ADVOCACY IS THE WAY

By Adam Zastrow

“Joining Realty Executives Integrity is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made!”

This is a statement I hear regularly from our Executives, Staff, and Leaders.

It fuels me to constantly ask myself, “How can I help more Realtors® & entrepreneurs experience the freedom, profitability, and support that Realty Executives Integrity offers?” The answer is simple: You GET quality Sales Executives FROM quality Sales Executives.

Advocacy has become the way forward in healthy brokerage growth with more high-quality, high-caliber agents.

It assures we bring the right people into the Realty Executives Integrity family and empowers our Executives to help us grow a stronger company. We want to create a raving fan-base for the unique opportunities we provide, and our story is the most compelling in our marketplace for a real estate professional.

The dictionary defines advocacy as “the act or process of supporting a cause.” But I think that spending any amount of time with some of our own Executives would give a person a much better idea of what it means to be an advocate. Take Annie Domres for example; Annie is constantly sharing the benefits of Realty Executives with her friends and acquaintances. She almost always has a guest or two to bring to our Dinner of Honor. And she’s never shied away from inviting her Co-Broke Friends to consider what Realty Executives could do for their business.

You might be asking, “What exactly is the goal for Realty Executives Integrity?” Net 10% Agent growth each year with high-quality people whom our Executives highly recommend & enjoy working with.

Our very best recruits almost always come from our existing Sales Executives. That’s a fact from 25 years of carefully monitoring the growth patterns of Realty Executives Integrity. We desire to have our Executives play a role in bringing more people to our company. The best part about this approach to healthy growth is that “relationships of trust” are at the center of it all!

I’ve learned that recruits join Realty Executives Integrity because they find compelling reasons to join (not because we convince them) and there is nothing more compelling than being invited to join by a trusted friend and peer in the business.

We’re more than just a destination for Top-Producing & Well-Established Sales Executives. We CREATE Top-Producing Sales Executives and SUPPORT established Realtors® by discovering ways to take their business to new heights.

We’re all about changing lives for the better by providing opportunities for people to run their own business with all the freedom, profitability, and support imaginable – immersed in a culture that feels like home & lives like family.

So, who else would you like to see experience the love and support of our Realty Executives Integrity family?

HERE TO HELP FROM THE BEGINNING PRE-LICENSING PROGRAM We’re proud to offer an incredible discount on the WRA Pre-Licensing program for those interested in a career in real estate or for our current Sales Executives looking to grow their business by adding a licensed member to their team.

The program is an online offering through the WRA with two course style options that will prepare you for taking the state licensing exam. After you successfully complete your state licensing test and are issued a real estate license by the DSPS, our Success Coaching program is the next step in your path at Realty Executives Integrity.

“

“The pre-licensing course that is offered through Realty Executives Integrity was super beneficial and convenient for me! Changing careers can be scary financially, so having a lessened cost by purchasing it through the brokerage was incredibly helpful to me!

They also reached out throughout my process which not only helped me stay on track but made me feel supported!”

WELCOME TO THE #REALTYEXECUTIVESFAMILY Curtis Umhoefer

“

Alexis Ruzell was the one who connected me with everyone at Realty Executives. I was motived to do more and obtain a freedom that real estate and Realty Executives gives. I want to be a designated agent in the Mequon area, where I grew up!”

Tim Martinez

“

Morgan Smith

“

I received my undergraduate diploma in economics in 1988 and already had some investment properties. Entering the traditional real estate sales industry seemed like a natural decision. Everything was good. Like a machine a person could buy a single-family home, and the return, over time, was easily predictable. Well, it seems like a lifetime ago. Since then literally everything has changed, but with one constant.

Real estate, as an investment, is still a natural choice for many Americans. It seems that my college economics coursework, along with a lifetime of real estate investing, brokering, and management has prepared me well for this next phase of the real estate market. I look forward to discovering and practicing as a career real estate professional.”

I chose Realty Executives because of the intrinsically positive environment and the focus on facilitating growth & development of each member of the team as an individual. There is a culture here that inspires people to be their best for themselves & their families!”

HOW WE GIVE BACK

The Realty Executives Wisconsin Region believes that community support and outreach is incredibly important. We actively support the following charitable organizations and each one is connected personally with a member of the Realty Executives Wisconsin brand.

HOW CAN YOU GIVE BACK? • Donate a portion of your commissions easily through our accounting department • Volunteer your time at upcoming events • Reach out and ask • Raise awareness by posting or sharing posts on social media

Lindsay’s Voice | featured at the Buck’s game!

Lindsay’s Voice | www.TreesOfHopeWI.org Dedicated to raising awareness for blood cancers such as Leukemia and Lymphoma as well as raising funds to support patient services and ongoing local research, Lindsay’s Voice was founded as a way to celebrate the life of Lindsay (Wenzel) Lopez.

Before 16 | www.Before16.org This 501 (c)3 nonprofit foundation was built to care for orphans and strive to get children hosted by a family who is either considering adoption or will be strong advocates for their adoption. Their hope is the hosting process will provide the avenue to find a loving family for each child before they turn 16 and are kicked out of the system.

SALS | www.SALShouses.org By providing a non-institutional sober living environment, SALS offers freedom with accountability for men and women who are serious about their sobriety.

