How to Invest Your Time More Wisely w/Melinda Elmer

Level Up - From Agent to Entrepreneur

Even if we’re new to business and have minimal funds, we are guaranteed to see results if we invest our time into the right tasks. Why is it so important to leverage activities to others and free up our time? Once we have a team, do we need to oversee their activities, or can we use our new free time recreationally? On this episode, owner of The Elmer Team at Century 21 Masters, Melinda Elmer, shares how to get a higher ROI on your time.

When you hire a team, the goal is to let them do their jobs. You don’t have to hold their hand the whole way. -Melinda Elmer

Takeaways + Tactics

• Start hiring people as soon as the inventory increases: We should never miss out on deals purely because we have too much on our plates.
  
• Let team members do their jobs. Once we’ve made a hire, it’s important to let our team perform their own roles so we can use our time more effectively.
  
• Remember that we aren’t hiring recruits to have more free time; we’re hiring them so we can take advantage of our freed up time to do more business. Invest time in income-generating activities.

At the start of this episode, we spoke about the importance of investing our time in the right activities. After explaining why this is such an effective method of achieving great results, we discussed why we need to follow tried-and-tested systems if we want to see outstanding outcomes.

On this episode we also discussed:

• The importance of knowing how to decide which tasks are urgent, and which can wait
• That we need to keep using the same systems if we want to see results
