That quote comes from the Arnie movie True Lies. Love that movie! It also applies to our team here. I was diggin through our archives and found this article that Fawn wrote last summer during the Olympics. Even though Kesha has moved on and I am now here, the principle stil applies. We are there for each other as a team meaning our clients never miss out. Someone is always there to make sure that it gets done!

Watching the ongoing Olympics in Athens, the athletes compete, the way they work together and the team spirit that they express, I couldn’t help but think how that related to our real estate team and they way that we work together. 

When a team member on a basketball team is out, the other team members pull together and pick up the responsibilities of the members of the team that could not be with them.  They do not stop playing the game, they do not complain about the extra work, they band together support each other and move on, just as The Johnson Team does when a member is out.

As I am writing Rich and Lylene, two of our most crucial team members are traveling through South East Asia, on a trip of a lifetime through China, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam.  Something which was made possible through our team approach.  Unlike an agent who works alone, Rich and Lylene are able to leave on trips and not have to worry about who will take care of their business or how the office will run.  They are members of a team, a team who they are confident in and who they know will handle their clients with the same care and respect and they would. 

While they have been on vacation, the team has banded together, Mike & Graham have filled in on listings and showings, Fawn has handled closing issues and Kesha has been sure that everything is in the right place at the right time.  Our Buyer and Sellers were left with the piece of mind that no matter where one member of the team may be at a certain time, there are always five other member of the team working and ready to help them with their needs. 

Who would you want working for you, one player or the whole team?
