In this episode of Success Superstars, Edith Melendez sits down with Mark Johnson to discuss how to leverage any skillset into Real Estate.
Having worked in banking for years, Edith has been able to provide buyers and sellers with ‘behind-the-scenes’ expertise and detailed explanations of the whole process that most professionals in the industry can’t match. She felt inspired by being able to take control of her own professional success and to give back in ways that a corporate job wouldn’t have allowed her to. Edith talks about how to sell to millennials and the power of tools like owning targeted landing pages and Facebook Pixels.
” The best things in life don’t come easy. It’s all mind, it’s not so much the physical or sweat equity. Stop thinking poor or otherwise, you’ll be poor. If you want to get to certain places in life, you have to put in that work, no matter what’s going on on your personal life.” – Edith Melendez, JP and Associates REALTORS®

Kevin talks about the importance of testing the right platforms for his business, training and prospecting in his first year of Real Estate. Kevin has doubled what most agents achieve in their first year at JPAR and he achieved so by seeking out a mentor right from the get-go!
Mailouts and business cards make up almost 25% of his business, which Kevin works hard at, every single day. He also adds that having a tracker and staying organized and on schedule is the key factor in staying successful in business long-term.
