Are you tired of hearing that the key to real estate success lies in lead generation? So was I, until I discovered a game-changing truth that transformed my career. After 17 years as a paralegal, I ventured into real estate in Scottsdale, Arizona, seeking an escape from the mundane office life. Little did I know, this decision would lead me to uncover a hidden talent and revolutionize my approach to business.
Initially, real estate was simply a means to an end—a path to flexible hours, significant earnings, and perhaps even a leisurely round of golf. But life had other plans. Today, as I reflect on my journey, I can confidently say that diving into real estate was the best decision I ever made.
Back in the 80s, when Windows, Macs, and CRMs were mere concepts of the future, I found joy in creating macros on a Selectric® typewriter. These 45-character wonders allowed me to automate document drafting, revolutionizing my efficiency. As technology evolved, so did my skills. I embraced word processors, floppy disks, and later, CRMs, learning to merge documents and automate processes seamlessly.
I realized early on that if I had to do something more than once, it deserved to be automated. This belief led me to excel in both my legal and real estate careers. Today, I've climbed the ranks, owned brokerages, managed teams, and trained thousands of agents nationwide on the power of efficient lead management and engaging follow-up strategies.
My journey led me to establish ExposedAgent.com, a consulting firm, and EngageMoreCRM.com, a CRM company. I also offer drip campaigns for real estate agents through RealEstateDripMail.com, and now, I share my insights in my book, "Drip Campaign Secrets."
Through countless experiences with internet leads, I've learned a fundamental truth: the money is not in lead generation; it's in engaging, automated follow-up. This principle is at the core of my book and my approach to real estate success.
In a saturated market with millions of real estate professionals vying for attention, standing out is paramount. That's where automation, efficient lead management, and engaging follow-up strategies come into play. These tools not only save time but also ensure that leads don’t slip through the cracks.
So, before you spend hours on lead generation tactics, invest in a CRM that suits your needs. Load it with engaging drip campaigns and watch as it becomes the backbone of your success.
