12. REBAA Mentoring Program
The mentor program is free and involves an experienced buyer’s agent pairing with a learner or new buyer’s agent who might need some peer support to help them succeed in the day-to-day business. Mentors are some of the most experienced buyer’s agents in the country who understand the challenges of starting a small business. They can provide guidance on; business planning and systems, overcoming call reluctance or improving sales/signing up processes, recognising your niche, SWOT analysis and workshopping challenges, marketing and PR, managing staff effectively, confidence, presentation and ‘who’ to ask for help in the industry/outsourcing.
13. Media Relations
REBAA works closely with the media to ensure buyer’s agents have a voice in the property industry and to profile the benefits of buyer’s agents for consumers. In this way we are working hard to raise awareness of buyer’s agents, their services and their credibility, to the broader public.
