Around the World in 30 Days: New Home Star Hosts Fourth Annual Sales Rally Virtually

Written by Star Report | Nov 25, 2020

Chicago, IL - On October 20-22, New Home Star hosted its fourth annual Sales Rally virtually using the leading virtual event technology, which featured globally-inspired training sessions by the firm’s leadership team, recognition, and more! This year’s company-wide event was designed upon the theme Around the World in 30 Days, which is aimed to enable employees to become the ultimate sales professional.

The three-day initiative included seven training sessions that were all themed around different countries while intertwining sales-based training relevant to the changing selling environment. Each of the sessions was paired with a challenge that agents had 30 days to complete, with the grand prize being a YETI cooler for their efforts.

The seven sessions included:

  • Shopkeeping
  • Service
  • Competition
  • Partnership
  • Market Data
  • Negotiation
  • Thrive

“Although we are seeing record-breaking sales, training is critical in providing premium service for our clients,” says VP of Organizational Development, Keith McKinney. “It’s also what allows us to fuel our award-winning culture and to attract and retain top talent within the industry.”

In addition to powerful training sessions, there were great highlights and recognition for top performers during an award ceremony that was hosted virtually. The “year in rewind” ceremony recognized our top performers from the last 12 months on every level of the organization including our Corporate, sales, and leadership staff.
