<p>Housingstorm wants to help you stay focused and grow your business in the New Year.  We are offering you the opportunity to participate in the <strong>HS 400 Club Prospecting Program</strong>.  This 4-week<strong> </strong>program is designed to help you stay focused on a variety of prospecting activities to fill up your 2010 pipeline!</p>
<p>Here’s how it works:  You will use the HS400 Prospecting Grid to track your activities.  Each week you will set a goal to earn 100 prospecting points.  The more business-generating activities you do, the more points you will earn. You’ll notice that the higher payoff activities will earn you higher points.  But even if you choose to do the lower payoff activities, you will still increase your opportunities to grow your prospect pipeline.</p>
<p>Each week, <a href="http://realestatetraining.housingstorm.com/about-cathy-spencer/" target="_blank">Cathy</a> will provide group coaching, encouragement, and new ideas through interactive video conferences.  There will also be a private group forum to share ideas, feedback, and success with other members.</p>
<p>This will be a great place to have open dialogues with other people just like you that are making a commitment to grow their real estate business.</p>
<p>You can even customize your plan to include activities you subscribe to from other training programs like Buffini or Ferry.</p>
<p><em><strong>At the end of the 4 weeks, the agent with the most points will win 6 months of free HousingStorm Premium Membership!</strong></em></p>
<p>The program starts Monday, February 8th and runs through Friday March 5th.</p>
<p>Video Conference Calls for this Class will be Mondays at 10:00 Pacific Time.</p>
<p>The cost of this program is FREE&#8230;so invite your real estate friends and co-workers to sign up.</p>
