Why Keller Williams?
Posted by Dawn Polk under For Realty Professionals, Consulting, Culture, Barrow County Real Estate, Jackson County Real Estate
Many people ask me, “why did you choose Keller Williams Realty?”
I always respond, “how much time do you have?” If you have been around me for very long, you know I can get pretty passionate about our company and what it has done for me in the last three and half years and what I have seen our company do for so many other people.
I decided to join KW in October of 2005 after I had hit a ceiling in my real estate career. I wanted to get excited about our industry again and more than anything, I wanted someone to show me how to take my business to the next level. The training and more importantly, the coaching was exactly what I needed to break through that ceiling I had been banging my head against! I learned how to turn my real estate “job” into a thriving “business” and later had the opportunity to share that experience with other people and help them reach their goals!
After coming over and immersing myself in the company, I learned to appreciate so much more…the associate leadership council, an opportunity to have a say-so in how our company is run; the fact that we are an open-book company and every agent can see how much we make and how much we spend and how much we have saved for a rainy day; the profit sharing system, the technology, the list goes on and on.
But, the most important reason for me that I stay at KW is our people. I love our associates and our culture, how we treat eachother and how we challenge each other. I love the way we share with one another and grow together. We have a family environment with national franchise tools and resources; the best of both worlds!
Our mission is simple and so powerful; to build Careers Worth Having, Businesses Worth Owning and Lives Worth Living. We belive in God, Family, then business.
So, why did you join KW? And if you haven’t, why don’t you?

The biggest reason I made the transition to Keller Williams was because of Dawn Polk. I had met her and worked with her in the years past and she was a big factor in my coming to KW. In addition to that after talking to Dawn and Keith I was excited about the program they had in place. I had been in real estate full time for over 2 years and held my license since 2001. I learned more in the first six months that was so enlightening. The KW culture is great you can call on anyone and they are there to help and or to provide support. March 24, 2009 at 12:25 pm
I came to Keller Williams for several reasons. The main reason was I saw the passion that everyone associated with KW had when I talked to them. Everyone was just so excited about being there and truly enjoyed what they were doing. Before I joined, real estate was becoming something I really didn't enjoy anymore because I didn't know how to make it exciting and profitable. In our first meeting I felt like you actually cared about my future in real estate and to be honest I didn't get that before. It's like a big family in our office and I love the fact that there is no drama. Everyone is so supportive and sharing with information and the tools for success. Speaking of the tools for success, the resources are another reason why I made a move. I was blown away by the resources this company provides me to be successful. Not just in the beginning either, it's ongoing. I'm glad I made the move and it's been the best decision I've ever made proffessionally. March 25, 2009 at 7:27 pm

I was referred to Keller Williams by a friend back in May of '07. The first thing I noticed about the company was that it had a family atmosphere and everyone seemed to really get along. What impressed me the most was that the company seemed to really care about me and my career. You don't just find that in business everyday so I knew I had found something special. The next thing I noticed after just a short time was that the training and resources were incredible. I am extremely fortunate and grateful to have joined the Keller Williams family.