JR’s Pups-N-Stuff | www.JrPupsNStuff.org This rescue began with one goal in mind: to save animals from life-threatening situations. It was built by a network of foster parents in the Milwaukee area so that animals don’t have to spend their days waiting for their fur-ever families in a kennel. It’s no wonder they’re known as the “little rescue with a big heart”.

Habitat for Humanity | www.Habitat.org Envisioning a world where everyone has a decent place to live, Habitat builds and renovates homes for families in need of sustainable housing.

John Behrens 29 Year Anniversary

What has been the most beneficial aspect of being with the Realty Executives Integrity Brand?

The atmosphere and colleagues play a large role in this. Also the freedom that allows me to run the business the way I see best fit. Other places try to dictate commissions and marketing and that’s just not the case here.

What is an interesting home selling experience that you’ve had like no other?

When we were approaching a closing on a duplex, we attended the final walk through. The first floor looked great but when we got to the upper tenant we were informed there was a problem. The tenant told us that his 12-foot python got out of the cage and into the walls. After the snake did not make an appearance, I made a call to the zoo and they suggested to crank the heat in the unit. A few hours later the snake was relaxing in the living room and we closed the next day!

What do you enjoy most about being a Designated Realtor?

The daily problem solving that is so different than working on your own problems because you aren’t as emotionally involved and you can see a different perspective. This keeps me mentally sharp and allows me to continue learning from other transactions. I enjoy mentoring new Executives and giving them encouragement while passing on my experiences!

SOCIAL MEDIA CORNER | TIP OF THE MONTH The first step to having a successful social media presence in real estate is posting consistently! Your digital sphere wants to see engaging content, meaning more than posts about your new listings. Social media needs a BALANCE. You can promote your listings on social media but make sure you are also showcasing YOU. Post selfies, videos, highlight your clients or even showcase a simple day at the office. Viewers want to relate to you so show your personality in your posts!

“I have had the pleasure of working with brand new REI executives, new to REI executives and some highly experienced REI executives. Each puts their own spin on how they “do real estate!” The common denominator though, is the professionalism, knowledge, customer service and INTEGRITY each has.

I am so thankful every day that my life’s experiences have brought me to Lake Country. I have never been happier and felt more at home in my role as a loan officer than I do working within the REI family.”

Susan Wilcox | (608) 295-7985 “Working with Susan Wilcox and A+ Mortgage was truly a blessing. Susan went above and beyond, exceeding all expectations to get my buyer to closing. As Realtors, we have all experienced lenders who look for reasons for NOT getting the property to close. BUT Susan and the A+ Mortgage team found a way to make it happen despite the buyer purchasing a new Harley Davidson a week before closing, even though he was told not to make any big purchases.

Susan kept the buyer and myself, well informed every step of the way and I would recommend her to all of my clients for purchasing new properties or refinancing.”

- Neil Miyashita | (414) 712-9229

“I found Susan Wilcox to be extremely professional, knowledgeable and accessible through my transactions with her! She always returned my phone calls and texts, in a timely manner, whenever I had a question.

My clients were well taken care of and were very pleased with the entire process, which is the most important aspect to me!”

EXPERIENCE A DINNER OF HONOR JUNE 18TH | Maggiano’s Little Italy Join us and bring a guest who you would like to see join our Realty Executives Family!

Reserve your spot TODAY with BeckyWilde@RealtyExecutives.com

The Dinner of Honor concept came from Rich Rector who was the President of Realty Executives International at that time. Rich was also the Broker Owner of the largest Realty Executives Brokerage in the world, with over 1,200 agents. Dale connected with Rich during one of our Realty Executives International Conferences. It was during that trip, that Rich shared the Dinner of Honor concept with Dale. Bringing quality agents to our Brokerage has always been important to us and Dale asked Rich to share a little about how he brought so many quality agents to his brokerage. The answer was simple…. You GET quality Sales Executives FROM quality Sales Executives. Rich went on to further explain the concept of the Dinner of Honor. You invite your Sales Executives to a dinner where you can honor and pour into them. Encourage them to invite a guest in the industry to join them for dinner and spend the evening sharing a meal, telling stories, laughing and honoring one another. Rich shared, it’s a great way for others to see who we are and the why behind everything we do. We immediately made plans to create our own version of the Dinner of Honor.

Our very first Dinner of Honor was held in 2017 at Maggiano’s and three years later they are stronger than ever. We’ve added our little touches along the way. Sometimes there’s live music, sometimes there are games with prizes, sometimes there are spouses there that also get honored. One thing remains the same though… we get to continue honoring our current Sales Executives while having a great meal and great conversation! As a result of these special evenings, many Dinner of Honor guests have made the decision to join our Realty Executives family and we have been thrilled. If you are interested in inviting a guest in the industry to our next Dinner of Honor on June 18th, please reach out to us!

“ “

“I was able to attend the Dinner of Honor as a guest and it was lovely! It provided a wonderful opportunity to connect with other agents to celebrate the successes, while enjoying a delicious meal.”

-Nicole LeClair

“The Dinner of Honor was a great experience for me!

I was blown away by the leadership team and their deep care for their Executives. Ultimately, the Dinner of Honor is what sealed the deal for me to start my real estate career with Realty Executives Integrity!”
