Here’s what past attendees are saying about Larry Kendall, the other Group speakers and their Ninja Retreat experience. (These are unsolicited comments sent to The Group, Inc. about one week to one month after the retreat).
The Ninja Retreat was the best real estate event I have ever attended. Thanks for your hospitality at the retreat. You helped make our first trip to Colorado a great one!

I wanted to let you know how very excited our agents and managers are about the Ninja Retreat. We left Fort Collins with a lot of enthusiasm and passion. You and your firm are a great example for the real estate industry. I applaud you and your agent’s efforts. All of your speakers were fantastic and I look forward to sending another group of agents to experience “The Group Difference.”

Thank you on behalf of all of us at Ruhl and Ruhl! I have received many emails from my agents about how your seminar was a life enhancing experience. You are absolutely having a significant impact on my company and the real estate industry. Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge. You are truly an inspiration.

This retreat has changed my thinking forever! I look forward to many hours processing and developing a plan of action based on the principles I learned at the retreat. Thanks for the lifesaver this information will be for my future clients and business.

How does one express thanks for the gift of self realization? I have chosen to exist in an industry that has had agents duped into believing that this is how it has to be. Thanks for waking me up. Your hospitality and business truly are first class. I hope our paths cross again.

I had thought in my 57 years I had a multitude of various experiences but yours is at the top of my list. I had hundreds of “Ah-Ha’s” . Thank you for your agents sharing and caring.
Kathy Williamson
Vice President of The Norton Agency
Gainesville, Georgia
Thank you so much for the Ninja Retreat. It was so informative and down to earth. I know if a person really does use the information you shared with us, their business as well as personal life will change drastically. I feel very blessed to have attended your retreat and blessed that I work for someone like Caroline Ruhl who has the vision that she does. Thanks again and God bless.

I cannot thank you enough for putting on the Ninja Retreat. You have so much to offer as a person and a company that it was inspiring. I am now more focused and dedicated than ever to approach my life as well as my business “100% full on.”

This has been a life changing experience. I am ready for the next level. Thanks for having us.
Pam Wendt
Ruhl and Ruhl Realtors
Moline, Illinois
Thanks to you and your partners for everything. Your dynamic presenters were wonderful. It made a difference for me and I learned a lot. You and your partners have accomplished a great program in your Ninja selling by (1) basing its concept on user friendly principles of market reality, and by (2) making it a part of a balanced life rather than as an end in itself. I feel that I experienced a look into a significant part of real estate’s future. I admire the work you’re doing.
Vern Janssen
Reece and Nichols Realtors
Kansas City, Missouri
I can’t thank you and your company enough for all the insight and change in mindset you have given me. I have been able to “infect” our office with the ninja philosophy. Your insight into starting a brand new company has been invaluable. Although we have been Realtors for some time, the change in our approach has done wonders for our company. I am happy that I have been fortunate to attend your retreat twice. I look forward to attending again next year if you put one on. You have truly made a difference in our lives and we can’t say enough how grateful we are for your sharing of ideas, attitudes and strategies. You are one of a kind.
Ron Cedillo, CRS

Just wanted you to know how much I enjoyed being with you and your partners last week. It was truly life changing. We have all come back energized to implement what we learned. P.S. The food was fabulous!

Even a week or so removed from your inspiring workshop, and The Janet Jones agents’ hearts are all still afire! Incredible! I have sent Mastery to many friends and they get the bug and “get it,” too … just trying to help my fellow man! Thank you, and Harleen, and Nate, and Wynn, and your sweet daughter … and everyone at The group for hosting such an extraordinary workshop! Do you know how many lives you have impacted for the better?!
Katherine Melhorn
The Janet Jones Company
Little Rock, Arkansas
Your message is just what I needed to hear. Your people are so learned, sincere, and honest in sharing their experiences with others. I only wished for all my family (husband and 3 grown children) to be with me to hear everything! It is a great philosophy for living one’s life to the best and highest! Thank you for allowing Walt Frey and others to bring the message to us in Austin, but nothing is quite like sharing the 2-day seminar in picturesque Fort Collins. Everything clicked and I was so grateful to be a part of it.
Cora Jane Farmer
Amelia Bullock Realtors
Austin, Texas
Words are so inadequate to express our appreciation for the opportunity you gave us, and the excitement we brought home. We have definitely been to the mountain! Our office is abuzz with enthusiasm! You’d be proud of the business plans that are being made. And, you would have loved our sales meeting where everyone got to tell about their “Aha’s”. I was watching the Golden Globe Awards when I heard an actress thank her producer/director for being the nicest, smartest, wisest teacher, mentor and friend. That’s you and the Groupies! You’re my role model and hero. Thank you for your generosity of spirit and your kindness.
