Good business as far as I'm concerned.

I worked for countrywide for 3 years from 2011. I started out as a trainee and worked up quite quickly. I was branch manager within a year. At this point I was 24. I took my branch from in the red, to profit in first year and made money the second year. A new regional came in and I was told I wasn't doing enough. I was micro managed by the regional manager and felt like I was being pushed to walk so he could bring in staff from his previous area. For the most of time i was manager I worked from 7.30 until 8-9pm most nights and even worked Saturday and Sundays if it bought business in. I was not only branch manager, but also the only valuer. Not once was I appreciated by this regional manager and eventually I took the plunge stepped down and within a month I was leaving to set up my own agency a few doors down. I had a lot of clients follow me also. I will always be thankful to Countrywide as I am now embarking on opening my second agency. To be a good Estate Agent, you need to give the client what they need and when and meet their expectations everytime. Make them NEVER forget you. Working long hours in this industry is needed, it pays off in the end when you have people working for you. You want that same ethic from them.
