delegating four showings to her teammates while focusing on the fifth. After spending most of the weekend at home, within a week, all offers were under contract. The entire team benefited financially. Shortly after, one of those agents happily committed to being Lamore’s full-time showing specialist. “I decided not to work evenings or weekends, and never miss any of my children’s field trips or games, so I found a way to

ensure that,” Lamore said. “Having a team within a team allows me to have every weekend with my family while still serving clients through a showing specialist. It changed the structure of my life while making me money.” After two years of support from a full-time showing specialist, Lamore’s sales jumped 61%. Her team has advanced to 24 agents in three locations, closing $3 million in GCI annually. Her original showing specialist earned additional opportunities, tapping into the leverage model. “I needed to release all the parts of the transaction that I was in control of and let the team handle it so I could fully focus on my ‘seat on the bus, the Ben Kinney Team,” Lamore said. “My showing specialist eventually joined me on my seat ‘on the bus’ and then we worked all our clients together.” Today Lamore’s office is a paper toss away from the cubicle where a weekend’s solution inspired the foundation of the PLACE Leverage Model. She explains that the circle of resources that Kinney once drew for her years ago grows constantly, quickly implementing new products and improving systems. Agents are supported at each stage as they move through the Leverage Model to build a team within Lamore’s team. The greatest model benefit she’s seen change agents’ lives is the company health insurance that opens the door to the PLACE Opportunity Model. “PLACE agents are talented,” Lamore said. “The faster we fully embrace the standards, vision, and value propositions PLACE offers, the faster we grow.”
