How Joining RE/MAX^® Can Help You Grow Your Network

You know that old saying, “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know?” Well, that’s true. And perhaps it’s most relevant to you as a real estate agent.

Don’t get us wrong – what you know matters. Proper continuing education can help you stay on top of an industry that moves faster than you can say “real estate.”

But who you know can open more and more doors, giving you opportunities for repeat and referral business. Now imagine a company with a worldwide network, one with a presence in over 110 countries and territories. Imagine the networking opportunities you could have at a company like that.

A company like RE/MAX.

A Network of Possibilities

But let’s zoom back in before we talk about the global connections you could forge at RE/MAX. Let’s start at the local level. You’ll build relationships with the other agents at your office (in addition to mortgage specialists and other unique professionals who may work in your local RE/MAX office). You might learn new tricks of the trade, learn tips for handling customers in unique situations or even find a mentor (or become a mentor yourself!).

The more established you become in your community, the more you open to the door to potential repeat and referral business. That’s not just through providing your customers with exceptional service, either; many RE/MAX offices hold community events, donation drives, fundraisers and more to give back to their local neighborhoods. Your participation in these events ingratiate you to your community. Guess who those customers might think of when their friend or family member ask for real estate agent recommendations?

Networking Events You Won’t Forget

Then there’s the matter of the many RE/MAX agents from other offices you can connect with. RE/MAX boasts more than 4,500+ offices worldwide – that’s a lot of possible connections. And you’ll get the chance to mingle with lots of those agents at the many events hosted by RE/MAX throughout the year.

It starts with the R4^® Convention in glitzy Las Vegas, where thousands of agents, top producers and other industry leaders converge each year to share trade secrets, impart valuable insight and more. Mingle with like-minded experts as you discuss the direction of the market, learn how to navigate new trends and bounce ideas off each other. The connections you make at this event can truly change and shape your business.

R4 isn’t your only opportunity to connect with peers and industry leaders. Events like The Ultimate RE/MAX Teams Event, Luxury Forum, Commercial Symposium and Elite Retreat (to name a few) occur throughout the year covering different specialties and opening even more avenues for you to expand your contact list.

Add those to the more local events your office or surrounding RE/MAX offices may host and you’ve got a network that’s ready to grow – all it takes is a, “Hello!”
