Summary

What is your relationship with your business and family? In today’s episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience, my dear friends and Rockstar team, Marti and Maxine Gellens shared all the secrets that have helped them succeed in the real estate industry and their family life.  Marti and Maxine Gellens are a mother-daughter luxury real estate team in La Jolla, California. As one of the top-ranked teams of La Jolla and the nation, they shared vital advice on how to balance work and family. They opened up about how they made their family business work, the changes they’ve experienced through the years, and how those lessons are now pushing them forward during this COVID-19 market. They also shared helpful marketing tips, strategies, and hiring advice to grow and maintain your team. I highly recommend listening to today’s episode two or three times and take a couple of tips that will work for you or your team!
