Busy-ness VS Business – How To Get Off The Real Estate Rollercoaster

Effective & Consistent Lead Generation is something all real estate agents know they should be doing – yet very few actually create the time to make this the #1 most important activity they start each day with.

From Jake’s Desk: Watching, Reading, Listening to, Working on..

Business is no different.

So here I’d like to provide a peek under the hood and share with you some of what we’re working on right now! […]
