Principal/Broker-Owner Education: Adjusting Your Operations
Adjusting to new ways of doing business requires your attention. It is our goal to help you understand, anticipate, and think through the necessary steps. We have created a series of webinars exclusively for brokerage owners and principals to help you implement an updated business model.
New courses are continually released in the Institute, providing timely and ongoing education with subject matter experts for leadership and your agents. The "Buyer Representation Courses" section on your Institute homepage is a great place to start.

Agent Training and Ongoing Education with Subject Matter Experts
As consumers are increasingly exposed to messages about buyer representation, it’s critical to provide your agents with ongoing training so that they can address questions with accuracy. Up-to-date information is critical, necessitating the need for ongoing training.
LeadingRE’s webinar series with Chief Legal Officer Jessica Edgerton and our Economic Insights webinar series with LeadingRE Chief Economist Dr. Marci Rossell will keep your agents abreast of the current landscape and new developments. Incorporate these webinars in your agent training.

Social Media and Website Messaging
Social Media
In the current environment, it’s critical that consumer messaging via marketing materials and social media is carefully crafted. Utilizing customer testimonials to convey the value your agents provide, along with problems and challenges met, can be an effective approach during this time when compensation is challenged. It’s also equally important that your consumer messaging is accurate and does not conflict with presenting the value you provide. Preparing a list of Do’s and Don’ts for your agents to follow can help avoid any missteps.
Website Messaging
Review the messaging on your website. Does it articulate the value of working with your brokerage and the integral role your agents play in the homebuying process? Or does the content focus on “finding a home” as the key component of your value? A review and refresh of your content might be necessary.
