We’ve developed a year-one plan of action and tons of free resources for all the amazing new real estate agents to ensure they get the best possible start to their careers.
At ReminderMedia, we’ve produced a library of content to help new real estate agents become their best selves. Whether that means making more money, breaking into new marketing, or building a team, we create free content and coaching to help our clients, new and experienced, succeed.
But everybody has to start somewhere. According to the NAR, 75% of Realtors® fail in their first year while 87% leave the industry after five years. Scary, huh? In an industry that requires agents to be their own boss, it’s no surprise that many might not know where to turn. So, we’ve developed a plan of action for all of the amazing newcomers (yes, you) who are just getting into the game.
The content is chronologically organized for rookie agents to not only survive but to thrive in their first year and become one of the best agents in their markets. There will be plenty of people ready to tell you it isn’t possible to scale so fast, but time and time again we have seen highly motivated, new agents succeed at a rapid clip in comparison to their more seasoned colleagues.
