Greetings from the Mohegan Sun Hotel and Casino in beautiful Uncasville, Connecticut! I’m here with super-team, Byron Lazine and Nicole White. When Byron and Nicole met back in 2016, they recognized the rare opportunity for a mastermind partnership which couldn’t be passed up, even if it meant relocating and beginning a new team from day one.
Good thing they did, because today they’re running multiple monster businesses, putting out several regular shows, and are continuing to scale at a ridiculous rate. This week, they shared with me what it takes to manage their time and operations, including:
- An impressive new agent training program
- Refining a common vision
- Understanding each other’s communication styles
Byron and Nicole have a ton of practical wisdom to share, so watch or listen, right here. And if you haven’t seen their podcast, The REAL Word, I highly recommend you check it out.
