  • How Tami Holmes Real Estate Doubled Their Business by Hiring The Talent Genius


    Tami & Fred Holmes have been using The Talent Genius services for about a year.  They hired numerous agents at the recommendation of The Talent Genius and has it ever paid off.  Fred's said they are on track to double their volume to over $40 million dollars.  Part of the key was elevating the performance of one of their existing agents. 
    Fred says The Talent Genius helped him identify who is right for their team & helped them save a tremendous amount of time by only interviewing the A players. Fred has discovered hiring the right people, with the right attitude is much more important than hiring somebody with a lot of experience. Before they were looking for somebody with great real estate skills.  Now, they have realized that they can train anybody to be a real estate agent, but they can't train them to be a great person. 
    By using a time-tested, scientifically validated set of tools, anyone can eliminate the frustrating, costly guesswork of hiring & replace it with confidence & certainty you are hiring the best people who have the capabilities to deliver the returns you are looking for.
