What Agents Have Written About
Todd Slaughter as Their Real Estate Broker

Just a note to say "Thank you" for the many hours I've taken from your busy day or weekend to be my coach and to explain in detail the answers to all my concerns. If I had not chosen Prudential, with the leadership skills, our wonderful and "yes" the smartest broker we could possibly have... I know my first year as a Realtor would not have been as prosperous as it was.

So I want to commend and extend my heartfelt appreciation for all the times you've gone far beyond the call of duty, to reach out and help me. Not just to get by, but you have shared your personal experiences and skills that developed you into the success that you are today, and it doesn't go without notice.

I am looking forward to my 2nd year with Prudential with more confidence and poise for the business and it's all because of the unselfishness and leadership you transpire.

My deep appreciation,
G.P. ~ Prudential Georgia Realty - Gainesville

We sincerely LOVE this letter [Todd's personalized letter to every seller client] from Prudential to clients that List with Prudential. This makes us all look very professional and gives the seller insight on just what is happening in today's market and Prudential's strategies to market their property at a "full speed ahead" concept despite all the "doom & gloom" news media reporting. The video is certainly an innovative and inspirational awaking to our clients about our brokerage firm. Great letter and thank you!!

I am amazed!!!! This company just keeps moving to the cutting edge. Just as it occurs to me that it would be nice to have some thing [new technology], PGR announces that it is being added. How awesome!! Thanks for it all.

Just wanted to say thanks for the coaching session. We appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to ensure we "newbies" are properly equipped with the knowledge we need to be successful. We are looking forward to the next session, sounds like it will be standing room only.

This e-mail is to express my thanks to you for your phone call on Friday evening.

First of all, it spoke volumes to me that as I was already sitting down for a meal with my family for my brother's birthday, you were still at the office working away. Your dedication to the company and your profession is obvious.

Secondly, I was very impressed --and thankful-- that you carefully went over the contract that I turned in on my personal home and thought enough to call me to suggest a better way to structure the commission agreement so that I wouldn't be personally taxed and the company would still receive its deserved compensation for all the great marketing it provides. My family was equally impressed after I explained what the call was about.

I feel certain that there are not many brokers with other companies that would take the time to look out for one of their agents in that way. Actions like that continue to make me proud to be affiliated with Prudential Georgia Realty's Gainesville office.

As you can see, I have copied this e-mail to Dan [President/CEO]. He deserves to know what a great job his leadership in Gainesville is doing on a daily basis.

Thank you for affording me the opportunity to work here at Prudential.

I feel very undeserving of the honor of #1 Individual Sales Associate in the company. I feel everything that I ever accomplish, first of all is only because of the graciousness of God. Secondly, I never achieve anything on my own, but it is always a group effort of many individuals in the company, including yourself, [short list of agents and staff], and any number of agents that I may have asked questions or advise of.

I am blessed to have a job that I love, and I am also blessed to be working with such a great group of individuals who care about each other. (And by the way!) I hope I did not embarrass you too bad yesterday. I don't handle surprises too well, and boy was I really surprised!!

Thanks Again!

I know I have told you how much I appreciate all you do and I really should do it more often. I can't imagine how hard a decision you had to make but I want you to know that I am grateful for what you do to try and make us all better agents and Prudential a better company.

Most of all I wanted to thank you for standing up and always trying to do what is right. Sometimes in this world, it would be much easier to go along and not rock the boat. I appreciate you and what you stand for.

May God always Bless you and hold you in the palm of his loving and caring hands.

I'm sorry to hear about [an agent I asked to leave the company]. Not sure what happened, but I trust your judgment in maintaining a positive work environment within the office.

Todd, you communicated this news professionally and it was well versed! I know that must have been a difficult decision... and will probably be a difficult situation for a while. Please let me know if I can do anything to help.

Todd, ... thank you for the opportunity you gave me a year and a half ago to become part of the Prudential family. I know I made the right choice and hope you feel the same. [I do ~TRS]

I appreciate the relaxed and easy manner in which you help us along the way and your willingness to do so at any hour. I hope in the not-too-distant future I will be able to generate more. I appreciate you, and thanks.

