Hey, it\u2019s a great day to recruit, and today we\u2019re making a stop in Minneapolis to check in with Ryan O\u2019Neill.
\xa0
Ryan is the founder and team leader of The Minnesota Real Estate Team.\xa0 This is an appropriate name because they have been the #1 selling team in the State of Minnesota for many years.
\xa0
Ryan started his team in 2005 (long before teams were common in the real estate industry) and built it into an organization that is much larger and prominent than most brokerages.
\xa0
Last year, they were ranked #14 on the Real Trends list of the highest producing mega-teams in the country.\xa0 They got there by closing over 2,200 transactions and making $750 million in sales.
\xa0
Of course, it takes a lot of recruiting to achieve this level of success, and Ryan is one of the best in the industry at attracting and retaining the best agents in his marketplace.
\xa0
In fact, he\u2019s so good at attracting talent, the Minnesota Star Tribune named Ryan\u2019s team as the #1 Mid-Sized company to work for in Twin City metro area.
\xa0
This isn\u2019t just the top spot for real estate companies, this is #1 ranking among all companies.\xa0 I\u2019ve never seen a real estate company win an award like this, so he must be doing something special.

Let\u2019s jump in and see what we can learn from Ryan\u2019s achievements.
