I was blown away, and honored by the response to my email about hiring a few agents to help them grow their businesses. Thank you to everyone who reached out. I wish I had the capacity to take everyone on. Here’s what I learned from talking to everyone: Many of you don’t have a database,…
The one universal “to do” on every agent’s list is their database. Many agent’s end up in a state of analysis paralysis about which program to use, how to get people in there, and what to do once you’ve got them there. Here’s a quick and dirty over view; Your database will never be perfect. It’s…
Can you feel it? Fall is coming, and the energy is building. This is your chance to take one last deep breath before kicking things into high gear. Rest is just as important as work. So take advantage of the long weekend. Do something fun, just for you. To your success! Nicole
I don’t read many business books. I know that I’m “supposed” to, but the reality is that most of them put me to sleep. Or they sound good, but the real life translation isn’t clear or easy to implement. But a few weeks ago I picked up Grit, by Angela Duckworth and couldn’t put it down. It’s…
Is it just me, or are these last 2 weeks of August a little weird? I’m stuck in limbo between vacation and back to school, and my abilities to juggle it all are starting to slip. Hence the reason you are getting this on Saturday vs Friday. On the one hand I’m having a blast…

Ever experience this? Why is it that sometimes clients seem to show up without us doing anything, and other times we doing everything right, and yet, the phone isn’t ringing? Ever feel like it’s working for everyone else, but not for you? I can’t tell you how many meetings I have been in with agents…
It’s such an odd question. After all, aren’t all clients good ones? Some are more difficult than others, but as long as you get paid, it’s all good. Right? At the beginning of my career I was right there with everyone else. I would work with anyone hoping that it would turn into a commission…
Maybe you’re new, or it’s been a while since you sold a house, or the price point intimidates you. Whatever it is, you are about to meet with your clients and you are not feeling it. You’re knees are shaking and you are the furthest thing from confident. All you can think of is the…
You’re selling houses right and left. It feels good to be busy. Yet, in the midst of it all, the voice in the back of your head wonders when the steak will end? Is it only a matter of time before the wheels come off, the phone calls dry up, and you are left wondering…
