Personal Brand & Online Presence

0 / 7

Create a personal agent website (not just your brokerage page) with your niche and farm area front and center
Claim your Google Business Profile as a 'Real Estate Agent' with your direct contact info
Complete your Zillow Premier Agent, Realtor.com, and Homes.com profiles with 100% completion
Get client reviews on Google, Zillow, and Realtor.com after every closed transaction
Build a 'neighborhood expert' content hub: blog posts about schools, local events, market stats
Record a 60-second video introduction — pin it to your website, Google profile, and social media
Create a professional headshot and consistent brand colors/fonts across all platforms

Lead Generation

0 / 7

Run Facebook and Instagram ads targeting homeowners aged 35–65 within your farm area
Use Google Ads for buyer intent: 'homes for sale [city]', '[neighborhood] real estate agent'
Create a free 'Home Valuation' landing page — this is your highest-converting lead magnet
Run a 'Just Listed / Just Sold' postcard campaign within 0.5 miles of every transaction
Build a referral network: mortgage brokers, divorce attorneys, estate attorneys, financial planners
Host a free 'First-Time Homebuyer Workshop' quarterly — generates 10–20 qualified leads per event
Door-knock your farm area with a market report — 1 in 50 opens into a listing conversation

Listings Marketing

0 / 7

Hire a professional photographer for every listing — non-negotiable
Create a property-specific landing page with a virtual tour, floor plan, and neighborhood guide
Post every listing as an Instagram Reel walkthrough — these get 5x more reach than photos
Run Facebook ads to a 10-mile radius around every listing the day it goes live
Email your database of buyers every new listing before it hits the MLS
Create a '48-hour exclusive preview' for your buyer clients — makes them feel VIP
Send a printed 'Just Listed' flyer to 500 neighbors — neighbors refer buyers who want to live near them

Database & Referral Marketing

0 / 7

Segment your CRM into: active buyers, active sellers, past clients, sphere of influence
Send a monthly market report email to your entire database — position yourself as the local expert
Call every past client on their 'home anniversary' — most agents never do this
Send handwritten thank-you notes after every closing and every referral received
Host an annual client appreciation event (BBQ, wine tasting, movie night) — your referral engine
Set a 'touch' goal: every person in your database hears from you at least 12 times per year
Track your referral conversion rate — 80% of business should come from referrals within 3 years
