That is amazing. And, it almost makes me want to be a realtor! Except for the headaches!
Thanks Roy!
Ron, It is pretty amazing. Relators have a tough job, but it can pay well. Thanks for your comment
Eric, I just signed up for the webinar. That figure for every contact just blows me away.
Eric has a system that makes farming a simple, easy and effective process, his webinar is a great example of his system. take a look.
Eric, I just signed up for the webinar and look forward to learning about your system.
Make it a great day.
My best referral source is my past clients. They have family, friends and neighbors!
Bryan, Thanks for the vote of confidence
John, glad you can make it! see you there.
Joan, That's true for many agents. What I find puzzling is that only 18% of Realtors follow up (newsletter or anything) with past clients on a monthly basis (according to NAR study). Probably why 90% say they will refer or use their agent again but only 10% actually do. Thanks for sharing your experience.
This is great information. It is easier to ask for referrals from those you know than wait for those you haven't yet met to act on your advertising. I believe in a healthy mix of both.
Good points...and I agree that a lot of Realtors forget about their past clients and concentrate only on hitting new farms. My last realtor hasn't sent me anything in the last 2.5 years since we purchased through her. I like her, but there's no loyalty left. Also in terms of mixing things up with adding value/content along with promotion -- seek out neighborhood publications. I volunteer to do our community's newsletter, and we allow advertisers. I normally reach out to a realtor to see if they can write an article for me about our neighborhood's market, or something like what home improvements are best for resale value. In addition to neighborhood publications, a lot of small towns would run articles in their magazines/papers -- good way to get some free exposure and position yourself as a resource more than a sales person!
