Yesterday I had the great pleasure of spending the entire day at a local hospital with a friend. As the day came to an end, a few of my friends said they wanted to go by the nursery and see the babies. So, since I had been sitting in the same room for many hours, I agreed to go along on the journey. When we arrived at the nursery, we began to all ooh and ahh over the little babies. Then, a sign hanging in the background caught my attention. Unfortunately I was not close enough to see the complete details, but I could definitely read the big bold title. It said:
Striving for Excellence! Our Goal is 60%!!!
At first this sign struck me humorous but then began to sadden me. I thought to myself, "when did 60% become excellence?" I remember in high school 60% was a failing grade on an exam. I did receive a few of these during my time in high school and they were definitely not the tests I ran home to put on the refrigerator to brag to mom & dad about. I kept trying to figure out how their level of excellence can be achieved at 60%.
If the number was really high like 95% or above, that would represent excellence. An example might be something like: We scored a 95% or higher on our recent patient satisfaction surveys. On the other hand, if this number was really low like below 3% I could see it representing excellence as well. This would be the case for something like for the past 10 years we have achieved a level of excellence by having less than 3% of our patients file a lawsuit.
I then began to think about my real estate exam. Unfortunately the minimum score was only a 70% to pass. To me, that is not a level of excellence but rather level of mediocrity. I remember when I took my exam for my license that many in my class were ecstatic to just pass with a 73% score. Mine was a 94% and I was rather upset with myself.
I guess that is one of the reasons I have managed to remain successful as a Myrtle Beach Real Estate agent. One of the things that my father & I have always pressed for is being the most successful real estate agents possible. We are continually taking more classes to keep ourselves educated and always looking for new ways of selling Myrtle Beach Real Estate.
For The Blanton Team, mediocrity is not acceptable when it comes to helping our clients buy or sell Myrtle Beach Real Estate. No matter whether our client is buying a Myrtle Beach one bedroom condo for under $100,000 or selling a Myrtle Beach Luxury Home, we try to give each client excellent service. I guess that is why The Blanton Team's motto is "Your Satisfaction is Our Reputation!"
