1.4. The EXIT Formula

The EXIT Formula is a business model, philosophy, and document. As a business model, it is second to none in the industry. The business model allows both the agents and the brokerage to use their respective strengths and help each other succeed. As a philosophy, the EXIT Formula tackles and overcomes the challenges that have plagued the real estate industry, providing financial security not only during your career, but also into retirement, and even past death to help your loved ones. The EXIT Formula’s third income stream of residuals helps bridge the gaps between closings. And finally, the EXIT Formula is a document in your Sales Representative Agreement.

It is critical that you have a solid understanding of the EXIT Formula, as it is the foundation of all that EXIT is and stands for. We strongly recommend you attend the EXIT Formula training conducted by Franchise Support (see the Agent Training Calendar) for dates and times.

Listen to Steve Morris, EXIT’s Founder and Chairman, talk about how the EXIT Formula solves the challenges in the real estate industry.

EXIT REALTY CORP. INTERNATIONAL HAS PLEDGED $5,5OO,OOO TO CHARITY

A portion of every transaction fee received by EXIT Realty Corp. International is applied to its charitable fund. Through the Spirit of EXIT Dollar-for-Dollar Matching Program, EXIT offices and members can raise money for local, approved, registered charities and apply to EXIT’s head office to have those funds matched from the company’s pledged pool of funds.

To date, EXIT Realty Corp. International has pledged more than $5,500,000 to charity. We have sponsored 20 Habitat for Humanity home builds in Canada and the U.S., and participated in a community revitalization project and the Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project. In addition, we have pledged hundreds of thousands of dollars to benefit those hardest hit by Hurricane Irma and tropical storm, Harvey. Find out more at www.exitrealty.com/spirit.

Many of our members work tirelessly to raise funds for charity in their communities. We believe that by matching the funds they raise, we can have an even greater impact than ever before. The Spirit of EXIT Dollar-for-Dollar Matching Program allows EXIT to touch more lives.”

1.5. The Name EXIT

What’s in a name? Everything. And the genius behind the name EXIT is undeniable. The word EXIT hangs above every corporate door in North America. In every retail outlet, every government building, every restaurant, and place of learning. Drive down the highway and you’ll encounter the word EXIT over and over again, guiding you to your destination.

Even the wealthiest business person could not afford to pay for marketing that is so omnipresent and constant. Just think, EXIT signs are hanging above every door in your competition’s office! As we expand into more and more markets, the word EXIT will become more and more commonplace – that is the genius of the name.

EXIT means safe passage. It literally means moving from one place to another. *

Marketing is having a presence even when you’re not present. The first time you get on an airplane and notice the EXIT sign and think of your brand, you’ll understand the power of the name.

Your real estate bio should be a window into who you are and what you do, with the focus beingonhowyoucanbeofservicetoyourclientbaseandcommunity.It’snotaboutyou;it’s about what you can do for them. The following are the 6 components which should be included in a bio. Remember, an online bio is often the first exposure a prospect has to you, and you only have one chance to make a good first impression. Let’swalkthroughthe6steps, with sample bios, followed by a work sheet to help you with content. Keepinmindthat,ideally, yourbioshouldcontain7-9paragraphs,andbesuretoincludelinkstoyourbrokerageandto exitrealty.comwhereappropriateforevenmorelift.

1. Identify Your Market

Indicate how long you have lived in the community. My name is Pat Lee and I have raised my family in the Greater Toronto Area for the past 20 years. I’ve seen this community grow into the thriving city it has become.

If you’ve moved to your market area recently, or don’t have historic knowledge, mention positive attributes of the community. I am proud to assist buyers, sellers, and investors with properties in the town of Milton and surrounding communities. This area west of the Greater Toronto Area has experienced incredible growth in the last five years, and has become one of the most desirable areas in the west GTA.

Indicate any niche market on which you intend to focus. I specialize in helping first-time buyers find their perfect home. Or With my Seniors Real Estate Specialist® designation, I help simplify what can be a complicated process for seniors.

2. Experience & Expertise

Outline any education that would benefit your real estate career, and highlight any realestate-related designations. Include any special skills. I have been licensed since 2010 and am OICP-certified, and can provide important information to investors. My degree in marketing ensures I understand how best to present your property to potential buyers. I am fluent in Mandarin.

If you’re newly licensed, focus on your brokerage rather than yourself. Think "we" and "our". Our brokerage has been helping clients in the west GTA for over 15 years. Located in the middle of the city, we are able to service clients to the north in Caledon and Markham, and to the suburban in Clarkson and Port Credit. We are proud to have received the Broker of the Year award at our convention in 2018.

List any awards received. I was honored to receive the EXIT Realty Florida Rookie of the Year award in 2015.

A release form is available for download on the Resource Center. Identify your client by first name and initial, and area.

“Thank you so much for your help in selling our home. It is finally done and we have the check in our hands. I want your company to know what a tremendous job you did!”

~ Frances L., Warwick, RI

If you don’t yet have any testimonials, use general testimonials or references which promote your skill set. You can solicit testimonials from LinkedIn contacts, a past professor, boss, mentor. Or even someone you work with in a volunteer capacity could provide a reference. “When it comes to high energy and getting things done Bob certainly has the capacity and focus that ultimately brings success.”

~ Sheryl S., Milton, ON

4. Brokerage/Brand

EXIT Realty ABC has been serving the communities of Peel, Metro, Halton, and surrounding areas for over 6 years. We promote the values of family and community throughout our agent base, and participate in many community events, such as our annual Food Drive.

Originally from the Philippines, my family and I migrated to Southern California when I was 12. I attended high school in the South Bay Area and went on to study accounting at California State University. I enjoy living in the community I serve with my three friendly dogs, and often visit the local leash-free park where I met many of my clients.

Sample Real Estate Bios

Bio 1

My husband and I have lived in the Greater Metro Area for the last 15 years. After a rewarding career as a high school teacher, I wanted to give back to the community which has served our family so well. Given the incredible growth of the GMA, and my teaching experience, real estate seemed a natural fit. I thoroughly enjoy assisting sellers, buyers, and investors in the GMA and surrounding areas of Brighton and Sperry. Licensed since 2014, I was honoured to receive the EXIT Realty Florida Top Producer award earlier this year.

“We were so lucky to have Mary as our real estate agent when we decided to buy our first home. She helped us every step of the way, and we found our dream home in no time. We couldn’t have done it without her.”

~ Sam and Lee T., Bracebridge, IL

I’m proud to be a part of the EXIT Realty 123 team; a company with a reputation in the community as a hands-on, people-oriented business. Each year, we participate in the Toys for Tots initiative. Our annual Food Drive has become legendary, drawing local celebrities and news media to cover the event. We follow the example set by EXIT Realty Corp. International, the only national brand created after the internet age, which has re-invented real estate by providing a high-tech, high-touch philosophy that always puts people first.

Bio 2

Navigating the process of selling, buying, or investing in real estate can be daunting. As a real estate professional who has represented clients in the Glen Eden community for the past 3 years, I offer my knowledge of the area to each and every client to maximize their experience. Glen Eden has grown from a small town to a thriving city which has so much to offer. Much of the new construction meets the new environmental standards and my EcoBroker® designation provides me with the expertise to assist buyers interested in green living.

“When we decided we wanted to buy an R-2000 home in order to help reduce our environmental footprint, we didn’t realize there were agents who specialized in green living. We were fortunate to find Byron who educated us each step of the way. We are now the proud owners of a beautiful home in Glen Eden.”

~ Pat and Chris B., Glen Eden, WI

“Byron was referred to me by a colleague and I’m so glad he was. When it was time to downsize, I didn’t know anything about condos. Byron’s expertise set my mind at ease, and made the process so easy. I would highly recommend him.”

~ Flora R., Chase, TX

I’m proud to be a part of the team at EXIT Realty My Brokerage. The company received the EcoBroker® designation several years ago, and conducts several events a year in the Glen Eden area to bring awareness to the environment. Last year, we entered a solar-powered float into the Earth Day parade. We follow the example set by EXIT Realty Corp. International which has a long-standing reputation as a people-first company, as evidence by their empathy-oriented corporate philosophy. EXIT truly is one big family.

When I take a rare day off, you will find me canoeing along the Credit River to take nature photographs which have been featured in displays at City Hall. I belong to the We Love The Earth club, serving as its Chairman from 2010 to 2014.

To find out how you can own your own piece of this rapidly-growing community which still manages to feel like a small town, please contact me at 444.333.6666 or emailme@somewhere.com.

1.9 Business Plan and Goal Setting

A goal properly set is halfway reached. ~ Zig Ziglar *

It has been proven time and time again that the most effective way to achieve any goal is to have a plan. A plan means your efforts can be measured and adjusted to stay on course. Without a means to measure, your plan is nothing more than a dream. Start with a dream, but make it a plan so it can become a reality. To that end, EXIT provides you with two business plans.

Agent Business Plan – Expanded

The Expanded version of the Agent Business Plan takes into account you, the whole person. At EXIT, we believe bringing the best you to your business will enhance your chances of success. The Expanded version is a holistic approach to planning, incorporating all areas of your life. This plan is customizable to reflect the aspects of life that matter to you. Hands-on exercises help you see clearly which areas of your life need attention to create balance. The business plan then takes you through the numbers, and the challenges that may present themselves along the way.

Agent Business Plan – Abridged

The Abridged version of the Agent Business Plan focuses on the numbers. Here you can review last year’s statistics and/or create this year’s production and sponsoring goals. Exercises are included to help you consider accountability and challenges.

Agent Profitability Worksheet - Goal Setting

Use this Path to Profitability Worksheet in tandem with your Business Plan to determine the activity you need to complete to reach your profitability goals. You’ll see a sample of a completed worksheet below the blank one.

Breaking Down the Numbers

To determine the annual net income you want to generate, multiple line 5 of the Path to Profitability Worksheet by 12 to get your desired annual income. Use the calculations below to give you an idea of the activities you need to complete to reach your goal. Substitute figures as they relate to your market and goals.

Annual Net Earnings Goal (line 5 of the Path to Profitability Sheet x 12) $_________________________

@ $___________________ per transaction = _______ Transactions (sides/ends)

Since taking more listings is the recipe for success in real estate, the ratio should be 60/40 (listings sold/buyer sales) = ________ listings sold / ________ buyer sales

THE EXIT COMMITMENT

We are building a company by design that honors production and success. We will stand out as a company of quality, high standards, ever increasing in market share and standings. We are a company of quality over quantity.

My commitment as an EXIT Realty agent is to offer my office production, positive contribution, and an optimistic attitude. I attend all meetings and trainings, embrace EXIT’s technology and marketing tools, and network more than any other brand. I defend our brand to all others and promote to my professional community the message “When you join our team, you will do better”.

EXIT is a company of entrepreneurs, helping each other build our businesses, become more successful, and have a greater feeling of self-worth. By doing so, together we become mutually vested in our collective goals. This company creates a win/win environment of which we are very proud, and I do my best to be part of the successful solutions necessary to excel.

It is EXIT’s company goal to be the most productively successful Real Estate Company on earth. Through our training, residual program, and affiliations, EXIT strives to be The Smartest Real Estate Company.

Keys To Success:

Your success factor in the real estate industry can be broken down easily into the four simple steps you see below. There is no particular order of importance as each one is equally important in your quest for achieving outstanding results this year.

1 GOALS 95% of your success is the reason why you are doing it. Desire ignites your subconscious mind, and your subconscious mind determines your results. The other 5% is how you do it. If your why is big enough, the how is easy.

2 PLAN Without a “plan of action”, you have no direction, no sense of accomplishment. To successfully drive from one point to another, you need directions, and you refer to these directions consistently to reach your destination. To achieve success in real estate, you need a map to provide you with that sense of direction. And you can follow this map and track your success along the way.

3 SKILL Having, or developing, experience is par for the course. Whether you’re a new agent or a veteran, improving your skills each year and looking for new ways to become more efficient in your activities contributes to your success. It’s not always about making more money. You are considered successful if you can find new ways to achieve the same results, but in a shorter, more efficient timeframe. Allow yourself to grow through learning and implementing new strategies

4 ACTION A vital part of constructing a Business Plan is being able to implement it. Simply creating a Business Plan doesn’t make you successful. Acting on it makes you successful. Do not be a full-time planner and a part-time worker. Plan your work, then work your plan.

Consider, if you will, that these four keys to success are like legs on a table. If you removed one of the four legs, would the table still stand? Of course, but how stable would it be? Moreover, if you leaned on the side with the missing leg, the table would fall, correct? Well, just as in the table example, if you completed three out of the four keys to success, you too would get results in real estate. However, your career would not be stable. If the market changed or the interest rates increased dramatically, it would be like leaning on the table. Your career could fall.

To have a strong, stable and successful career, you need to have all four keys in place.

Wheel of Life (exercise)

Directions: On the following page is a Wheel of Life. This will be a representation of your life, as of today, not what you want it to be. Each piece of pie represents one of eight areas of life. Rate each area of life on a scale of 0 – 100% (0 being the center, 100 being the outer rim), by sectioning off each piece and shading it in. For example, if your financial life was rated at 50%, then you would draw a curved line halfway up the pie and fill it in. The result would look like a half a piece of pie. If your family life was 100%, then you would simply fill in the whole piece.

