Selling Out...

Okay, time to admit it.....I am a HUGE sell out. I left my job in the Pharmaceutical industry to join a good friend, Jennifer Spencer, in the Real Estate world. Many thought it was a big mistake (Dad, I am talking to you!), but this has been the best move of my life. I have totally sold my soul to the "For Sale" sign.

Two occurrences have drawn my attention to why I know this life is for me. (Note that I said "life" not "job")

No. 1 : Dredging up passion in others. An old friend and I have recently reconnected. She mentioned that she has always wondered if she would be successful in Real Estate. Knowing how driven and creative she is, I knew she'd be AMAZING at it. So far, soooo good. She loves the classes and the content. She is so money and she doesn't even know it. I can't wait to share this new and exciting journey with her.

No. 2 : Selling myself. Last night I met a wonderful family who will be relocating to another state this summer. They want to sell and they want to do it FAST. Currently, they are listed with another larger brokerage in town, but they want more...more specialized attention and passion for their home. It was the first time that I really sat down with someone and sold me...not the fluff and the stuff...me.
WOW. How empowering. My knowledge of the internet, creative thinking and confidence made the presentation impactful. Jennifer's impressive sales resume and knowledge of the industry made it compelling. How could you NOT hire us??? I have never felt so validated in all of my working life. Wow.

Now I know. I know why people don't just work for the paycheck, but for the passion. Turn it up ya'll because we are on fire!
