Probably to be decently profitable we really needed 50 to 100 agents, so 35 was just the minimum to start an office.An alternative for you if you think you are or could be a great recruiter is to join a brokerage like Keller Williams, which will allow you to run your business inside of theirs.   

Have a before-and-after image on said sign. 2) Get those leads...pass on to realtor. 3) Say the realtor works for Keller Williams.
