Sacramento Real Estate Blog

I’m hoping to have good news about a Realtor® I’ve been recruiting for some time now.  Last I heard she’s leaning toward Elite from her current position at (Mumbledee-Mumbledee), so I hope it comes together.  The story behind this agent is rather interesting, inasmuch as I began talking to her last year while I was doing some general recruiting, because her production numbers looked quite good.  What I found out later from an email from her is that she’d started blogging in the meantime but felt a little intimidated because I had done everything she’d thought of doing.

I wasn’t in fishing for compliments mode at that point, but had I been, that would have been a nice catch.   I took her comments instead as an opportunity to make some progress on an idea I’d had stewing for some time, about beginning to grow the company not only as a team of outstanding agents, but also as a community of outstanding players in the Internet market space.

I’m a firm believer in doing what you know, over and over again, better and better.  That may be because I’m in my late forties and I’m starting to act like the proverbial old dog who can’t learn a new trick.  Then again, maybe it’s because it works.

I’m really hopeful that this will come together.  I have a lot of projects that I need tons of writing help on, and would like to really start putting together some great new information that will benefit all Sacramento area buyers and sellers but also help more of my agents have more opportunities to work with the same great Internet-savvy people we’ve had the joy of working with in the past.  Quite frankly, I need someone with a little bit of technical focus to help me think strategically about the whole business, too, because lately I’ve been stretched a bit thin and I’m becoming a bit of a Zombie typing machine.
