DO YOU LOVE WHERE YOU WORK OR LOVE WHAT YOU DO? Let me tell you why I LOVE WORKING AT KELLER WILLIAMS!
About the Keller Williams Lakewood Ranch Office:
I have worked in many small offices during my business career and I can honestly say this office is like no other. I will tell you about my office first and then will explain the Keller Williams philosophy. The Keller Williams Office that I work out of is located in Sarasota just within the Lakewood Ranch Community in the John Cannon building. We have been there since December 2008. Where we are located is a prime area because we are pretty much on the border of Sarasota and Manatee Counties. Because I live and work in this region I feel that Sarasota and Bradenton are one big city! Since we are centrally located it is not hard for my clients to meet me.
It starts with the incredible people I work with…There is a team of three wonderful women that run the daily operations of the office. They go above and beyond the call of duty to help the agents here. Brandon Kekich is the team leader, from Detroit Michigan, with over 20 years of real estate experience. He is responsible for offering training for newer agents and also has training and consultation for experienced agents to help them achieve their desired production level. Brandon is our cheerleader and is without a doubt the best person for the job! Our office also has an amazing Broker that we work under. Paul Cornuke has been in the business since 1979 and has too many credentials and awards to mention. He knows how to run and operate his brokerage and has an unbelievable attitude. With an open door policy he welcomes us all!
The Keller Williams Lakewood Ranch Office is.....
The Keller Williams Lakewood Ranch office is like one big happy family. We not only work together and train together but we also have FUN together! We have hosted charity events recently for Manatee Glens and had a car wash and a bowling event for two deserving children with certain needs. We have office parties at Halloween, Christmas and St. Patrick’s Day. We go to baseball games and meet out here and there.

About Keller Williams Realty:
On a regional and national level, Keller Williams University courses are being held almost every week throughout the year. We offer the most diverse training in the business; whether rookie or mega-agent you can profit from our company philosophy that promotes a learning-based atmosphere. Here is some of what is available to you as a Keller Williams agent--KW University, KW connect – education and technology, MAPS Institute, Millionaire Systems, Red Day, KW Cares, Camp 4:4:3, Lead Generation, Buyers Clinics, Listing Clinic, Quantum Leap, Time Management with the 411, MREA Role Model Video, Team Leader Clinic, Mega Camp, BOLD and Family Reunion (just to name a few).
Roughly 30 agents from my office including myself travelled to New Orleans this year for our yearly Family Reunion for training and networking. The amount of classes that were offered to the Keller Williams agents was unbelievable. The training covered everything from social media and website building to lead generation, team building and profit sharing.
As a new agent, my KW office offered the hand holding and support I needed to get my business started. Coming from Corporate America I had always worked for someone and now I’m running my own business and working for myself. KW offers continuous training. The education never ends and each office has top notch training sessions that are offered weekly. Brandon brings in top trainers from around the country “The Best Teaching the Best”. He recently invited Steve Tufts who is an owner of several KW offices out of Jacksonville, Daytona, and other offices on the east coast of Florida. He discussed how to develop and increase your market share and how to develop your skill set to convert your target market into closed transactions.
I am sharing all of this with you because I work with a company that truly cares for their agents. If you are out there and you are not happy with where your business is going and your brokerage is not providing the support you need, then don’t hesitate to contact me. Or if you have decided to become a REALTOR and you are getting ready to start classes or you have just finished your course work and don’t know where to go, Keller Williams is the place for you! Whether or not you are in my area, I can help connect you to a wonderful Keller Williams office in your backyard! Please let me know if I can assist you in your transition to the best Real Estate company out there!
