ERA Express: April 2017 Edition
Rookie of the Year Spotlight

Want to Be The Best? Be a Leader First.

For Bill Olson, being ERA Real Estate's national Rookie of the Year is not just about production, it's about being a leader. A resident of Charleston, South Carolina, Olson came from a restaurant background. Two and a half years ago he met Eddie Wilder, broker/owner of ERA Wilder Realty, while waiting on his table. Olson mentioned he was looking to buy a house and Wilder left him with a business card that said "Happy house hunting." The low-pressure, service-oriented approach made an impression on him and he kept in touch, ultimately changing careers and quickly becoming a leader in his office and market.
