4. Build Your Business
Now that you have your license, it’s time to grow your client base and build your business!
Getting your license is necessary, but it’s only the beginning. Buyers and Sellers don’t care about your technical knowledge as much as they do about your ability to market and sell on their behalf, negotiating the best terms, and do so with speed and precision. For this, you need business and financial skills.
