Pro vs Premium BP Membership

[Brandon Spurlock]

Hello from Richmond, VA! I have been a long-time BP listener, and am in the middle of switching careers - I've received my Real Estate Salesperson license and will be starting full-time next month. I'll be joining a team in July and cannot wait to get started.

I just finished David Green's "Sold" book, and noted his repetition about new agents joining BP Premium. To be honest, before reading his book I only knew there was Basic and Pro. My question: if I was to join Premium, would I be joining as myself, or should I be signing up the team that I'm joining? I am joining a new team at a newly formed firm, none of whom are BP listeners or members (I intend to change that). I noticed, for example, that The David Greene Team is on BP, and it looks like David is the only Premium agent on his team - the other agents are Basic or Pro. I'm trying to understand if I should be joining Premium only if my team is added, or if I should join Premium purely to represent myself as an agent, regardless of my team. Or in that case, should I just go to Pro? Or, should my team lead be the sole Premium member representing our team, similar to David's team?

I'm interested in hearing the experience of other agents, and the value you received from being a Pro and/or a Premium member. Thanks in advance!
