A Seat at the Table: How to Level Up and Become a Real Estate Thought Leader w/Sarah Ware

The beauty of real estate is that there are so many arenas we can go into. The deeper we go in a niche, the more advantages we gain. One key area a lot of us don’t tap into enough is the policy side of things.

 

By getting involved in various organizations, we get to learn the inner workings of our industry and become thought leaders. As agents, we have access to so much data, and we can use it to bring value to our markets.

 

Why is it so important to volunteer and learn the policy side of our businesses? How do we polish up our businesses and branding?

 

In this episode, I’m joined by coach, consultant, speaker and Principal at Ware Realty Group, Sarah Ware. She shares all the powerful lessons she’s learned from getting more involved in various organizations, and how she’s using them in her business.

 

You always want to be in the mindset of reaching for something bigger than what you are. -Sarah Ware
