Great advise for keeping your name out in the Real Estate Community. I love to volunteer so its a win - win for me. It also fun to have the office sponsor local events. You can volunteer time if money is an issue. Via Mike Cooper (Winchester Real Estate Sales, Cornerstone Business Group Inc):
There are a lot of ways to find real estate leads, but it's always nice when the real estate leads find you. Realtors are lured into spending a lot of money trying to "get found." There are company and personal websites, click-through sites, homes-magazines, yellow pages advertising, overpriced online marketing companies that promise they can make you a Realtor goddess or at least deliver the moon and . . . ca-ching, ca-ching, ca-ching!
Ironically, a lot of these efforts are spent on the elusive online tech savvy buyer. Approximately 89% of home buyers start their real estate search on the Internet. That doesn't mean they will pick a Realtor from that Internet search. They may, but they may not. That brings me to my point. There are a lot of people around you that have real estate needs.
How do you find people who need your real estate services? We already  know about knocking on doors, calling expired listings and visiting FSBOs, but there are other inexpensive or free ways to get known, such as:
-
Volunteer at your kid's school - schools always need volunteers - and there are a lot of people represented by those kids.
-
Sign on to do a Habitat for Humanity project. Again, there are a lot of people involved in Habitat who have real estate needs.
-
Talk to a local radio station about becoming a local expert on real estate. Radio stations always need a "go to" person to call up when a related topic comes up. You will be the voice of the local real estate market.
-
You can do the same thing with a local TV station. You become the face and the voice of the local real estate market.
-
Don't leave out the local paper. They need experts too, and they love free services. Don't we all?
-
Offer real estate related classes to your community. People want to know about short sales, or the impact of a deed in lieu or a foreclosure. They want to know how to buy as a first time buyer. Partner with a local lender and offer a mortgage class sponsored by both companies.
-
Blog, blog, blog - people will find you. If you've got something to say, blog it!
- Offer to help the local "Welcome Center" by developing a local information packet which is sponsored by you in "BIG" letters.
-
Pay for a sign that hangs in center field at the local baseball field. Put your name, company name, phone number and website address on it. Then sponsor a game night and supply inexpensive gifts for participants. You can probably get hot dogs donated by a local grocery store.
-
Think outside of the box.
 You want to be creative (not pushy, overbearing or obnoxious). Your goal is to stand out from the crowd. Think each idea through. Open your eyes my friends and see the opportunities that are all around you.
It's Great When Real Estate Leads Find You

I don't usually recommend companies on-line, But I recently Ordered 100 "Free" postcards to send to my clients on VistaPrint. All I had to pay for was shipping. You can opt to pay for additional goodies. I.E envelopes, upload a logo, things like that. It was easy to do and many designs to choose from. They have too many items to list and they offer "free deals" all the time!
