So What’s The Buzz With Star Power?
By Michael on Dec 16, 2009 in Videos
michael krisa and Alex Charfen discuss the future of Star Power
At the beginning of December in Las Vegas there was a gathering of Howard Brinton’s Star Power members and an announcement was made.
Star Power (the brand) had been purchased and as a result would be continuing on for years to come.
Alex Charfen was the buyer and will be leading the Stars into the future with Howard still involved to offer council.
Congratulations and Continued Success I say!!
One of the things that has always impressed me about Howard Brinton was his openness to embrace and share new ideas … even if they weren’t always his!
Frankly he encouraged agents to explore different coaches, trainers and LEARN what they could and then share with others.
It’s just like ice cream … when was the last time you went to buy ice cream and the only flavor available was vanilla?
Fortunately there is no ONE flavor … you get to try several before you find a favorite … and better still … it doesn’t have to be just one.
Real Estate Unplugged, Star of the Month they are flavors for you to enjoy not to say one is better or best.
In this video interview I did with Alex we discuss that and:
- The future of Star Power
- The Challenges ahead
- Dispelling the myths regarding Real Estate Unplugged
- Mutual co-operation
I hope you enjoy this video (apologies for the quality of the recording) and please leave your comments below.
All Good Wishes,

Great interview. It’s great to see both you and Alex together dispelling all the myths and rumors that have been circulating amongst all the different real estate circles on and off the web. I’m delighted to know you’ll be happily co-existing!

I enjoyed your interview and am happy you are getting the word out that Star Power is alive and ready to thrive once again. I was at the Las Vegas Star Advance on December 4th and the energy level was VERY high among those in attendance. Thank you for doing this interview!

After 5 years moving from one of the top Realtors in my area to working part time on dialysis, I received a kidney transplant In late April, and I have recently returned to working full time!
For years, I have been a member of Star Power, and was saddened to learn that Howard has cancer.
Thank you for continuing a WONDERFUL program! Please be sure to keep me informed and updated.
God Bless Howard and his family!
