Sometimes being a broker feels like a series of tensions to juggle. Your agents want the best training, but they’re independent contractors — they also crave technology that you can’t require them to use. And while you’re trying to keep them happy and entice new blood to your brokerage, you also have to consider whether […]
Gary Gold says “being in play” — having ongoing conversations — with leads is how you become their designated agent.
