Everybody knows somebody who knows somebody who wants to sell a home. So why do these sellers have a hard time getting to you? On one hand they may not know exactly where to find you, and on the other hand they might not really know exactly what you can do? Here is where you come in. Just like a good infomercial, your goal is to entice the seller to “sell now” and call you at (800)… to do it.

So the first thing you do is talk to other agents about how they get their leads, they you follow the same systems they followed, with the problem being you fall subject to the same shortcomings and end up looking just like them to the sellers. (more…)

We can’t deny the fact that nowadays technology is constantly attached in our daily lives and routines. Everything we do is somehow connected with technology, whether in the office, school or home.

Every successful professional has at some point gone through training to help them reach their maximum potential, and real estate agents are no different. Training your agents, however necessary, can seem like an impossible task that sucks away all of your time and energy. If outsourcing, most run into the same problems, finding exciting topics to discuss, getting an accomplished and experienced trainer who has actually done what he is offering to you, and finding the trainer that won’t break your bank.

Some of the many pitfalls experienced by agents have to do with the recycling of ineffective tactics that produce no results. Though potential is present, unsuccessful methodology leads to stagnation and ultimately effects the prestige of your business. I offer that the proper training will eliminate the use of ineffective strategies and replace them with proven techniques sure to dominate the market. (more…)

Are you using a “Drip campaign” to stay in touch with prospects who have visited your website? If you aren’t sending them what they asked for, that campaign could backfire.

On a real estate website people generally opt in to hear from you via one of four methods:

• They say yes to a special report
• They do a search for a home
• They use the automated “what’s my home worth” form
• They send an e-mail through your contact me form

When they do this, they give you important information about themselves, and unless you use this information to be choosy about what you send them, your drip campaign can serve to annoy rather than impress.As a real estate copywriter I have occasion to visit a large number of real estate websites. As a form of market research, I occasionally I leave my name, just to see what people are sending. (more…)

For sale by owner or FSBO listings have one key problem and one solid answer; sell. Every FSBO seller knows that they need to sell their house, hence the home depot, do it yourself sign out front. The owner by no means despises real estate agents who can solve such a problem, only the agent who promises everything and delivers nothing. FSBO sellers do not know the ins and outs of the real estate business, and are therefore disadvantaged when it comes to selling homes fast. The key to approaching a FSBO seller is to keep in mind the solution you have for their previously identified problem, each time you contact them.

Solving a problem is never easy, nor is it simple to convince someone else you’ve solved the issue either. This is because most seem to have the exact same approach, never separating themselves and certainly not being innovative or forward thinking. The solution presented to the seller must be one that no other agent is willing to offer, yet guaranteed by you. (more…)
