MARKET - Market yourself, your services, and your listings
Being successful in real estate boils down to two simple, time tested facts, marketing and perseverance. By knowing how to market yourself, your services and your listings, you will be able to do much more for your earnings and your reputation.
Marketing is something you need to do everyday, with every action. The buggest mistake a real estate professional can make is not creating enough marketing activites. Top performers live and breathe real estate. Not only should you drop flyers into letterboxes, you should also walk the neighborhood and get to know the residents as well. If you have a few expendable dollars, why not consider standing out from the crowd by creating your own post cards or even door hangs? Why use the "Open House" only as a way to show off your client's property? Do you know it is also an opportunity to demonstrate to the other residents in the neighborhood that you can go the extra mile to market your clients' properties?
By consistently marketing yourself and your services, people will begin to link your name with your service, and whenever a property needs buying or selling, you will be the first person they think of.
