Hot Summertime Prospecting Tip for You!

Before I tell you this tip, let me ask you, what industry throughout the country is hiring professionals from May up until the end of August?  Did you think of it?  The education industry!!  That's right!

  So, now that you are focused on this segment that will be doing a lot of interviewing and recruiting AND causing people to RELOCATE, think about how you can get in front of these folks BEFORE they start looking for a Realtor.

How can you do this?  One way is to put together a nice informational relocation package customized for this segment and call the Central Office of the school system and ask for the HR manager.  Then ask them to lunch so you can tell them of your idea that will help them be more successful in their recruiting efforts.  HR Managers love to get taken to lunch!!

What is your idea?  That you are willing be on their recruiting team to help SELL the community to the prospects so the administrators can focus on the candidate, the offer and what they know best, education!  With you taking the prospects out on the town and educating them on the housing market, the things to do, the shopping, the dining, the night life, etc., you are going to be a huge asset them to in ensuring that all of the open positions are quickly filled.

Don't forget to call the principals of all the local schools too!  They are going to be doing most of the interviewing and trying to land the best teachers they can.  They are going to love your idea and then they are going to be calling you throughout the year and for years to come!!

While I am on the education industry, don't forget the tech schools, community colleges and universities.  For them, you'll want to include the Department Heads for the different schools.

I hope this tip helps you get some prospective buyers soon.  And, don't forget that this concept applies to ALL INDUSTRIES so get out and start talking to Human Resource Managers everywhere you can.

Also, don't forget for every relocation, there could be a listing referral opportunity too.

Call me anytime if you need me to pre-approve your buyers over the phone up until 9PM EST M-F and 7PM S-S.  Our pre-approvals include closing conditions so you'll know what issues you are going to be up against within 30 minutes of giving me the referral.  Call me and try us out!
