Real Estate Success and Support with Kristin Brindley

Providing an Environment In Which People Want To Stay In with Kay Houghton
It's a two-way street when it comes to forming a team. On the one hand, your employees promise to bring their expertise and knowledge to carry the business forward. Employers, on the other side, offer to reward them for what they do.

Yet there's so much more to this two-way street.

Setting a team up for success boils down to how you best support people mentally, creatively, and physically. It's not as complicated as it can appear—even the simple acts will help build a productive work atmosphere and make employees feel respected and valued members of the team.

In this episode of Real Estate Success and Support, let's get to the bottom of how Kay Houghton achieved success by providing an environment in which people want to stay. Believe it or not, this strategy made Kay a rising star that shines brightly with $ 55,000,000 in sales.

Key takeaways covered in the episode:

• Have earmarks of Kay's story of how she had a very financially tumultuous childhood that motivated her to attain financial stability at a very young age.
  
• Take as a role model how Kay achieved success in real estate by seeing the opportunity for growth in starting a business that employs people and building lucrative wealth for people.
  
• Resonate with Kay's vision to somehow influence the industry when it does come to benefits. She sees a transition from being an independent contractor to someone who doesn't worry about where the next paycheck is coming from—not worrying about the ups and downs, weathering the economy's storm, and not having affordable health care.
  
• Be reminded that one tragedy can completely wipe out a lifetime of hard work. So if you want to make real estate your career, it has to be a business. After all, real estate is something that is so much more stable.
  
• Understand that the definition of success changes on a day-to-day basis. Thus, it would be best to continuously try to improve and approach life with genuine passion, curiosity, and non-ulterior motives.
