The world of real estate has changed dramatically for consumers, real estate professionals and brokerages. New technology and new business models are changing the way properties are marketed, how buyers find information and how consumers make decisions. The life of the real estate agent has become more complex and the demands on your time have increased dramatically. That is why we are redefining the real estate experience to help our agents build predictable, repeatable and scalable businesses that can be transitioned to family members or sold in the future. Change presents opportunity and our agents are taking advantage! Our agent-centric approach starts by helping you understand your WHY. Understanding your WHY drives you and motivates you to achieve greater success. We believe in Miracle Mornings to start every day with the right mindset. A positive mindset is one of the keys to success in business and in life. We believe that you can work smarter with a better business strategy and execution plan. Our company is an industry leader in innovation and has established a consistent track record of agent success. 71% of our 2019 Elite Sales Associate award winners had a better year than the prior year. We invest in you to provide innovative technology, impact activities to generate more appointments, sales skills training from the best coaches, goal tracking for accountability and marketing & administrative resources so you can focus on your clients. In early 2020, we launched our new MoxiEngage CRM and MoxiPresent CMA solutions. The MoxiEngage CRM was built for real estate agents and can help you dominate your local market. MoxiPresent is the leading CMA and online presentation platform proven to help agents close over 43% more business. Our SOAR new agent coaching program has helped participants achieve 5X the results of agents who did not participate in the program. This year, we are launching our new ELEVATE coaching program for SOAR graduates and other associates who want more encouragement and accountability. We will also continue our strategic partnership with the Tom Ferry organization – the #1 real estate coaching and training organization in the world. We are very intentional about helping you build a sustainable real estate business. At the same time, we work hard to have fun and maintain a family culture. Our associates, employees and partners are our business family. We live, work and play together every day. We have exceptional local brokers who would be happy to share additional details and discuss your specific situation. Now may be the right time to make your move and take your business to the next level.

Success Starts With Strategy TA K E YO U R B U S I N E S S T O T H E N E X T L E V E L Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Georgia Properties can help you develop the right approach to take your business to the next level! Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices has the resources to bring a new level of quality and innovation to real estate. We understand that every market and every situation is different. Industry surveys prove that most real estate agents do not really have a strategy and plan. Those who do have a business plan typically focus on how much they want to sell or the commissions they want to earn. Our Advanced Agent Business System first helps you FOCUS on “WHY” you are in real estate. Then we FOCUS on “HOW” you can achieve your goals. Strategy is important to help you work smarter and execution is the real magic to help you achieve your goals. Our coaching and training can inform you, inspire you and help you stay accountable. Together, we can help you build a predictable, repeatable and scalable business that can eventually be transitioned to family member or sold. Our innovation teams are continuously researching the latest “best practices” from real estate and other relevant industries to give you the competitive edge. For example, the new MoxiEngage CRM has proven to increase closed transactions by 53%. The MoxiPresent CMA and online presentation solution is the best in the industry. We are building the future of real estate with agents and teams that can dominate their local markets!
