A word from the broker

Hello G’s,

 

Guys I have something very important to say, so please do not blow this email off or take this information lightly. It is important to me to see all of my agents/peers to be successful in real estate. If we work together and bring new and important information to the table we will all profit. We need to have an outlook of helping each other out and not just helping ourselves out, Why? because the pie is infinite and it is never too small. You can never have all the business in out there in the market place.  It is very easy for people to pick up on whether you are in it for yourself or if you are in it for others. If people realize that you are in it for yourself  they will stop sharing information with you and that is bad! You individually cannot have all the information. You need others to help and support you.  Information & action are the single most important things you must have to be successful.

 

Here is some information I will like share with you all and please let me know if it happens to increase your bottom line, it is important to me to know If I have helped. The reason why some of you have not already began to take some of the steps that I am going to talk to you about; is because you have not yet had that Awe! moment or you have not yet tried it out or worked it. I am telling not to take this info lightly

 

It is very very very very important to work the internet. Why? Because that Is where everyone is going! No one is no longer making money by sending out flyers or advertising in a magazine, newspaper, radio, or even TV. Trust me I know! That is old news. If you are in the service industry you cannot reach out to someone through a postcard or a TV ad there just is not enough information being exchanged.  I have made more contacts and relationships in one day on the web than I have by advertising any other way. Here is the important information I wanted to give you, some of you might already know about it but have not yet worked it.  

 

You must join and learn everything there is to know about these social networking sites. The cool thing is they are FREE! And the most effective way to get your name out there.

 

Facebook.com

Meetup.com

Youtube.com

Activerain.com

Blogger.com

Get a website | Microsoft has a free one @ http://smallbusiness.officelive.com/

*Please email me if you know of any others

 

Also advertise yourself on Craigslist. Meetup.com will help you do that

 

Join and work these sites and you will all make double or triple what you are making now. You can’t just join them you have to have a plan. Specialize in one thing that has to do with real estate set yourself up as the expert and let others know that on these social networking sites.

 

I really do appreciate you all and I hope we all have a sense of comradery here at Gentry. I heard we have a great reputation out there through the grapevine and the reason we have that reputation is because of you!

 

I promise if one agent here is making lots of money we should all be making lots of money because we all share our information with each other. It just takes ACTION!

 

Thanks,

 

Elliot Caldwell, Designated Broker
