Let’s say you have 100 people in your database—that list of close friends and family you would invite to your wedding. Statistics tell us that 10 to 15 of them are moving this year. And all 100 KNOW someone who is moving. But they can’t refer you unless they remember that you are an agent and think of you when they hear the words ‘real estate.’ That means you have to market yourself as a brand and stay top-of-mind with your audience. So, what the f$%! is your brand?
Today, I’m doing a solo podcast to break down the process of developing a personal brand in order to create a strong presence in your community. I explain why referral business should be your primary goal in marketing your database, while direct business is the gravy on top.
I discuss how to develop a brand based on your authentic personality and why it’s best to focus on connecting with a specific audience rather than trying to appeal to everyone. Listen in to understand the value in creating media around your brand and learn how to set up a multi-channel marketing plan that facilitates consistent communication with your database!
