The INSIDERS Ep 37: Celebrating Black History Month

Sandy and Marc celebrate Black History Month with their special guest and friend Ben Baker of the Ben Baker Team of Keller Williams.

I first met our guest back in 2005 when I was doing the Marketing Round Table for Prime Lending. Ben Baker became a part of the group that met monthly to strategize and create great marketing initiatives for the month. I am excited to reunite with Ben after all these years here today to help Marc and I celebrate Black History Month.

TALKING POINTS AND GROUP DISCUSSION:

• Lead and succeed! Talk about your thoughts on this.
• Ben you focus on home owners in your community to close the gap 45% black ownership -75% white ownership gap, what is one major strategy you hope to put in play to improve minority ownership?
• What do you think it would take to get more minority owners in the community?
• What does Black History month mean to you?  Talk about your parents and your upbringing.
• How did you enter the real estate industry?
• Why do we not see more African Americans in the real estate industry?
