Why do you have Bob and/or Lillian as your Coach?

I HAVE DOUBLED MY DOLLAR PRODUCTIVE ACTIVITY BECAUSE OF A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF HOW EFFECTIVE MY DAY HAS BEEN. THIS IN TURN HAS LEAD TO BETTER PRODUCTIVITY FROM MY TEAM.

Rick Ferris, Mentor, OH

WORKING WITH LILLIAN MONTALTO IS A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE! IT IS A PLEASURE AND HONOR TO HAVE LILLIAN'S PERSONAL PARTICIPATION IN MY REAL ESTATE CAREER. JUST LIKE MOST OF US NEED TO HIRE A PERSONAL TRAINER TO KEEP US ON TRACK AND STAY FOCUSED ON A DAILY AND WEEKLY BASIS. LILLIAN IS NO DIFFERENT FOR ME IN THE BUSINESS ARENA. LILLIAN KEEPS ME FOCUSED BY USING DAILY ACCOUNTABILITY AND FACE TO FACE SYSTEMS. FROM THE FIRST TIME I MET LILLIAN I KNEW THAT SHE WAS AN AMAZING PERSONALITY. WHEN YOU ARE SPEAKING WITH LILLIAN SHE MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE THE ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD THAT MATTERS AND FOCUSES 110% ON ALL YOUR NEEDS. LILLIAN HAS THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND YOUR MOODS THE MINUTE YOU PICK UP THE PHONE.

BOB AND LILLIAN HAVE EXPANDED MY VIEW OF LIFE AND ALL THE POSSIBILITIES THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO ME BOTH PERSONALLY AND PROFESSIONALLY! FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART I WISH TO THANK YOU BOTH FOR ALL THAT YOU DO TO GIVE BACK TO ALL OF US COACHING STUDENTS!

BOB PUSHES ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL WHICH IS HARD TO DO BY MYSELF.

Lance Kammes, Chicago, IL

I MET LILLIAN IN JUNE 2005 AND WAS INSTANTLY OVERWHELMED WITH HER WARM AND SINCERE PERSONALITY. I HAD HIT A BRICK WALL WITH MY BUSINESS PLAN AND WITHIN 1 HOUR OF SPENDING TIME WITH HER I WAS ABLE TO STRUCTURE THE NEXT 6 MONTHS. FROM THEN ON, HER PROFESSIONAL AND KNOWLEDGEABLE GUIDANCE REMAINS A CONSTANT AND ONGOING SUPPORT WHICH CONTINUOUSLY ENABLES ME TO DEVELOP MYSELF BOTH PERSONALLY AND PROFESSIONALLY. IT IS BOTH AN HONOR AND BLESSING TO HAVE LILLIAN MONTALTO AS MY BUSINESS COACH.

Erit Livshitz, Mark Hay Realty Group, Australia

I DIDN'T CONTINUE AS A STUDENT OFFICIALLY, BUT I IMPLEMENT YOUR TEACHINGS THE BEST I CAN ON A DAILY BASIS. I STILL COMPLETE MY DAILY ACCOUNTABILITY SHEETS MOST OF THE TIME.

ONE CAN BE SUCCESSFUL USING YOUR METHODS EVEN WITH A "FAIR" ATTEMPT. YOUR STRATEGIES ARE SO SOUND AND INCREDIBLY PRODUCTIVE. THEY'RE SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE. I USE YOUR SCRIPTS TO GET PRICE REDUCTIONS AND GET THEM ALMOST 100% OF THE TIME IN LESS THAN 30 DAYS. I ONLY TAKE 'NICE' CLIENTS THAT APPRECIATE MY PROFESSIONALISM, AND REFER THEIR FRIENDS TO US. I DON'T TAKE 'BAD' CILENTS. I WORK MUCH, MUCH LESS AND STILL MAKE GOOD MONEY AND 'CHERRY PICK' THE DEALS I WANT. I AVERAGED $700 PER HOUR ON MY LAST BUYER - THEY BOUGHT THE 4TH HOUSE THEY SAW. THANKS FOR TEACHING ME HOW TO WORK WITH BUYERS AT THAT ITALIAN RESTAURANT IN BRIGHTON WHEN I SHADOWED YOU - I STILL REMEMBER WHEN YOU EXPLAINED IT TO ME. THE TRIP WAS WORTH THAT ONE PIECE OF INFORMATION. EVEN THOUGH I MADE LESS THAN 1/10th OF WHAT YOU MAKE PER HOUR ON THE LAST BUYER, I'M HAPPY AND MY FAMILY IS HAPPY AND LACK OF MONEY ISN'T AN ISSUE.

