Real Estate Apprentice® Grant Adds New Sponsor
Aliso Viejo, Calif. September 14, 2005 – The Real Estate Apprentice Foundation today announced that Wright Computer Group LLC of Houston, Texas (DBA CreateAPlan) is the newest Real Estate Apprentice Grant Sponsor. CreateAPlan President Allen Wright expressed his excitement of the Apprentice game plan by saying: “If you want to earn a million dollars you need a roadmap to define what you will need to do to achieve that goal and CreateAPlan together with the Real Estate Apprentice Foundation can help”.
CreateAPlan (http://www.createaplan.com) provides strategic and business planning for the real estate professionals. “We provide a simple solution for the real estate agent or broker who wants to run their business like a business and not a hobby” said Wright. “Often people confuse business planning with goal setting. Anyone can set goals. CreateAPlan is a business planning tool that calculates how many transactions you must close, your total overhead cost per transaction and how many activities you must complete to meet your income goals” he added. CreateAPlan also allows the true real estate professional to test different scenarios so they can make intelligent and informed business decisions.
“The CreateAPlan addition to the existing list of strategic Sponsors is an important one” said Dr. Martin Oliver, Deputy Executive Director. “With the addition of each new Sponsor’s product or service an essential piece to the puzzle is added moving the industry closer to seeing the big picture concerning new agent fall-out and failure” Oliver added.
The goal of the Real Estate Apprentice Foundation is the creation of a national program to assist new licensed agents entering the real estate industry, to overcome their fears and obstacles and to facilitate them to become top producing sales associates by providing quality guidance, education, products and services to help guide them on a successful fast track to profitability. The program is designed to spotlight the importance of real estate apprenticeships for the public good, the enhancement and betterment of the U.S. residential real estate brokerage industry and to raise the standards and levels of professionalism for real estate agents in general.”
