After many years of self-employment, John Abovian of Abovian & Associates with Keller Williams® in Glendale, CA knows first hand the value of having an assistant. When he recently heard about the concept of REVA Teams, he immediately recognized what this could mean for his business. Here’s how he turned that idea into reality.

Hi Michael,

When I attended your sessions at the Keller Williams® Mega Agent Camp in Austin the end of September I was not prepared for the mind-blowing ideas I would hear and the turn my business would soon take. The concept of a virtual assistant team struck a chord with me because the idea is so powerful – dealing with one person as my team lead yet having a whole team of specialists to do the work.

I learned a long time ago that if you want to succeed you have to give up some control. In the beginning of my career I had to have control over everything in my business – I couldn’t let go. I simply couldn’t do everything myself. Then I slowly learned how to delegate. That’s why it was so easy for me to grasp the concept of what could be done with virtual assistance.

Before the conference I had read “The Millionaire Real Estate Agent,” a book that truly changed my view of the Real Estate business, and was thinking of hiring an onsite assistant. I was trying to sort out what an assistant would be able to do. After I heard you speak about virtual assistance I realized that I didn’t need an onsite assistant. Working with REVA Teams is office management for the 21st century - making maximum use of technology and having specialists of super high quality that will help me take my business to the next level.

You really have created something extraordinary in REVA Teams! After such a short time I’ve turned almost everything over to my team, which frees my hands of all the things that are a nuisance to me and allows me to be with my clients. They handle my drip marketing, database management, listing coordination, my website, pre-listing and listing packages and manage my IVR system. All the tools that I need to go out there and sell and make my phone ring.

I look at it this way. You can pay someone $10-15 an hour and hope that they can do the work – or you can make the commitment and trust the professionals to do the work consistently. The results you get will most certainly reflect the choice you make.

Best Regards,

John
