“Don’t wait. The time will never be just right.” – Mark Twain
By the time we wrap up three quarters – nine whole months – it feels like the world simply rushes through October in anticipation of the holiday season, and bypasses the present to start planning the year ahead. While it is prudent to forecast the year ahead for business planning, don’t defer to the future at the expense of the present when it comes to making today count.
There are still postcards and emails to send, calls to make, networking events and client “pop bys” to appear at, and, of course, houses to buy and sell.
Procrastination IS tempting. Then there are those Brokers with the numbers to show that time waits for no one.
Our number one Eagle in the third quarter is Jack Bailey, and the team at Help-U-Sell Greensboro in North Carolina. They have taken the present moment and pushed it to impressive heights. So far, and we have 102 reasons (or sides) for evidence.
In the second place position for Q3: Jeff Hedberg of Help-U-Sell Real Masters in Port Huron, Michigan. Jeff’s team has contributed to a robust Michigan market with 66 sides.
Just five sides behind in third place, we find Debra Schmidt of Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate of Steele County Inc., in Owatonna, Minnesota. Deb’s team show up with 61 sides for our 9 month report.
