Since joining RER Network in 2006 our business has not looked back going from strength to strength each year. The key driver for this success apart from the amazing training and coaching we get from Michael has been the commitment we made as a team to make Network Membership work for us. By utilising the training schedules from KickStart in Feb right through the year to Getting Set in Dec it means we are always on our game and ahead of the competition. We are in such rapidly changing times that it is critical in business today to ensure you are armed with all the options in your tool kit and Michael, Shane and the team certainly deliver on that. So to enjoy the benefits of being associated with 45 of some of the top agencies in Australia provides us with not only with the best connections but also with Agents who are willing to share their secrets. There is simply no other Network like it in Australia and being a Member is an opportunity to take that next step in business growth and success.

Growing a business consistently at 30% doesn’t happen by chance. We have been fortunate to have Michael as our coach and be a part of RER Network for 7 years now and without him and the chance to draw from an incredible pool of talented principles in the RER Network we would not be anywhere near where we are today!”

RER Network represents a different kind of NetworkOur Principals are some of the most progressive in the country – leading the way with innovative business systems and setting a new standard for the profession.

Our Agents are some of the best achieving and most respected across the country - reaching milestones, bettering their personal bests, becoming stand out agents in their market place, and doing so with integrity and heart.

Most importantly (to us) is that our Members genuinely love being a part of our Network – they are our raving fans – they see us as partners in their business. At the end of the day, their success is our success and as a team we are constantly looking to improve their experience, their results and their success.

We are proud of our Members and the results they achieve everyday, and whilst we have big plans of expanding the Network and making a difference to many more independent agencies our true focus is on our Members. And we love it….

We are one of a kind. There is no other Network like ours, and we are proud of that.

Marcia PatersonJUST PATERSON REAL ESTATE

We love the Network! There is so much to be gained from the incredibly open sharing of ideas in all aspects of our real estate business. Being in non competing markets allows members to share unreservedly what’s working, what’s not, new ideas, innovations etc with no need to re invent the wheel. Strategies can be implemented immediately with tweaks for our own business and market place and we get a kick out seeing our ideas used across the ditch. The friendships and “networking” opportunities alone are fantastic but combined with Michael’s energy, enthusiasm and incredible knowledge I would absolutely recommend the Network!”

The Core Elements of Network Membership

Leadership Development & Business Planning

Your business will never outperform your leadership. When you become a Member you’ll gain access to the Leadership Development Programs as well as the online KnowledgeBase with a range of resources to enhance your leadership skills.

This program is designed for you to network with fellow Members as well as evolve your leadership skills to a whole new level. When you evolve, your business will go along for the ride.

One example of this is the Principal Bootcamp, where for two days you’ll work alongside Michael Sheargold together with a small group of like-minded Principals from Australia and New Zealand who also have the drive to achieve better results in their business and life.

This workshop is conducted on the Gold Coast or Sydney and is your chance to step away from the day-to-day and really look at where you are and importantly, where you want to go as an agency. You’ll clarify your vision for the future, identify your biggest opportunities for growth and develop a Growth Plan for your business.

Team Development

Our goal here is to help you and your team get smarter, faster – in such a way that you’ll lead the field in the strategies and tactics for market leadership.

Few in house training programs really deliver what Agents need to be massively successful. With RER Network we change that for you.

While variety is the spice of life, when it comes to a highly successful real estate business, developing a consistent platform of high quality training and coaching is a key for sustained growth.

Damien O’Shannessy BENDIGO REAL ESTATE

Being the Owner and salesperson of a real estate office with 20 on the team can sometimes be quite challenging. RER Network gives us the tools to cope with both the day to day issues that arise and long term business planning goals and management tools. Also being a country agent, the Network has mechanisms in place designed specifically to assist rural agencies that find it difficult to travel to capital cities for team training so we still get all the benefits. We find this is fantastic for time management, productivity and team moral.

It’s great to meet, liaise, learn and grow with non-competing agents from around the country, so there is good camaraderie and benchmarking as a bonus so you can track performance. Put simply, since joining RER Network turnover and profit have increased.

The old way of “hit and miss” training where Agents and Principals try to sort through what might add value is extremely costly in both time and money.

Many hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars per year are wasted in ineffective training. This often leads to a team not motivated to learn.

With RER Network on your team, you’ll benefit from a model of learning and development that builds on prior knowledge and appeals to the different levels of skills and performance.

