Zillow Won't Kill the Real Estate Star
Well, it's finally happened – Zillow has decided to open their own brokerage and have started hiring agents. What Matt and Garrett want you to know is that this is a time to be excited (not freak out), and to view this development as encouragement to shake off any complacency, to take a good look at your business, and to make doubly sure that all your systems are up and running and firing on all cylinders.
They begin by emphasizing the fact that if you are confident in your business, systems, and relationships, you have nothing to fear from big companies or anyone else starting up their own brokerages. They also stress that you need to ensure that you and all in your sphere understand your value and why you do the things you do, and to know your audience and market to them accordingly. Getting creative with your business and keeping up your Ninja systems are cited as keys to ensuring that you have nothing to fear from new brokerages being formed, and that sticking with Matt, Garrett, and the Ninja system will go a long way to ensuring that you control your successful future in the real estate business.
