Remember when you were five-years-old and your mother took you aside, bent over and said
"Sweety...NEVER TALK TO STRANGERS! OK?!"
Well it's sage advice save for the fact that you're in Real Estate now and your business depends on your ability to turn strangers into friends, and friends into clients!
If you already have a large referral based business, more power to you!
For those of you that don't and want business NOW, there's nothing more powerful than shaking hands and meeting new strange faces. If you think blogging is the way to go and writing a Local Niche Blog will have the leads pouring in, there's a way to accomplish both (of course by "both" I mean write for your blog and shake hands at the same time).
I said it then and I'll say it again... Get your camera, get out there and get involved with your local community! You'll gather tons to write about and in the process of engaging and networking you might pick up a client or two.
You're in the Real Estate Sales business...talking to strangers is the one parent rule that you're supposed to break!
Don't you think?
