Selling the Dream: A Podcast for Resort & 2nd Home Real Estate Agents
Ep. 179: April Mastermind Replay
Are you missing getting together with other agents, and brainstorming ways to grow your business?
Then you won’t want to miss our mastermind meeting replays!
You’re going to want to be a “fly on the wall” to hear about what we’re seeing in the market as a result of COVID, how we’re handling buyers who may have cold feet about buying second homes, and how we’re all facing an ever-changing real estate market!
Any real estate agent who has been in the business for a while knows what happens during an economic downturn: people decide that this isn’t the industry for them!
If sales are drying up, income isn’t coming in! And that’s where people start jumping into more “consistent” careers.
When you take time to invest in your business, and keep encouraging each other in best practices, you’ll be able to get that boost that you need!
That said, we’d love to invite you to “join” us and listen in!
You can hear us talking all about what’s happening in our markets, how we’re responding to the pandemic, and how we’re planning for the future! You won’t want to miss this week’s episode of the Selling the Dream podcast!
