Amen brother, truer words were never spoke.
It’s not who you know, it’s who knows you as a trust worthy, can do, Realtor Icon.
Contact > Conversation > Connection > Discovery > Service/Help > Get Hired/Referred.
You gotta make Contact to write Contracts.
Nice reminder. You have my vote.

Lots of things get us to the table, it is up to us when AT the table to listen, connect, and prove we can get the job done. Getting out of the office is one way. Getting OFF the computer, meeting new folks & remembering the past clients all are critical.

Russell – as always you take the obvious and remind us that we’ve been overlooking it!
If you aren’t asking someone to buy or sell a piece of property, you aren’t working!
Well done! (And is that really your lawn?)

This is precisely why, although we are on the web, blogging, virtual tours, etc., I do not adopt “innovative things” immediately.
I’m still busy prospecting prospecting prospecting, well technically I mostly market for leads, but I do prospect those leads once I get ’em 🙂
I do it all with really old school things like DIRECT MAIL and TELEVISION (no radio, yet).

New ways are coming faster and faster; it’s difficult for me to keep up. Thanks for making it okay for me to stay a little behind.

Russell, you may not win an award from Inman but how about an Attaboy from AG readers. As I was reading your post I was thinking that so many agents are looking for the silver bullet instead of doing the tried and true actions that produce income. Once they have mastered those actions then maybe they could add to their collection of income producing activities.

You are right it getting to the table that counts and we cannot forget our basics for the development of income.

Great post. Sometimes, it is important to be shaken by the collar.
Perhaps I’ll see you on the stage at Connect. . .

Belly to belly is still the bottom line.
The young bulls keep runnin’ around tellin’ us old bulls how it’s done.
You just told ’em how you keep walkin’ down to the meadow to get ’em all. 🙂
Needed a laugh today, and as usual, you didn’t let me down. Thanks
