      THE TOP 1% LIFE

      Advance Praise

      “Kathleen sums up in her book the philosophies she has been teaching in our office for years. I could comment on the eloquent way she has presented the information, but instead I will talk about results. We spend over $150,000.00 a year on Lead Generation, and the only way our agents qualify, is by attending Kathleen Black’s Training. I thought I needed to teach them a presentation, but Kathleen in her classes and her book really teach a philosophy for success. You need to understand these principles. Congratulations Kathleen!”

      —Paul Baron, Owner, C21 Leading Edge Realty, #1 Production Nationally for C21

      “This is an incredible journey that you were able to convey in what felt like an authentic and powerful way. It is clear to me that you have a phenomenal growth mindset and are able to walk through a firestorm leading a team laughing on the other side of it.

      The principles you are describing will resonate well with any business owner who wants to build a team and ultimately trade less of their own time for money. The team synergy you describe, the systems, the abundance mindset, trust and loyalty are all key cornerstones of high performing entrepreneurial teams when results win as opposed to politics.

      And last but not least, your grit and relentless desire to build on your own terms shine through this book. Your ability to grow thick skin while the world around you was constantly trying to tear you down, and the sense of guilt for not always being able to show up for your kids the way you wish you could - these points in particular all resonate with female leaders.”

      —Julia Bloom, Innovation Leader, Agile Coach

      “Having worked as a solo agent for 10 years and now as the Director of Sales on a successful Team that was coached by Kathleen’s Team and systems, I can say first-hand, without a doubt that these systems are game changers! This book is a great resource for solo agents, aspiring and current team leaders looking to control their business rather than have their business control them. It is possible to grow a successful business and Team while still having time to enjoy and experience life! Thank you Kathleen!!”

      —Joyce Blackmere, Director of Sales, The Dan Gemus Team

      “Highly recommended!

      This is a must read for team leaders, team members, or anyone thinking of starting or joining a team. Kathleen’s no nonsense, real life advice is exactly what the real estate world needs right now.”

      —Bill Madder, CEO Saskatchewan Realtors Association

      “Literally, can change your life course!

      Easy to read, profound truths and extraordinary mix of real life and proven results. You’ll feel the pull to experience 1% LIFE!!!”

      —Doug Schneider, Lead Pastor, The Embassy Church

      “Makes you remember what is important in life!

      Very insightful and inspiring. Makes you realize that if you implement the right systems in your business, you can truly enjoy the life that has been afforded by all of your hard work. Well received.”

      —Shannon Smith, Lead Conversion Specialist, Director of Sales/Coaching

      “Fantastic Read!

      The way Kathleen draws on her own life experiences, and how she overcame and dominated over obstacles and challenges was incredibly inspiring. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for ways to improve at work, at home, and at life.”
