How many times have you employed someone only to have them leave after discovering the job is not what they thought it would be?
Or you’ve had to let them go when they’re still counter-productive six months down the track?
The number one challenge in the business of real estate is finding and onboarding good people.
It takes precious time and resources to select the right person and train them before they are ready to start listing and achieving the numbers you need.
How can you be sure if a career in real estate sales suits the person you employ?
And once you’ve given them a job, how do you train them to be work ready and dollar-productive so they can hit the ground running on their own?
The answer is training that…
1. Allows the participant to decide if they have what it takes to commit to a career in real estate, and 2. Provides new recruits with the skills to do what you most need them to do from day 1 – generate future business.
ACTIVATE fulfills those objectives while simultaneously catering for existing salespeople as refresher training.
Being self-paced, ACTIVATE will help you with the onboarding process so you can focus on running your business, knowing you are bringing the best people on board.
WHAT IS ACTIVATE?
Proudly supported by realestate.com.au and the REIQ, ACTIVATE is a self-paced digital course designed to kick start a new recruit’s career in real estate sales or reinvigorate an existing sales agent’s numbers.
Created by Australia’s leading real estate trainer and systems designer, Lee Woodward and featuring industry leader, Dane Atherton and other real estate greats, ACTIVATE offers a solid introduction for anyone looking to undertake a successful career in real estate sales.
As a principal, sales manager or team leader, we understand how important it is to have the right people working with you. ACTIVATE will give you peace of mind knowing you have a work ready, fully committed leverage agent on your team, while helping you identify participants who are not suited for the role or your agency.
ACTIVATE can be undertaken at a participant’s own pace. The program takes them through the realistic journey of a new starter, providing a comprehensive insight into what it takes to achieve a sustainable real estate sales career and what is expected of them at a company level.
Focused on the ability to generate future business, the program provides participants with the vital skills and understanding required for successful prospecting, allowing them to hit the ground running with pipeline-generating activity from day one. For existing agents, the lessons learned will refresh their prospecting skills to get them back on track with their numbers.
WHO IS ACTIVATE FOR?

WHAT ABOUT EXPERIENCED SALES AGENTS?
We all know that lead generation is the number one area in which agents fail, no matter how long they’ve been working in real estate.
In fact, in many cases, the longer they’ve been working in the industry the more they neglect their prospecting activities. As a result, their numbers suffer.
Completing ACTIVATE in their own time will remind them why prospecting for future business is the key to meeting their targets and maintaining a fulfilling real estate sales career.
HOW IS ACTIVATE COMPLETED?
As the program is online, all a participant needs is access to the Internet and a login. Being self-paced and flexible, they can complete the program in the office, at home or before they start work with you – whatever works for your business.
Participants can revisit the course (or parts thereof) as many times as they wish.
