LIVING IN ABUNDANCE By Dana Keegan
If you’ve read any “self-improvement’ literature, you’ve no doubt come across the concept of “abundant thinking”. It’s a mindset that frees us from fear and anxieties, but also a big reason why we overcome in life. It’s not something that’s tangible or even scientific in nature, but for those who commit to the mindset; it’s the difference between leading an ordinary life and an extraordinary one. Last month, during the CRS week of free training, which by the way was so great, I watched a webinar given by Leigh Brown and her ending comment struck a chord with me because it is undeniably true. She concluded her talk with “friends, real estate is a profession of abundance.” Now, picture in your mind Leigh sharing this nugget with the most delicious southern dialect you’ve heard and let that sink in for a moment. How AMAZING is that phrase? Doesn’t is resonate with you? I am so grateful to work in an industry that creates wealth, stability and opportunity. The most important skill you can have as a professional (in any profession) is a mindset of abundance. It’s a skill that won’t cost you a dime to acquire but will pay dividends in spades. Imagine if every single person practiced a mindset of abundance? This way of thinking was the operating norm and not the exception. The levels of generosity, kindness and cooperation would skyrocket overnight. Professionalism in our marketplace would experience an immediate shift for the better. Can you picture what the world would like if not one single person would be consumed by the fear there isn’t enough to go around? Toilet paper would appear overnight on the shelves, the anxiousness of not getting that listing appointment would be replaced with the firm belief that you’ve got the next one and your overall experiences at every level would be more enjoyable. When you move from a scarcity mindset to a mindset of abundance, your entire world can change overnight. As we enter the “month of gratitude”, explore the possibilities of letting go of assumptions and past beliefs. A new year is almost here and it’s a perfect time to reclaim your thinking patterns. If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s to roll with the unexpected and to find joy in the now. To borrow a classic phrase from the Dale Schaechterle vault, “stinking thinking leads to nowhere fast” and honestly, it’s your biggest competitor. We live colorful lives, so our thought processes can’t be black and white. Abundance is found between your ears, not your wallet. When you feel your mind moving to the dark side, remember “inhale gratitude, exhale abundance.”
Abundantly Yours,
- Dana

GET TO KNOW | Nicki Wendt Nicki is our Director of Support Services and has been a part of the Realty Executives Integrity family since November of 2015. Nicki has a wealth of knowledge! She started at our front desk, spent some time in our accounting department and is extremely passionate in her role of support services! Our front desk is the heartbeat of our company. It’s the first and last impression for visitors that stop by the office, it’s the smiling voice on the other end of the phone when customers and Realtors® call in and it’s the information center for our own Sales Executives. With that being said, Nicki has a servants heart and continues to pour into others daily. Which includes training our front desk staff so they lead with that same servants heart. From doing file review to training new members of our front desk staff to working with one of our Executives to answer a question in Dotloop. You’ll often find her with a big smile on her face as she is helping those around her. What does Nicki do outside of Realty Executives Integrity? She enjoys spending time with her Fiance Kevin, her pups Enzo and Luna and her mom. She has a great story on how Enzo joined their family…. It involves another country and a long plane ride. Next time you see Nicki, I encourage you to ask her about it, I know she would love to share! Most recently she and Kevin have invested into a camper to explore the wonderful world of camping together and they take the pups with them! In the winter months, you’ll find her in the bowling alley enjoying her passion for bowling! Some fun facts about Nicki? While she loves puppies, her favorite animal is the koala, with the otter coming in 2nd and believe It or not, she has over 3,000 bottles of nail polish and really enjoys doing her own nails.
WHY REALTY EXECUTIVES
“
“I originally joined Realty Executives because of Tonya Thomsen. She helped my mom and I find our home, and we just love her so much. When she told me about a job opening at the office, I jumped on the chance as I was looking for a change from my current job. From the moment I started working at the front desk, I learned that it was a very different environment than any I had ever worked in before. Everyone was so welcoming and it felt like I was joining a family and everyone genuinely cares about each other. I wake up every morning excited to go to work and happy to see the people who have become family to me. I can’t imagine working anywhere else after being here. Realty Executives is a truly special place to work and I only wish I had found my home here sooner! If you 5 love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life!”

SUCCESS COACHING UPDATE

“This month we’ve been working on our Mock Listing Appointments, actually working through Listing Appointments together to hone in on our skills - we’d rather practice on each other than on our clients! We will be finishing up our Listing Series with perfecting the negotiation piece of reviewing offers (preferably multiple offers)! As the leaves are changing, our topic will be too - we are moving into Buyer Agency this fall and can’t wait to perfect our offer-writing and negotiation skills!”

