I’m Irene McCann and this is my Coldwell Banker® success story.
I started my real estate career with a company that financially rewarded agents who were successful recruiters. So when my personal success became more about how many agents I brought in and less about how many clients I helped buy or sell a home, I knew that I needed a change.
“I wanted to surround myself with like-minded individuals who want to serve clients.”
Serving My Clients, Not Recruiting Agents
I found that I wasn’t a recruiter and didn’t really want to be. When I made my decision to leave, I wanted to go to a real estate company where I could surround myself with like-minded professionals whose main focus, above all else, was to serve clients. After all, this is my career, my livelihood. I wanted to be more than the agent I was. And having the right tools and professional atmosphere to learn from was exactly what I needed. After interviewing with several real estate companies, I ultimately chose Coldwell Banker because of the:
* Rich history and culture for success
* Cutting-edge technology
* Robust marketing program
I hope this letter finds you enjoying the Holiday Season and beginning an exciting 2012!
Just as we have all done in 2011, the wildly talented corporate marketing team has battled market conditions while working hard in continuing to raise awareness for the great Coldwell Banker brand in an effort to drive more leads to you. We had the opportunity to see first hand when we all met Coldwell Banker Chief Marketing Officer(& Atlantic City native) Michael Fischer back in September.
Keeping up with the trend of video format marketing, the team created a video which provides greater depth to the achievements the Coldwell Banker brand enjoyed on the marketing front in 2011. The video format also allows you the opportunity to see clearly the benefits of the Coldwell Banker brand. Further, it is a great opportunity(in conjunction with our recently released ‘ARB’ program) to share this link with potential recruits that would make a great addition to our already awesome group!
