 Exactly What Every Real Estate Agent Needs to Know in Today's Market August 20, 2008
John Michailidis (Palm Beach, FL)

I waited for this book with great anticipation and was not disappointed when I finally got my hands on a copy -- this is career-changing, paradigm shifting information.
I work as the manager of an 80 agent office in Palm Beach, FL and know first-hand the challenges that agents today are facing. The advice given in this book is the exact same advice I've been preaching for months now, delivered in a concise, action-oriented, laser specific format that covers all of the bases and provides all of the key insights needed by any agent committed to growing their business and prospering in today's market:
* Mindset -- getting your 'head-straight' for today's market environment.
* Expense Management -- leading with revenue in tough times.
* Leverage -- accomplishing more through collaboration with others.
* LEAD GENERATION tactics that work.
* LEAD CONVERSION skills and scripts that get results.
* How to maximize your use of the internet to capture and retain clients.
* PRICING RIGHT so your properties sell faster than your competition's.
* Staging strategies that get your properties sold more quickly.
* Skills and scripts for overcoming you buyer's reluctance.
* The basics of creative financing strategies to get your listings sold.
* Short sale, foreclosure and bank owned property strategies and tactics that work.
* Special advice for seeing your properties through to closing.
As a real estate author myself (The WealthLoop Series Beginner's Guide to Building Wealth Buying Houses: The Foolproof Roadmap to Real Estate Riches Without the Risks and Hassles of Landlording) I realize that the shelves are brimming with real estate books. I can honestly say that given today's real estate market environment, if an agent were only allowed to read one real estate book in the coming two years, THIS would be the book that I would recommend! In fact, we are in the process of implementing a complete twelve week training program for my Palm Beach office that's wholly based on the insights gleaned from this book -- I believe it is that important.
Success is as easy as reading this book! October 5, 2008

SHIFT was fantastic! If you are a real estate agent I'm sure your business has shifted to some degree. If you don't implement these 12 tactics, you may find yourself working in another field, or maybe you already are. It was so refreshing to read a real estate book that is accurate with what is going on! Sounds easy? Well it is. The truth is everyone can do, but not everyone will (quoted from the book). Agents in my office that have implemented these 12 tactics are pulling unbelievable numbers. Our entire training system is now revolving around these 12 tactics and by the way, it's not a spend money book. You can implement these tactics in your business without spending anything. If you are an agent, do yourself a favor, get the book and master it!

Another home run. A very thoughtful, entertaining read. Shift offers specific and insightful methods for growing your business in good or challenging times. Put these techniques in to play in your business and success will be the only by-product.
A must read for ANYONE in business October 4, 2008

Although SHIFT is intended for those in the real estate profession, the 12 tactics and strategies presented are just as applicable to anyone who is in business. The market will always shift, and this book clearly identifies why and then goes the extra mile by providing strategies for real estate professionals to get through this market instead of waiting for the market to change. This should be a must read for anyone even thinking of getting into real estate ... and a must read for those who already are! In a time when just about everyone is nervous about what has happened, this provides some "sense and sensibility" for us to share with the consumer.

Gary Keller is an exceptionally clear and insightful thinker. He does a brilliant job of organizing and presenting material in such a way that his reader can more easily understand it and, of greater importance, then put it to effective use. If you want great information about how to implement proven ideas, this is the book for you! 'Shift' is a road map which could guide and inform the development of real estate agents' careers during trying times. Agents can now push aside fear and transform their businesses!!
