Good friend of the program, Mike Holzheimer joins us from Valuation Review and October Research to talk about the new Voice of the Appraiser survey for 2023.

Dustin shares two, non-appraisal, stories of bad customer service and what we should learn from them.

Many think if you pay a percentage of the appraisal fee, you must only do so through an independent contractor agreement. Not true. Dustin shares how to do it with regular W2 Employees and some hurdles to watch out for.

It has been just over a year now, and Dustin reports on his daily practice of TM. Is he still doing it? Is it still beneficial to the stressful life of an appraiser?

Do you set up a corporation, an LLC, or a sole proprietary company? It is an excellent question and The Coach has some advice.

So maybe it isn't a real word, but it is a true principle. The difference between success and failure is the ability to stick to a task till it is done.

With less volume comes more time on your hands. Some appraisers are using that time to attack others. Dustin gives a better solution to how you might spend your extra time.

A simple concept, but how can you make this apply to real estate appraisal? How do you increase your volume and revenue by creating great offers for your potential clients?

It happens all the time; you get a call from a lender you did not do a report for, but they want to talk to you or get a revision on a report they are in possession of. Can you talk to them? Tim Andersen answers it as well as can you change an original report instead of doing a final?

There is a difference between having a job and owning a business. There is one key indicator to know the difference.
