Thinking about a career in San Diego real estate sales?
Email me today for a private San Diego real estate career consultation.
Today, I want to discuss the importance of delegating responsibilities in your business.
As real estate agents, it can be hard to delegate the workload to others because we feel we are the best at what we do. At Keller Williams, we know that there are 196 things you need to do in each and every transaction, but only 5 of them get you paid! Obviously, this means delegating is the best way for you to focus in on the dollar-producing activities!
Most agents hand something off to their assistant and circle back to them later to see if it got done. If the task didn't get done, rather than equipping that person with skills to get it finished, most agents will try to finish the task themselves. These agents then task-switch and find something else for the assistant to do. The problem with this process, or lack of process, is its massive inefficiency.
It's your job to be more passionate
about not taking the work back and empowering your assistant to get the job done! The goal is to let that person fail forward long enough to accomplish the task and get it to completion. While this can sometimes result in minor problems or bumps in the road, allowing them to experience the ups and downs of the job without interference will help them improve. The better your assistant is at getting these tasks done, the more time you have to do what you do best!
If you would like to see the five things that you should be doing as an agent, click here. If you have any questions, I'm always available via phone or email. I would love to hear from you soon!