Remember, this is supposed to be a representation of your life as of right now, not five years from now. Do not sugar coat your life, making it seem better than it truly is. Be honest. You have to know where you’re starting from to know where to go. Feel free to adjust the titles of each pie piece to suit your life.

Visualization (exercise)

Directions: Find a quiet location for this exercise and set aside 30-45 minutes without interruptions or distractions. Find a comfortable place to sit that will allow you to keep your back straight (sitting on the floor, on a straight back chair, etc). This allows you to sit comfortably but remain alert. Do not have anything in your hands (notepad, pen, etc). Close your eyes and focus on your life five years in the future. Remove all other thoughts or concerns, and only allow yourself to think about your life five years from today. Dream about how much you’ll be earning; about how your dream home will look; about how much you are worth financially; about your physical being and your health; about your family; and about every other area of life as outlined in your Wheel of Life. This exercise should take exactly 15 minutes, so be prepared to clock it with an alarm. Remember to remove all other thoughts.

Once the 15 minutes are up, open this Business Plan to page 7 which is titled, “Where will you be in the next five years?” and write down everything you just visualized in the space provided. Make sure you do this immediately after you visualized it, as you need to record your dreams when they are fresh in your mind. Write down as much detail as possible. The more detail you write, the more you can see it. The more you can see, the easier it is to achieve it. These are your true goals and aspirations for the next few years. Do not lose sight of them. Refer to them often. Make them real.

ACTION PLAN

Your action plan helps you put into place the 4th Key to Success, as mentioned at the beginning of this plan: Action. Take some time and create an action plan for each goal you listed on pages 9 and 10. EXIT is the Smart Real Estate Company. Make them SMART goals.

SPECIFIC

MEASURABLE

ATTAINABLE

TIME-BOUND

Some examples:

Physical Goal: Exercise every day.

Is it a SMART goal? Yes. What is my plan to achieve it?

1.Determine what type of exercise I wish to participate in

2.Acquire any equipment needed: bicycle, gym membership, tennis racquet, etc.

3.Add exercise time blocks into my daily calendar.

4.Based on my “why”, create daily affirmations to remain focused.

Business Income Goal: To earn $100,000 in gross

closed commissions

Is it a SMART goal? Yes. What is my plan to achieve it?

1. Calculate the numbers using the “Making It Easy” formula.

2. Set up and consistently maintain a contact database, such as EXIT Promo Shop.

3.Schedule 1.5 – 2 hours of prospecting into my schedule each work day.

4 Schedule training to improve my listing presentation skills. And so on.

Do this for each goal and when completed, you will have identified the tasks you need to perform to achieve all your goals. So grab your laptop, tablet, or notepad, and get started!

ORGANIZE YOUR TIME

You can’t really manage time. You can only manage yourself. Creating and maintaining a workable schedule that incorporates all your goal-oriented activities will allow for balance and harmony while making steady progress. A Daily Schedule is important to maintain balance.

DAILY SCHEDULE:

Create a simple daily work schedule to support the numbers and goals that you’ve set. Don’t make the schedule so strict you can’t keep it but use it as a guide to keep you focused on the activities you need to complete to achieve your goals. Make it work with your lifestyle and other commitments to family and self. Here are some examples of incorporating business tasks into your Daily Schedule.

Time Task

8:30am – 9:00am Organize the day and write affirmations

9:00am – 9:30am Review business plan and goals

9:30am – 11:30am Prospect

11:30am – 12:00pm Return calls

12:00pm – 1:00pm Lunch

1:00pm – 1:30pm Handle problem files

1:30pm – 2:30pm Lead follow up, set appointments, contact past clients/centers of influence

2:30pm – 5:00pm Listing appointments, showings, negotiate contracts, continue prospecting

Or Time Task

8:30am – 9:00am Kids to school

9:00am – 9:30am Organize, review business plan and goals, and write affirmations

9:30am – 11:30am Prospect

11:30am – 12:00pm Lead follow up, set appointments, work database

12:00pm – 1:00pm Lunch

1:00pm – 2:30pm Listing appointments, showings, negotiate contracts, continue prospecting

2:30pm – 3:30pm Pick up kids from school

7:00pm – 8:00pm Showings

8:00pm – 8:30pm review day, organize for tomorrow

The idea is to ensure you list the tasks necessary to accomplish your goals. A consistent work schedule will create habits that will lead you to success.

SKILL

Review your Action Plan with a critical eye to exactly what you will need to accomplish in order to achieve your goals. Are there areas where you anticipate you will need to improve your skill level? If one of your Physical goals is to complete a five mile/kilometer run, do you need to start a Walk-to-Run program? If you have scheduled two hours of prospecting each day to achieve your ultimate goal of a six-figure income, do you know where to start? Do you want to cold call or door knock or both?

CHALLENGES & SOLUTIONS:

To accomplish the business goals you’ve set, there are going to be certain challenges you’ll face throughout the course of the year. List them specifically with potential solutions throughout each area of life.

Here are some examples:

1 Challenge Remaining focused on this plan Solution Read the plan daily, daily positive affirmations, develop better health and exercise plan

2 Challenge Complacency Solution Pre-book FOUR vacations for the coming year

3 Challenge Lack of confidence Solution Reach out for training, practice scripts

4 Challenge Distractions in the office Solution Get a headset for prospecting, follow the schedule more carefully and don’t participate in office politics

5 Challenge Schedule is overwhelming Solution Remain flexible, reprioritize, and rework plan as necessary

List potential challenges you may encounter, and possible solutions:

A regular schedule – with built-in flexibility – will promote a proactive rather than a reactive work style. Time blocking is a very efficient and effective time management system. Simply break your day into time blocks and assign tasks to them. Remember, your calendar is not set in stone. Your “must do” activities such as prospecting, lead management, and servicing clients must always be priorities, but you pick the time block that works best for you and your lifestyle.

And remember, EXIT offers a specially designed training session each month the 30 Minutes to Greatness Agent Webinar, held on the second Wednesday of each month. Be sure to include regular training in your time block calendar.

How Do Websites Work?

There are several components to a published website. There is the URL that a user would type in a browser bar to go to your website, for example, superstardemosite.com. This is also known as the domain and we’ll use those terms interchangeably in this guide. Then there is the content itself comprised of the website design, text, pages, widgets, photos, videos, fillable forms, etc. All of this has to be housed somewhere on the internet. That’s called hosting. Costs come into play with all three of these components.

• The URL, or domain name, must be purchased from a domain provider such as GoDaddy. Costs vary, depending on what you want, but typically a domain costs under $10/ year.

• The site itself – design, layout – is something you purchase from a website provider such as Top Producer or Market Leader or you can design it yourself.

• The hosting costs money. Often, the domain provider or the website provider also provides hosting services.

You will need to continually renew your domain name, your contract with your website provider as well as your hosting services, typically once a year or every two years, whatever you determine.

Overview of Website Request Process

It’s important to follow the process outlined below in order to ensure the request, creation, and publication of your website goes smoothly.

1. select a domain name (URL)

2. confirm with provider that domain is available

3. ensure domain is approved by franchisee (if agent) or regional owner (if franchisee)

4. request domain approval through Resource Center

5. receive approval email from HQ*

6. purchase domain from provider

7. log into the RC and start designing your website

*EXIT Realty Corp. International reserves the right to deny any domain request. Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 75 of 430

How to Redirect Your Domain Name to EXIT

When your domain name has been approved, you will receive an email from EXIT Realty Corp International advising you it has been approved. There are just a few more steps before you have an active website. You now need to point your domain name to the URL where your site is located on EXIT’s server. Here’s how: Contact your domain provider through which you purchased your domain name (e.g. GoDaddy.com) and ask them to do the following:

• Set the DNS A Record for your domain name to point to 38.64.166.13

• Confirm that the CNAME Record is configured to handle WWW traffic

If you prefer, you can log into your account with your domain provider and set the DNS records as indicated above. Detailed instructions on how to do this yourself are shown below in the SELF HELP section.

Important: You DO NOT want to transfer, mask, or forward your domain. You DO want to point or redirect your domain name. EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 79 of 430

Once you have redirected your domain name, set your site to “ON” within the website dashboard in the Resource Center, then customize your widgets and content. !

SELF HELP – How to Point/Redirect a URL

1.You will receive an email from EXIT Realty Corp. International indicating that your requested domain name has been approved. Now it’s time to redirect or point that domain to your EXIT website.

2. Make sure your domain is marked “ON” in the website dashboard.

3.Your domain provider is the company where you purchased your domain name, such as GoDaddy.com. To redirect/point your domain name to your EXIT website, sign into your domain provider (sometimes called a registrar) control panel and browse to domain settings.

4.You want to redirect or point your domain name to your EXIT site. You DO NOT want to transfer, mask, or forward your domain name. You DO NOT need extra services like hosting or an email service.

5.It is important to note that what you require is to have the DNS A Record set to 38.64.166.13. You can also confirm that the CNAME Record is configured to handle WWW traffic.

6.The following example is using GoDaddy.com as the domain provider and yourdomain.com as a sample domain name.

7.After signing into the domain provider, browse to My Products to find the list of domains you own. Find yourdomain.com and hit the ‘DNS’ button next to it to enter advanced settings.

8.In the section called Records please remove any A and CNAME records if they exist, then click “Add”

9.Select “A” value from the dropdown list named “Type:, enter value “@” into the field named “Host”, enter this value: 38.64.166.13. Into the field named “Points to” finally change the value in “TTL” dropdown list to lowest possible.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 81 of 430

11. After checking all the edits hit “Save” button.

12.It may take 24 – 48 hours to fully propagate. During that time, you may see that your domain displays correctly intermittently. If, after 48 hours, your domain is not displaying consistently, please contact your domain provider’s support desk.

Building a Business Page on Facebook

There are many reasons why creating a Facebook Page is beneficial for the success of your business. Facebook Pages allow businesses to develop their brand, grow their audience and start conversations with customers and people interested in learning more. To create a Facebook Page, you'll need to already have a personal profile. This is because only people with profiles on Facebook can create or have a role on Pages. If you're still not sure a Facebook Page is right for you, check out this top list of reasons why businesses should adopt Facebook Pages.

It's free

It's free to create a Page for your business. All you need to do is follow the steps for creating a Page and decide how you'd like to use your Page to interact with people and customers on Facebook. Once your Page is created, you can get access to many free features like Messenger, Page Insights, publishing tools and other tools that help you manage your Page.

Your competitors are already using Pages

With 65 million businesses using Pages on Facebook, it's likely your competitors are already using Facebook as a marketing tool to grow their businesses and brands.

Humanize your company

Creating an online presence for your business helps you build social connections with your audience and drive real business results. With a Facebook Page, you can curate the tone, style and personality of your business. You can also showcase your brand through photos and video through posts or Page Stories, or share personal epithets and engage in one-toone conversations through comments and messaging. Putting a face to your business through a Facebook Page reminds your audience that it's run by real people.

Learn about your target audience

As a business, you probably care deeply about your core audience–the customers who care most about what you have to offer. With a Facebook Page, you can learn even more about your audience and find more people like them.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 89 of 430

When you create a Page, you can chat with customers directly through comments on your posts and Messenger. You can also see what customers are saying to each other. Gathering this feedback may help inform your business decisions and the content you share on your Facebook Page. Better yet, you can use your Page's Insights to understand the actions people take on your Page, like how often they like, comment on and share posts. You'll also have access to aggregate data about your audience's demographics, like age, gender and location.

Build your community

With a Facebook Page, you have the opportunity to engage your community. You can post about the newest products or services your business is offering, organize contests or run Facebook ads. You may also want to offer incentives or discounts or simply ask your audience to provide reviews or feedback through the comment section of a post.

Try posting testimonials from your biggest fans or customers for others to see so they know that real people are out there who also love what your business offers. By sharing endorsements from your audience, you may build authenticity and trust for your brand.

Strengthen customer relationships

Growing customer loyalty is key for many businesses. A Facebook Page may help you build and maintain the loyalty you promise to your customers and the loyalty you desire from them in return. With a Facebook Page, you're able to stimulate your community of followers through ads you create, the testimonials you share out and the conversations you facilitate. Further strengthen your relationships with your audience by earning a Very Responsive Badge. Pages also make it easy for customers to book directly with you for all appointments, so you'll be able to communicate and manage business directly with the Appointments on Facebook tool.

Expose your brand

Exposing your brand on Facebook helps you increase awareness of your business. Whenever someone likes, comments or shares something from your Page, their friends may see that they engaged with it and may in turn go on to interact with your content or seek out more information about your business. As your brand awareness grows, learn about how much time you'll spend managing your Page..

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 90 of 430

Drive traffic

A Facebook Page can help you drive traffic to other sites you care about, like your website. You can add your website to your Page's About section and create posts on your Facebook Page with links to relevant pages on your website, like blogs, newsletters and more. Your Page may also be indexed by Google, meaning it can appear in Google's search results when people are looking for your business. To help make sure your Facebook Page is easily findable, link your Facebook account from your website and any other online resources you offer.

Act on insights

Once you have around 100 fans on your Facebook Page, you should start monitoring your Page Insights. Page Insights offer a wealth of information about how people interact with your Page and engage with your posts. You'll also get access to demographic info. You can use these Insights to make strategic choices for your business. For example, you can use the information you find to identify the types of posts your audience is most likely to interact with and tailor your message accordingly.

