SHOW NOTES

I know that creating a defining breakthrough moment for your business is easier said than done.

It can get easier and become a reality by knowing the vital elements required to take your company to the next level.

On today’s Tom Ferry Podcast Experience, I invited Gino Blefari, former agent, former manager and current CEO of HomeServices of America.

There is no doubt that Gino is one of the most influential people in the real estate sector. He shares the wisdom, management philosophy and framework on how an entrepreneur, real estate manager, team leader, and CEO of any business can take their company to the top!

In his own words, “A leader must always be the most disciplined, most consistent, most persistent, most authentic, most service-oriented and most personally developed member of the team.”

He also talks about his famous “West Coast Offense” strategy and how it helped him make his own breakthrough in the market.

Take your time to listen to this helpful episode and start using Gino’s helpful West Coast Offense check list to become a leader and achieve the success you desire!
