Join us live for The Four Personality Types, where you’ll learn how to use the D.I.S.C. method to build trust faster, reduce friction, and guide conversations with clarity and confidence. You’ll
discover how to identify different personality types in just moments, and how to shift your communication to meet people where they are.

Whether you’re presenting to sellers, showing homes to buyers, or leading your team, understanding who you’re talking to—and how they think—can be the game-changer that sets you apart.

What you’ll gain in this live class:
• A simple, powerful breakdown of the D.I.S.C. personality types
• How to spot each type through tone, body language, and behavior
• Do’s and don’ts for clear, effective communication with each style
• Real-world examples, interactive scenarios, and quick-reference tips
• A framework to tailor your scripts, presentations, and follow-ups

This class isn’t just theory—it’s a hands-on training designed to help you connect faster, close easier, and build lasting relationships. You’ll walk away with practical tools you can use right away.

Show up curious. Leave confident.