Leverage competitor insights

Since Facebook Pages are public, you can view what other businesses are doing on Facebook and the techniques they're using to reach their audiences. In the Insights tab on your Page, you can even add specific Pages you want to watch and see the number of times they're posting each week, the number of likes their Page has and more.

Unlock the power of Facebook advertising

Having a Facebook Page is a prerequisite to being able to advertise on Facebook. Facebook Pages are free and provide you with a place to create and manage ads. Facebook ads are a great way to grow your brand and audience on and off of Facebook and within your budget. Facebook ads can appear on Facebook (ex, mobile and desktop News Feeds), Instagram and Audience Network. Where you place your ads, the creative, targeting, budget and schedule of the ads you run is up to you.

You'll have access to other Facebook advertising tools to help you understand what you're getting in return from each ad you run. Additionally, Facebook advertising makes it easy to

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 91 of 430

optimize your advertising efforts to ensure you're creating quality ads that help you reach even more people as your business grows..

What to do if you created an event, group or profile instead of a

Facebook Page

Facebook offers many tools to connect with the different communities you care about. We recommend checking out the differences between profiles, Pages, groups and events so you can be sure you're choosing the right option for you. If you accidentally created an event, group or profile for your business, there are some steps you can take to transition to a Page.

If you've decided to transition to a Facebook Page and are using another asset, here are some recommendations:

1. Write a status on the profile, group or event you created that says you have a new Facebook Page for your business and ask people to go like the Page to continue receiving updates and information from you.

2. Share your Page to your personal timeline and ask close friends if they'll like and share it. Doing this may help you grow the audience for your new Facebook Page faster.

3. Once you've built momentum, gaining likes and followers on your new Page, deactivate your initial profile, group or event, so your followers go to one place for your business.

Post ideas for Pages

Interested in learning more about the amount of time you should spend managing your Page? Review the factors you should consider and additional tips.

There are free ways to keep your Page active even if you don't have a particular promotion or post in mind. The more often you post, the easier it'll become to quickly create posts for your Page. You'll get the most out of Page when your audience sees that you're active and engaging. This means anyone who visits your Page should see a post that is both:

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 92 of 430

1. Recent: New and frequent posts tell your audience that you're active, legitimate, and care about them as customers. Old or expired posts could imply your business isn't active or investing the time to drive business value.

2. Personal and meaningful: The more relatable your content is, the more you'll be able to connect to your audience. When potential customers see that you're posting content that matters to them, they could be more likely to become fans of your Page or trust your business.

Page posts can include content that's entertaining for your audience, makes them think, or provides value to their lives in some way. No matter what you share, engaging posts perform best. If you're just getting started with a Facebook Page for your business and aren't sure what to post about, the following ideas may help you get started: Reflect your current Call-to-Action button

If you have a Call-to-Action button set on your Page, write a new post that highlights it. For example, if your current CTA is Book Now, you would write a new post letting your audience know that there are still openings available for them to booked and that they can book directly by clicking your CTA. Learn how to add a Call-to-Action button to your Page

Run a contest or giveaway

A possible way to encourage more likes, comments and shares is to announce a contest or giveaway that incentivizes people's participation. At the end of the week, pick a winner from the group of people who shared your post and congratulate them in an entirely new post. Consider announcing a future contest or giveaway that your audience should stay tuned for.

Share fan testimonials

It can be exciting and uplifting when people say kind words about what you do. Share some in moderation so the rest of your audience can celebrate with you.

Crowdsource feedback

One way to generate feedback on your products, services or business in general is to leverage feedback from your Page fans. The added benefit is you might choose to use this feedback to improve your business, generating more transparency and openness with your audience as you create brand trust.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 93 of 430

Ask your audience to make a choice

A fun method to engage with your audience when you don't necessarily have something business-specific to share is to ask your audience to make a choice, pick a favorite, or decide between two things. When you set up your fans with a friendly This or That question, you can spark an interest that invites them to respond.

Pose a question

A simple way to start a dialog with your audience is to ask them a pointed question, like how they're feeling that day or what weekend plans they're excited for. When your audience relates to the questions you ask and you leverage their interests and needs, they may feel more inclined to respond and generate threads on your posts.

Share industry news

Sharing news from your industry will communicate to your audience that you don't just care about promoting your business, but that you also care about keeping your Page fans informed about current topics that are relevant to them.

Celebrate a holiday

Holidays, either nationally recognized or trending on social media, are opportunities for your Page to contribute to the celebration with a Page post of your own. Best Friends Day or Pet Day, for example, are all light-hearted openings to celebrate common interests among your audience. These celebrations may vary depending on where you're located.

Note: If you're unsure if your post is appropriate for Facebook, check out Facebook's Terms of Service.

Boost your best posts

If you posted something to your Page that received a lot of comments, likes and shares, it's likely because it was personal or meaningful to your audience. Try boosting that post to reach a wider audience and connect with potential customers that haven't been to your Page yet. To see how your boosted post is performing, go to the Ad Center tab on your Page to view results.

CONTENT Ideas

Page 103 of 430

Never run out of social media content ideas again! The following list covers just about everything you could possibly post on social media. From personal, to business-related, to promotional posts, this list of 100 ideas will keep you inspired for a long time.

1. Quotes: Humorous, inspiring or motivational quotes always perform well.

2. Fill-in-the-blank posts (e.g. “If I had $1 million I would _________”)

3. Polls: While Facebook offers built-in polls, I find running them manually works best for boosting engagement (e.g. “Which of these books is your favorite?”)

4. Behind-the-scenes photos: Take candid shots of yourself, your employees, or snap a shot of your office or workspace.

5. Statistics or data: Share new, relevant industry statistics (these perform great in terms of retweets and shares)

6. Post a link to an old blog post: There’s nothing wrong with recycling, and old posts will gain new engagement, extending their life.

7. Questions: Pose simple, basic questions that your followers can answer quickly.

8. Link to a guest post: Share (or re-share) a link to a post you contributed to another site.

9. Post a branded image: Post a funny or inspirational image with your logo or website URL on it.

10. Infographics: Find an infographic your followers would appreciate.

11. Product photos: Work best on sites like Pinterest or Instagram. Think about how you can add a unique angle to the shots (e.g. an employee actually using the product, a customersubmitted photo, etc.).

12. Photos that have nothing to do with your products or business: Instead, they convey the feeling behind your brand. For instance, how Starbucks shares photos on Instagram to associate their brand with sunshine, warmth, and good friends (not just coffee).

13. Behind-the-scenes product shots: Photos of your products being manufactured or sourced.

14. Link to a controversial blog post: There’s nothing better for eliciting engagement than a little controversy.

15. Ask for input on your products: Your followers will love giving their thoughts on how to improve your products.

100 IDEAS OF THINGS TO POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA Page 104 of 430

16. Let Pinterest inspire you: Pinterest is a goldmine in terms of finding beautiful images you can share (particularly images with quotes). Just be sure to give proper credit.

17. Share a helpful resource: If you’re truly concerned about sharing the most useful info with your followers, don’t be afraid to direct them to other people’s valuable content (not just your own).

18. Post a Slideshare presentation: If you want to find one that’s already proven itself to be popular, go to the ‘Trending in Social Media’ section at the bottom of the Slideshare homepage.

19. Link to a case study: Case studies are great for delivering useful info in a way that’s often more palatable and actionable than a standard blog post.

20. Link to an industry-related IFTTT recipe: Haven’t heard of IFTTT (short for If This Then That)? You need to check it out. Then share a link to a recipe your followers would find useful.

21. Ask for reviews or testimonials: Eliciting reviews from fans or followers is one of the best ways to get testimonials you can use as social proof on your website.

22. Fan photos: Search for hashtags related to your business or products, and share a customer photo on Facebook, Instagram or Pinterest.

23. Recommend a tool: Share a (preferably free) tool or resource you think your followers would find useful.

25. A day in the life post: Give a recap of a typical day in the life of a graphic designer, author, CEO, etc.

26. Recommend your favorite products: If you’re an e-commerce site, share a list of your top sellers or highest-rated products. If you’re a service provider, share a list of the products that help you succeed in your business.

27. Share random tips: Periodically post a random tip or trick your followers would find useful. Hint: using random tip numbers adds interest to your post (e.g. Tip #256: __________)

28. Link to your most popular blog post: Give a brief intro to the post and explain why it’s your most read and shared post.

29. Provide a recommendation: Share the love by recommending a business you’ve worked with successfully in the past.

Introduction

Today, people hold the power

Like many industries, real estate has been disrupted by digital technology. Just as the scale and convenience of mobile phones disrupted how people shop and travel, mobile has changed how people browse for homes and rentals.

Buyers used to let agents control their open house visits. Now, they use the internet to search and discover hundreds of listings on their own—then contact the agent if they’re interested. Similarly, most renters start the search for their apartments online.

The search never stops because it doesn’t have to since people now look for homes anytime, anywhere. Your clients still need your services, but they often do much of the initial browsing themselves—on mobile.

Apply best practices to effectively market on Facebook

Applying best practices can help you make the most of your marketing on Facebook— whether it’s choosing the right ad objectives or measuring how effective your ads are. A Facebook Technology Partner or a brokerage solution can help.

Select the right objectives for your ads

When creating a Facebook ad, you should select the ad objectives that align to your marketing goals. It’s important to know what you want to achieve in order to choose the right objective. Your advertising objective is what you want people to do when they see your ads.

Clearing up some myths

For example, if you want to direct people to your website to learn more, you can create ads using the traffic objective that encourages people to visit your website.

If you’re looking to encourage people to watch a walkthrough of the property or generate quality leads, consider using video view, lead ads and web conversions objectives.

Some common myths we hear from real estate professionals include:

MYTH “There’s no way to tell if my Facebook ads are even working.”

REALITY

A key path to marketing success and business growth is to measure what matters. That goes beyond traditional post-campaign measurement to testing what works, focusing on the outcomes that matter to your business and using the insights you’ve learned to inform strategies. We provide solutions and guidance both natively through our Facebook measurement tools and through our network of trusted partners, such as the solutions we mentioned in the previous section.

MYTH “Status updates and organic posts are as effective as paid ads.”

REALITY

Status updates and organic posts on Facebook may not have the same reach as ads. Typically, they’re seen by less than 3% of a Page’s followers.

MYTH “Boosting a post is the same thing as an ad.”

REALITY While boosting a post is still considered an ad, Facebook ads are created through Ads Manager and offer more advanced customization solutions. There are many advertising objectives to help you reach your specific business goals and the audiences you care about most. Facebook ads can give you more reach and advanced targeting potential.

Now, let’s take a look at some tips to connect with customers using Facebook’s different marketing tools, such as Pages, Stories and Marketplace.

Drive consideration through lead ads

Lead ads allow people on mobile to complete forms with just a couple of taps, making it easy to send you their information. Lead ads can help you learn where people are looking for homes, gather information about your customers’ budgets, understand where customers are in the homebuying process and schedule home showings.

Lead ads can be a powerful driver of your business goals by helping you acquire new customers and deepen relationships. You can work with a partner to create lead ads, which enable you to:

Build trust and consideration by telling people about your brand and enabling them to start the conversation about your listings.

Acquire high-quality customers who are more likely to be interested in buying or renting a home.

Deepen relationships

by maintaining ongoing contact with current prospects or customers through relevant experiences that engender long-term loyalty.

Acquire more leads

by simplifying lead generation on mobile with pre-populated and easy-to-edit forms—reducing the friction for completing forms.

Use real estate ads to close deals

Brokers and teams can use real estate ads (previously known as dynamic ads for real estate) to get your listings in front of people who have expressed interest in buying or renting a new property. They enable you to show the right properties to interested buyers based on criteria like neighborhood, price, square footage and more. Real estate ads are only available for brokers and teams. The solution is:

Scalable

Promote home listings with unique creative without having to configure each individual ad.

Always-on

Set up campaigns once to continually reach people with the right listings at the right time.

Cross-device

Reach people with ads on any device they use, regardless of their original touchpoint.

Dynamically relevant

Show geographically relevant ads based on your customers’ intent signals with real-time pricing and availability.

Dynamic ads use machine learning to automatically deliver predictive, relevant ad content to people based on their behaviors, interests and intent. Real estate ads are dynamic ads, which leverage cross-device intent signals to dynamically promote relevant listings from your real estate inventory with unique creative on Facebook, Instagram and Audience Network.

Using the Facebook pixel and SDK, real estate ads will build in-market audiences of people who have browsed specific properties on your website or mobile app.

Facebook then dynamically matches listings from your catalog to this audience based on price, size, neighborhood and other attributes.

For example, a person who has been browsing 3-bedroom houses in Austin, Texas will automatically have relevant listings within their budget retargeted to them, which can drive them to your website to learn about relevant homes or submit a request for more information.

Bring your listings to life with mobile video

Mobile has changed the way that renters and buyers browse for homes and connect with agents. Central to this shift is mobile video. You can create mobile-first video ads and experiences to attract more attention for your listings and bring your digital home tours to life.

Why use video?

• There are an estimated 235.1 million video viewers in the US—nearly 83% of Internet users 16

• Digital video ad spend in the US will reach $58.39 billion in 2023, growing at double-digit percentages year-over-year during the forecast period 17

Boost digital curb appeal

Mobile video is growing among real estate consumers.

