Free, virtual session: What Elite Real Estate Teams Do Differently That You Can Do Today with Barry Jenkins: https://tinyurl.com/barrycoaching

Before Mike Schumm coached, consulted, and partnered with many of the top teams in the real estate industry, he built 10 small businesses - from meat packing to property management to national cleaning franchise.

He brought that experience to real estate concurrent with the release of The Millionaire Real Estate Agent, got blocked while building his team, started coaching top teams within the Tom Ferry organization, and started his own business that allows him to serve team leaders more like a fractional CEO than a coach.

The main theme of his work historically: turning your real estate job into a real business.
The main theme of his work lately: turning around your unprofitable business.

He’s helped people who are selling their investment properties or even their primary residences to keep their real estate business alive. And he shares cautions, tips, and step-by-step advice to help you stay ahead of that pain.
