Why come
A real evening, not a sales pitch
Act 1: Get licensed
The courses, the exam, the timeline and the cost for PA, DE or MD, so you leave knowing your next step.
Act 2: Your first 90 days
Brian Foraker, the owner, with a week-by-week plan from your first day to your first closing.
Q&A with Foraker agents
Agents who’ve done it, on getting licensed and what their first year was really like.
In the room
Two reasons to come in person
Food and drinks are on us.
Free professional headshots
Right after the talk, a photographer takes headshots for everyone in the room. Walk out with one for LinkedIn or your agent profile.
The Dream Board at the door
At check-in, write what your first commission will go toward on a sticky note and add it to the board by the door. By the end of the night the wall is full.
Watching on Zoom instead? Both are for the room, so come in if you can.
Why Brian runs this
“I started at a big-box brokerage with a desk and ‘good luck’: no leads, no training, just monthly fees. So I built the brokerage I wish I’d had.”
Brian Foraker · Owner, licensed agent since 2016
Career Night is the evening he wishes someone had given him: the real path to a license, a real plan for the first 90 days, and the people who’ve done it.
