The purpose of the assessment: 

 

In order to provide you with valuable insights, we need to know more about you, your life and your work experiences. This is not a test and there are certainly no right or wrong answers, but your sincerity and openness will help us to effectively evaluate your business, which is unique from anyone else’s. 

 

This is not necessarily the simplest of exercises – in fact most people find it to be quite challenging -- but you are likely to find it to be one of the most rewarding things you have ever done! For maximum effectiveness, it requires a sincere desire on your part and candid, honest reflection about what is most important to you and what you really want from your life and career.

Please take your time contemplating and answering each of the questions. There is no time limit for this exercise; expect to commit at least an hour or so to this task. It is recommended that you go to a quiet place where you will not be interrupted by visitors, phone calls, e-mails, etc.

Next Steps:

As explained above, once you have completed the assessment, Verl will review it and get back to you within two business days.  We can only move forward once you've completed the assessement.  And, just to reiterate, we're not here to sell you anything.  We want to help you understand how to mold your business into a business you really love -- because it's easy and profitable.  There is no pressure or obligation whatsoever...except maybe the inner need you might feel to repay the kindness.

Listen, now is the time to get laser focused, not just in your business, but on your business.   Together we can create a strategy that will continue to pay you even when others are failing.  If you are losing market share, if your numbers are way down and your expenses remain the same as they always were, you could probably use some help.

If you have any questions, now or at anytime, please feel free to Contact Us.

CREATING REAL VALUE BEYOND THE SALE - NEW!

Nike is a strong brand in and of itself, but what happens when you combine the shoes with another top brand, iPod, to create a complete experience for athletes? You become invaluable. It starts with a pair of shoes with a sensor that helps keep track of every step, which then broadcasts and records in your iPod so you can hear pace, time, distance and calories burned. Take it a step further by downloading your results from your iPod into a website that will track your runs and help you set goals and blog with others just like you. It is a loyal community of runners – loyal to running, to achieving their goals and to Nike and iPod for making it possible.

Homeownership is a demanding endeavor and while most Realtors are viewed as experts in homeownership, we tend to limit ourselves to the sales activity itself. It is time to change that, to create real value beyond the sale, so we become central to their homeownership experience by lightening the load, thus demonstrating cooperation, authenticity, and in turn creating loyalty.
