<div dir="ltr">Good Friday to All!!! Just a few notes for everyone as we head into the Easter Weekend.  <div><br></div><div>- <b>"Lantern Loves"</b> is our new Social Outreach committee.  I have attached the logos to this email. We have already sent gifts to local nursing homes in the markets we serve!  It shows what we can do and the folks we can impact if we put our efforts to work! Be on the lookout for more ways to serve.  If you have ideas of how we can serve, please contact Melissa Yates.  Also, make sure to use #LanternLoves on your Instagram account and share our post.</div><div>- I have attached our <b>Education Calendar</b>.  Make sure you are in the right place at the right time!</div><div>- Our <b>team meeting</b> will be this Wednesday at 11am via Zoom.  Be on the lookout for the meeting invite.</div><div>- We have some <b>construction</b> going on in the Kannapolis office.  If you come by please be aware.  </div><div>- If you haven&#39;t joined our private<b> Facebook group</b> "Lantern Realty Agents and Vendors" please request membership.  Also, make sure you "LIKE" our public Facebook page "Lantern Realty &amp; Development, LLC" and share with your friends. </div><div>- MEN!!!!!  Dont forget to let me know if you will be attending our <b>Men of Lantern event on 4/22</b> at TopGolf Charlotte.  We need your responses asap.  You dont have to play golf, just come and enjoy the food and fellowship.</div><div>- LADIES!!!! We arent leaving you out.  Here is a link to sign up for our <b>First Annual Ladies of Lantern event </b>on 4/22.  PLEASE make sure you RSVP.  </div><div><a href="https://jennablacksellshomes.com/ladiesoflantern?fbclid=IwAR2K0p8InXjCIvD2A0feGG7LjPXQL9UZIVpK9jPd0yZzaPSnCFSoN8bYfsU">https://jennablacksellshomes.com/ladiesoflantern?fbclid=IwAR2K0p8InXjCIvD2A0feGG7LjPXQL9UZIVpK9jPd0yZzaPSnCFSoN8bYfsU</a></div><div>You can also access the sign up link on our private Facebook group.  </div><div>- <b>VERY IMPORTANT!!!</b>!  We need all of those agents that want to sign up for <b>leads from our website</b> to email Melissa Jackling.  We are doing a sign up sheet so the leads that are generated through our website are not given to agents that are not interested in leads.  Please send her your name.  Also, leads coming through the Lantern website will be on a 70/30 split unless the lead asks specifically for the listing agent.  We are currently working with two more lead gen sites to help you expand your business.  </div><div>- Make sure you are applying ANNUALLY for your <b>Privilege License</b> through NC Department of Revenue.  This is your responsibility, not Lanterns.  </div><div>- We have made a change on our <b>onboarding process</b>.  We are now requiring new agents to have a mentor for their first 4 transactions.  This DOES NOT apply to anyone currently on board but will apply to any new agents going forward.  So if you run across someone looking to join Lantern, make sure you tell them of the current updated requirements. </div><div>- Lastly, we are making it <b>mandatory</b> for you to have a <b>mentor</b> if you do a transaction on a type of property which you have never done.  If you have never done a commercial deal, you need a mentor.  Same with land, lake homes, vacation homes etc.  You are putting yourself at great liability by handling a transaction that you have never done before.  You are also not doing your client any favors and are violating NC License Law.  No commission is worth your license!</div><div><br></div><div>I hope you all have a blessed weekend and get to enjoy your family and friends.  <br clear="all"><div><br></div><div class="postie-attachments"><a href="https://lantern-realty.com/?attachment_id=1711"><img src="https://lantern-realty.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/lanternloves-vector-file.svg" alt="" width="1px" height="1px" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1711" /></a><br />
