MetroBrokersTV: Coming to you live from the Colorado Association of Realtors State Convention at the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs. I am Scott Shields with metrobrokerstv.com and I am joined here today by a Metro Broker Will Roberts, who is also the President of the Denver Board of Realtors. Will, thank you for joining us tonight.

William Roberts: Thanks for having me Scott.

MetroBrokersTV: Will, tell us how long you have been with Metro Brokers?

William Roberts: It has been about four years now. I bought my franchise back in 2004 I guess.

MetroBrokersTV: All right and how has your experience been with Metro Brokers? What has Metro Brokers done for you as a Realtor?

William Roberts: It has allowed me to spread my wings. I mean the whole independent companies working together, having access to a lot of resources, but at the same time having independence has been wonderful for me.

MetroBrokersTV: Well, thats always great to hear, especially coming from a man like yourself. Now, you are the President of the Denver Board of Realtors. So, you are definitely involved and you are out there and seeing what the real estate industry is going through and coming about and where it is possibly heading. Where do you see Metro Brokers fitting into that and where do you see the real estate industry going too?

William-Will-Roberts: Well, once again, that independent companies working together for a common good as far as transactions and selling homes, it allows us to have a greater marketing power, a greater potential to succeed and so, yeah, I see that happening a lot more because you have to get lean, you really have to get lean in this market and this is the perfect time to model to get lean in.

MetroBrokersTV: Well, thats great. So, get down and get back to the basics, get back to what works, cut off the excess and just go for it.

William-Will-Roberts: Absolutely.

MetroBrokersTV: Well Will, thank you so much for talking with us today. Enjoy your convention while you are here.

William-Will-Roberts: Thanks for having me Scott.

Teresa, thank you for stopping by and speaking with us today. So, tell us a little about yourself and how long have you been with Metro Brokers?

Teresa Micale: Probably four or five years.

MetroBrokersTV: Great and what office are you out of?

Teresa Micale: Highlands Ranch Town Center.

MetroBrokersTV: Why did you join Metro Brokers?

Teresa Micale: To save money. Wanted to own my own company and enjoy the profit myself.

MetroBrokersTV: So, by joining Metro Brokers, you gave yourself basically an increase in salary due to the low cost and having, would you agree with that, that's one of the main reasons?

Teresa Micale: Absolutely.

Hi. I am Scott Shields, marketing events specialist at Metro Brokers Inc. and I am down here today right now at the CAR state convention at the Broadmoor. My role here is to help recruit and get the message and branding awareness out about Metro Brokers and all the benefits of Metro Brokers. My day job normally when I am in the office is helping with the marketing committee and getting out our latest ads, our media buys, our commericals, and getting out the general message about Metro Brokers and why you'd want to be a Metro Broker. Everyday is always exciting and new at Metro Brokers and so I encourage everyone thats a Metro Broker to come down and get involved and see us at the corporate office. We would love to have you.

MetroBrokersTV: You are watching another great episode on metrobrokerstv.com and I am Scott Shields and I am joined here today with the newly installed SMDRA Chairman of the Board, Sandy Trujillo, Hope Enterprises, LLC. Sandy, thanks so much for coming down and speaking with us today.

Sandy Trujillo: Pleasure. Thank you.

MetroBrokersTV: Tell us about your Metro Brokers experience? When did you join Metro Brokers?

Sandy Trujillo: It has been almost three years now and I am at the Littleton office, Dry Creek and Broadway, great office, wonderful people there, lot of great synergy in the office. If you ever have any questions, there is always somebody to ask and I love being the owner of my own company. I think right now trend wise, what I am seeing as far as the new people that come to orientation at our board, most of those new people are going to the smaller companies instead of the larger franchise companies.

MetroBrokersTV: So, where do you see Metro Brokers in the future and where would you position it with the way the real estate industry is heading?

Sandy Trujillo: You know, Metro Brokers is positioned perfectly because we are the best of both worlds. We can say weve got 1700 agents give or take throughout the state of Colorado, which we belong to that. There is a feeling of belonging, because those signs, they are all the same and we all are a Metro Broker, yet we are our individual company. We dont have to report to somebody else necessarily. We could have people under us that's a beautiful thing. You know we can structure our business the way we want to do it without the rules of a corporate entity directing us.

MetroBrokersTV: So, am I wrong in saying there is no other business model out there like that?

Sandy Trujillo: Yes, you are. Thats right. Thats correct. I love it.

MetroBrokersTV: Well, thats great to hear. For more stories, just point your mouse and go to www.metrobrokerstv.com.
