Story 14 - Lonely tuition coordinators

Many people have the perception that tuition coordinators work individually because they are fearful of their own clients being snatched away by other coordinators. However, tuition coordinators should work hand in hand instead to secure clients by their side. Why is that so?

Imagine having many allies whom you can rely on to get tutors for your clients. How would that feel? Indeed, there might be a chance that your client then becomes loyal to your co-broke partner in future but it can be the same for you too! Just like you refer clients to your partners, so will your partners refer clients to you. In fact, yout clients will even be touched that you have their interests at heart and they end up becoming your loyal clients for long.

Now, imagine having many other coordinators ally against you. Do you feel even more threatened because the chance of losing your client is even higher? Facing the many other choices that the opponents provide, how confident are you of servicing the parent well?

From experience, I can say that co-broking is a win-win situation because both parties stand to gain. Moreover, it does not harm to have more allies than enemies so tuition coordinators really should learn to work hand in hand.

To add on, it is lonely to work as an individual, especially when you have many cases on hand and there is no one to share the workload with you. You might get lots of commission but it can never replace yor health and time. Tuition coordinators out there, do take some time to ponder, what is it that you want to achieve in this career?
