3A My Entrepreneurship Story

My entrepreneurship story is surrounded around my real estate agent goals. The act of selling real estate itself is just a category of sales, but heading a successful real estate team would make me an entrepreneur. Right now, my family runs a real estate team and is doing pretty well in the Tampa Bay area. My entrepreneurial goals though are to take the base of this team and add on to it. Right now, my family employs 4 sales agents to work in the business. My goal once I take over this company is to add 9 agents and make the ideal sales team. I am currently part of a coaching system under a guy named Craig Proctor. I started in the summer of 2016 and since my imagination of what can be has skyrocketed. Craig Proctor in the past two decades has been in the top ten most producing real estate agents in the United States and Canada. He did so by breaking down a team into subcategories and having agents only specialize in part of the process of conducting real estate instead of everyone doing everything like other teams. My goal is to copy Craig's process and become the "Rain Maker" of my team and to have 14 people on my team, 2 to each category. I plan on doing so in the near future. My family really set me up to become a real estate agent but my entrepreneurial spirits are going to take my team to the next level.

    Hey John,

    I am really glad that you have found what you like to do and would like to congratulate you for your recent success in this industry! I am somewhat familiar with real estate agencies as my dad is an agent himself who mainly focuses on house flipping. This industry can be a very up and down industry but it is good to have confidence, patience and people by your side at all times. Best of luck in your future endeavors, John!

    Hello John,
    I am not familiar with the real estate industry, but the plan you explained was very detailed, so I understood more. I am from the Tampa Bay area and know that lots of people are currently looking to buy homes, so I wish you much success! In my post, I talked about an entrepreneur who established her own consulting firm that works internationally. She gave me much advice and tips, but I could only imagine being coached by a successful entrepreneur in the same industry. Being coached by someone like Craig Proctor will help you make connections and strengthen your skills you need for real estate!

4A An Opportunity Belief

I believe that the opportunity for a extremely high skilled real estate team is needed in the Tampa Bay Area. My belief is due to the numerous bad realtors there are in Tampa Bay and how there are minimal large teams. Conducting a real estate transaction takes multiple parties to all come together to sign off on the deal and this can be really difficult on a single agent. There are some teams already put together in the area but none in the way that I plan to do. I have experience working for the team with the most sales in the Tampa Bay area, the Bell-Henderson Team. Even that team though is not broken down how I wish it was. They are just a large group of agents acting as a team but all doing all of the tasks themselves instead of dividing tasks according to the person with the most expertise. The need for this team is ultimately from the individuals buying and selling real estate. They need to be represented by a team who can do what is best in their particular circumstance inste

28A- My Exit Strategy

My exit strategy is to sell my product to the distribution specialist after they realize how big of a market it could be and how it could be implemented after like 3 to 5 years of running it myself. Hopefully it would be by then that I would be able to sell it for over a million  dollars and with that money I would use to start up my real estate development business. I selected this exit strategy because I do not really want to make this my entire life. The typical entrepreneur makes their products their entire life and makes it their prime focus of their life. I want my life and my business to be about how to create a business with my family and successfully run it. I have spent the last three years of my life and am going to spend the next 2 years trying to learn all about business and all about the best practices. I want to utilize all of this information for the best and make my own company with what I have learned. This exit strategy has influenced my concept mostly because I d
