buyers: September Success = Willy Wonka Mantra + Sweet Suite - 08/25/16 09:24 AM
 
Hey ActiveRainers,
Quick question - can you name this (slightly edited) tune?
 
If you want to view paradise...
Simply look around and view it...
Anything you want to, do it.
Want to change the YOUR world? 
There's nothing to it.
We'll begin...With a spin...
Traveling in the world of my YOUR creation...
What we'll see...Will defy...
Explanation.
There is no...Place to go...
To compare with your imagination...
So go there...
To be free...
If you truly wish to be.
Living there...
You'll be free...
If you truly wish to be.
 
 
Pure Imagination, lyrics sung by Willy Wonka - portrayed by the legendary and late Gene Wilder (June 11th, 1933 - August 29th, 2016) - should resonate with you on both personal and marketing levels.

Reconnect with your past clients and your leads with these free email texts (or pitches!)
It's so easy to say "hello"and to simply remind people what it is you do. Ask people how their summer is going so far. Ask your leads and clients where they went or are going on vacation. Talk about your favorite barbecue recipes and what the kids are doing during the day while school is out. These conversations will leave good impressions on people.

buyers: Hungry For Referrals & Listings? This'll Do. - 07/05/16 09:18 AM
 
Hey there,
Tim here, again, with a quick Tip & Script Of The Week.

When people aren’t fed, they’re cranky and irritable.
The same goes for your leads – when they don't feel routinely nourished, cared about, and/or spoon-fed relevant info - they will likely stomp off to one of the 2 other agents they know.

In short – remember that “satiated” (nurtured) leads and clients translate into a (financially) satisfied and successful agent (that's you).

With that said – take this advice literally. 
Treat promising leads and valued clients to some easy-on-the-wallet grub. Here are a few holidays (and accompanying email greetings) worth considering, … (0 comments)

buyers: Divide & Conquer: A Twofold Guide for your Buyers & Sellers - 06/23/16 05:48 AM
Most real estate activity happens during the months of May and August.
Now is the time to get going.
Keep in mind that the average person knows 3 real estate agents.
Eliminate the other 2 real estate agents with the steps below.
No, you can’t "make" someone buy or sell.
But you can make them think of you when they are ready to make a decision. 
For your sellers:
- Seller's Corner will help cement you as their future listings agent.
    - Email your Sellers and invite them to Your Neighborhood so you can connect 
      them to local activity and home values where they live. 
    - In order to do this, get their home and email address.
    - Put them in … (0 comments)

buyers: Summer Survey Ideas: Give A Little. Get A Lot. - 05/17/16 07:02 AM
 
Hey there,
Tim here. How are things? Are you looking forward to summer? It's been pretty warm here in the SF Bay Area. Perfect weather for an iced tea.
Come to think of it - who doesn't love a cool drink? Why not use this to your benefit and start a small raffle? You know, something easy-on-the-wallet.
Send out a short survey tailored to 2 vital groups (your Buyers and Sellers). The first 3 responders with the most thorough responses, from each category, earn a $5 Starbucks gift card. (FYI - you can actually buy and send cards online).

Look at your hand.
You’ll see it has 6 parts to it; your index finger, your thumb, your ring finger, your pinky, your (sometimes notorious) middle finger, and, of course, your palm.
 

So, what’s the “Real Estate High-Five?”
5 at-your-fingertips marketing elements that ensure you have folks in the palm of your hand when it matters most: when they're ready to buy, sell and refer. Let's take this, digit-by-digit.

The obvious is Client Relationship Manager, but I think we can dive a little deeper. 
Slide on and fasten your snorkel. It’s go time.
It can mean Continuous Reach Marketing. Each of your clients will receive a constant (and delightfully automatic) stream of information from you based on their consumer status.
Oh yes, your buyers and your sellers will be reached.
Or does it mean Consistent Revenue Maker? Let’s face it: our clients do 4.6 more deals per year than all the agents in their market. That’s enough reason right there.

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass – it’s learning to dance in the rain (and chasing the proverbial pot-of-gold at the end of the rainbow). Speaking of weather, remember to take advantage of it as a valid reason to reach out and start a meaningful conversation.
This March is your shot to make other agents (figuratively) green with envy, and (literally) make some green of your own in the process - by, well, staying G.R.E.E.N:
Guess:
Well, predict. Look into saved MLS search data. What do leads/clients need the most? What are they researching? Then, reach out and show your interest by warmly delivering relevant and useful info.
