Frank Monte: Black Sand Real Estate

Frank Monte founded what is now called Black Sand Real Estate in 2005. A year before, he walked out of the Cheesecake Factory, never to work there again. In striking out on his own, he found success quickly, with Black Sand Real Estate rising in spite of the real estate crash in 2008. Monte kept his business afloat by helping people who were facing foreclosure. Homeowner Answers, LLC helped homeowners get through the misrepresentation, lies, and leverage by their lenders to stay above water and avoid foreclosure in the darkest days of the Great Recession.

Many people lost their homes due to the irresponsible acts that mortgage lenders took in the lead-up to 2008. But some were able to keep their homes and avoid having their credit annihilated due to Frank Monte. “What made my company different and ultimately became a huge success story was I never charged the homeowners a dime!” Monte said. As a result, Monte became known for his work and Black Sand Real Estate survived the worst of the real estate crisis.

Frank Monte is a marketing expert who has helped several businesses and people build livelihoods.

Frank Monte: Taking on British Petroleum

Frank Monte is a marketing executive and small business owner who turned into an activist when a lawyer contacted him about the settlement British Petroleum (BP) was creating for those affected by the massive oil rig disaster and spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. Frank Monte realized that the blanket settlement BP was offering to Gulf private residents and businesses who lost countless dollars and their homes due to the spill was designed to help keep BP from paying as much as they would have to if each separate business or individual sued them individually.

So Frank Monte used his connections and his marketing skills to build a following of small businesses and residents of his community to sue BP separately. Monte set up weekly seminars explaining why this was necessary and how everyone could benefit. After a short time, “we had so many people coming on Thursday nights we ran out of seats and it became standing room only.” BP responded by slowing down the claims process in the hopes that most would drop them.

Unfortunately, it worked. Frank Monte eventually sold his claim for less than fifty percent of what it was worth, but he never gave up the fight for better environmental protection.

Approaching customer service from this experience perspective, as Frank Monte knows, is key to building and sustaining a successful enterprise. An experience-based perspective is dependent upon:

  • Empowering your employees. As team leader, it is your responsibility to empower your employees with the resources and freedom needed to address customer concerns at any point in the customer experience. Giving your staff the room needed (within reason, of course) to make things right with the customer is essential to the cultivation of customer loyalty and repeat business.

  • Fulfilling promises. Critical to a great customer experience is the fulfillment of promises. Never promise the customer anything you can’t deliver on, and always take steps to follow through on what you’ve promised to deliver.

  • Work on your writing skills. There is certainly no shortage of writing involved in law school, and sharpening your ability to write won’t hurt.
  • Study for the LSAT now. It’s never too early to begin study for the LSAT, as the test is known to overwhelm those who have failed to prepare adequately.

Frank Monte: Managing Your Small Business Successfully

Building an enterprise, as Frank Monte knows, is a big deal. The act of putting your heart and soul into something you believe in, and enabling that entity with the leadership and resources it needs not only to survive, but to thrive, is one that (most) entrepreneurs do not take lightly; particularly as many have invested their entire livelihoods in making that business successful.

A successful small business owner and serial entrepreneur, Frank Monte knows not just how to launch a business successfully, but to ensure it’s firing on all cylinders at all times. Doing so, as he knows, requires:

  • Really Knowing Your Firm. Sure, you aren’t an expert in everything; but if you don’t possess in-depth knowledge of those products/services your offering, as well as how your business is delivering those goods, it will be quite challenging to decide how and where best to take risks and grow.

  • Overseeing All Expenses. Careful tracking, monitoring and assessment of all company expenses provides you the information you need to make the best financial decisions possible, and helps you eliminate unnecessary waste before it occurs.

Frank Monte: Why Hire Retired Service Members?

Frank Monte is committed to the health and strength of his company and his community. This is one reason why he remains steadfast in his commitment to working with and hiring military veterans; professionals he knows provide an invaluable resource of dedication, diligence and loyalty, and that help strengthen his enterprise while providing the framework his firm needs to thrive well into the future.

Frank Monte (10)

For Frank Monte, hiring retired servicemembers is the right thing to do; not only as a way to support those who have put their lives on the line for their country, but as a way to tap into a vast, useful resource of professionals who know how to get the job done. Hiring military veterans provides employers the benefit of:

Adaptability. Veterans tend to have considerable experience adapting quickly to changing situations, particularly under extreme pressure.

Leadership. Those who have served tend to know how to take the reins when needed, and aren’t afraid to do what it takes to meet and exceed organizational objectives.

Frank Monte, Founder of Centurion and longtime success in the business community, is setting the foundation for a future in law, nearing ever closer to law school each and every day. As he knows, doing so adequately is a multi-layered undertaking, involving:

–Careful selection of the right undergraduate courses. While it’s true that law schools accept students who have majored in just about any subject that’s out there, those who have studied such subjects as philosophy, international relations and classics tend to fare a little better in law school curriculums than others.

–Refining your writing skills. Law school courses tend to be writing-intensive, so taking steps to practice and refine your skills can provide a much-needed leg up once you’ve reached the next level.
