Your Surroundings Matter

Just a couple of days before Halloween when I was driving into work I was listening to a Christian radio station; the topic was what you thought about letting your kids watch scary movies like Saw, Halloween or Night Mare on Elm Street this time of the year.

Pls watch this 1 minute video I created - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVVfk_tXTZE

It really got interesting when one of the DJ’s said that growing up his wife had never watched scary movies and she is not afraid of strange noises or being alone at home even when he is away.

What you surround yourself with - is what you become. Why are some agents having their best year and others thinking about getting our of the business? What we focus on expands and if you tune into the national media and believe all the negative publicity you will subliminally sabotage yourself.

One of our new brand new agents started calling FSBO’s as soon as she obtained he license and within a couple month period had listed 11 of them. Other agents too were focused on the shifting market to realize the opportunities in front of them. She was too new in the industry to have been poisoned by the national media and opinions to know that she "shouldn't have been having the results that she was having."

When were returning to work from lunch last week, one of our agents mentioned that he should have taken a photo of all the new cars in the parking lot with dealer tags the last time he was there. Wish I would have seen it.

In Napoleon Hill's book, Think and Grow Rich, the author writes that the a persons income is the average of their 10 closest friends. If you're struggling, maybe now is the time to make some new friends with huge goals, big dreams and a positive attitude.

Quit watching the news, surround yourself with educational and motivational material. Plug into a positive group of friends and co-workers that can help you advance your career.

Marketing Your Real Estate Business on a Shoestring Budget


If you are a new agent or just plateauing or you simply need a fresh perspective and are on low budget....what are your options? Here is what our Keller Williams Agent Mastermind Group in Conroe, TX came up with:

  1. Attend networking events like the Chamber After Hours, etc.
  2. Door knock to introduce yourself to a farm area (April Sound, Panorama Village, Seven Coves, Walden, Bentwater, Del Lago, etc.)
  3. Direct mail - Postcards be sure you can track the responses
  4. Set up your free KW or HAR website and ensure it is working properly
  5. Place free ads on Craigslist
  6. Call, mail or deliver something of value to FSBO’s & Expireds
  7. Blogging - become a neighborhood or area expert vs. only a real estate expert (this takes time, but can be very lucrative in the long term in areas like Willis, Conroe, Montgomery, New Waverly, Elkins Lake, Hunstville)
  8. Hold Open Houses, sure to let the neighbors know in advance with a flyer or door knocking
  9. Handwritten notecards to your SOI
  10. Call Team Leaders or agents in other offices and introduce yourself as a potential referral partner
  11. Inexpensive, very targeted ads on Facebook
  12. Develop and implement a USP - Unique Selling Proposition (something that differentiates you from the competition)
  13. Give away free information (ex. free list of “top 10 buys in any area you specify”, free report “How to prepare your home to sell quickly and for top dollar.”)
Lots of great suggestions. What are your favorites?