• 86% of prospective homebuyers say they’d use mobile video to learn more about a specific community they’re considering 18

Mobile video grows awareness and interest in real estate listings because it delivers visual information in vivid and experiential ways.

• There’s a 17% higher conversion rate for static-plus-video campaigns, when compared to static image-only campaigns 19

Video best practices

But not all video ads are created equal. In order to capture attention, it’s critical for advertisers to adopt a mobile-first strategy and create video ads that fit seamlessly into the mobile content consumption experience.

Mobile-first video is video that is 15 seconds or less OR vertical aspect ratio (4:5 – 9:16).

“Video-rich advertising isn’t just a distant possibility on the horizon—the tools and formats agents need to bring interactive, engaging home listings vividly to life are readily available and easy to use today.”

— Keith Watts, Head of Industry, Real Estate

Create immersive real estate experiences with Stories

Stories is a mobile-first format that can help you engage homebuyers and renters with immersive experiences. Stories are fast, fun, flexible and have many interactive features. Working with a Facebook Technology Partner or brokerage solution, you can use Stories to make your listings shine.

Why use Stories?

Each day,

1BStories are shared across the world and across Facebook apps 21

62%

of people who use Stories across Facebook apps said they have become more interested in a brand or product after seeing an ad in Stories 20

Stories are created specifically for mobile and vertical orientation—the way people actually hold their phones. And studies show that people care about Stories because the format helps them experience new things, feel closer to friends and feel part of a larger community.

20. Facebook IQ (2018) “Why Stories is a Format that Can Help Marketers Promote Brands.”; 21. Facebook internal data (2019)

Succeeding with Stories in real estate

A Nielsen Catalina study showed that 56% of a brand’s sales lift can be attributed to the quality of their creative. 22

We’ve found that people are most interested in seeing Stories from brands that are quick and easy to understand ( 52% ), feature sales/promos ( 50% ), introduce new products ( 47% ), feel real ( 46% ) and offer tips/advice ( 46% ). 23

Creative considerations

Turn any existing creative asset into a native ad in Stories or create new content tailormade for Stories. You can customize your ad creative for placements or find help through a Facebook Technology Partner or brokerage solution.

When creating Stories:

• Consider keeping attention with speed, creating for Stories first, using multiple scenes and enhancing static with motion

• Experiment with capturing everyday moments and mixing/matching video and static

• Enhance your existing creative with Stories features like filters, geotags, hashtags, music and GIFs

Use live video to host an open house or apartment showing

You can make the most of Facebook Live and Instagram Live, which are video-first solutions that can help you connect with real estate buyers or renters. These can be especially important when in-person open houses are not an option.

By going Live, agents and property managers can take clients on a tour of a listing during a real-time, interactive broadcast—a virtual open house. You don’t need a fancy camera or crew, just a smartphone. A partner can help you make the most of your Live open house. Here are some tips to consider:

1 2 3

BEFORE OPEN HOUSE LIVE OPEN HOUSE AFTER OPEN HOUSE

• Send an email blast to your network letting them know when to tune in to your Facebook Page for the Live— include a link to your Facebook Page. Post those same details on your website and your listings.

• For Facebook Live, use Facebook Events to get your open house on calendars, send updates and reminders. For Instagram, try using the countdown sticker in Stories or posting on your Instagram Feed.

• Directly reach out to potential buyers from your open house and invite them.

• Plan your virtual tour like you would an in-person tour. Consider where you will go first and what you will highlight in each room.

• Begin by introducing yourself, sharing your credentials and saying what’s great about the home.

• People may come in and out, so periodically remind people who you are and what property you’re touring.

• Interact with your audience by building in time in each room to pause and answer questions from the comments.

• For Instagram specifically, try a Live Q&A. Either ask questions during the stream or use the Questions sticker in Stories to source questions beforehand.

• After the Live stream is over, the video becomes on-demand content, which can then be shared, downloaded, edited and re-purposed. It is very likely that even more people will see your Live tour after you’re finished.

• Use links to the “Live After” video on your listings and send to clients who missed the tour.

• Save your Live video to edit. You can use shorter clips to post on your page. Think of these as house highlights.

• Use comments from the audience to gauge what type of information they are looking for about the property. Tailor your future messaging based on the comments.

• Follow up with your prospects on Messenger. They may eventually be interested in putting in an offer.

• For Instagram Live specifically, save your Live video and upload it to Stories.

Real Estate Professionals Guide to Success © Facebook company Page 124 of 430

Tips and ideas for Live

• Test your connection throughout the house so you know if there will be any connectivity issues.

• Turn off notifications before you broadcast.

• When you’re in rooms, consider placing the phone on a tripod for stability while you speak.

• As you are walking or panning through a room, go slower than you think necessary, as fast jerky actions can be disorienting. Consider using a stabilizer.

• Have the listing information handy in case you get a question.

• Watch some other home tour videos. Note what you like and what you think doesn’t work.

Consider sharing a video on IGTV

Another way to go deeper with your audience is by sharing longer videos around topics related to your real estate business. IGTV is full screen (vertical or horizontal) and videos can be up to 1 hour long. A partner can set you up with your own channel on IGTV that gives you more opportunity to be discovered by customers. You can engage people by publishing original content, and using sound, editing and graphics techniques to make your IGTV stand out.

Getting started

To go Live with Instagram, swipe right from Feed to open the Stories camera, then tap “Live”, then “Start Live Video.”

Here’s instructions for going live with Facebook .

Exploring real stories of success with partners

Using Facebook ads and marketing tools, digital platforms like CINC and Ylopo partner with local real estate agents to help them achieve their business goals—whether it’s getting more leads or helping close deals. Let’s take a closer look at what they did.

CINC helped a local agent get 385 new leads using Facebook

CINC (Commissions Inc.) helps real estate agents capture and manage leads to drive new business growth. CINC wanted to help one of its clients manage leads and shorten the average buying time by keeping potential buyers continually engaged with the client’s real estate website as the leads moved from consideration to purchase.

CINC’s ListCast product used Facebook real estate ads (previously known as dynamic ads for real estate) to help its agent clients reach new leads. Real estate ads not only help ensure that potential leads receive listings that they will be interested in—they also inspire existing leads to continually revisit agent websites.

For this campaign, CINC first delivered lead ads on Facebook to people who’d already visited the website of one of its clients, but hadn’t registered. These ads continued to reach people over a 30-day period, with the goal of driving them back to the client site to complete the registration form.

Facebook real estate ads helped CINC’s client drive more website visits for less money. Between April–September 2019, the campaign achieved:

Ylopo is a digital marketing technology platform serving real estate agents. Ylopo wanted to generate high-quality prospective homebuyers for its client, a high-performing real estate agent and team leader in New Jersey. When Facebook provided an updated solution to pair dynamic ads for real estate with lead ads, Ylopo jumped on board.

Real estate ads show people home listings based on homes they might be interested in, while the lead ad can deliver higher-quality contact information by pre-filling details from the information people have already shared with Facebook, such as name, email address and phone number. By combining these two products, businesses can help capture better leads at a lower price.

Ylopo’s March 1–31, 2018 campaign combined the power of real estate ads with lead ads and brought the realtor better leads at a lower price.

Homesnap offers lead generation and marketing services to real estate professionals. Real estate professionals share property listings on MLS databases for specific markets so other agents can find them. Homesnap wanted to help its clients get more exposure for the single-family home rental listings in the MLSs since these rentals are not typically posted or prominently featured on traditional rental-property portals.

To help agents and brokers reach more renters, Homesnap turned to Facebook Marketplace, a commerce destination visited by millions of people every day. As a real estate listing partner on Marketplace, Homesnap began posting its MLS partners’ rental inventory on the platform, helping agents and brokers tap into a targeted and relevant audience.

Homesnap plans to list rental inventory in additional markets on Marketplace, as the commerce platform has proved its extensive reach and value by delivering:

BoomTown ROI is a leading sales and marketing platform that helps real estate professionals manage their online marketing. To boost inbound calls and close more sales, it hired Invoca, a call intelligence company that provides insights into incoming phone calls and conversations.

BoomTown ROI knew it can start a conversion more effectively by immediately taking a call from an interested agent, rather than responding later to a lead form submission. That’s why it wanted to increase the number of calls to its sales team to accelerate its sales process.

The company moved its advertising focus to inbound call leads by using video ads to promote its app, BoomTown NOW. It partnered with Invoca, whose integration with the Facebook Offline Conversions API lets businesses see how their Facebook ads are driving call center calls and sales. To reach real estate agents, the team built a Custom Audience of people who had subscribed to the BoomTown ROI blog and submitted forms through its Facebook campaigns from the last quarter of 2016.

The 6-month campaign between January–June 2017 brought in more calls and helped BoomTown ROI’s sales reps close more sales faster, resulting in: increase in total call volume

MARKETING ACTION PLAN

Page 132 of 430

INTRODUCTION

Welcome!

Before you get started, we thought we’d give a brief overview of what’s to come.

With the explosive popularity of social media outlets, marketing has never been more vital to your success nor has it ever been as overwhelming. Consumers are flooded with ads on a daily basis, and separating yourself from your competitors has become more difficult.

So how do you make yourself stand out from the herd? This guide will help you define your brand and pinpoint your key messages and value proposition to help lead your marketing efforts. It will also help you budget your efforts and determine which marketing sources work and which should be tossed.

Marketing your brand can be huge undertaking, but it does not have to be crushing. Take your time working through this plan, and you’re sure to have a successful year!

Page 133 of 430
Now let’s get started!

PART ONE: GOALS

The first step in any successful marketing plan is to set goals. How will you be able to shape your plan if you don’t know what you’re working towards? Goals help you measure your marketing efforts and make sure you stay on the right track.

Step 1: Short-Term Goals and Actions

Action begets action, so let’s begin by setting some short-term goals. Consider a marketing medium you want to master. What would you like to improve on? What’s a new idea you’d like to implement for the first time? Ask yourself, what activities can I do today, this week, and this month to immediately move towards my long-term goals? When thinking about your goals, keep them measurable and easy to track. Write down at least 3 short-term goals below:

Short-term Goals: 1.

2.

3.

EXAMPLES

•Post on Facebook daily and increase engagement by 3%.

•Gain at least 30 new followers per week.

•Implement a daily time blocking strategy where I will contact 10 people from my Sphere of Influence (SOI) each week.

•Find an accountability partner to meeting with weekly to review marketing tasks completed.

•Register for marketing-related education on topics such as Facebook, email campaigns, print marketing systems, and more.

•Subscribe to a technology or system related to marketing.

(These examples are great for short-term goals because they are quickly attainable and measurable).

Page 134 of 430

Step 2: Long-Term Goals and Actions

Long-term goals will generally have a financial or transactional value associated with them. While they are “long-term,” they must be reviewed consistently to determine if you are moving in the right direction. Remember to associate with each goal with a marketing objective. These should also be very specific to increase your marketing plans’ effectiveness and tangibility.

Long-term Goals:

EXAMPLES

•Build a strong marketing presence to help increase listing leads from farm areas by 25% by this time next year.

•Transition into selling luxury properties through new networking and marketing channels.

•Within 12 months, consistently generate 15 new buyer leads per month.

•Increase SOI network by 20 to 40 new high-quality contacts by attending an additional 2-4 networking and social events.

PART TWO:

Challenge: Imagine you are standing at a podium, pitching to a room of qualified
and sellers. In 30 seconds or less, you have to define your brand. What makes you unique? What would compel them to choose you over other talented and experienced agents? Can you communicate your brand with passion and clarity? Use the exercise below to develop your brand message.

Draw from the words on the previous page and use the questions below as inspiration to craft your brand message.

What my clients appreciate about me the most:

My promise to my clients: What makes me different from other agents: The most important thing I do for my clients:

Step 2: My Brand Message

There are no rules for writing your brand message and it doesn’t necessarily have to appear on your marketing materials. However, this message is a guidepost for your business and should be a central part of your “Business DNA.” Every time you meet a new prospective customer, this message should be engrained in their experience.

EXAMPLE

I provide my clients with a highly-personalized, hassle-free home buying or selling experience. This exceptional client service is made possible by an exclusive process I’ve developed over my 15 years of experience as a real estate professional. This process and my sincere devotion to client advocacy ensures my clients have the best possible transaction.

My brand message:

PART THREE:

REVIEWING PAST EFFORTS

Get ready to put in some important work during this critical step. Reviewing past successes and failures is crucial as you develop your Marketing Action Plan. If your CRM has this information, great! If not, you’ll want to go back and look at each transaction and note the sources.

Step 1: What Worked?

Are new clients coming to you from the same sources? Do you notice a pattern? (If you’re new to the business, meet with your mentor as you walk through this section.)

NOTE: Check out the tracking spreadsheet we’ve create to help you organize your past business sources. It can be found on the webpage where you downloaded this plan.

Use this tracking spreadsheet to identify the marketing sources that worked best for you in the last sales year.

Step 2: What Didn’t Work?

Knowing which marketing techniques to avoid is just as important as knowing which ones work best. Make a list of the marketing activities that you received little or no return on in the past year. You can also use the spreadsheet in the previous step for this assignment.

