When an inquiry comes into
the office on your home, it will
go to ME and MY TEAM since
we are the most qualified to
answer any questions for
potential buyers.
Those important inquiries go to
any agent that answers the phone
resulting in several concerns:
-How qualified is that agent?
- Does that agent have another listing they would
rather sell?
You will never have these concerns
at RE/MAX!
In this property
transaction is controlled
by you and I.
At other firms the manager
decides where the
property will be marketed
and how often it will be
showcased in advertising.
Not the case at RE/MAX
My real estate business is my
Fortune 500 Firm.
As such I:
-Prepare a Business Plan
-Budget advertising dollars
-Study marketing strategies
-Understand the market
-Know where buyers shop
-Study the mindset of buyers
-Complete a full analysis and
marketing plan for each
property I list
RE/MAX has the
best agents. My
team will be
notified once
your home is on
the market.
There’s a good

Once a month our agents participate in a S.W.A.T. - See What
Agents Think. We meet at 9:00 AM at the first property and we
spend the morning touring approximately 10 of our listings. At
each property every agent fills out a detailed marketing profile
about that home. At the conclusion of the tour we have a 30
minute debriefing where we discuss each property and the listing
agent receives concrete, handwritten, constructive feedback on
how to get the property SOLD.
That’s the POWER of TEAM!

A portion of each closing I do goes to
Children’s Miracle Network.
The money I raise goes to our local
Children’s Hospital.
Walmart also reached $100 million in donations to
CMN, but RE/MAX is the only one that did so with
donations from the workers, from agents, not from
the consumer. I believe it’s important to work with
companies that give back. That’s a big reason why
I chose RE/MAX.
RE/MAX has always been a big supporter of the
Susan G. Komen program as well. Our CEO,
Margaret Kelly is a breast cancer survivor. In 2009
RE/MAX became a national sponsor of SGK.

business, I spend that time educating
myself on new techniques to further
my ability to be the best possible
representative for my clients.

You may wonder about the alphabetsoup acronyms that real estate agents
use after their names. What do they
mean?
Nothing contributes to success more than
professional education.
Through RE/MAX University I have access to
many of the designation courses 24/7 through
that portal!
I can appreciate that
because if you’re
investing in major
markets you need to
be on top of
everything that can
affect your life
savings and
investments. That’s
why I read…
When I spend time talking about all of
the things RE/MAX and I can offer, I
find it just as important to talk about
what I am not.
At some firms the agents get
compensated residual income for
recruiting agents to the company.
Here’s the problem…
Does that agent care more about getting
you the best price OR recruiting the buyer
agent to their down line?
Do you see the conflict?
My company gives me leads That’s what
happens when you work for a firm with
national brand exposure. Why is it so
important that you work with a firm that
provides clients to its agents?”
With company generated leads, more of
my daily schedule is left free to
concentrate on marketing properties
while working hand in hand with my
seller and buyer clients

Everything we talked about today comes down to one
thing…BRAND. When people think real estate they think
RE/MAX. The RE/MAX balloon represents the amazing
lift our organization has had over the last 37 years. It
was built by a great executive team and we continue to
remain on the forefront of every consumers mind when
people think about buying or selling a home.
We continue to remain on in front in the real
estate world because RE/MAX remains
committed to online web exposure, educating
agents, and the best technology available. As
well, they continue to have the greatest share of
voice in the real estate industry. While other
firms have cut back or even eliminated national
advertising budgets we continue to realize that
to remain dominant and do give our sellers the
best exposure possible a national advertising
and brand campaign is not optional…it is
absolutely necessary.

The buyer for your home may be living in Alaska. He may be
watching television right now, waiting for the finale of Grey’s
Anatomy. On comes a RE/MAX commercial which talks about
why it’s a good time to buy. The advertisement pans out and
the screen announces the call to action: visit Remax.com
today to find the home of your dreams
Mr. and Mrs. Seller everything that RE/MAX has built for 37
years is about this…it is about making sure that that buyer in
Alaska finds me, your real estate agent, who is more than
qualified to sell him the home of his dreams…your home.
My competitors will tell you that
national brand recognition does not
matter. They tell you that because they
don’t have it. You know who realizes
that brand is important?

and now YOU
1. What is their mission?
2. Do they have a team, or is it just one agent?
3. Will other agents help sell the property, and if so
what is the per agent productivity of that team?
4. Are they equipped with in house mortgage and
title?
5. Who will all the sign and advertising calls go to?
6. Who handles the listing destiny as far as
marketing and promotion?
7. Do they do a SWAT tour with other members of
the firm?
8. Do they have their own Design Team?
9. Does a portion of their sale go to charity?
10. Do they have an in-house university?
11. Are they a top 10 company when it comes to web
searches?
12. Do they have Curbside Connection to capture
buyer inquiries?
13. Are their listings showcased on the #1 Real Estate
website, Realtor.com?
14. Where does their company stand as far as getting
important designations?
15. What do they read in lieu of The Wall Street
Journal?
16. Are they a profit sharing firm or are they
committed solely to your best interests in the
transaction?
17. Does their firm help them generate business so
that they can spend more of their day working on
your listing?
18. Do they have access to a Peak Performance
Center or Virtual Business Center for ease of
accessing other experts and marketing
information?
19. Are they spending more than $1 billion a year to
remain first and foremost in the minds of
consumers so that they are more likely to capture
the interested buyer on your home?
For an unbiased opinion of the type of service I provide, I will
gladly provide you with contact information for past clients.
They are my biggest advocates.
