A lot of entrepreneurs fail to scale their businesses because they believe the dangerous myths surrounding recruitment and stepping out of production. Is it true that to scale our business we must recruit more agents – and what is the overall cost to our business as a result of this growth? Once we get out of production, is it true that we should be removing ourselves completely from daily operations?
On this episode, CEO of Beer Home Team, Dan Beer shares the 6 myths that hold us back from scaling.
Takeaways + Tactics
- Stop obsessing over agent count. Too many entrepreneurs believe they need to take on a lot of agents to grow. That’s simply not true – or feasible – in the early stages.
- For a business to grow, everyone in the team needs to grow. We have to keep offering team members value as we expand.
- Don’t believe the myth that getting out of production means no more involvement. As leaders, we have to continue leading our teams.
At the start of this episode, we explained why agent count should never be used as a marker for success. We then shared why agents should only be hired after other crucial team members are recruited, and suggested an ideal order to be used when hiring. We also discussed:
- The importance of being good at every aspect of real estate
- Why it’s vital to empower every team member
- That leaders need to stay involved in their businesses- even in tasks others would deem beneath them.