Marketing activities that did not work:

Page 138 of 430

PART FOUR: PLANNING YOUR BUDGET

Step 1: Start-up Cash

It’s an old but true cliche: You have to spend money to make money. What financial resources will you allocate to marketing and lead generation this year? This step is simple, but your budget isn’t a reality until you put it in writing. Planning your budget ahead of time will keep you from overspending and will allow you to make the most of your money.

How much start-up cash do you have available for marketing?

$

Step 2: Create a Detailed Budget

You can create a detailed budget by downloading the budget spreadsheet that accompanies this workbook or you can use the spreadsheet on the following page to manually fill in your budget.

After completing your budgeting plan, compare your startup cash amount in the previous step with the overall total in your spreadsheet. Ideally, the totals should be similar. If not, take a look at your budget and make sure you are not allocating resources to channels that did not work in the past.

What is G Suite?

Unlike other free consumer software, though, free G Suite users don’t see ads while using the services. Bonus: Google doesn’t use the information stored in G Suite applications and accounts for advertisement purposes.

The G Suite Products

Google offers a wide variety of products for both personal and enterprise use. Most are accessible with a Google account (by tapping the menu in the top right corner), though some need to be installed as Google Chrome extensions to gain full functionality.

Gmail

Gmail is the G Suite email software. It was released in 2004 and now has over 1 billion users worldwide.

With a G Suite plan, businesses enjoy 30GB of storage space, custom company email addresses (yourname@exitbiloxi.com), unlimited Google Group email addresses, 24/7 phone and email support, and compatible add-ons available through the G Suite Marketplace.

Page 168 of 430

Google Drive is the G Suite cloud storage platform and was launched in 2012. Drive manages all of your company’s content and supports collaboration across your entire organization. It also allows you to view various file formats so you don’t have to download additional software to your devices.

Depending on the G Suite plan, businesses enjoy 30GB, 1TB, or unlimited storage per user and audit and reporting insights for Drive content.

Docs, Sheets, and Slides

Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Slides are the G Suite word processor, spreadsheet, and presentation programs, respectively. They were added to the platform in 2006.

These programs allow real-time collaboration, save changes automatically, and track revision history. Users can insert comments, suggest edits, communicate through a built-in chat, and create templates for future use.

With a G Suite plan, businesses enjoy unlimited revision history among other perks.

Forms

Google Forms is the G Suite web form and survey tool. Also launched in 2006, Forms shares many of the same features as Docs, Sheets, and Slides, such as automatic saving, real-time collaboration, and template creation. To collect data through Forms, users can personalize surveys or quizzes, send respondents the URL, and review the data (that’s automatically collected in Sheets).

Calendar

Google Calendar is the G Suite online calendar. It was launched in 2006 and integrates with Gmail to manage schedules, appointments, meetings, and tasks (via Google Tasks).

Supra ® Bluetooth ® iBox Keyboxes

User Guide

Introduction

Supra ® iBox BT LE and iBox BT are electronic keyboxes that are placed on listings and hold the listing's keys.

The iBox BT LE and iBox BT keyboxes can be accessed using Supra eKEY ® , XpressKEY ™ , Active KEY®, or DisplayKEY electronic keys. For information on operation refer to the user instructions provided with the key or go to the Customer Support page on www .supraekey.com .

The iBox BT LE and iBox BT keyboxes use Bluetooth® or infrared technology to communicate with Supra keys. When interacting with the keyboxes, the distance between the key and keybox should be less than three (3) feet when using Bluetooth, or less than one (1 )foot when using infra.red. Direct sunlight can interfere with infrared communication, so you may need to shade the area between the keybox and key.

Key Container

Figure 1. Supra iBox BT LE closing. Do not place any keys, cards, or other items on the back of the

key container. If you are a listing agent, always make sure you have a spare set of keys before closing the key container. To close the key container, turn it so the compartment holding the keys is facing you. Insert the key container into the bottom of the keybox and push up on the key container until it clicks and latches.

Supra keyboxes have a large key container that can hold several listing keys or gate cards. To prevent possible sticking of the key container, verify all items are positioned well inside the key container before �upra lllttef T•tftHIOIIIS

Shackle

The shackle removes easily in one step. After performing the release on the top of the shackle, then pull up on the shackle to completely remove it. To replace the shackle, line up the shackle with the keybox and push down until it clicks into place.

Battery You do not need to replace the battery in the iBox BT LE or iBox BT because it uses a long-life lithium bat tery. No maintenance is required and the battery is designed to last the life of the product — a minimum of six (6) years. When removing the keybox shackle, your key will di splay the current keybox battery level. The battery leve l is also sent to the Supra data center and can be viewed on SupraWEB.

Care

Keybox

Always hang the keybox in a vertical position and place it where moisture from rain or snow cannot run into the key container. Avoid hanging the keybox where sprinklers or faucets will spray the key container. The iBox BT LE and iBox BT keyboxes are designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -40°F to 185°F. In extremely hot climates, place the keybox in the shade to prevent it from becoming too hot, which may reduce battery life. In extremely cold weather conditions, place the keybox where it can be protected from precipitation.

As a listing agent, there are several ways to see who has shown your listings. To view this showing information, the iBox BT LE, iBox BT, or iBox placed on your listings must be in your keybox inventory. Manage the keybox inventory on the eKEY app or at the Supra website, and any changes will be synchronized the next time the eKEY app updates.

Once the keyboxes are in your keybox inventory, showing messages automatically display in the eKEY software whenever a keybox in the inventory is opened.

CBS CODES:

CHANGING YOURKEYBOX'S CBS CODE

Each keybox comes with a randomly generated CBS code. You can change your codes within the Supra E-Key App. The keybox must be in "My Keyboxes" and you must have the shackle code and be near the box to make this change.

First, select the keybox serial number under My Keyboxes, To change the CBS code, tap on the number with your finger. This will place the cursor behind the number. You can edit this number to be any 7 digits you'd like. (We ask that you do not use codes like 1234567, as this makes the keybox access less secure. Do not put CBS codes in listing notes in MLS)

Once you have made the change, select program at the bottom of the screen. You will be prompted to enter the keybox shackle code. Be sure to push up on the bottom of the lockbox to activate the bluetooth and make the red light flash on the front of the box.

SUPRA LOCATION

SETTINGS:

LOCATIONSETTINGS FOR THESUPRA EKEY APP SHOULD BE SET TO ALWAYS. THIS ALLOWS INFORMATION TO BE TRANSMITTED TO LOCKBOX OWNERS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.

When downloading and authorizing the Supra eKey App, you will be asked to grant permission for location services. Please be sure to select the "Always" option. This allows the app to access GPS and create a connection between your phone and a lockbox. This is how Supra is able to generate accurate showing reports and notifications for REALTORS® accessing the key and the lockbox owner.

If you do not select "Always" it can create delays in ending a showing and the lockbox owners receiving notification of who accessed the lockbox and when.

Note:If you forget to end a showing, you will get a notification from Supra prompting you to “end showing”. Please be sure to not ignore these notifications and end all showings. Ignoring these notifications could also create a delay in notifications sent to the lockbox owner.

Additionally, to help the process move more quickly, once you have ended a showing you could also update your eKey app. This will allow notifications to be sent immediately to the lockbox owner, instead of overnight. To manually update your app, click on the update button on the lower menu bar inside the Supra eKey app (looking left to right, it is the 3rd button)

Accurate reports and notifications are important for the listing agent to be able to provide prompt and accurate information to the seller.

4.3. The Importance of Database Maintenance

Once you have decided on a database system, it’s time to carefully and methodically move your contacts from your current various systems – online contacts, mobile phone contacts, business cards – into one, manageable system. If you are currently using a system and plan to stay with it, now is the time to clean up your existing database. Using a system like EPS, which combines a contact manager with a marketing platform, allows you to do the work all in one place. Commit to adding/updating however many contacts you need to in order to complete this work within a week.

As you work through your contacts, reach out to each of them individually and let them know you are a real estate agent, or that you’ve recently moved to EXIT Realty. There is a branded drip campaign in EPS alerting existing contacts that you’ve moved to EXIT Realty. Make sure to include in your communication what sets you apart from your competition. Ask them to keep you in mind for their sphere of influence as well. This initial connection begins what will be an ongoing conversation with them whether it be in print, person, via social media, or over the phone.

You will always be adding to this database. Make sure to connect with prospects whenever the opportunity presents itself. Do you belong to an association? Do you visit the same auto shop or restaurant regularly? Whenever you come into contact with people, they are potential prospects. Make sure they know you are a real estate agent. Provide them with your business card or Mobile Business Card and get one in return. Any contact information goes into your database. Reach out to your contacts on social media in order to gain maximum exposure and build relationships. Maintaining an active pipeline is crucial to your success. There should be a balance of connecting with existing database contacts and always adding new contacts.

4.4. Create a Drip Campaign

Once you have made the initial connection with your contacts, set up a system for regular “touches”.

Whether you do so manually or through automation, make sure you are reaching out to your contacts on a regular basis. EXIT Promo Shop (EPS) contains pre-built drip campaigns that do the work for you. Branded campaigns for prospecting and retention provide beautifully designed marketing pieces. Some campaigns are multi-channel, including emails and activities, while others are email only.

Will you the real estate agent you want to be?

Why do some real estate agents do really well, while others struggle? What is the secret that agents writing over $750,000 in gross commission income know, that those earning less have not learned?

How is it that some agents have vendors knocking down their door to give them listings, while others have to ight hard to win the right to every sale?

If you look at the success of key agents and wonder how they do it, then this guide is for you.

I’ve interviewed hundreds of real estate agents over the past two years and I’ve noticed something. The good ones don’t cold call.

That seems odd doesn’t it? We’ve all been taught that cold calling is an essential in selling real estate.

But in my experience, those agents who write over $750,000 in GCI each year use something much smarter. Their businesses do not follow the typical real estate model of shoe leather, cold calling and transactions. Instead, they use a secret that works much better.

It’s called the Attraction Business Model.

Page 205 of 430
It’s not who you know it’s who knows you!

The Attraction Business

When you are an Attraction Agent, vendors already know about you even if you have never met. When you are an Attraction Agent, vendors have already put you on their shopping list before they list their home. When you are an Attraction Agent, vendors have already decided they will get you in to present to them before you even know they are thinking of selling their home.

How do these agents do it?

They do it by making the shift from being an average Joe Transactional Agent to becoming a Marketing Expert – both for t he properties they sell, and for themselves as a personal brand.

The key strategy behind their Attraction Business Model is the incredible ability of these agents to put forward t he marketing proposition to a vendor.

These are the agents who clearly understand that the right marketing mix will drive significantly more buyers to a vendor’s property

These are the agents who clearly understand that the right advertising and promotional mix shows the marketplace t hey operate in that they are world class at marketing the homes they sell.

These are the agents who use better copywriting, larger print advertisements and better placed online inventory. These are the agents who know the value of excellent photography

By understanding the power of a quality marketing mix, something strange then happens to these agents. They become an attraction business. This means they start attracting other vendors who want to be well marketed as well.

But that’s not the best bit.

When vendors are attracted to you for your marketing, they’ve already made a few subconscious decisions. When vendors are attracted to you for your marketing, they are already open to the idea that “it’s going to cost me more to go with this agent”.

And here’s the clincher. They are not going to mind that it is going to cost them more. These are the vendors who have decided they do not want to give their biggest asset to the second best agent.

You are your brand.

You’d better believe it!

One of the extremely powerful things Attraction Agents believe in that Transactional Agents usually do not, is the power of their brand.

Attraction Agents have a huge amount of belief in the power of their brand. Why wouldn’t they? Every day they see the evidence of the power of their brand and the investment it returns to their business with repeat clients, high levels of trust, stress free selling and great prices achieved for vendors.

Transactional Agents however frequently make the mistake of thinking spending time, money and energy on brand is a waste. They too reap the return of this thinking with fewer sales, worrying about where the next listing will come from, and how they will find the time to chase it down.

Everything you do every day either builds or destroys your brand equity. Attraction Agents understand that they are the CEO of their own brand and invest in it.

Your brand is what they are saying about you in the lounge rooms, cafes, schools and community events – even when you are not there!

Page 208 of 430

Brand = Reputation + Reach

Being a great agent is an impeccable aim. Reputation is critical. In real estate TRUST is the commodity we sell. Lose a sale, lose a client, but never lose your reputation.

However, there are thousands of agents in Mississippi that have exceptional character that no one really knows about. Vendors don’t know they can trust them because they just don’t know anything about them. That is because they have no reach.

By having world class marketing skills, you accelerate your reach and your ability to become an Attraction Agent.

Repu TATI on ReACH

Your brand

Your brand and trust

Word of mouth marketing is the most effective, cost efficient and profitable business you get. Like signboards, word of mouth works 24/7. The business generated from this source comes at a high trust level. And high trust means better fees and a business that is easier and less stressful to run.

When people trust you, you can make the occasional slip up and you will be forgiven. But when there is no trust in the relationship, people scrutinise everything you say.

Page 209 of 430

Attraction Agents are all around the country. Without fail, each of these agents has extremely high trust levels with their clients. And without fail, each of these agents has taken responsibility for managing and investing in their own personal brand.

Here are some winning ways to build trust in your brand.

When presenting your business:

Make sure your “online” marketing and “offline” marketing are “in line” – a consistent standard of excellence should be demonstrated across your business and you need to understand in detail the power of each medium you recommend.

