Time blocking, formalized. The KW Ideal Agent Schedule maps out the day a top producer would actually run — lead generation, appointments, follow-up, family. Use this as your starting blueprint.

Print or copy the Ideal Schedule template and write in the schedule that actually fits your life. Three steps to a workable week:
- Start with non-negotiables. Health, family, friends, faith — the things you won't trade. Block them first.
- Add lead generation. Recommended: 2 hours per day, every day. This is the activity that creates next month's commission.
- Layer in other business activities. Appointments, follow-up, admin, learning — in priority order.