The advanced training and coaching programs are designed to support you delivering to your team the skills, strategies, dialogue and mindset to have them winning much more business.

Add to this our focus to help you recruit and retain great people and your business will develop faster towards your goals.

Systems & Resources

You’ll quickly discover at RER Network we live by… “If it’s worth doing again, create a system for it.” So you’ll benefit from leading edge systems all designed to streamline your business and have you and your team operating more efficiently.

All systems have been tested and proven in high performing agencies. So you gain the benefit without the development time and hassle. We call this “Plug and Play” systems. Rather than building every new idea or system from the ground up, you’ll be able to “grab” a system from the Network and then simply customise it for your market place.

Importantly, the online KnowledgeBase takes coaching support to a whole new level with a powerful search capability. This provides to you

Our business has gone from strength to strength since joining RER Network. I believe the training provided to our team, and the support and networking opportunities provided to us as principals, has been instrumental in our growth. Due to the calibre of the agents within the Network, we are constantly challenged to be at the top of our game…to improve…and to implement!

and your team “just in time” coaching along with standard letters and forms that will have your team well on the way to even greater results.

This KnowledgeBase provides a new level of access to what you want and when you want it – you’ll simply enter the keyword or topic and up will come a list of resources to help on that topic.

All of this is designed to radically increase your speed to market in a positive way.

Brand & Marketing

If you’re a progressive Principal, you already know the importance of your brand. You’ve invested years and many thousands of dollars creating a strong position in your market.

So our goal is to help you make your brand even stronger in your marketplace. A simple but powerful concept is building a Community Brand Integration Model where over time, your brand becomes known as the agency of choice in your market.

Once appointed as a Member, you’ll have access to a Public Relations strategy along with the rights to use Real Estate Results Network Member logo to further differentiate and support you market position.

One of the first projects after joining the Network is a detailed Brand Review. We look at the Market Position you want to own and then see how your brand and marketing collateral supports that position.

Add to this the annual Marketing Showcase where every Member showcases their marketing materials. Because the Network is based in sharing openly, you’ll be able to pick and choose ideas that will take your brand and marketing even further.

Recognition & Awards

Being able to recognise your team members effectively is an important aspect of retaining great people. The Network supports you by delivering a range of targeted recognition and rewards programs.

When it comes to real estate coaching in Australia – Michael sets the bar. Over the last 16 years that Michael has coached our group he has, year in and year out, been acknowledged by our Company for the clarity that he has created through our entire team – not only from the Directors – but from the sales and property management teams. Michael has been instrumental in our groups achievements and success – which has positioned Marshall White to where it is today. Michael has been coaching and mentoring us through the good and bad time – he has empathy with each and everyone within our organization – Michael’s contribution has been invaluable and immeasurable to all of us. Michael’s leadership, passion and dedication to the success of our people – and their standard of service – makes him not only an amazing real estate coach, but one of the most successful all round coaches in Australia!

Recognition programs include Results Accredited Agent designation for your agents, The Performance Recognition Levels as well as The Total Volume Sales Club (which is the total properties sold in an agent’s career).

We then add to this an Award system that includes quarterly performance per state in Australia and in New Zealand for agents.

Annually the ARERA’s (Australasian Real Estate Results Awards) is the night of nights for the Network where outstanding performances are acknowledged for the previous year.

All the awards and recognition programs are designed to further support your team and your agency as a leader in your market.

Exclusive Marketing Area & Networking

A key element to Network Membership is knowing you have exclusive rights in your specific marketplace. This means in your Primary Marketing Area no other competitor can gain access to Real Estate Results Network. As you integrate Network strategies powerfully into your point of difference, you’ll have yet another unique benefit to building your business.

Being in business can be a lonely place. Knowing how you’re tracking and who to turn to for advice and support can be difficult. As a Member of Real Estate Results Network, you’ll be joining a Productivity Club. Each club consists of up to 7 agencies and is a chance to work on your business. This helps you identify where you’re strong and importantly what will give your agency the biggest lift in performance. Through the Productivity Club you’ll do a Business Performance Review on a six monthly basis.

High-quality networking further enhances this with like-minded real estate professionals. Networking occurs for both Principals and Team members through events, online webinars and “connecting” Members together to build on the success platform you’ve built for your business.
