My niece had her high school graduation this last weekend. We had all those backyard games going. Volleyball, lawn darts, bocce ball, etc.
I had never played bocce ball but one of Courtney’s friends wanted to play, so we gave it a a go.
I use playing a game as an example of how to treat any new initiative or strategy. I talk with my coaching clients about knowing what you need to know going into the strategy, so you know what to measure and how to know if you are winning or losing.
What Are The Rules Of The Game?
Before you start a game, if its bocce ball or a new strategy like real estate blogging, we need to know the rules of the game.
How do we play?
What is the best way to do this?
What can I do and not do?
What are the rules?
Once you know the rules of the game you can really start to create a winning strategy.
For example, with your real estate blogging strategy wouldn’t it make sense to know how Search Engines work so you can create a strategy that puts you at the top of the search engines. Do you know how Google decides to put websites on Page 1?
How Do You Know If You Won Or Lost?
In games you usually play for a certain amount of time, with the most points at the end of the time winning. Or you play to a certain number of points with the first one achieving the point level winning.
I see real estate agents and business people give up to soon because the haven’t determined how long they will play for and then decide if they win or lose. They quit in the 3rd quarter. There is still time left in the game to win!!!
How long does the game you are playing for last?
Will you try your new strategy for 45 days? 90 days? 6 months?
How will you know you won? Lost?
How will you start measuring your real estate business development, inbound marketing and social media strategies?
How are you going to play to win?

“Have I told you lately that you’re the greatest thing since sliced cheese? And that at least every other day Matt and I tell each other out loud about how grateful we are to have found you?
You’re a true blessing and are helping us like no other coach to make impactful changes within our business, at a pace that makes sense. And you ‘GET’ technology, too! Coach D, you’re a dream come true. “

"We closed 80 transactions in 2009, started coaching with Darin in 2010, and ended the year with 124 closed transactions." - Incorvaia Team
I wanted to start to build a team and with Darin's coaching I have added 2 full
time buyers agents and a virtual assistant. We are getting so organized
and now I am able to prospect for listings like I should have been doing
before.
Darin is a KICK ASS coach, motivator and a genius. Yes, he has a mind that is incredible.
I feel that Darin is vested in my success both personally and professionally. He is a dear friend and I am excited we are now partners.
- Lisa Archer
"Of the 20 years I've spent in real estate, I've never received the type of training and coaching that truly engages my clients in the way that creates results I was looking for. Darin's strategies are simple, powerful, inexpensive & most of all, productive beyond my expectations." - Stacey McVey
“Since coaching with Darin, I got refocused and reconnected to my sphere. In the last 40 days I have made $53,000. Just took two new listings and I’m having fun again in business.” – Kris Cantrell
"I have been working with Darin for 10 weeks now, I was looking for a way to take my business to another level going into my second full year of real estate. I closed 32 deals in 2011 and so far with the help, guidance and motivation I am on pace to double my transactions in 2012. The most exciting part about working with Darin is I am able to increase my production without adding hours to my week, Darin has taught me how to leverage my time and use it more efficiently. If you are serious about taking your real estate career to a new level, it is a MUST to start working with Darin Persinger as soon as you possibly can." - Ryan Shields
I am the owner of a very young company that was growing faster than I was ready for. I had a head FULL of wonderful ideas and I had a vision. I found myself not being able to accomplish many of my goals, due to the lack of focus. I was jumping from one project to another, while completing none of them. I WAS the shiny object chaser. Thanks to Darin, I don't see shiny objects any longer...I have my eye on the one thing that counts...what works for me and what is best for MY company.
I made the commitment to coaching the moment I knew I could trust Darin. I felt like I needed someone that had been in the trenches and continued to educate themselves. I found all of that in Darin. - Elizabeth Cooper-Golden
"Levels is working great! It's really helping me stay very organized and scheduled. I just listed a house today, I'm doing another listing presentation tomorrow, I did showings Sunday and last night. I should be listing another property this week and a possible offer on a property." - Sonia Lyonnais
"In only 8 weeks, I've increased my bottom line by 27%." - Jonathan Rivera aka Real-Tech Guy of Official Real Estate Referral Group
"When this program had started, I had only 4 deals closed for the entire year. Since starting in Levels, I have added 3 listings, wrote 7 offers and will have closed 3 deals." - Rich Ganim