Use quality photography that shows the homes you are selling and your own business in the best light.

Understand the power of larger print advertisements and dominate print in your area.

Pay attention to the details – in the copywriting talking about your homes, in how those homes are presented, in how your business is presented.

When presenting yourself:

Ensure your appearance, voice and behaviour signify professionalism, quality and trust; Make sure your car is spotless; Use hand-written thank you notes; Always be prepared.

3 key elements of attraction agent branding

Social media tips for the Attraction Agent

Social media is not a lead generator for real estate agents but rather a media that allows you to have an ongoing conversation with people who know you. Below are the best ideas and strategies to use this platform.

Be human and real. Share messages as though you are having a cafe conversation. People can detect integrity and respond to it.

Unless you’re going to say something useful or interesting – don’t bother saying it at all.

Your online profile is no longer private. The last thing you want is for a vendor to find those unpleasant pictures of you from that wild party. Remove them – it’s the safest thing. Get real with your Facebook fanpage number. It’s not about the number of people that like your post – it’s about the number of people talking about you. pay attention to the visuals. The overall look and feel of the page needs to capture your brand equity.

Social media management tools such as HootSuite can be an effective way to blast messages all at once to Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Finally, my advice is to outsource or have your PA manage your social media. You should be out doing the critical behaviours like having crucial conversations with vendors and meeting prospective sellers.

The shift from a transactional to an attraction agent

Moving from being a Transactional Agent to an Attraction Agent has three dimensions.

When I am coaching agents, this is the training model I use:

A great real estate coach can show an agent “what to do” and “how to do it” but cannot make them “want to do it”.

The blue print I use in coaching is:

And here are some additional tips:

1. Video feedback is the most effective way of coaching a role play;

2. Changing what you believe is critical. It is extremely hard to sell something you don’t believe in;

3. Tool kits are the most powerful things in our business. Every problem or objection you will ever get has already been experienced by someone, so learn from their examples. You’ll find lots in this guide.

The power of being prepared

A High Impact Marketing Mix – proven to work by the country’s best Attraction Agents - costs money. And it’s money that you need to ask the vendor for.

Transactional Agents hate doing this. They don’t want to ask a vendor any question that they feel the vendor won’t like. They just want to always be able to tell the vendor “yes” in the mistaken belief that it will keep a vendor happy. Transactional agents regularly fear that the conversation with a vendor will get out of control.

But Attraction Agents are cleverer.

Attraction Agents know the best way to keep a vendor happy is for a vendor to feel secure that the actions they are taking will ensure their home is sold for the best price possible. And Attraction Agents know that smart vendors can be made to understand that a quality marketing campaign is a good investment.

Attraction Agents know how to manage conversations with vendors. Attraction Agents have done their homework. Attraction Agents have tools and a script for every question and objection a vendor can have.

If a vendor controls the listing presentation, they will control the advertising and subsequently the marketing campaign - a recipe for failure!”

Page 213 of 430

Attraction Agents understand one key thing that Transactional Agents have not grasped.

Attraction Agents know the role of a real estate agent is NOT to sell the property. It is to get the hidden 10% premium in the market place. They know their mission is not to get the first buyer for their vendor; it is to get the best buyer.

Attraction Agents are committed to helping their vendors understand this formula, to building trust and to take all the steps necessary to unlocking that value. They understand that when you are selling someone’s most valuable asset, this is the greatest service they can do for a vendor.

The hidden 10%
The Formula to get the best buyer is simple: PP = HIA + HIN + BEC + BCB or Premium Price = High Impact Advertising + High Impact Negotiation + Buyer Emotional Connection + Buyer Competition Bidders.
10% 100% Page 214 of 430

pre listing kit: The marketing enabler questionnaire

Without doubt, the Marketing Campaign Questionnaire remains an agent’s greatest tool in their prelisting kit.

You should send it to potential vendors as part of your pre-listing kit prior to the listing presentation. The Marketing Campaign Questionnaire helps the vendor to understand what kind of marketing campaign is needed to meet their sale objectives.

It takes the vendor through different advertising options and helps the vendor to understand the difference between online and print advertising individually, and the power of combining them.

High Impact Advertising includes online and print

online

Online advertising is now a mandatory part of a campaign as industry estimates suggest nine out of ten buyers use the internet as part of their search.

Research also shows that 75%* of people never get past the first page of search results. Therefore your vendor needs to invest in the best online inventory to try to be positioned on the first page of search results. Online companies like Zillow have products such as Premiere listings to improve both the prominence of listings and to get them into the first pages of rankings.

Attraction Agents understand the power of this new online branding and embrace it. And if the homes you’re selling are always at the back end of the search results, what is that saying about your personal and agency brand?

However, online alone will not ensure a high impact advertising campaign. As Frederick Marckini, CEO of US online marketing agency iProspect explains, that if you are not at the top of search results…

print

Even with the best online inventory there is no guarantee of being seen by all potential buyers. If the property is not on the first page of search results you may miss out on seven out of ten potential buyers.

Also research shows that 69%** of buyers use a combination of print and online media to research properties.

Therefore combining online with print will deliver the most effective high impact advertising campaign for your vendor. Print advertising reaches potential buyers that online doesn’t and is the way for a property to be seen in a busy online world.

Remember, for your vendor the family home is the last remaining tax haven in Australia. All the profits are tax free. They don’t have many opportunities like this to increase their wealth. Why risk it by cutting corners?”

Page 216 of 430
You have built a billboard in the woods. No one will find it!”

Print differentiates the property and the agent

As discussed, print advertising reaches potential buyers that online doesn’t and is the way for a property to be seen in a busy online world.

All over North America thousands of homes are sold every week by Attraction Agents who successfully incorporate print into their marketing mix and who use it to differentiate themselves.

In the new connection economy, it’s true that a lot of traditional media has disappeared. Lineage classified advertising has been replaced by far more cost effective and efficient real estate websites. If you are actively in the market looking to buy, it’s much easier to type in your search criteria and scroll through the listings that are a match to kick off your home hunt.

The National Association of REALTORS® analyzed the effectiveness of the different advertising media in its Media Combination Research.

More than 503,000 property transactions across the country were followed over 12 months by NAR. The research looked at where properties were advertised, how long they appeared for, did the property sell, how long did it take to sell and what was the level of discounting?

The research statistically proved two things that Attraction Agents have anecdotally known for a long time

The research statistically proved that homes for sale that are advertised in BOTH print and online are:

1. More likely to be sold than those that use just one medium. (In some areas it was as high as 34%*);

2. Spend less time on the market;

3. Discount their sale price less than homes that are advertised in just one medium. The days on market, discount size and success rate varied market to market.

How to handle the most common advertising objections and power phrases

Dialogue and language agents use is one of the most vital of the critical behaviours. Most importantly it is about:

1. What you say; 2. When you say it; 3. How you say it.

Some powerful phrases to use with vendors: “Investing in marketing your home is not a “cost” it is an “investment” in the profits.” “

The family home has tax benefits, such as homestead exemption. You don’t have many opportunities like this to increase your wealth. Why risk it by cutting corners?”

“Would you like a marketing plan to make you happy or a marketing plan to get you the best price?”

“Your home is on the market in competition not in isolation. And in this market I want to make you shine. So the way I will make you shine is to have your home better priced, better presented and better marketed”

“Taking out an advertising campaign is like taking out car insurance. What you’re insuring is that we don’t under sell the biggest asset that you own” “We refuse to mis-market and apologise later!”

“The first 21 days are crucial. We will never get a second chance at a good first impression” “Online can get congested. ‘75%* don’t go past page 1 of search results.’ This means that nearly 75% of buyers may miss it. So we have to ensure that we come up as high as possible in the internet search results as well as using offline media to guarantee we get noticed. Marketing is about getting noticed – sales is about closing the sale. We won’t be closing a sale if we don’t get noticed”

“If we over market, all we do is spend a few dollars extra to be on the safe side. If we under market we could be under-selling your home by tens of thousands of tax free dollars.”

Common objectives

objection: Can we do it on the quiet for two weeks and see how we go?

Answer: We can, but I would not do it in the first two weeks. Are you looking for the first buyer or the best buyer? When we put a new listing on the market, it’s like we are launching a new product and when a company launches a new product they do high level compressed marketing in the first weeks to make sure they get attention. You simply cannot sell a secret.

objection: Can you just put it on the internet and use your database?

Answer: We can. But 69%* of people agree that they needed a combination of property websites and newspapers to find their property. Print generally gets less buyer enquiries than the internet. However print gets the passive, emotional and aspirational buyer while the internet gets the active, rational, logical buyer. To get a premium price, we need to attract both.

objection: The advertising campaign you’re recommending is too expensive.

I cannot afford it. You cannot afford NOT to take it. One additional buyer could be worth an extra $30,000. NAR believe's you should be investing 1% of the sale price in marketing

Something unimportant done well does not make it important”

30 Laws of the attraction agent

1. Do not copy your competitors. 2. Be super focused on the customer experience, as every touch point of doing business with you is an opportunity to create a raving fan.

If you’re in business, you’re in show business. Every minute your performance is being judged. Give a world class performance every day.

To get stunning results, aim for micro improvements daily. In the end it’s the small changes collectively that make a big difference.

No matter what your position is everyone works in human resources and marketing.

It can take you 20 years to build an incredible reputation and 20 seconds of stupidity to lose it. Don’t think dumb, don’t do dumb.

Right this minute the client is watching you.

Build brand equity. In yourself. Everything you do is either building or destroying your brand.

Change the story you carry with you from self limiting to one that is positive and empowering.

Use lists. Write things down. Check them off.

The fastest way to double your income is to double your rate of learning. Listen to audio books or podcasts.

Stay clear of talk back radio.

Look after your staff and they will look after your customers.

Risks are far less scary once you take them.

Do not care too much about what other people think of you. Care far more of what you think of you.

16. Do not work for work, work for a result. 17. Crucial conversations drive you forward. Avoiding these conversations holds you back. 18. Critical behaviours are highly average actions that give massive results. Think 80/20. That’s right 20% of your activities will give you 80% of your results. 19. Be up by 5am. 20. Go to bed by 10pm. There is nothing useful you can do from 10pm to midnight apart from becoming world class at Facebook. 21. The people who gossip about others when they are not around are the people who will gossip about you when you’re not around. 22. Do yoga. With better awareness, you’ll make a better decision which will lead to better actions, which will lead to better results. It all starts with your thinking. 23. Learn 3 new things a day. That’s a 1000 a year! 24. Don’t tear people around you down. See the best in people and remind them. 25. Live every day as if it’s your last. One day you will be right. 26. The biggest cause of procrastination is perfection. JDI = just do it. 27. Be who you want to be. 28. It’s so easy to say nice things to people. Why not do it more often? 29. Have a clear 30 second elevator speech about what separates you from your competitors. Say it with passion! 30. Never forget you have complete control as to how you interpret a situation and what your response to that situation is.

DIRECTIONS FOR USING YOUR DAILY ACTIVITY RECORD

The following serves as a guide to filling out your Daily Activity Record. BY Implementing THE DAILY ACTIVITY RECORD INTO YOUR BUSINESS YOU WILL BE MAKING A COMMITMENT TO MOVE TO THE NEXT LEVEL OF SUCCESS!!

The items in “teal'' below are fields on the form.

1. Date: Enter today’s date.

2. Day of The Week: Put a slash mark through the day of the week

3. Name: Please print your full name.

4. From: The exact time of day you begin your prospecting session

5. To: The exact time of day you end your prospecting session

6. Calls: You will most likely prospect from the Call Detail Report (800 # leads) and your Sphere of Influence list that has been entered into the database, and the prospects you have developed from your most recent customers. All these calls are accounted for in this box.

**Coding Your Calls on your Daily Activity Records:

/= You dialed a telephone number.

 X = You spoke to someone .

 Seller Lead. Referred to Primary Agent on Seller Information Sheet.

 Buyer Lead with Buyer Information Sheet completed .

 Lender required and Buyer has been referred .

 This is a future lead i.e., "B" or "C" Buyer .

 Buyer and Seller. Must sell before they can buy.

 Seller Information Sheet to Primary Agent.

 Buyer Information Sheet completed. Referred to lender.

7. Summary Results:

Count the above marks from the Prospecting section of your Daily Activity Record as well as the information you have noted on your Buyer Information Sheets and Seller Information Sheets and summarize them in the appropriate field on your Daily Activity Record.

For Example:

Dials: The total number of "Xs" and "/s" is the number of dials

Contacts: The total number of "Xs" is the number of contacts

Leads: You will need to count your Buyer and Seller Information Sheets you have filled out during today's prospecting session in order to determine the following information:

Buyer: The total number of Buyer Information Sheets you have filled out during today's prospecting session is the number of Buyer Leads.

Seller: The total number of Seller Information Sheets you have filled out during today's prospecting session is the number of Seller Leads.

Lender: The total number of prospects you have referred to a lender during today's prospecting session is the number of Lender Leads.

Page 230 of 430

Buyer: The total number of Buyer Information Sheets you have filled out during today's prospecting session is the number of Buyer Leads.

Seller: The total number of Seller Information Sheets you have filled out during today's prospecting session is the number of Seller Leads.

Lender: The total number of prospects you have referred to a lender during today's prospecting session is the number of Lender Leads.

