For many of us, social
distancing has meant an unexpected adjustment to working from home and finding
a way to do that effectively with very little notice. Fortunately, we already
have quite a few Coldwell Banker colleagues who are 100% home-based, and many
more who are partial home-based employees. We know home!
Below are the top tips on how
these individuals found success working from home, from scheduling their
workdays to finding the perfect work-life balance.
Tips on Maintaining a Positive Mindset. One of the gifts we have been given as a result of Covid-19 situation is time. Time to finish a project, time to invest in our personal relationships and time to grow both personally and professionally.
Focus on what you can control There are always going to be things in our daily lives that we cannot control, so it is important to focus on the things you can. If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, refer to the chart below.
Start a gratitude Journal There are scientifically proven benefits to incorporating a daily gratitude practice. If this is not something you are accustomed to doing, now is a perfect time to start. All you need is a pen and a notebook! While you enjoy your morning coffee or tea, ask yourself the following, and write down three answers.
“I am so happy and grateful for/that…”
“Yesterday I was most proud of/that…”
These helpful tips were compiled by Brian Krueger, Senior Vice President of Strategic Services, Coldwell Banker Premier Realty.

Mastermind with the Master is a new series where
top-performing Coldwell Banker Premier Realty agents share their knowledge. The
mastermind class in conjunction with our sales meetings ensures that our agents
are receiving a variety of educational strategies that they can implement
immediately to grow their businesses.
This blog post is a summary from our latest mastermind class
with top-producing sales professional, Britney Gaitan. Britney shared how she
built her network and a schedule for success.
Retrain your brain
Britney emphasized that mindset and
consistency should be a part of your business plan. “If you’re tired of
inconsistent income, retrain your brain to put your best foot forward.” Do this
by making small daily changes to build yourself up. This includes role-playing
every day, dressing intentionally for success, and identifying your purpose.
What gets scheduled gets done
Britney’s advice for new agents is to arrive at the office at the same time every day, whether you have appointments or not, to build discipline and consistency. Implement a routine that minimizes distractions and stay on schedule. Britney’s daily routine starts with coffee and time for herself in the morning. This is when she makes phone calls and listens to motivational podcasts. Once she gets to the office she does accountability training, lead follow-ups, negotiations and she schedules all listing appointments for the afternoon. Her daily goal is to make 14 contacts per day.
Your vibe attracts your tribe
This business is about building relationships and the
best way to do that is to find your people! Get out and network. Have your name
badge and business cards on you everywhere you go! Be yourself and start
genuine conversations with people, not for the possibility of a sale, but to
make a new friend. These are the people that will bring you business in the
future. And finally, evaluate those around you. If you are currently surrounded
with unproductive and negative energy, make some changes.

This blog post, Sky Rocket Your Real Estate Career, is a summary from our latest mastermind class with Necia Bunnell. Necia shared how she went from working three jobs to having a successful real estate business.
Be Yourself
Everyone has people they look up to in their industry but you cannot compare yourself to others. Take note of what others are doing but have confidence in yourself and what makes you special. Everyone has their own life experiences from which to draw and you will attract people who want to work with you for those reasons. For Necia, it was her ethic of hard work which she learned from her father growing up on a dairy farm in Utah.
2. Mindset Matters
Real estate can be a tough industry at any stage of your career. Necia worked two other jobs while still devoting 20-30 hours a week to building her real estate business. In whatever spare time she had, Necia would (and still does) take time for self-improvement by reading books like “The Answer” by John Assaraf and “Zero Resistance Selling” by Maxwell Maltz. Necia is a firm believer that when you better yourself first, you are more equipped to take care of others.
Having the right mindset also means you learn from your mistakes or hardships by falling forward. Necia recounted many instances where something did not go her way. She was fired from her first buyer after not being able to find her the perfect home and lost her first listing because she was unable to get back to a client in time. In both of these instances, she knew it was important to pick herself back up and implement better practices going forward. It was having this mindset that allowed her to eventually quit her other jobs and thrive on real estate full time.
3. Try Everything Once
There is no right way to grow your business, so Necia’s advice is to implement mass imperfect action. What does that mean? It means not waiting until you think something is perfect to implement it.
Try everything you can so you can and measure the results. Once you know something works, practice and repetition will polish your performance. With the help of the Coldwell Banker Premier Realty’s marketing team, Necia found many channels that worked to grow her business, including absentee owner campaigns and utilizing programs offered to position you as a neighborhood specialist. If something doesn’t work, at least you tried!
