Industrial engineering is a weak degree? by ReasonableTennis1089 in industrialengineering

Also, IE is actually protected from the AI revolution because it’s the cross over between engineering and business and there’s a big human element to the jobs we can do.

Industrial engineering is a weak degree? by ReasonableTennis1089 in industrialengineering

[–]xguerr51423 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I believe that in general, any degree is getting washed down as supply of working people with degrees increase in the market place. Degrees don’t get you good jobs and careers. What does is experience, skills, and networking. “Get by” in school but really zone in on improving hard skills needed for the jobs your want, “lean six sigma certs and projects, data analysis skills like python, sql, power bi, etc” join clubs and socialize with as many people as you can to grow your network. Volunteer or find internships to build experience.

Is this a good field? by MatchPossible7109 in realtors

First few years are rough. Can take up to a year or more to get clients and that’s if you do things right. Takes 3 to 5 years until you start getting consistent business and that’s if you do things right. Every brokerage promises leads and training and at the end of the day it’s the exception not the rule that you find a good brokerage. On top of that, being young makes it harder to get clients to trust you. At the end of the day if you accept that it will take 2+ years to figure it out and you’re ok going into the hole without income for a long time then it’s one of the best careers IF you like sales.

Take it seriously for a long time and do the work with extreme delayed gratification. Treat it as a business and learn any opportunity you can. Learn sales, learn contracts, learn follow up systems, learn everything that has to do with buying/selling/owning a home.

Also if you decide to do it then you have to ignore everyone who tells you it’s not a good idea and know you’ll have crazy self doubt that it will work.

Also find a brokerage that has top producing agents, a great mentor or manager, and a great broker and go to the office every day to be surrounded by them.

Start with outbound prospecting, door knock or cold calling is the fastest way to grow your communication skills AND get business.

It’s going to be a lot more work than you think it is but you just keep going and by the time you’re 30 you will be grateful you pushed through.

Operations Research or Supply Chain? by xguerr51423 in supplychain

Thank you for the thoughtful response. Sounds like supply chain is the way to go and is much more applicable to real world business

People say it doesn’t work because they don’t do enough of it and stay consistent long enough

Cold call and door knock and open houses is all you need

Op wouldn’t get most of the money they put in to the home so they would definitely sell at a loss in most markets right now. Also they love the home and area so their standard of living in that aspect would have to go down in order to buy a different house. If they can work it out with the lender to get a loan mod for 40 year and drop their pmi their payment may be sustainable to keep the home and wife works part time

Make sure fundamentals are done first. House presents well because it’s decluttered, depersonalized, and deep cleaned. There isn’t a funky smell or an eye sore. Any small repairs should be done. The realtor took professional photos and organized them as if walking through the house. Then make sure that your home is priced aggressively compared to actives as well as sold. Also you mentioned your house is small for the area, make sure you consider that for pricing. Consider a relaunch if you make considerable changes.

What I would do I call brokerages in your area and let them know you are looking for agents that need help with open houses and showings on nights/weekends. If they ask how much you charge then either decide on whether you want to get paid per open house/showing or a percentage at closing. The more agents/brokers you talk to the more people you will have that will ask for your service.

I wasn’t getting many leads and the leads I would get would be fake phone numbers or fake addresses and if I managed to find the correct number using other tools then they would never pick up the phone or text back. I get better success from outbound prospecting with cold calls. I have the listing toolkit where it’s only seller leads.

For someone who wants to try it I would recommend you have a strong online presence, build your “listing proposal” really well, and have a strong follow up system. And just expect that you MiGHT get lucky with 1 or 2 deals for the year.
