What do Craigslist, Zillow, Backpage, and Point2 have to do with you? Nothing. Nothing at all. If you are just now signing up for these, then you are behind the curve. If you haven't signed up at all, then you probably didn't know a curve existed.
I want to share a few "firsty's"??? with you as inspiration that its worth giving things a shot:
#1. Yellow Foreclosure List signs - Sold two homes in '08 on a $300 investment.
#2. Craigslist Boise - Before there were 10,000+ listings there were 1,000 listings. I sold 5 homes in 08 on a FREE investment.
#3. REOBOI.com and Sellvi.com - $595 per year. Do numbers mean anything at all? Over 300 leads and $30,000 in direct monies brought in from these websites. Thats what we call R.O.I.
#4. Postcards - yes they work. Obtained a $3 million dollar listing from a .75 cent postcard.
#5. Real Estate Book - it isn't about the print advertising, it is about the fact that we are willing to think outside of the box and create a publication that can be distributed and mailed all over the territory/state. I can't put a number on this.
Maybe it isn't about being first. Maybe it is about loving what you do, thinking outside of the box, and doing whatever it takes to make this business work.
-- Please share a time when you have taken a risk or thought outside of the box and found it paid off for you!

Hi Nick. Yes you're right. It's not being first in the finish line in this kind of game as long as we groove well. Everything goes fine with me in my business with this kind of curve. It's a pain sometimes because we have to be patient but investing time and effort were paid off. Good luck to us..