Future: The total number of Buyers or Sellers during today's prospecting session that wants to do something beyond 30 days (8 and C Prospects) is the number of Future Leads

Buyer Appointments Set: The total number of Buyer appointments set.

Seller Appointments Set: The total number of Seller appointments set or Listing Leads given to your Primary Agent on completed Seller Information Sheets.

NOTE: The numbers will not necessary add up.

8. Schedule/Activities:

This area allows you to plan your entire day. Usually, we know what our day will entail before it starts. We know from our Ideal Weekly Schedule which recurring events we will transcribe to our Daily Activity Record. We also know that required APPOINTMENTS must be set. APPOTNTMENTS with customers/clients, home inspectors, appraisers, etc. are listed in this box. Allocation of time for prospecting and follow-up calling is listed in this box. Block off time for unanticipated activities in this box. Minimize substituting these "unanticipated" events with recurring events and events you have scheduled that are time sensitive. Finally, make sure you block times for lunch, dinner and other personal items.

9. Prioritized Task List:

This is your "To Do" list. It delineates those tasks you should get done (that must get done) in the course of doing your real estate business. Every entry is not an "A" task. For example, dropping a document off to a seller is more important than ordering a closing gift; consequently, this is an "A" task. These tasks are to be checked off as they are accommodated and accomplished in the "Schedule/Activities" portion of the Daily Activity Record. View the example of a Daily Activity Record, and you will see that ordering closing gifts would likely get checked as a completed task under the "Schedule/Activities" section delineated as "Office Work".

10. Results/Opportun Opportunities/issues:

**Results: This is where you note the outcomes of your prospecting calls, follow-up calls, lead follow-up calls, calls in which you were asked to call again or tasks you derived as a result of an appointment you may have had with prospective or actual customers/clients. The example of a Daily Activity Record provides some sample entries.

**Opportunities: An opportunity is derived from ALL categories of buyers. You will note an opportunity that is obtained from your prospecting calls, follow-up calls or lead follow-up calls. "A" Buyers represent an opportunity, the Buyer Information Sheet is completed and submitted, and contact is maintained throughout the buying process. Complete the Buyers Information Sheet, accordingly for "B" and "C" buyers that are obtained the same as above.. This allows us to add these potential buyers to our database as future leads. These opportunities may be nurtured by adding these leads to our mailing list or automated MLS email updates. The example on the Daily Activity Record that shows "add to email service" represents an opportunity.

**Issues: Notes are made detailing any concerns you have dealing with customers/clients. You make a note that this is a "difficult client" and will require intervention by your Primary Agent; differences between agent and customer/client that may require resolution by our Team Leader at the company level; or some discussion (Scripts To Dialogs) may be required with respect to "closing the deal".

**Ad & Sign Calls: Every customer/client we serve does not come to you from nowhere. They are referred or have seen one of your advertisements. Noting this on the Daily Activity Record allows us to keep track of how you are obtaining customers. These notes allow us to identify and quantify your leads. Consequently, we can spend advertising dollars where they gain us the most benefit.

12.

5.1. Create a Dirty Dozen

Your Dirty Dozen are a group of people who work on real estate rather than in it. This could be mortgage brokers, lawyers, appraisers, home inspectors. These people have information on different areas of real estate and are a valuable source of information. Each member of your group is typically good for at least two referrals. Be sure to incorporate members at different levels: 30,000 foot view for market trends and information, your MLS area for important local information, and your immediate market area for sharing of information to better serve your clients – and theirs!

• Purchase a traditional planner because you remember what you write down.

• Bring your business plan and target hit list to your planning session.

• Bring market info to review and use that data to maximize every opportunity to engage.

• Determine your Dirty Dozen: A group of people who work on the business, not in it.

• For every upcoming appointment/event in the next six weeks, ask yourself: ◦

How can I maximize on every appointment? ◦

To whom should I be speaking? ◦

What do I need to learn? ◦

How should I prepare? ◦

What value can I bring?

INTRODUCTION

Welcome

Before you get started, we thought we’d give a brief overview of what’s to come.

This guide is about the numbers: How much money you want to make and how much business you’ll have to do to make it happen. You’ll start by figuring out what it costs to pay your bills each month and each year. You’ll use that information to set some goals for how much money will actually end up in your bank account.

With those goals in hand, we’ll guide you through a little math (simple stuff, don’t worry!) to figure out target values for your Gross Commission Income and Sales Volume. Eventually you’ll discover how many leads you’ll have to generate to make those goals a reality.

When you’ve completed the guide, you’ll have all the important facts and figures on that one page. Then you can post it above your desk, or fold it up and put it in your wallet, or stick it on the refrigerator next to your kid’s report card.

Got it? Cool.

Page 302 of 430
Now let’s get started!

PART ONE:

Set your sights on a target.

In this section you’ll analyze your personal spending, and then use that information to determine a goal for your annual take-home income.

Step 1: Determine your monthly personal expenses.

This step is about the the essentials: mortgage or rent, car payments, insurance, utilities, etc. In the box to the right, fill in each field as a per-month value. We’re not mind readers, so if there’s an important personal expense that we didn’t list, use the other fields near the bottom of the chart. At the end, add up the total. That figure is what you need to pay your bills each month. It’s the bare minimum.

Step 2: Determine your annual cost of living.

Mortgage/Rent Car Payment Car Gas Car Maintenance Car Insurance Car Payment Electric Gas Cable Internet Phone Water Food/Entertainment Travel Child Care Savings Health Insurance Cell Phone Credit Card Misc. Other Other Other

MONTHLY TOTAL

So you know how much money it takes to get through one month. Now let’s figure out what you need to pay the bills for an entire year. Take your total monthly expenses and multiply by 12. x 12 =

EXAMPLE: Your average monthly expense are $3,000

$3,000 $36,000 x 12 =

Now plug in your own monthly expenses from the previous section. Page 303 of 430

Step 3: But how much do you really want to make?

You know how much money it takes to get through each month, and you know how much you need to make in an entire year. But you want to do more than just get by, right? Think about vacations, and sports cars, and early retirement, and sending your kids (and your kids’ kids) to college. Use your annual cost of living as a baseline, and write down a goal for how much money you want to bring in each year after taxes. This is your target take-home income.

Target Take-Home Income

Step

4: Don’t forget about Uncle Sam.

1 -

EXAMPLE:Your targeted take-home income is $90,000 and you estimate your tax rate to be 30%

30 .30 = .3

.7 / $90,000 .7
Everything you’ve worked on so far is take-home income. It’s time to figure out your taxable income — the amount of money you’ll have to actually make to be able reach your takehome goal after federal and state income taxes are withdrawn. / 100 = = $128,571
Target Take-Home Income
A B C
Page 304 of 430
WHAT IT MEANS: At a 30% tax rate, you’d have to make about $130,000 in order to bring home $90,000. Now give your own numbers a try.

So there it is.

You know how much money you want to make. Now we’ll figure out how much business you’ll have to do to make it happen.

PART TWO:

What’s your GCI?

Your taxable income is what’s left after transaction fees, commission splits, business expenses, and other costs are deducted from your Gross Commission Income (GCI). To avoid getting too complicated, we’re only going to focus on commission splits and fixed business expenses. We’ll work backwards, filling in the gaps between your target taxable income and a target GCI.

= /
= A B C
Target Take-Home Income
1/ 100 = Page 305 of 430

Step 1: Your broker gets a cut.

A portion of your commission income is going to go to your broker. It may be a straight commission split based on a percentage of you GCI, or it might be capped at a certain value. It really varies from broker to broker. We’ll go over a few different scenarios.

EXAMPLE: Your target taxable income (final step in previous section) is about $130,000. Your broker gets 20% of your Gross Commission Income. 20 .2 = .2 .8 / $130,000 .8

/ 100 =

Taxable Income = $162,500

WHAT IT MEANS: You’d need to earn $162,500 to have $130,000 in taxable income after a 20% commission split. But what if the broker has a cap, such as $10,000?

Taxable Income

Commission Split Percentage + $130,000

Capped Commission Split

$10,000 = $140,000

WHAT IT MEANS: An agent would have to earn $140,000 in order to have $130,000 in taxable income after his/her broker takes a $10,000 capped commission split. Now turn the page and use your own numbers (and remember, only use one of the described methods).

Each year you’ll have Annual Business Expenses that are necessary to operate. These include board dues, application fees, and other services, such as technology costs. Use the chart on the following page to estimate your expenses. Remember to total these up as a yearly cost, as opposed to the monthly costs from earlier in this guide.

Now take the annual total from the bottom of the expenses chart and add it to your final figure from Step 1 (income before commission split). This is your Gross Commission Income.

+ $162,500 $4,000 = $166,500

WHAT IT MEANS: If you have $4,000 a year in annual expenses and you want to earn $162,500 before your broker takes a commission split, you’lll need to earn $166,500 in Gross Commission Income. Now plug in your own numbers.

Targeted CGI

Congrats!

You’ve gone all the way from targeted take-home income to targeted GCI! Add your GCI to the One-Page Success Plan.

Step 2: Continued
Page 308 of 430

PART THREE:

How many deals can you close?

You’ve determined how much you need to earn in annual commission in order to reach your goals. Now we’ll figure out how many homes you need to sell to earn that amount.

Step 1: What’s your sales volume?

Your Gross Commission Income comes as a percentage of your total sales volume. If you can estimate your average commission — both for buyer-side and seller-side transactions — you can use your targeted GCI to determine the sales volume necessary to achieve your goals.

EXAMPLE: Your target GCI is $168,500 and your average commission is 3%.

Average Commission Percentage

When coming up with an estimate for your average commission, you can use your data from a previous year, use the average for you market, or work with your mentor to come up with an estimate. / 100 = A

WHAT IT MEANS: If you want to earn $168,500 in GCI and your average commission is 3%, you’ll need to earn about $5.55 million in total sales volume. Now give your own numbers a try, and then add your target sales volume to the One-Page Success Plan.

Page 309 of 430

/ 100 =

Target CGI =

Target Sales Volume

Step 2: How many homes?

To figure out how many transactions you need to close to achieve your goals, divide your total sales volume by the average sales price of homes in your market. You could also choose an average price that suits your client base.

EXAMPLE: Your targeted sales volume is $5,550,000 and the average sales price of homes in your market is $200,000

Target Sales Volume $200,000 = $5,550,000

/

Average Sales Price 27.75

Target Transactions

WHAT IT MEANS: In order to achieve $5,550,000 in Total Sales volume in a market with an average sales price of $200,000, an agent would have to sell about 28 homes. Now you give it a try, and then add your target transactions to the One-Page Success Plan. /

PART FOUR:

You need leads. How many?

You’ve done the calculations and determined the big numbers. You’ve set goals for takehome income, Gross Commission Income, sales volume, and transactions completed. Now it’s time to figure out how many clients you’ll have to attract.

Step 1: How many buyers? How many sellers?

By using historical data or an estimate based on your targeted clients, estimate what percentage of your closed deals will be sellers, and what percentage will be buyers.

EXAMPLE: You need to close 28 transactions to meet your income goals. You estimate that 60% of your closings will be sellers, and 40% will be buyers.

Percent Sellers = .6

Seller-side Transactions Closed

x

Percent Buyers = .4

Transactions Required 28 16.8 x

Buyer-side Transactions Closed Transactions Required 28 11.2

WHAT IT MEANS: The agent will need to close about 17 sellerside transactions and 11 buyer-side transactions to achieve his goals. You know the drill by now. Use your own numbers to determine how many transactions you’ll have to close on each side Then transfer those goals to the One-Page Success Plan. x

Percent Sellers =

Percent Buyers =

Buyer-side Transactions Closed Transactions Required

Seller-side Transactions Closed Transactions Required x

Page 311 of 430

Step 2: What’s your success rate with sellers?

Getting a listing to the closing table takes a lot of steps. First you have to win the listing appointment. Then you have to hope it’s priced right and will sell. We’ll factor in your success rates for each step to determine how many seller-side leads you’ll need to generate.

EXAMPLE: An agent needs to close 17 seller-side transactions, and estimates he’ll close 80% of his listings.

Seller-side Transactions Required Listings Required

Come up with an estimated success rate based on your own personal experience or use historical data for your market. / = 17

Estimated Success Rate .8 21

Seller-side Transactions Required Listings Required

Estimated Success Rate

WHAT IT MEANS: If an agent wants to close 17 seller-side transactions and estimates that 80% of his listings sell, he’ll need to list 34 homes. Your turn. / =

EXAMPLE: You want to list 32 homes, and you estimate that you’ll win 80% of your listing appointments.

But we don’t win every listing appointment we go on. In order to list 32 homes, how many listing appointments will you need? Estimate your success rate based on your previous experience or speak with your mentor. / = 34

Estimated Success Rate .8 42.5

WHAT IT MEANS: If you win 80% of you listings and want to list 34 homes, you’ll have to go on about 43 listing appointments. Now give your own estimates a shot, and then transfer your estimated listings to the One-Page Success Plan. / =

Target Listing Appointments

Page 312 of 430

Step 3: What’s your success rate with buyers?

Just like the seller-side, buyer-side transactions are bound to fall through. The buyer may not be able to get financing, or he/she may end up working with another agent. Similar to the previous section, we’ll use estimated success rates to determine how many buyer appointments you’ll need to make.

