During these trying times, our industry has watched giants close their doors. We have witnessed first hand a federal government bailout, yet Keller Williams has continued to turn a profit. During the first days of October, one of the Owasso, Oklahoma agents experienced some trying times on a personal level. Her daughter underwent several major life threatening procedures and survived. Last count she was hiking up and down the hospital halls as if nothing had ever happened. At the office, the Keller Williams' agents had a spirit day to raise funds for this family. Items were brought in and auctioned off. There were multiple tables of scrumptous homemade goodies from pineapple-cherry cream pie to hot tamales sold at a silent auction. Lunch was served and the funds raised went to promote the occassion. The industry turned out and contributed. One of the agent's daughters was so touched that she remarked, "Mom, where do you work? Is this a church?"
Gary Keller built his company with God first, family second and work in the position that it should hold. Keller Williams is continuing to profit because of this ethic. At Keller, agents are set up on a profit sharing program. It is actually possible to make more than 100% working for Keller. Because of the Keller organizational structure success is eminent. Most companies are set up with PROFIT 1st, 2nd and 3rd. As a nation, we need to remember where we came from. In the beginning .............man created profit? NO! Find your book and start in Genesis and build on those principles and profit will continue even in a down market.
