I was scrolling through reels the other day and I noticed something that, to this day, doesn't sit right with me ❌
And I wanted to share this with you because I want you to understand that it's not right.
I'm all for MOTIVATION & INSPIRATON.
But I draw the line at false promises.
The problem I have with our industry is, TOO MANY AGENTS run around here, trying to recruit other people by making promises of 'having financial abundance'... and you're left with groups of agents who believe that joining an agency will fix all their financial problems... This is just not true.
Don't get me wrong...
It's totally ok to build a team
But if you lack any real skills, you have to ask yourself the logic of doing it in the order you are told to (Become an agent, then recruit more people)
You have to question...
👉🏼How does it make sense if you have little to no skills to begin with?
👉🏼What value can you actually transfer over to new agents?
This is when we tarnish a lot of our credibility and reputation and moral authority in an industry that's rifled with MLM culture
This is why the turnover rate is so damn high in the industry.
Why? Because no one is teaching agents how to create a sustainable and successful business.
No one's teaching agents the proper skill-sets and the hundred or more micro skill-sets that are required to be successful in business
Yes, you CAN be very successful in the financial world. But simply becoming an agent isn't enough.
There's A LOT MORE TO IT than just being an agent and being part of an agency.
It's really simple.
You can't expect a driver who just got his license a month ago, to be an F1 PRO DRIVER tomorrow.
It takes comprehensive training to master the skill to be a PROFESSIONAL F1 DRIVER
The same goes for our industry.
You can't earn a 6-figure income with 5-figure skills.
As the saying goes
Nothing good in life comes easy.
So I wish these so-called 'mentors' would stop promising the idea of "easy money" in this industry.
If anything, the first thing you should be learning as an agent is HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS - But that it is POSSIBLE if you know exactly what to do to master the skills that will get you there.
I hope this is something we can all learn from 💯
Have a great start to the week guys!!!
COMMENT YES IF YOU'RE HERE TO END THIS YEAR STRONG!!!
