Chapters
Just laying out great interview questions for people because I think you should be interviewing teams. You just laid out like a number of awesome questions. If you're an agent considering a team, think about all the expenses tied to having to secure your first few transactions. You can bypass all of that and focus on the most important things. Learning, being developed, being in an ecosystem of collaboration, coaching. And what should you look for on a team? The good teams to me have infrastructure. I mean, they have accountability standards, they have training, they have coaching, they have support, they have leads, they help you develop. Role playing, prospecting, dialing out of your database door, knocking, open houses, an innovative approach towards leading you. And also building a team that can scale. Look at the leadership, look at their track record. How many agents have been successful on the team? How many agents have been successful after they leave the team.
