How Many Of You, Know Your Stuff?

Do you think you know as much as you think? Maybe you could use a "brush up"?

I cannot count on my fingers and toes how many times that I have gone into a business deal where the other agent is not as informed.

Know your stuff please! Backed by facts. Your client will not only think you have it together, but they will trust you, to guide them through the process.

Take classes, classes, classes!!! Take advantage in as many free classes offered as you can. If you think you need the knowledge of a class offered, but  it's at a price, however financially you can swing it, then do it. Your business will thank you later.

I am not just talking about the required classes that is needed to renew a licenses. I am talking about more classes, more elective courses: Seminars, Community Functions, events held by your brokers.
Look at taking these classes as not a chore, but good insight to feeding your business.

I see so many people looking at their life and living in the now, and not thinking of the future. When running a business it is impossible to have one without the other. As a business owner, you have to look at both. Your short term needs, and long term needs. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS be one step ahead of your business else it will be one step ahead of you.

This is why in the beginning I said have two goals, when beginning any business plan.
