Why you need to be obsessed with underserved reoccurring customers

Workflow matters, and it’s the answer to some of our biggest industry challenges. I’m not interested in the small self-serving stuff; I’m talking about significant structural reform, that if we get it right we future proof our businesses, have customers that demand to pay more and play to the strengths we don’t even see we have. It’s called the four-dimensional customer, the buyer, the tenant, the landlord and the seller. Too often there are walls between our departments, where we are obsessed by the portion of the work we’re paid to do, rather than the overall experience we provide to the customer.

Buyers or sellers? Here’s how to master both with urgency.

In an expansion market buyers have to act; every three months they wait for properties to rapidly increase in price, in a contractionary market, every three months a seller remains their sale price declines. In a slow-growth market, neither the buyer or the seller are compelled to act financially. To win, you have to be an agent for all markets. The secrets to pipeline progression lay in a simple three-part formula. The client has to have a problem, a timeline and a destination.

Align or die – The reality of why so few companies ever last the test of time

The number one thing leaders need to do in turbulent markets is to reinvest – into people, process and resources. You’ll never cost-cut your way to greatness. To build a great business, you need to be super clear on your operating system.
