The
30-Day Track to Success
The 30-Day
Track to Success
is the book which will
help the new sales associate
to become productive and successful
quickly. It is also used by
many experienced sales associates
who wish to "go back
to the basics," to increase
their earning capabilities.
Brokers love the book, because
it helps the new sales associate
become self-sufficient much
more quickly. Each day’s
activities are set out clearly,
and because of the workbook
style of the book, the broker
can see the sales associate’s
level of activity at a glance.
Testimonial:
"Your manual has put
the motivational speakers
I've heard over the last 10
years to shame. All any broker
needs is good people with
the right attitude and your
manual. What a time-saver
for me." Bill
Connor, CRB, CRS, GRI, Area-Wide
Realty, Dayton, Ohio
