My 'Me Agreement' Has Everything To Do With My Database

I have had a database ever since I got into real estate some 20+ years ago. When I started, it was the 4x6 cards. I must say they worked darn well. Then I invested in Top Producer and it became even simpler to keep my database updated and on track. But alas all the extra's TP offered were not being utilized proficiently which made it more expensive than it's return. Then one day I had a conversation with another top agent in my office about databases and what we use. His CRM was inexpensive but powerful so I  made the Executive decision to switch and give it a try.

Now that I have been using this CRM for two years I must say it is perfect for me and I have not found it to be cumbersome, expensive or offering more than I would actually use . Nope all of that was just fine and dandy. But this holiday season a huge uh oh hit me in the face as I was sending out cards, calendars and such. The huge uh oh was me!! And that's why my 'Me Agreement' has everything to do with my Database.

As I was going through my database I realized there were  conversations, meetings, phone calls etc that I never recorded or set for follow up. There I was looking at a name and going... 'I spoke with them... what was it about now'???? I also noticed a few names missing. Really???? You mean I forgot to add to my datatbase too? Ok so they were recent but still!!

So I made a 'Me Agreement' that at the end of each day I would record in my datatbase everything that had to do with a client, old or new. No uh oh's this new year. My 'Me Agreement' Has Everything To Do With My Database

So there it is. No forgetting this new year. I not only made a 'Me Agreement' through Echosign and printed it out but I also just made an announcement by posting for all to see.

It's an agreement that is going to make a world of difference to my life.
