Are You Wondering Which Brokerage Firm is Right for You?
The brokerage you choose to work with can have a significant impact on your career satisfaction…and the money you take home at the end of the week. Signing on with the wrong brokerage can be stressful…and hazardous to your financial health.
Imagine what it would be like to feel happy going to work every day. And imagine the pride you’ll feel making the kind of money you deserve.
Unfortunately, many people don’t get to experience those feelings because they ask the wrong questions when they interview brokers. Most people focus too much on commissions. They want to know what % of commissions they get to keep on deals, and how much they need to share with their broker. Don’t get us wrong. It’s a good question. You want to know your being treated fairly. But the reality is that a good commission structure won’t make you successful.
The most successful REALTORS® have one thing in common…they look forward to going into the office and seeing their colleagues. Put another way, they “fit in” with the culture of the firm. By fitting in, we mean you get to be yourself, whatever that may look like. Some brokerages want everyone to fit into a certain mold. And that’s fine. At Provincial, we believe that there are lots of good brokerage firms to choose from. Its your job to find the culture that suits you best so you can achieve financial goals.
At Provincial, our culture is a unique. We encourage each one of our team members to be themselves, whatever that happens to look like. We’re a diverse group of people, and we celebrate that diversity. We have full time REALTORS® and part time REALTORS®. We have small business owners and entrepreneurs. For some, real estate is a side hustle. For others, they live it and breathe it 24/7. Some attend every training program we put on. Others never attend. At that’s all just fine by us. The one thing all of our REALTORS® have in common is their high ethical standards, their passion for real estate, and their authenticity. And that’s what important to us. We don’t try to put our REALTORS® into a personality box. Instead we build the box around them because we believe that clients are ultimately looking for someone they can relate to. It’s about authenticity, not trying to model the look of someone else in an attempt to be successful.
At Provincial, we believe that achieving your financial goals starts with being able to be yourself, and fitting into the culture of your brokerage. You’re happier, because your being yourself. And clients can sense that and are attracted to that.
If you’re looking for a place that you can call truly call home, reach out for a confidential chat. We’ll keep the meeting completely confidential so you won’t hear about it at the local coffee shop. You’ll get a chance to learn more about Provincial, our culture and whether there is a good fit between you and us. And if there isn’t, that’s fine. No hard feelings either way. And if it’s a good fit we’ll walk you through our Marketing Kickstart Package. It has a value of $5,000 and is our gift to our new team members to help them kickstart their careers at Provincial.
Oh, and you’ll also get a chance to learn about our commission structure (which, spoiler alert, is one of the most competitive in the market).
