Song: Good Good Life
It is hard to believe this verse of my song is coming to an
end. It has been such an honor and a privilege to serve every single member of
the Kansas City Regional Association. Thank you for the opportunity to be your president.
A huge heartfelt kudos to the kick booty staff of KCRAR, thank you for
everything you do every single day for our members! YOU rock this
association! Kipp: thank you for your guidance and inspiration this year,
it has been a pleasure working with you.
As we move into a changing real estate market, I challenge
you to be S.M.A.R.T.
S: Study the Stats – As the market changes, be a real estate
market expert by knowing the statistics for sales in each area you sell.
M: Mentor Someone – I find my best learning opportunities
come from teaching others. Pick a topic you would like to be a master at,
and plan to teach a class. You will learn differently when you learn to
teach rather than learn just to know.
A: Acquire New Skills – Anthony J. D’Angelo is quoted saying
“Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to
grow.” As technology and market changes occur, we need to be even
more addicted to learning and growing.
R: Respect Each Other – This profession is most unique in the
sense that, in most cases, we need our competitors for the other half of our
paycheck. Be kind and respectful to each other; you never know when you
will be working with them again.
T: Trust Your Instincts – Be safe out there. There is
no commission out there that is worth compromising our ethics, safety or
integrity.
Again, it has truly been a pleasure serving as your
president.
Andrea
