Product Description
An inside look at one of the world's most successful real estate companies RE/MAX was founded over 30 years ago in Denver, Colorado, based upon a revolutionary idea for a new system of selling real estate. Since then, RE/MAX has experienced over 380 straight months of explosive growth. In Everybody Wins, authors Phil Harkins and Keith Hollihan reveal how RE/MAX has achieved such phenomenal success by examining the company's strategy, culture, and leadership. Harkins -- with the full cooperation of RE/MAX -- led a research team that closely studied RE/MAX as well as comparable fast-growing companies. The team observed critical meetings, attended conventions, dug through historical archives, and conducted extensive interviews with more than 50 key RE/MAX leaders. The outcome is an insightful and engaging account of one of the world's most successful companies. Order your copy today.

 Compelling. May 11, 2007
I read this book about two years ago. This book has an ample amount of ingredients for success. This is definitely one of those types of books you can read over and over again for insight and inspiration. This book is not just tailored to RE/MAX and its concept but also structured to give one an adequate start or ongoing reference for ideas. I will save the gutts of the company's ascent for your on curiosity and review. This book is full of lessons on perseverance. Especially when at the brink of ruination.
RE/MAX represents a model of bold innovation, constant change and improvement, high levels of persistence, energy and passion. At RE/MAX, everyone's truly in business for themselves and not for the company they work in. That's the difference!
 Everybody Wins that reads this book! April 8, 2007
As a RE/MAX agent, I found the history behind the company to be most interesting. From a real estate perspective, it offers great insight into how the industry has changed over the last 35 years. From a business perspective (and that's probably this book's most valuable beneficial view) it illustrates the importance of holding onto a dream until it becomes reality.
Entertaining, motivating and enjoyable - a great book all the way around!

The Remax story is about applying everyday common sense to serving customers - the nice thing about it is that you could apply the principals espoused in this wonderful story of opportunity, growth and success for a host of regular folks to a range of retail business models and create your own success story. This book reminds us that we can all participate in serving customers and make a good living from doing it - nice easy read - well done.

Phenomenal book on the rise of the RE/MAX philosophy. It details the efforts needed to establish a new real estate business model that flew in the face of an immobile, bedrocked industry. I especially enjoyed the emphasis placed on the early years and what the founders went through to ultimately succeed--a struggle in which success, failure, and near death all played their hands. This is an emotional roller coaster for the tight-knit community of brokers who first embraced the RE/MAX brand and strove to build it into one of the largest and most recognizable real estate brokerages in the world. Great story about the determination to build a business. 4 Stars.
