Hello to all our Florida CRB Chapter members:

Welcome to another great year with our Florida CRB Chapter. We have many great programs already

in the works for the upcoming months.

To make this the best year possible in this shifting market, here are a couple of simple tips. We know

that we need to set goals and have a business plan, but for some reason most REALTORS® leave their

fate to chance and hope that a successful, financially rewarding year will just happen. Having a dream

and having goals will ensure that you prepare a business plan and stick to it monthly. It really is the

only way to be successful in our profession.

Second, if you haven’t already done so, check out our newly enhanced Website www.floridacrb.com,

with our searchable database of Member Expertise Profiles. Take a few moments to fill out your profile;

we as members will be able to use this database as a valuable source of information.

Looking to be involved in your board or association? Thinking of running for public office? Need ideas

for recruiting agents for your office? Not only will you connect with a fellow REALTOR® for advice, but

you also will gain a new referral contact.

Florida CRB Chapter has so much to offer REALTORS® who are feeling challenged in our current

marketplace. Our education is fabulous, our networking superb, our support systems invaluable. Get

ready for your best year ever!
