Why does an Irishman have an Italian name?

I have no idea - maybe it's really O'Buffini but he wanted to make it less Irish.

Cool Cat, that's exactly the kind of stuff I want to do.

Changeagent and Prodigy,

If you want to further your real estate career check out 100 Days to Greatness by Brian Buffini.

Buffini is a motivational speaker - he touches on everything under the sun. "100 Days" is time well spent. The follow up calls you get trying to sell you the coaching program - Not so much....

Buffini says his mentor is Zig Ziglar. They are much the same. He is basically the "by referral" program. Good stuff to implement for any profession.

I'm going to shift my opinion just a bit - I like some of what Buffini teaches. After some consideration, I find his policy of pestering people for referrals to be somewhat obnoxious...but otherwise, he has some good stuff to share.

Good question! I understand people not wanting to have to hear such content in a training! I'm not anti-relgious and in fact am a Christian, but it did bug me when I went to a WCR (Women's Council of REALTORS) meeting and someone was at the podium reading from the bible...

I agree, Buffini could be a bit pestering. I also like Jennifer Allen, but I find her lack of asking for referrals disturbing. I take a bit from him, a bit from her and tailor it.

I took 100 Days to Greatness. No mention of God at all that I can remember. Good course though. I would say anyone who can should take it.

Bump - remember when that was used all the time - lol

I was just reading some of the comments about Buffini and noticed and agreed with what Perky posted above.

Then I had one of those moments where I also realized that we are all salespeople - most of us are involved somehow in the sales of real estate - and there is nothing more pesky and obnoxious than a salesperson when you don't need one - and never around when you do. Have you ever walked onto a car lot to just 'look'?

Late to the game on this one.
Dario Franchetti, Indy 500 winner and married to Ashley Judd is also an Irishman with an non Irish name.

What is a Buffini?

Is Buffini still around? I used to get a lot of emails regarding his programs, but that seems to have stopped.