YOU INSPIRED ME TO CHANGE MY BUSINESS AND WORK DURING THE REGULAR BUSINESS HOURS. IT REALLY CAN BE DONE. YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT NOT NEEDING MY OFFICE MANAGER. BUT, YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN RIGHT WITH YOUR ADVICE.

I BELIEVE THAT ONE OF THE BEST THINGS A STUDENT CAN DO TO SHOW THE TEACHER THEIR SINCERE APPRECIATION IS TO BECOME SUCCESSFUL. I VALUE YOUR COACHING AT THE LEVEL I COMPARE TO MY PARENT'S TEACHINGS, MY EAGLE SCOUT EXPERIENCE AND GRADUATING FROM GEORGIA TECH.

Scott Sanders, Atlanta, GA

I APPRECIATE BOB’S ADDITIONAL ADVICE ON BUSINESS DECISIONS, ASSISTANCE ON INVESTMENTS.

Wade Klick, Minneapolis, MN

BOB IS AN AMAZING COACH. HE HAS THE ABILITY TO GET YOU TO DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO - RAISE THE BAR IN REAL ESTATE. HE IS BY FAR THE BEST COACH IN THE UNIVERSE.

Mario Sanfrancesco & Frank Pompeani, Australia

NOT ONLY DID MY INCOME DOUBLE THE FIRST YEAR OF COACHING WITH LILLIAN, SHE HELPED ME FIND SOME BALANCE IN MY LIFE. I WORK FEWER DAYS WITH MORE FACE TO FACE APPOINTMENTS THROUGH MY ACCOUNTABILITY TO HER AND MYSELF. SHE IS SO IN TUNE WITH ME AS A COACHING STUDENT SHE KNOWS IF SOMETHING IS WRONG OR IF I'M OFF TRACK BY THE WAY I SAY HI LILLIAN AT THE BEGINNING OF THE CALL.

Nancy Kennedy, Croton-on-Hudson, New York

I SOUGHT OUT BOB’S EXPERTISE AFTER SEEING A VIDEO HE MADE OF A LISTING PRESENTATION WITH (HOWARD BRINTON). HE DELIVERED A FAULTLESS QUESTON BASED PRESENTATION AND STUNG HIM WITH A KILLER CLOSER “APART FROM MY COMMISSION IS THERE ANY REASON WE CAN’T MOVE FORWARD NOW?”

Mark Hay, Perth, Australia

BOB HAS INCREDIBLE INSIGHT FOR THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY. HE IS INNOVATIVE, CREATIVE, AND HAS A GENUINE INTEREST IN HELPING PEOPLE BETTER THEIR LIVES, BOTH FINANCIALLY AND PERSONALLY.

Phil & Johnnye Sumerson, Kansas City, MO

I AM DELIGHTED TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS MY PROFOUND AND HEARTFELT GRATITUDE FOR LILLIAN'S PARTICIPATION IN MY REAL ESTATE CAREER. LILLIAN'S EXPERIENCE AND COACHING SKILLS HAVE ALLOWED ME TO BECOME A MORE PROFESSIONAL, CONSISTENT AND PROFITABLE REALTOR. I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT THAT SHE NOT ONLY CARES ABOUT MY SUCCESS BUT IS A RAVING FAN FOR MY GROWTH AS A REALTOR AND PERSON. WITH LILLIAN'S COACHING, I WAS ABLE TO DOUBLE MY INCOME IN 2005 AND HOPE TO HAVE A VERY PROFITABLE 2006 AS WELL! THANK YOU LILLIAN.