Todd, I just wanted to thank you again for the lovely Christmas gift. I have glanced through the book and there is a wealth of information and I look forward to reading, applying and polishing these etiquettes in my business and personal encounters.

I am truly grateful for the opportunities as well as the patience and encouragement you have shown me during my first year. I am looking forward to my second year with Prudential Gainesville and the endless possibilities that lie ahead. Warmest Regards,

Todd, Thank you so much for our Christmas lunch. I loved getting to know each person better. It gave me a new respect and love for each one.

You have a great office full of people. Everyone is so nice and fun to work with, and I really respect you, even when I argue with you!

Dear Todd, [the gift book given] was a very enjoyable, informative read, a good refresher course on manners. ... to say I appreciated the gift you sent to all of us. And also to say, when it comes to being kind and courteous and mindful of others, you do lead by example. You always point me in the right direction.

Hi Todd, I just wanted to take a quick minute to say thank you so much for the time you took to speak with me yesterday. I know you consider it to be part of your "job" so to speak, but from what I hear you go beyond what most other brokers do. I truly appreciate the time you took to explain so much to me; it eased my mind a great deal. I hope you have a great night and I shall see you around the office tomorrow. Thanks Again.

Thank you for the tickets to last night's [cancer fund raising] concert. I did enjoy it.

The lady I took with me is a client I did not know until I listed her home the week prior to my move to Prudential. Since my meeting her, she has been diagnosed with [a serious, life threatening illness]. Yet she laughs a lot. In the 70's she took the real estate course and took real estate law. She listened to those around her who told her she could not succeed in real estate due to [excuses].

While I was taking her home, she said that after being around Prudential Realtors last night she wished she had pursued a career in real estate. She observed the way our people were so caring and considerate. Our people made her feel welcome and important.

I especially want to thank you for visiting with us several times during the concert. You could have been with your date enjoying the concert yourself instead of trying to make sure everyone else was having a good time. I have never had a "boss" or Broker who went that kind of extra mile for me.

Stacey and Emily are always so nice and greet me with a smile when I come off the elevator into the office suite or into their office space for assistance. All the [Prudential] Realtors I have met so far have just been wonderful and helpful.

I was terrified at making a career change. I had become so accustom to the way "things" were done at [a competing company] and was afraid I would not "fit in" if I made the change. This has not been the case at all.

I want to say "Thank you Prudential" for making my move a pleasant experience.

Mr. Forsman [President & CEO] and Mr. Louis [Sr. Vice President],

I received my 90 day review this week with Todd Slaughter and wanted to share with you some of the same "things" I shared with Todd.

First, let me say I am not a "fly by night" person or a young idealistic person. I spent over 20 years as the Pastor's wife of a successful Pastor. During that time and since his "moving to a higher calling" I've held several positions in the communities where we pastored as well as being a Realtor for the past seven years.

Now, to hand out my roses:

I have never worked with anyone who has been as encouraging to me as Todd. Each week I get at least one e-mail and a telephone message of encouragement. This is along with his personal greetings and words of encouragement. He has an open door policy which can not be easy with 70+ agents... suppose each of us took 1 hour a week of his time....???? I was [one of a dozen] the winner of 2 tickets to a recent John Jarrard Concert and his staff went out of their way to see if the lady with me and I needed anything, if we were enjoying the concert, etc. They came by our table a couple of times each... you would have thought they were personally hosting the concert. This made a big impression on my guest as well as me.

Todd is always putting challenges out for those who will take advantage of them (vacations, concert tickets, ball game tickets, etc.).

Todd has the equipment, supplies, computer programs, etc. that I need to assist me in being a better Realtor. This has not been the case in the other 2 agencies I have worked with as a Realtor.

The TeamBuilder concept, the extra commission for in-house sales, etc. are wonderful.

Back on the local scene, Todd and his staff are always very helpful and friendly. From the time I step off the elevator and Emily greets me with her beautiful smile, Stacey smiles and speaks and both of these ladies have always been so very gracious in assisting me with becoming acquainted with doing things "The Prudential Way".

I feel Todd has pulled together a great team and they along with the Realtors that make up the Gainesville office have made me feel very welcome and comfortable and that I am a member of a great team.
