Benefits and Competitive Advantages of RE/MAX Crest Affiliation
Every program and service that RE/MAX Crest provides is designed to enable Associates to reap the maximum reward for their efforts and to help them reach their full professional potential. From national television advertising to a global referral network, and from the RE/MAX Satellite Network to state-of-the-art electronic tools, RE/MAX Crest offers it all.
The RE/MAX Concept
The name RE/MAX was coined from the words "real estate" and "maximums." In exchange for paying a management fee and a share of monthly office overhead, RE/MAX Associates keep the maximum allowed amount of their commissions and receive the many benefits of RE/MAX programs and services. RE/MAX Associates share office expenses and a common identity and retain their earnings.
Freedom in advertising
While all RE/MAX Crest Associates contribute to group advertising funds, you determine how to invest in your own individual advertising and personal promotion. RE/MAX Crest Associates receive the leads that their efforts generate. The independence and creativity of RE/MAX Crest Sales Associates are nowhere more visible than in personal promotion activities.
Build a personal sales team
At RE/MAX Crest, you are free to hire licensed or unlicensed assistants, or create a sales team with members specializing in various aspects of the business - all within the overall management framework of the brokerage. This freedom enables you to build your business to any level you desire.
Advanced business training
Since it doesn't have to cater to inexperienced or marginal producers, RE/MAX training immediately jumps to the top producer's core need - increasing business without increasing work time. All RE/MAX training focuses on this goal, whether delivered via the RE/MAX Satellite Network, RSN®, national and regional conventions, or office-level training sessions. An increasing number of RSN® courses are worth credit for continuing education or professional designations. A typical RE/MAX International Convention includes more than 130 educational sessions, including numerous courses offering credit toward professional designations.
Most recognized logo in real estate
The RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon is one of the most recognized symbols in real estate, a reflection of large market share. The "Above the Crowd®" logo soars on RE/MAX advertising and promotion worldwide.
More signs, more ads, more prospects
When an office is filled with top-producing agents, the result is more yard signs and advertising throughout the market and more customers walking into or calling the office. Momentum picks up even more because only competent professionals handle the floor - converting a high percentage of off-the-street business into listings and sales.
Experiment and be creative
RE/MAX Associates are innovators. They were among the first to aggressively embrace personal promotion and buyer agency, and to adapt technology to the real estate sales process. New ways of doing business don't depend on top-down approval. The innovations start in the field and the RE/MAX system responds with support. RE/MAX Affiliates are encouraged to be the first to pioneer trends that lead to increased productivity.