Theresa Runyan, Brighton, MI

BOB CERTAINLY HAS EXPANDED MY VIEW OF LIFE AND THE POSSIBILITIES THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO ME. FOR AN EXAMPLE LAST WEEK I WAS IN MEXICO LOOKING AT BUYING A VILLA OVERLOOKING THE OCEAN. TWO YEARS AGO THE THOUGHT WOULD HAVE NEVER ENTERED MY MIND AND IF IT DID I WOULD HAVE HAD MYSELF LOCKED UP FOR MENTAL PROBLEMS.

BOB HAS BEEN A PLODDING FORCE TO KEEP ME GOING WHEN I NORMALLY WOULD HAVE GIVEN UP. LOOKING BACK I HAVE MADE A HUGE LEAP IN THE WAYS THAT I WORK. AT THE TIME IT HAS SEEMED LIKE A SNAILS PACE. BUT IN 2 YEARS MY INCOME HAS DOUBLED, MY WORK TIME HAS DECREASED, AND MY ENJOYMENT OF MY WORK HAS SOARED!! BOB NEVER LET UP, HE JUST KEPT PRODDING ME, GETTING ME TO GET CONTROL, BE ACCOUNTABLE, ASK QUESTIONS, AND GET FACE TO FACE'S.

NOW I HAVE GOALS THAT I COULD HAVE EXPLAINED TO YOU, CONVINCINGLY COULD NEVER BE ACHIEVED BY ANYONE, LET ALONE ME! I AM EXCITED AND IMPATIENT TO GET ON WITH THEM. TWO YEARS AGO I WOULDN'T HAVE UNDERSTOOD THERE IS A PROCESS TO IT AND IT IS POSSIBLE.

BOB THINKS BIG!!

Bryan Barnes, Toronto, Canada

I MET LILLIAN TWELVE YEARS AGO WHEN MY WIFE AND I BEGAN LOOKING FOR OUR FIRST HOME. HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR HER PICTURE ON A SIGN AND A PERSONAL RECOMMENDATION, I AM CONVINCED MINE WOULD HAVE BEEN A VERY DIFFERENT LIFE. UNLIKE A "TRADITIONAL COACHING STUDENT" WHO HIRES LILLIAN TO COACH THEM, I AM THE MOST FORTUNATE COACHING STUDENT OF ALL, IN THAT LILLIAN HIRED ME; THUS PROVIDING ME WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN FROM HER EACH AND EVERY DAY. THIS IS A GESTURE FOR WHICH I OWE HER MY UNENDING GRATITUDE.

LILLIAN AND BOB HAVE HELPED ME TO STOP, LOOK, LISTEN AND LEARN FROM THE ENVIRONMENT AROUND ME BY ALWAYS BEING IN CURIOSITY. FOR THIS AND ALL OF THE OPPORTUNITIES THEY HAVE PROVIDED AND PREPARED ME FOR, I CANNOT THANK THEM ENOUGH. LILLIAN AND BOB HAVE HELPED ME TO MAKE DRAMATIC IMPROVEMENTS IN MY LIFE.

Mario Sanfrancesco & Frank Pompeani, Australia

THROUGH BOB I HAVE EXPANDED MY VIEW OF WHAT'S ACHIEVABLE; I NOW KNOW THAT IT IS ABSOLUTELY DO-ABLE AND THAT I CAN DO IT. I AM MORE IN CONTROL OF MY WORK TIME. IN THE LAST CALENDAR YEAR I WORKED 175 DAYS AND INCREASED MY PERSONAL PRODUCTION BY 61%. THIS YEAR I WILL WORK 170 DAYS AND HAVE AN INCREASE OF 54% PLANNED. I HAVE A GREATER UNDERSTANDING OF LEADERSHIP AND HELPING OTHERS TO ACHIEVE THEIR BEST.

