Kathleen Black Coaching and Consulting has learned systems that can develop individuals to be top producers and can assist in integrating these systems into your business with great success.  We want to be on the journey with you as you learn how to be the best Individually and learn ways to leverage your time to have greater success either by continuing individually or by reclaiming your time and resources to do more and achieve your short term and long-term goals.

Many of our top success stories started their coaching programs with us as Individual Agents or partners.

Please contact us at admin@kathleenspeaks.com or call us at 1.844.866.5222 in order to set up a complimentary Coaching Consultation with one of our coaches, whether you are an Individual Agent or a Team, we want to learn more about your business and ‘fires’ we can help to put out before we work with you on systems and tools that will help you reach the Vision your Business for the Future.  Once the Consultation is complete we will send an assessment to match you best with one of our Coaches to help guide you in Building your Business.

The Kathleen Black Coaching and Consulting method is about taking the needs of YOUR business and understanding that each Business is different and provide a personalized coaching that works with you to reach your Goals and Vision for the Future.  This approach is used by making sure we understand the Business Plan for your business and creating a roadmap that will allow for taking actionable steps in a systemized manner so that you are able to build the future of your Vision. Working with your professionally trained, real-estate Coach will ensure that you are able to use the methods of Top Producers across North America while still focusing on what makes your business unique.

We have built hundreds of teams and individual businesses to the heights of Top 1% Production levels.

Maybe you should!  Buy, before you do, assess what you need in your career to take it to the next level.  In our experience, hiring, training and coaching agents across North America, checklists are not enough.  You need training and coaching built into those resources!  Ask yourself, how many assistants and employees those agents have to get those results?

We have worked with hundreds of teams to build and many top teams use Kathleen Black Coaching and Consulting Systems as their base across North America.  Check out our success stories here: https://kathleenspeaks.com/about-us/success-stories/

Most important to you is to pick systems that will take you to the next level.  Pick systems that are developed with YOUR best interests in mind – not just systems used by someone else who isn’t ‘walking in your shoes’.  Our systems combine solid business principles and processes with the teaching, knowledge and skills you need to actually make them work! I’ve been fortunate enough to have been a top producer AND have trained other top producers. So, I see this from both sides.

Prior to your first coaching call, you’ll provide us with a Business Assessment. You will get the results of your behavioural profile and values profile (Individual Agent).  With all this information, your coach and you create your game plan, using the appropriate prioritization tools of KBCC and your business planning system.

Together you’ll create:

• A Dynamic, proven lead generating plan or recruiting plan (depending on your individual needs), customized to fit.

• An Action Plan for creating organization, vision, focus, structure and systems to support your business growth.

No.

We do have month to month options available however in order to see results with the Coaching program it will take more than one month to see results and as such we have provided savings and additional resources so that you are able to build your team to your vision quickly.

After one year of coaching we would like to still be a part of the success of your Team and after that time you are able to continue with Coaching on a Month to Month with no increased fees compared to the Month to Month basis.  Should you be interested in discontinuing your coaching we ask for notice 30 days (from your monthly payment date) prior in writing.

There are three sections to every coaching session.

• Past

You and your coach will review the time since your last call, holding you accountable to the action steps that were discussed that you wanted to achieve.  This helps with one of the biggest challenges real estate professionals have: time management

• Present

We will work with the aspects of your business that you have expressed need attention should this include Role-Play, Systemization of Events as well as developing the Consultant’s approach all with the goal of meeting the training foundations you want to master to reach your goals.

• Future

You and your coach will decide on the actionable steps you want to take between coaching calls to accomplish what you want to get done – this keeps you focused on what’s really important to you, another big challenge for real estate professionals.

The first step will be to understand the processes of Top Performing Teams by enrolling in the Elite Business Builder Program https://kathleenspeaks.com/our-services/elite-business-builder/  

This will allow you to develop plans for your vision, so you have direction and focus.

Absolutely! Our coaching program has been created as a major organizational tool. For example, in the first week, we have a process that helps you organize and prioritize your goals. We even help you put them on a timeline, so both you and your coach know how to proceed. We know that this coaching experience needs to be highly organized for you—at the same time, provide great ‘personality’ flexibility.

