Real estate is by far one of the most complex jobs you will ever get into. You need to know everything from marketing to contract. You must understand homes and understand people. The key is to get started and keep learning.

If you asked most agents why they got into real estate there tends to be one answer that is most common. They got into real estate because of the limitless earning potential and pay that reflects efforts, knowledge, networking, and some luck, not just an hourly wage. Knowing this it is easy to understand that agents are often money driven.

Once a real estate agent gets past the honeymoon stage of becoming an agent they start to notice the work needed to succeed. It is then that they realize the limitless earning potential means you must have a relentless drive. That is why I made this episode to help agents find that inner fire. I want them to know that it is all about the clients and the Benjamins come as a biproduct.

We must remember our clients feeling on our pay. Oftentimes clients are confused by commissions and how it is earned because they reflect back to their job where they produce an hourly wage. It is our job to show them examples and make them an example of how we get them more money, reduce stress, and successfully move their entire lives all while being a great mentor and guide. Make sure to take the time to learn to explain this to them in detail. Tune in today.