BOB'S COMMITMENT TO "MONEY MATTERS" EACH YEAR HAS ALLOWED EXPOSURE NOT ONLY TO SOME OF THE GREATEST REAL ESTATE AGENTS IN THE WORLD, BUT ALSO TO EXPERTS FROM OTHER FIELDS WHICH HAVE ALSO HAD SOME POWERFUL IMPACTS ON MY BUSINESS.

BOB'S ACRONYMS SUCH AS JDI, GOI, NEXT, ARE POWERFUL BUT SIMPLE REMINDERS WHEN YOU HAVE A CHALLENGE.

BOB HAS REALLY EXPANDED MY MIND. HE IS BETTER THAN LSD, MAN!! NOT ONLY THAT I AM CONSTANTLY LOOKING FOR WAYS TO GIVE BACK, I NOW HELP STRUGGLING AGENTS IN THE OFFICE. I PRAISE PEOPLE FOR DOING A GOOD JOB, I THINK I AM MORE UNDERSTANDING AND MORE DEMANDING WITHOUT THE 'HOUNDING'.

Bob O'Toole, Washington, DC

What has his system of accountability meant to you and how have you used those systems to coach your own team?

HE DIRECTS MY FORWARD THINKING AND GIVES A ROADMAP TO MY STAFF SO WE ALL KNOW OUR RESPONSIBILITIES CLEARLY.

Lance Kammes, Chicago, IL

ACCOUNTABILITY IS EVERYTHING. IT HELPS ME STAY ON TRACK TO ACHIEVE MY GOALS AND IN TURN MY TEAM. IT ALSO IDENTIFIES WHAT YOU AREN'T DOING AND NEED TO DO.

I CERTAINLY USE BOB'S TIME HONORED METHODS OF ACCOUNTABILITY TO ENSURE TOP PRODUCERS CONTINUE TO GROW AND STRIVE IN ALL ASPECTS.

Mark Hay, Perty, AUstralia

THE 'FACE TO FACE' ACCOUNTABILITY IS ENJOYABLE AND PROFITABLE. THE SYSTEMS WORK LONG TERM.

Phil and Johnnye Summerson, Kansas City, MO

EVERY TIME I THINK ABOUT ACCOUNTABILITY I WONDER WHERE IT HAS BEEN ALL MY LIFE!!! REAL ESTATE IS THE BEST BUSINESS IN THE WORLD TO GET AWAY WITH DOING NOTHING AND NOT GETTING CAUGHT, BECAUSE NOBODY CARES!!! NOW I CHECK TO MAKE SURE BOB ISN'T LOOKING BEFORE I HAVE A COFFEE BREAK, LUNCH OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT DOESN'T LEAD TO A FACE TO FACE.

MY SON HAS JUST STARTED WITH ME AND AS I MAKE HIM ACCOUNTABLE FOR THINGS I FIND HE IS ALREADY MILES AHEAD OF WHERE I WAS WHEN I STARTED.

Bryan Barnes, Toronto, Canada

I HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED IN USING ACCOUNTABILITY AS A LEARNING AND GROWTH TOOL; BOB EXEMPLIFIES THIS. IF YOU ARE ACCOUNTABLE TO BOB, IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO LOSE FOCUS AND GET OFF TRACK.

Joe Krol, Andover, MA

BY BOB MAKING ME ACCOUNTABLE IT HAS ALLOWED ME TO MAKE MY TEAM ACCOUNTABLE - I.E. LEAD BY EXAMPLE.

Melinda Estridge, Washington, DC