“I got into real estate 4 years ago on the investment side, and I fell in love with the field. It took me by surprise, and was unexpected. I experienced a sense of joy and happiness that I had yet to experience in any other pursuit of mine. I knew I wanted to further my career in the real estate industry, and thanks to my good friend John (John Warren, A+ Mortgage), he made the introduction to Realty Executives. The first day I visited the brokerage and sat in on Morgan’s success coaching, and then met with Adam, I immediately felt a sense of calmness, happiness and support. I had been searching for what was next, and I knew instantly that this was my next move in the industry.” McKennaSkerhutt@RealtyExecutives.com 262-325-9229

“The reason I got into real estate was people. My heart is for people. With a background in education I’ve always focused on these things; cultivating relationships and trust, serving my students, and doing everything I can to help them achieve their goals. I saw real estate as another avenue to do these things I’m passionate about. I get to continue to help people achieve their goals, serve people, and cultivate some amazing relationships along the way. Buying or selling a home is a big step in a persons life. To be able to play a part in making these big life moments happen, and to have someone trust me to walk along side them during the process is the greatest reward. Family is important to me, and that’s why I chose Realty Executives. Every level of this company has made me feel like part of a family. I’ve felt welcomed and supported since the very beginning. From the recruiting process, to the onboarding process, to finally joining a team, I have felt valued and cared for every step of the way. I truly believe that Realty Executives wants not only what’s best for me, but what’s best for my family. I can’t imagine being anywhere else!”

“Quote...” I got into real estate because I wanted a career that I could be in charge of and be my own boss. Also, I got very interested in wanting to buy investment properties, but I didn’t know what the process of buying a house was and everything that goes into it. I am excited to be able to help my future clients go through the process of buying/selling as this will probably be the biggest purchase of their life. I heard of Realty Executives through a friend, Lindsey Campbell. She helped me understand that the atmosphere was that they treat you like family, and how incredibly helpful everyone is. After, I met everyone there I knew it was the place for me!”

“I got into real estate because of my love for all things “home”. Architecture, interior design, character, renovations, neighborhood vibes, hidden gems - you name it, I love it! I’ve moved about 20 times in my life, so I know how important the right agent can be in making the transition smooth and enjoyable. I want to be that agent for other families - whether they’re moving across town or across the country.
I previously worked for a female-led real estate team in NV, so I knew I wanted to have the support of other strong women around me when I started this journey. A family friend introduced me to Ruth Ehrgott who was forming Your Concierge Team at Realty Executives Integrity. She had such great things to say about how REI was an agent-focused brokerage with a wonderful culture and amazing programs created to support the growth of my business. From that first conversation I knew it was where I belonged!”

“I am getting into real estate because I love to help people believe in themselves. And I think that buying / selling a home is a HUGE accomplishment that people should be proud of and I want to get them there. I also enjoy working and who better to work hard for than myself and my own business? I chose Realty Executives Integrity because it felt like ‘home’. Compared to other brokerages that I have spoken with, the entire team at Realty Executives Integrity radiates compassion and support; they don’t make me feel like a burden that they need to just ‘take on’.”

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
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”. 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.

TIME TO CELEBRATE Cathy Liebert 25 Year Anniversary
Hard to believe this year marks over 41 years in the Real Estate industry, and 25 years with Realty Executives, and Dale Schaechterle. It is not just a job, or a profession, but a way of life. It is flexible, exciting, constantly changing/ evolving, and rewarding. Not to mention exhausting, compelling, and consuming. Like the old saying, “I never thought getting old would be here so soon”, all these years, I am not tired of it. It is a meeting people and helping people profession. Every day is a new adventure, and I continue to be involved in the negotiations and a part of the transactions. When asked, how did you get into the Real Estate industry I simply answer, I did not choose it, it chose me. I love people and building relationships. Now, I am more energized than ever by having my daughter, KC, as part of the Team. “Two Lieberts are better than one” is our slogan, but it means so much more. Things are moving so fast in today’s industry; one person simply cannot possibly do it all. It is very detailed and complicated, but with two fresh ideas coming together, we can solve almost every situation or learn from trying. When KC first decided to try Real Estate, over 7 years ago, I thought I could be a mentor and pass on some of the “old school” ideas that experience taught me. As it turns out, she is teaching me too. I am learning all of the new social media and computer upgrades to keep things moving in today’s world, so we learn together. KC and I are both immersed in our relationships with every client. Selling and moving can be a very stressful situation to most. We are simply there to help and take away the fear and issues they think are difficult. By listening to their needs, we have learned how to help. This is what makes a Realtor® stay on task, and we do just that, way beyond the closing.

SOCIAL MEDIA CORNER | TIP OF THE MONTH Plan ahead.... It is easier to have authentic posts that speak to your target audience when you PLAN AHEAD! Grab a sheet of paper and head to wave.video/calendar - this is a place where you can get social media ideas. You will find generic ideas and national days that you can jot down and get pictures of ahead of time. For Example - I LOVE coffee & coffee shops. If I knew a few months in advance when National Coffee Day is, I can get a picture when it is convenient at my favorite shop. It is much easier than having to go out of my way last minute!

EXPERIENCE A
Dinner of Honor
NEXT DINNER IS IN THE BEGINNING OF 2021 | 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!
