Takeaways + Tactics

• Focus on recruits with customer experience. It\u2019s more important to find team members who know how to give great customer service than years of experience in the real estate industry.
  
• Have your staff write down every activity they do, and how long it takes them. From there, you can assess what should be done by a virtual assistant.
  
• Don\u2019t forget the importance of a great company culture. While systems are what build your business, culture is what allows it to grow.

Starting a business with the CEO model can be a daunting task, but if you\u2019re training a talented team of recruits, you can see great results. Take your business a step at a time and make sure you\u2019re constantly striving for improvement. Don\u2019t be discouraged if you fail along the way. The most important thing is learning from your mistakes and correcting your course.
