Editorial Reviews

Review

How to Become a Million Dollar Real Estate Agent in Your First Year is a very realistic approach to a wide-open field. The author defines devotion to a profession and lists the steps that translate into spectacular money. This book can keep beginning agents from spinning their wheels and show those already in the business how to make opportunities to succeed. This is the only business where you wake up every morning unemployed and your success is a direct result of how hard you work! Here you will get the advice of one who has succeeded and avoided the mistakes and faults she observed in others. This book will give you the impetus and confidence to approach anyone, help them make investments, get the home of their choice, and enhance their worth, while doing the same for yourself. --Ann Bailen, GRI, ABR; Coldwell Banker

I'm an experienced agent and I loved every minute of this book. It gave me some new ideas and a fresh perspective on how I should operate my business. This is the first book I read from cover to cover in a long time. It's an easy read and it was time well spent. Applying the concepts mentioned in this book will make all the difference in my business.

Slightly helpful, less than insightful, thanks for stating the obvious

Don't expect to learn any secrets of the real estate market that you might never have thought of otherwise. This book provides fairly standard "tried and true" advice on real estate. Here's a succinct synopsis: "Work really, really, really hard. Not just hard, but really, really, really hard. Probably 80 hours a week or more, and you'll do great!". I read "Duct Tape Marketing" and thought it was much better from a creative standpoint.
