One important way to succeed in the business world today is to surround yourself with many successful people! Having mentoring networks at your real estate agency is a great way for agents to become successful.

As an agent, you need to learn from people who can:
- Teach
- Advise
- Motivate
- Direct
- Support
- Coach
- Facilitate
- Advocate
- Access
- Give you guidance
Mentoring Networks Make the Difference as Success Breeds Success
Finding the right mentor may seem like a daunting task to many real estate agents in the industry.
Does this mean you need to search for 10 people who can provide you with all these services? You could try to do that.
The burden of succeeding in finding qualified providers can be both time-consuming and aggravating at the same time. It could result in frustration.
However, there is one simple word that provides a solution to this dilemma. That word is “Mentoring”!
What Are Mentoring Networks?
Mentoring networks are a supportive form of development that helps an individual manage their career and improve and share their skills.
Mentoring will teach you new skills. It will Train you in your career field; Advise you on all the past and current trends in your industry; Motivate you and Direct you on the right path to your success. Mentoring will Support and Coach you toward reaching your goals.
After all, when being new to a business, you can not be expected to be a “know-it-all”. Especially the first day on the job. However, a wise person should know where to find the answers to everything. Therefore, the answer lies with mentors and mentoring networks.
What Does A Good Mentor Do?
It begins with “On the Job Training” or OJT, for short.
A person who has been at their job, or in the same career for a significant amount of time, has experienced hands-on training. They have acquired knowledge, skills, and competence while working.
It’s the most effective way to learn skills and gain experience when working through challenges that are part of their everyday job.
Finding someone with numerous years of OJT experience and a willingness to share it, is both a rarity and a priceless gift. That gift is a MENTOR. Having a mentor during slow real estate periods is the best way to make use of your time.
