This week I received a Lifetime Membership award in the Presidents Round-table from the West Maricopa County Regional Association of REALTORS® (WeMAR).  I received the lifetime award for three years of consistent top-producing sales volume.  I also was awarded the 2008 Presidents Round-table award for Sales Excellence.  WeMAR has over 2,000 active Realtor® members.  Both awards were made possible by my 2008 sales volume, which is a direct result of my wonderful clients, who have continuously referred friends, family and acquaintances to me.

I obtained my real estate license on December 15, 2004.  My production levels has increased each year since.  After the awards ceremony I was asked how did you do it and what does it take to be a top producer.

  • It's all about referrals.  Without all of my past clients, I could have not achieved such honors.  I appreciate all of my clients, their referrals and their support and I thank them very much.
  • It's all about people.  I enjoy working with people.  I get my joy from seeing people happy and satisfied when I find them the right house.
  • It's about being honest with buyers and sellers.  Not giving them unrealistic or irrational expectations.
  • It's all about processes.  Processes have been developed for all scenarios.  I have checklists galore. 
  • It's all about marketing.  Market yourself in all venues, internet, Active Rain, social networking, websites, blogs and print.
  • It's all about knowing your market and your product.  Meticulasly knowing what model sold for, its location, upgrades as well as positives and negatives.
  • It's all about having a great specialty team that supports your interests. This includes my assistant, accountant, attorney and general manager.
  • It's all about relationships.  Having positive meaningful relationship with other Realtors®.
  • It's all about hard work.  Not being afraid to work 10 hours a day and wake up to do it all over again.

Would I do it even if there was no award, yes it's all about the people.

 hi Leolinda, first congrats on the award. Second, re "It's all about referrals.  Without all of my past clients, I could have not achieved such honors"...

 Absolutely, over 1/2 of my biz now comes from referrals. No matter what biz we're in, building a happy, loyal clientel is the best way to grow.

Leolinda - That is fantastic! I'm so excited you have achieved this award three years in a row! Now that is impressive! It seems every time we talk, you have so much business and on the go, I love it. You energize me and no doubt we can learn from you immensely! We received our license the same year, how cool is that? I love doing this business simply for the friendships I develop through my clients and other associates that are positive, uplifting and inspiring as YOU! Congratulations Lady!!

Robert, It really has worked for me.  BTW, do you have any relatives in Hilo?

Marti,  Yes, you are absolutely correct.  Happy clients makes the repeat business possible.

Bo, We all have "doomy" markets.  Just keep your clients satisfied.  Best of luck to you!

Congratulations on your success!  It's great to hear a successful story like yours when the media is so hyped on telling everyone how bad the economy is today.  I'm getting out my referral list right now and making phone calls!  Thanks for the encouragment!
