The complete Starck Academy of Growth offering is the Chicago area’s most comprehensive free training and development program.

Starck U - Launch

Starck University gives new and experienced brokers an in-depth overview of how to manage a real estate practice from A to Z. From setting up your database, to lead generation, working with buyers and sellers, completing a strategic pricing analysis, to license law and negotiating, and much more, you will learn how to be a successful real estate broker. You will also learn business planning and using Starck’s tools to launch your business.

Starck Engage

Starck Engage is an exclusive group training that allows brokers from multiple offices to come together and collaborate while working through the 60 Days to Success Plan. This weekly video conference call allows you to learn what works for others when it comes to success habits as well as For Sale By Owner, Geographic Farming, Expired Listing, and Open House strategies.

Individualized training & mentoring

No matter what level you wish to achieve in your business, our Training & Development Team is ready to help. Trainers and technicians are available monthly in each office or online through our cutting-edge video conferencing and remote sharing software.

For new brokers, Starck offers a mentoring program. This allows new brokers to learn from both theoretical and practical knowledge to bring the best of both worlds to those that know, like, and trust in their service.

What would you say if we could show you how to increase your business by 30% to 40% in the next six months? The Ninja selling system has been proven to do just that. With Ninja you attract clients instead of chasing them.

The Ninja Selling system is based on a philosophy of building relationships, listening to the customer, and helping them achieve their goals. It is less about selling and more about how to create value for people.

The results speak for themselves. Our Ninja class of January 2018 increased their productivity by 98.3% in one year by following the Ninja path. The training is at no cost, other than reimbursement for program materials.

We do not require our brokers to use the Ninja selling system, but we do highly recommend it.

Starck success track

Starck’s Success Track will help to reinforce the essential business skills learned during the Ninja installation: Mindset, Actions, Buyer and Seller Processes that ensure the lowest chance of rejection with the highest chance of double-platinum service.

This 8-week group training is available to all who have been Ninja installed and want to take their business and life to the next level.
