What would Leigh Brown do?

Apparently, on social media, people have been posing the question “What would Leigh Brown do?”

Well, let me tell y’all, what Leigh would do now is a lot different than what I would have done 16 years ago when I started in real estate.

A lot of that evolution centers on facing problems head-on and helping those around me better themselves in a way that isn’t degrading.

When I see an agent doing something like posting terrible listing photos, I’m not going to rail on that agent on social media. I’m going to privately address the issue with a phone call or an email directly to that person.

Each of us needs a little more training and a little more guidance to get better.

Remember these things when addressing other agents:

There are ways to talk about getting better without getting personal or mean.
