3 Key Takeaways for Agents to Implement:
- Enforce Expectations Ruthlessly – Setting clear performance benchmarks and holding agents accountable ensures a high-performing team. Weak enforcement leads to stagnation.
- Stop Chasing New Tactics – Instead of attending every conference and adopting every new tool, focus on executing the basics at a high level—relationships drive results.
- Always Be Recruiting – The key to consistent growth is having a steady pipeline of potential agents. A strong recruiting system prevents reliance on underperforming team members.