Of all the real estate coaching programs around today, (and everybody’s calling themselves a coach………), Kathleen’s is the only one actually created as a result of her working with Agents, Team Leaders and Managers in real estate offices—one at a time– for over a decade.  She knows that ‘one size doesn’t fit all’, and she and her coaches work hard to help you create a game plan, vision, and methods that work for YOU.

This work has lead to Kathleen working with hundreds of teams to create Top 1% production nationally.

In the Month to Month Coaching agreement you will have a Personal Consultant (Coach), weekly or bi-weekly development calls with your Consultant, personalized consulting designed specifically for you based on your current needs, open email with your Coach, access to the Monthly Group Webcast, customized resources delivered as topics are implemented and mastered, updates on the latest team development strategies and innovations.

Coaching is based on real life situations.  The things you decide you want to accomplish are those meaningful activities you would do if you were doing your business in the most effective and efficient way possible.  For example. You have lead generating expectations that you and your coach set up each week. Why? So you can meet more people and sell more homes!

Doing the work is your career day – when you are working at optimum performance.

For those of you who feel you are not working at optimum: We’ll help you build successful habits and rituals to replace some the non-productive time you have been spending with productive activities/  You’ll be more focused, more relaxed and accomplish more.

That’s not the way it works. This isn’t a parent-child relationship! Your coach’s job is to support your goals, and help you remove barriers to those goals.

What will happen if you aren’t completing the actions that directly affect your goal attainment? I’ve asked our coaches to be honest with you. We’ll help you assess your progress regularly, and help you make adjustments in your plan. After all, you aren’t going to sing our praises unless you have achieved your goals with us!

We have created specific documents for capturing your action plans for the following weeks. We have created specific documents for recording your goals and your actual accomplishments in all major areas. All you need to do is to use these goal setting and measuring documents with your coach. It’s easy and you really learn where your strengths are.

This is one of the areas that excites us the most! We provide a detailed supporting system to create a recruiting plan, implement it, implement productivity-focused training and coaching—and get everything done faster with measurable results!

Yes! One of the strongest points of our program is that we have the tools that create and provide focus. One of Kathleen Black’s talents is to create analytical tools and sales processes that give you insights into your own strengths and challenges. Her sales processes keep you focused and on track

Too many coaching programs have no ‘game plan’ as a foundation, so you don’t know priorities—you can’t decide which is the right step to take. Kathleen knows that you can’t coach to great performance without a great ‘game plan’; her game plans were created in the real world of real estate sales and management, proven over and over—and used by successful real estate professionals. You deserve a solid foundation, and Kathleen’s programs provide that to you, so you can proceed with confidence toward your goals.

Most agents NEVER get their acts together to create effective processes and presentations for buyers or sellers.  If they do, it takes them years. By investing now, you will perform like a top producer much more quickly. The Ultimate Buyer and Seller Consultations are parts of our Elite Business Builder program, https://kathleenspeaks.com/our-services/elite-business-builder/ as well as trained and role-played through our Coaching sessions, so that it will make sure that you are acting like you’ve been in business for a decade or more.  This also comes with detailed checklists so that you don’t forget something.

As well coaching will give you access to Objection Handling for Buyers and Sellers – why lose transactions because you can’t answer buyers’ and sellers’ objection?  This is the easy way to learn, and develop the Consultant’s Approach that is allowing for Top Teams to improve and set the standard for results in their brokerages.

Our overall strategy is based on what works in real life—and what we know clients are willing to do!  So, we don’t use the dictator approach of “do this now because I said so”! After all, our clients are adults, and we are coaching them, not dictating to them! We also don’t use a limited approach to expanding your business. Instead, we teach you how to prioritize the activities in your business, so you are spending less time, getting more results, and enjoying it more. The strategies we use come from Kathleen’s experience as a top producer, upholding the highest ethics and culture for a quality, sustainable business. We’re not going to teach you unsuccessful methods to cut corners!

Definitely.

Many Top Producing teams see the value of having the time to develop the skills necessary to reach their goals and by doing so in an environment that is built on building the most of their businesses.  By having training that has actionable steps in place and with accountability placed on all team members to success while at the same time allowing you to ensure that time is devoted towards putting plans in your business and making sure that it grows.  

We also provide on-board training for every role on your team.

Absolutely!

If you’re recruiting and selecting new agents, you will want to make sure you are selecting the right new people.  Including the proper way to interview, the best questions to use, and to go into great depth about the selection process of the new agent, so you can select people who are trainable and who will be successful!
