning so important? For Misty, the motto that stuck with her is “failing to plan is planning to fail.” Having a plan allows her to continue to move forward with tasks, following the plan like a roadmap. It is a stress reliever for Trish, and having a plan allows her to have something to come back to when things start getting crazy. Barry uses business planning because it gives him a place to go — it boils down to whether what he’s doing right this minute is contributing to where he wants to go. When making her business plan, Trish reflects on what worked for the past year and what she wants to carry over and tries to look ahead to see where the market is going, to see if there are any proactive changes that need to be made. Barry starts business planning for the next year on the first day of the fourth quarter. He tries to think of three big priorities to hit in the next year and uses the remaining time in the quarter before the new year to figure out how he’s going to turn those goals into practical steps he can achieve. Misty sets aside three days towards the end of the calendar and sets three business, personal, and spiritual goals. By November she likes to have what the plan will look like for the next year. It’s important to schedule in family time and time away from the business as well, as well as any marketing events you want to do for your clients. Trish talks about her “pumpkin run” and how she uses time to show appreciation to her clients. Making time can be difficult, but you just have to do it. Planning it as part of your day and guaranteeing you will do it is vital for making sure the business is supporting the clients. Barry does this first thing in the morning each day, so he doesn’t have to think twice about anything during the day. This makes it easier to deal with obstacles as well. Clients often understand that you need time away from them to best help serve them when you are helping them. Misty turns her phone off at a certain time each night. When working on your plans, it’s important to consider how much business you want to do, your finances, and take a look at what systems you have that help you focus forward. Misty lays out what she has to have, what would be nice to have, and what is the dream level. Knowing what is enough in all those areas is an important start. Also understanding what you can delegate or refer to other people can help redefine success for you and your business plan. Barry’s plan is about moving forward every single day towards a better quality of life. Financial planning is incredibly important as part of your business plan. Trish focuses on the synergy between business purchases and how they come back to reward her. Sometimes investing in something personally can help you focus on making smart business decisions. Misty talks about giving yourself permission to know what you thrive on and allocating resources for the other things. Spending your money on the right things is also important to make sure your business is sustainable. Barry ended up outsourcing for some positions he needed to be filled and it’s been a huge help to his business. Barry, Trish, and Misty talk about some of the software and technology they are using in their businesses. Some of the things they are using are Commissions Inc, Brokerment, Top Producer, QuickBooks, and Wise Agent. The panel shares some tips for keeping up with their businesses. Trish uses the checklists in Top Producer to follow up with clients and maintain to-do lists for each day. Misty also utilizes checklists but she uses the Wise Agent program to help manage transactions. Members of the panel also still use paper planners, as well as Gmail and Barry uses Google Drive as a backup. Having these systems is beneficial, but only if you have the right habits to utilize them! Having an accountability partner is very useful for getting the most out of systems and making sure you’re getting done what you’ve said you’re going to do. Barry’s final closing thoughts are about the idea of 80/20 — 20% is the vital few or the stuff that must be done and 80% is everything else. If someone wants to succeed, they have to know who and what the 20% are. This can help prioritize your projects and organize your day. Trish has brought some of her customer service background to her real estate business. She uses her systems to manage customer information so she can recognize their house anniversaries, birthdays, and annual reviews. For people who aren’t too high tech, you can still grow a big and healthy business. For Misty, the key to making business planning and time management work was knowing who she was as a person and knowing what she needed the systems to do for her. Finding what worked for her is what made her do it. Education is a huge help to stay focused on your business and provide creative ideas. It doesn’t have to be real estate-centric. You can also learn from peers that you admire — don’t be afraid to ask them for tips! Monica shares three final tips for successful business planning. The first is setting an appointment: set an appointment with yourself to do your planning, then actually go to the appointment — make it a priority! After you have met with yourself and done your planning, meet with a friend who can hold you accountable to stick to do you plan. The second tip is to choose one new system that can help you improve your business next year. Her third tip is to find or pick a new source of education for yourself. Is there an area of your business where you are weak? Find a source of education that will help you grow in that area.

Trish Myatt Trish Myatt is a Broker with Benchmark Realty in the Greater Nashville area.
