How to Produce Leads for Agents

If you're subscribed to my e-zine, it's because you're searching for answers on how to initiate relationships with real estate agents, or if you have some already, how to secure greater loyalty that yields more loans.
 
Today's article affects both sides, new and existing relationships. In all my years of research and working with agents, there's clearly one solution that sticks out over any other that'll get you more relationships and more loans.
 
If you want more business from agents, learn to give them it first. I realize that this is easier said than done. But have hope and read on...you may be a bit surprised with how easy it really can be.
 
Print this article and discuss at your next sales meeting. Use it to brainstorm ideas.


A Real Case Example

 
One of my students, using my program - Become an Agent Magnet, learned how to generate leads for agents and leverage the experience into building a profitable, loyal relationship that's made her job easier.
 
What makes her example extra-worthy is that she used my methods with an ERA agent. And if you're not familiar with ERA, it's a nationwide real estate firm with their own in-house mortgage company. And the brokers lean heavily on agents to use it. But utilizing a proven strategy, my student found a breakthrough and created an ultra-positive result for herself.
 
Ok, back to the example...like I said at the onset, if you want more from agents, give it first, and that's exactly what she did. She concentrated her efforts over a four-month period with one particular ERA agent.

Side note - If you have my program, Become an Agent Magnet, page 19 in the workbook describes how to target the right agents. Being selective is the only way to develop quality relationships without headaches and leverage it into new ones.

What About the Leads?

I know it's a great story, but you're still wondering about the leads right? Here's that answer....sorry, I mean question - do you market your clients regularly?
In other words, how often do your clients hear from you by phone, by mail, by email, by press release, by promotional event, by news article, by word-of-mouth, etc.?
 
Do you get the idea? The million dollar income producers I've personally worked with have one thing in common: their clients hear from them at least 36 to 48 times annually, blending every marketable idea imaginable to extend their service after the sale.
 
So don't just offer great service during the sale - offer it afterwards, and it'll rain referrals, referrals that you can give as leads to agents.
 
Your best investment is investing into your clients, people who already know and trust you. Part of your marketing strategy should include converting your clients into an outside sales force - evangelists.
 
As simple as it sounds, that's what my student did. She began marketing her clients aggressively, but not so aggressive that it turned people off. And her efforts produced leads...quality leads because it came from people she trusted.
 
And as you can imagine, when the agent realized the impact, he began evangelizing discreetly about her in his office. That effort produced another introduction to an agent in his office who referred a client to her.
 
I realize I'm sharing an isolated example. But if you're not marketing to your clients and you consistently deliver great service...you're losing money, referrals and the possibility of a better lifestyle.
 
I'm not saying that marketing to agents is easy, but it sure is simple. If you haven't considered my program, Become an Agent Magnet, before - won't you consider it now? It's a small price that could turn out to be your next best investment.
