Looks like I’m late to the party on this one. I’m psyched for you both to begin this thing and I’m looking forward to seeing what comes next from you. Best wishes for success from Columbus.

Jay… I wish you all the best. Really.

I don’t know much about C21… but, I wonder if you checked out Keller Williams? I know of a number of big companies that decided, eventually, to build their company within the infrastructure of KW due to the excellent models, mastermind groups, training, etc. etc.

Keller Williams is phenomenal in allowing and actually supporting you in so many ways to “build your company” within their infrastructure…

One guy that has done this is Pat Hiban (www.pathiban.com) … his “company” turns over $200 million a year. When you’re that size you can do what you want… so, ask yourself, why does he stay with Keller Williams? I have many more examples. I bet Gary Keller himself would love to talk to you about your decision!

[...] Jay Thompson did it. How many others that I don’t know about? Isn’t this progression the logical manifestation of blogging, a medium that requires independent thinking and thereby builds an online brand? Certainly, brokerages offer other value to agents than branding, but good agents going independent seems like a nice counter-trend to the intense consolidation of the major franchises. [...]
