“ERA’s many formalized programs and platforms combined with sophisticated technology and tools will provide an incredible steppingstone for our agents to enhance their performance, compete at a higher level and earn more market share. While I have enjoyed supporting my agents in their professional development, I knew we needed a new level of support to bring our company to the next level.
