OfflineSo often real estate investors get caught up in finding the newest, best, most clever way
to contact people…..we’ll as coaches we STRESS the importance of a very simple device….the PHONE!!!
Jay Thompson recently wrote an article for Inman News were he expanded on this simple, but effective way!
As Jay attended the "2012 Realtors Conference & Expo"
he stated the following...
“As I strolled the crowded aisles, a thought came to me: "I bet every single agent on this floor already owns the most powerful piece of technology ever invented for real estate. I wonder, though, how many really use it to its fullest capability?" ….
“It's not a website. It's not a customer relationship management system. It's not an app, or a suite of apps. It is not the latest and greatest shiny new object to come forth from some developer's desktop.” …. “It's called the telephone.“
“Call someone, every day. Call 10 people a day. Call past clients, current clients, new prospects, small-business owners, peers and competitors. Got a new contact from your website or prospect generation source? Pick up the phone and call them. If someone leaves their phone number on a Web form, that's like an engraved invitation to call them.”
Once again gang…simple but IMPORTANT advice!!!

There are so many great devices and gadgets to help support and build our businesses these days that I think people tend to get overwhelmed. They worry about buying the latest and greatest when really we need to just "keep it simple". You don't need every program, ipod, PDA, tablet, notebook etc etc. All are great - don't misunderstand. Don't get overwhelmed with too many options. Start with your phone. It is the single most important device that you need (next to your computer)to build your business. Use it, answer it, make calls - get it done!
KEEP MOVING FORWARD
"If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you'll find an excuse."

Thanks. Communication is key.
It made me think that perhaps I need to call 10 people regarding my business everyday. That is now my goal! Thanks for sharing! Tammy

I agree completely. I recently got some good phone advice from Michael Mangham. I also noticed coach drew didn't fill out his profile.
Thank you Drew,
we do get overwhelmed with all the latest and greatest things in rei that are constantly offered to us, that we forget to Keep It Simple;
Thanks for the reminder!
