About this listen
The single most effective step any real estate agent can take to raise his or her business to higher levels is to work from an effective business plan. Whether new to the business or already a top producer, every agent can benefit from the three parts of an effective plan - establishment of meaningful goals, determination of effective methods, and a means for staying on track. In this book by longtime real estate broker, trainer, mentor, and coach Matt Williams, you will learn why working from a detailed plan is critical to your success and how to create your own personalized plan - a plan that will enable you to live the lifestyle you want.

BUY THIS- An inspiring ,helpful, insightful book!
Would you listen to Planning for Success in Real Estate Sales again? Why?
Yes, because I believe all agents need to be reminded of getting a plan in place.
What did you like best about this story?
Matt Williams has a way that makes it sound so simply clear as to why you truely need to have a business plan in place to map out your success.
Which character – as performed by Matt Williams – was your favorite?
Imagine if your child needed surgery...would you let a doctor tell you they would "wing it" when operating on your child as opposed to having a detailed plan? PERFECT way to send home that message that a plan is so important.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
PLAN IT - LIVE IT!
Any additional comments?
Just so easy to listen to. It's obvious this man has a great deal of knowledge and wants you to plan and think about what you need to do to become successful. Frankly, this doesn't only apply to real estate. So many people just "wing it" as he says. With a plan, you hold yourself accountable and he makes that planning very easy. He breaks it down in a simple, understandable way.

Enough goal setting, lacking systems building
There is enough out there about goal setting. I was hoping this would be more nuts and bolts about actually formulating an actionable business plan.
