JOIN THE TEAM
Regardless if you are a new agent or have been in the business for many years, there are a number of reasons why you would want to consider joining a Real Estate Team.
Here’s why you should consider The Bandimere Team.
1. As a New Agent
As a new Real Estate agent, you are entering a profession where everything is new. You’re now in a profession that is 100% commission. You may have always worked at a job that has paid you for your hours worked. That no longer is the case. It’s a whole new perspective and mindset.
Immediately, you are surrounded by experience. You’ve been taken under the wings of people that have done it. That knows what it’s like to be new in the business.
Immediately, you’ll have support, whether it’s administrative, expertise, knowledge, or potential coverage when you are unavailable. Immediately, you can say “My partner will be with me all through this process, you can be assured you will be in good hands.”
This gives you credibility right away.

2. Learning and Networking From Your Peers
No matter how long you’ve been in the business, it never stays the same and you are forever looking for more business. That can be overwhelming to most.
The desire to grow and be better no matter where you are in life is a trait that will help you immensely. So surrounding yourself with people that are constantly pursuing growth is essential. It is also a trait that can be learned as we will talk about later under; “Raising Your Thermostat”.
Collaboration is created within a good team atmosphere. You’ll have the opportunity to collaborate and add to the Team’s Energy. “Energy is Everything”. A good team Energy can literally carry you and lift you up when you are down, congratulate you when you’ve succeeded and also “Your Positive Energy” can add to other team members.
3. Combine Your Marketing Power
As a new agent, it can be difficult to establish yourself. But working with a reputable team like The Bandimere Team within a reputable brokerage like Keller Williams Classic Realty can get your foot in the door.
Working with a team means that you can grow your business faster because you don’t have to deal with every aspect of the business like Marketing. You can simply enhance it.
You will be able to take advantage of the whole team's marketing, including, social media efforts, door-to-door sales efforts, networking and engaging with the community with The Bandimere Team’s events.
Marketing is exponential. Once you hit a certain amount of growth, your marketing takes on a life of itself. Teaming up with The Bandimere Team and their Marketing Division can make that happen sooner rather than later.
4. Easier to Budget Expenses and Run Your Business
When you have your own business, there are a number of expenses to consider. From Marketing, Lead Generation, Office Space, Office Expenses, Technology, Payroll and more. Within each one of these categories comes numerous decisions; add the expense, renew the expense, cut the expense, improve on what we are investing into and evaluate return on investments.
When you join The Bandimere Team, all these expenses are covered which allows you to keep your expenses very low. This also avoids the necessity of having expenses in months that you may not have any income which happens in the business of sales.
You see, even though you are on a team, you still have your own business and you will still have some expenses outside of what the team covers. You will be an Independent Contractor with your business inside of a business and the team is a business inside of the brokerage.
When you are on a team, you won’t have the responsibility of hiring and managing employees. The support that would typically require you to hire (administrative, marketing, etc) is already built into the team structure. All this narrows down what you have to do and worry about. This will avoid distractions and allow you to focus on sales which is what makes you money.
5. Raising Your Thermostat
What does raising your thermostat mean?
Simply it’s: “Thinking Bigger”.
You very likely have a limit on how much you think you can make per hour or per year. All our thermostats are set based on what we have experienced thus far in life and who we’ve surrounded ourselves with. Our goal is to help raise your thermostat and achieve more.
Now on the flip side, I’ve seen people that think they can make an enormous amount of money selling homes, until they get into the business and realize it isn’t as easy as it appears. Did you know that about 20% of all the Realtors do about 80% of the business? That means that 20% of the Realtors make a sufficient to above sufficient amount of income. The rest don’t. Hard to believe, right?
So needless to say, you need the right mindset to be successful in this business. You need to believe in yourself and have a clear vision of what you are working towards.

6. Your Goals Are Our Goals
The Bandimere Team creates an environment big enough to encompass everyone on the team's goals. We first focus on your goals and when we add everyone’s goals together, we obtain the Team's Goals.
Along with focusing on your goals and helping you achieve them, we talk heavily about Financial Freedom.
- What do your 3 Year, 5 Year, and Someday Goals look like
- How are you incorporating Passive Rental Income into your Financial Portfolio
- How to retire with a minimum of 6 Income Sources
Maybe your Goals are around traveling more or making sure you don’t miss your kids' games and their precious years. You can’t turn back the clock. We can work with you to incorporate a business plan that has more set hours and not a 24/7 job that Real Estate sales can become.
7. Specialize in the Area of Real Estate You Desire
Regardless if you want to focus on being an inside sales agent, a licensed administrative assistant, a showing agent, a buyers specialist, a listing specialist or maybe do more than one. You’ll have that opportunity while being on The Bandimere Team.
Have your specialty inside a team as the rest of the team focuses on other things that will enhance your specialty. The Bandimere Team can help in your ability to focus on what you do best.
You’ll have extensive leverage as you surround yourself with talented individuals like the “best in the business” transaction coordinator, our Marketing Department, the Leadership Team or our experienced sales division on the Bandimere Team.
8. Creating a Steadfast Mindset
You are in Sales and thus you are considered a Salesperson. A Salesperson should not be perceived by you as a sleazy professional. You are helping people make decisions and you need them to think from multiple angles and scenarios to get through what often can be one of the most stressful things they do in their lifetime.
When helping clients, you don’t have to be fast to answer questions, in fact, it’s best you make sure you get them the correct answer or connect them with the right people. People don’t want fast answers, they want correct ones.
Every business has numerous tasks and job responsibilities. How many businesses do you know that one person does everything? Very few. Who do you know that goes to work and is responsible for 100% of the tasks within a business? Very few. Yet a Single Agent with no administrative help does just that. Everything from A-Z. Nobody is good at everything. So we focus on what we are good at and hire out what we aren’t good at.
Being on a successful team like The Bandimere Team, you can learn how to leverage, learn how to focus on your top 20% of activities and learn that success comes from who you surround yourself with.
9. Just Starting Out But Don’t Want To Quit Your Job?
You want to get into Real Estate but the risk is too big than you can take on while supporting your household. Many people do start Real Estate in a part time capacity and move into a full time position when they have their business up and running and enough reserves set aside.
While every job out there has its own difficulties and hours, it is a completely different scenario to go from a guaranteed pay check to a full time Real Estate profession. Believe me, you will feel the pressure. Some work well under that and others crumble.
While working your current job, you could be pursuing a career in Real Estate.
The only way we can help you decide if this is an option is by meeting and learning how The Bandimere Team’s TIER program is designed for someone just like you. This opportunity is rare and no two scenarios are alike. The main thing we want to emphasize is WHO you surround yourselves with is huge in this dual profession. Joining the wrong team can become a dead end and you’ll never know what could have been.

Want to work less? Thinking of Retiring? Seeking another Profession? Maybe you want just more time off?
Don’t let those potential sales just slip away. You’ll still meet people who need to sell or buy Real Estate. In fact, it may even come to you more freely because it’s not so necessary.
Let’s work together to accomplish your next chapter and allow your efforts, time, and money vested to reap a continued return. Don’t make your last purchase agreement be your career's last paycheck. Click “Here” for more information about our Golden Handoff Program.
