The New REALTOR Model – Living in Your “Sweet Spot”
Wayne Fredrick, Regional Director, RE/MAX Mid-States Region
As the old adage says…”success leaves clues.” From Dave Liniger and Warren Buffett to Tiger Woods, the people who understand their own strengths and how to capitalize on them end up on top. Learn lessons from top achievers, and how those lessons apply to your personal business. By studying examples of success, you will begin to see your business in a way that you may have never considered. As Warren Buffet once said, “I am really no different from any of you. I may have more money than you do, but money doesn’t make the difference. If there is any difference between you and me, it may simply be that I get up every day and have a chance to do what I love to do, every day. If you want to learn anything from me, this is the best advice I can give you.”

LeadStreet: Evolution or Revolution?
David Teefy, Chief Technology Officer, RE/MAX Mid-States and Dixie Region
The National Association of REALTORS's reports that 87% of home buyers turn to the Internet as the authority for their home buying source. If you still consider your local home publication or newspaper as your number one marketing resource, you will be lucky to reach one-half to one-third of your buyers. In most real estate companies, that is acceptable -- but not in the RE/MAX System. As the leading real estate company in the world, RE/MAX Sales Associates takes every aspect of their business to the next level. In the RE/MAX Mid-States Region, we are fortunate to have one of the founding fathers of the real estate web listing industry as part of our family. Our Chief Technology Officer David Teefy will share with you the latest innovations within the RE/MAX LeadStreet system. David will delve into the newest products and tools that will deliver business to your door tomorrow and through 2010. This is a do-not-miss workshop for those of you who are looking to increase your business for the rest of this year and into the future.