EXAMPLE: You need to close 11 buyer-side transactions to meet your income goals, and you estimate that 90% of you buyers will get financed, get through inspection, and close.

Put

Targeted Buyer-side Clients

/ = 11

WHAT IT MEANS: If you need to close 11 buyer-side transactions and you estimate your success rate at 90%, you’ll need to work with about 12 buyers. Use your own numbers, and then add them to the One-Page Success Plan.

Targeted Buyer-side Clients

You’ve come up with some important goals to shoot for in the next year. As a final step, come up with a list of buyer- and listing-side lead generation activities that you can envision performing on a regular basis. Think about what you can do daily, and weekly, and monthly. You can brainstorm using the workspace and the suggestions below, and then take the best ones and fill in the final boxes on the One-Page Success Plan.

PART FIVE:

5.5. Your Calendar

RULE #1: Always start with the personal and professional end results

The goal here is to start at the end and work backwards.

Ask yourself, “What are my goals?”

Then SCHEDULE the time to produce the results.

RULE #2: Do the important stuff first!

These are the things that are really going to move the needle in your business. So when you’re looking at your day, schedule them for the AM, and when you’re scheduling for the week, plan them for Monday or Tuesday.

RULE #3: Avoid energy-sucking vampires

There are always going to be people or things that distract you. The key here is to block out your schedule so that there’s no room for those energy-sucking vampires!

RULE #4: Do everything in blocks of time!

Instead of trying to multi-task on a million different things, schedule out your day in blocks.

RULE #5: Put it in your schedule

It’s simple, if it’s not in your schedule, it doesn’t exist.

*Include Personal Time in Your Calendar

Time blocking is a time management method that asks you to divide your day into blocks of time

Each block is dedicated to accomplishing a specific task, or group of tasks, and only those specific tasks. ... With days that are time blocked in advance, you won't have to constantly make choices about what to focus on.

I May Have a Buyer for Your Home

Dear Homeowner,

I’m currently working with a buyer who’s been unable to find a home in your area. Your home has many of the features my buyer finds desirable.

If you have any interest in selling your home, I would be more than happy to arrange a one-party showing of your property.

Please contact me at (123) 456-7890 to discuss.

Thanks!

Dear Seller,

It was nice talking with you today about your house on street name in city/town . I hope this note finds you well and I appreciate the opportunity to continue to discuss the marketing of your home.

I have a comprehensive, real, and effective marketing plan to market and sell your home. When you ask other agents what their specific plan is, most, if not all, actually don't have a marketing plan. Their plan is to stick a sign in the yard and pray. It takes much work, utilization of specific technology and marketing techniques to help sellers sell a home in this market. I have personally closed over # properties in area and understand what it takes to market homes successfully.

Please go to custom URL to see a small portion of my personal digital marketing strategy. When you list your home with me I will convert this video to the new custom website I will create specifically for your home with your home’s address as the domain name. I have purchased home address as URL and forwarded it to my personal website. My marketing plan is comprehensive, complete and very effective, an EXIT Realty exclusive. I will create a website specifically for your home which will have a professional virtual tour, beautiful professional photos, and an easy-to-use text code for immediate pictures and information about your home.

Click on this link to see an example of a professional virtual tour that I create for my listings (hyperlink the words “this link” to the branded demo virtual tour in the EMS). The pictures are worth every bit of what I spend and your home deserves the very best in marketing. I will create a lawn sign with a custom text code so buyers have access to information 24/7. When they text for information, I am notified right away so I can call them back and prequalify them to buy your home. I also create a Google Earth Map for your home which is included in the custom website for your home like the one you will see when you text EXITSIGN to 85377.

Professional pictures, professional virtual tours, custom property text codes, beautifully designed property flyers, custom website, Google earth mapping, featured home positioning on many websites, and an amazing digital marketing strategy are how we bring buyers and sellers together. I'd appreciate being able to help.

I hope to hear from you soon and have a great day!

Own It

Transfer of title moves ownership of the property from the seller to you. The two events that make this happen are:

Delivery of the buyers funds

This is the check or wire funds provided by your lender in the amount of the loan.

Delivery of the deed

A deed is the document that transfers ownership of real estate. The deed names the signatures of the seller and witnesses.

It will be sent to you after processing.

6.5. Open Houses

Do houses sell at open houses? Yes, they do! Some savvy buyer’s agents draft a blank offer to take with them to open houses, if the client falls in love with the home you can write an offer on the spot. Open Houses can offer several opportunities:

• to showcase and possibly sell the home

• to obtain buyer clients

• to promote yourself

If you are a new agent trying to build up a client base, consider partnering with a more experienced colleague and accompany them on their open houses to get an idea of how it works. Once you are confident, offer to conduct open houses for busy agents.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success
Page 341 of 430

6.5. Open Houses Tips

1. Use a professional stager if the house is a fixer-upper. At least the sensitive feedback comes from the stager rather than you.

2. Use a professional photographer/videographer for your MLS and marketing material photos and videos to present the home – and your image – in the best possible light.

3. The old advice about having the house smell like baked cookies or apple pie is still pertinent because it works.

4. Remove personal affects from the home. It will be more difficult for prospective buyers to picture themselves in the home if there are pictures of great-grandma everywhere.

5. Have an electronic or material guestbook so you can collect potential buyer contact information. Some buyers are hesitant to provide this information but tell them the seller is more comfortable knowing who is visiting their home.

6. Tell your sellers to lock away any valuables. Remind them you will not typically be following the potential buyers around. Better to err on the side of caution.

7. Don’t hover around potential buyers but be available should they have questions.

8. Remind visitors to remove shoes.

9. Have water and snacks on hand that won’t make a mess. Items like granola bars are a good choice.

10. Keep safety in mind. It might be a good idea to buddy up with a colleague, so you are not in the house alone. Or, have a mortgage broker or some other real estate-related professional accompany you.

11. Never go into the basement or any area that makes you vulnerable when alone with a stranger.

12. Be sure to have lots of business cards available.

AGENT RESPONSABILITES

Page 349 of 430

The Role of the Real Estate Licensee in the Home Inspection Process.

I. Obligations under license law – it’s ALL about who you represent

a. Fiduciary duties

i.To the Buyer client - Rule IV C – fiduciary duty of skill, care and diligence would require recommending a home inspection

ii.To the Seller client – obligations of skill, care and diligence owed with respect to the obligations of the Property Condition Disclosure (89-1-501- )

If anything on the home inspection report requires amending the Property Condition Report, delivery of the amendment to the Buyer’s agent/buyer is required to avoid the 3 day termination.

b. Listing agents/brokers (through the seller) determine how showing or inspections are conducted

c. Home Inspectors’ access with their MLS key does not extend to buyer

d. Home Inspectors do not have access to MLS and do not see Showing Instruction. Appointments must be made through agents.

IV. Process by which a home inspector referral is made by a licensee:

a. Reiterate to the buyer that you are not an inspector and that a professional licensed home inspector should be hired.

b. There is no magic number, such as 3, that you should recommend Provide the buyer a list of inspectors who you have first-hand knowledge of their expertise then let the buyer do the hiring.

c. Recommend only Mississippi licensed home inspectors If a sale is contingent upon a home inspection, the inspector must be licensed in Mississippi; if not, inspection should be performed prior to offer being written (interpretation of license law)

d. Recommend that the buyer vet the potential inspectors:

a. How long they’ve been in business?

b. Are there any claims against the company?

c. Is he/she qualified to inspect special features that apply: EIFS/Stucco, pools, spas, gas logs, etc.

d. Is he/she qualified to inspect new homes if applicable

VI.At the inspection – who attend?

a. Buyer’s agent has the fiduciary duty to accompany the client to the home inspection if the buyer chooses to go (and wants his/her agent to go) but NOT walk through the property with the inspector. The agent can best represent the client’s interest in a home inspection if he/she is there are to hear what has been said by the home inspector.

On the other hand, If the buyer wants to attend the home inspection but DOES NOT want his/her agent to attend, then the agent should not attend. If there are further negotiations needed as a result of the Home Inspection, the client might be at a disadvantage since the agent was not there to see/listen/understand what the problems were and how they should be communicated to the seller.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 351 of 430

b. Misinformation: MYTH: “there is too much liability”. Liability is created when a licensee says or does something they shouldn’t or fails to fulfill agency obligations.

It’s conduct at the inspection that puts licensees at risk, not their presence.

Buyer’s Agents’ roles are

a. to be there to protect the seller’s property as was done during all prior showings

b.owes seller the obligation of being honest and fair in all dealings

c. Not tag along with the Home Inspector

d.Counseling the buyer on what is appropriate and reasonable for the seller to correct; must know the problem before they can make an intelligent suggestion to their clients

e. to provide adequate opportunity for the buyer to talk to the inspector about his/her findings

f.A buyer present without an agent is trespassing UNLESS the seller/listing agent has given explicit written permission for the buyer to be there unsupervised by an agent.

Disclosed Dual Agent’s role:

Dual Agency scenarios will cause some unavoidable liability issues to the firm because of the obligations to the buyers who need assistance. Those cases should be handled by written office policy.

Home Inspector’s role:

a. The home inspector has no responsibility for the buyer’s actions.

b. The home inspector’s authority to enter does NOT extend to the buyer.

c.If a buyer shows up at a home inspection without an agent, the home inspector can ASSUME that permission have been granted by the seller for the buyer to be there unattended.

V. The Home Inspection Report

a. Who does it belong to?

The person whose name is on the agreement with the Home Inspector regardless of who pays for it.

b. Should the buyer’s and seller’s agent get a copy of the report?

The Buyer’s Agent – Yes (single agency relationship). Buyer’s agent owes the buyer the fiduciary duty of reasonable care and diligence to review the report with the buyer and provide guidance.

However, licensee must get permission from the buyer to provide the report to a third party including the seller and other technicians or contractors.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 352 of 430

The Seller’s Agent - No. Accepting the complete report is putting the seller’s agent in a position of having PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE which leads to liability issues and consequences directly related to the Property Condition Disclosure Statement. If the buyer is requesting repairs the seller’s agent should request a list of those repairs or a summary, but not the full report.

c.Should a licensee encourage a buyer to rely upon a home inspection report prepared previously for another potential buyer? No. The home inspector is liable only to the person who owns and paid for the original report.

JUST FOR FUN……JURY TALK

From Oliver Frascogna’s Digital Paper Trail:

The Buyer’s Agent is the “All Powerful Expert in Theory.” In the eyes of the pubic the Buyer’s Agent is all things to all people. She is an expert on all matters. When you are a buyer’s agent or assisting a buyer in any form, you must emphatically and repeatedly stress that you are not an expert beyond the scope of your professional real estate duties and license. Do so nicely in writing. Remember the buyer is usually the one who will bring the suit, and you are the number one person auditioning for the position as defendant.”

Never go through the home with the inspector! Consider your being in the witness chair in this conversation:

Clerk of the Court: “Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?”

REALTOR® : “Yes, I do”

Attorney: “Do you care about your buyer?”

REALTOR®: “Yes, I do”

Attorney: “If you saw something during the inspection that the buyer missed, would you point it out to them, or keep quiet?”

REALTOR®: “I would point it out, of course.”

Attorney: “I admire you for that. I knew you would. Now, what if you saw something that the inspector missed. Would you point that out to your buyer, or keep it to yourself?”

REALTOR®: “I would point it out, of course.”

Attorney: “So, ladies and gentlemen of the jury. I think that you can see that the buyers, my clients, were justified in relying on the REALTOR. Not only was he inspecting the property, but he was supervising the buyer and the inspector.”

The Contract-to-Close Process

Following is an overview of the general contract-to-close process. Specifics will vary according to state, province, and local regulations.

Basic contract-to-close process flow

Contract-to-Close - EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty - 228.388.5888

ACCEPTANCE ACCEPTANCE INSPECTION REPLY REJECTION COUNTER OFFER(s) REJECTION LOAN FUNDED LOAN UNDERWRITTEN LEGAL RECORDING OFFER INSPECTION CLEAR TITLE REJECTION OTHER ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS HUD 1 CLOSING OWNER POSSESSION ACCEPTANCE Page 359 of 430

Steps in the basic contract-to-close process

• Offer: Contract proposal from the buyer received by the seller through their agent, extending terms, which, if agreed, form the basis for a sales contract.

• Acceptance: Seller accepts all proposed terms and conditions and is ready to sign the contract and move toward closing.

• Counteroffer(s): Seller’s amendments to the offer, creating an opportunity for further negotiation with the buyer. The buyer may reply

• Rejection: Seller decides not to pursue the offer further, or buyer rejects a seller’s counter—ending the negotiations.

•Inspection: Buyer conducts all required or desired inspections—physical, environmental, etc.—and receives a report (if a professional inspector is used).

• Inspection Reply: Buyer’s document itemizing desired improvements or repairs resulting from observations or tests performed during inspection.

•Inspection Reply Acceptance or Rejection: Seller determines their response to the inspection reply and amends contract terms to reflect what they are, or are not, willing to do to comply with the buyer’s requests. This process, a further negotiation of the contract, continues until it is either totally resolved, or until the contract fails.

•Clear Title: Buyer and seller have an opportunity to review a preliminary report of title (local forms of this vary) that reflects whether any encumbrances, liens, or other issues have been discovered that might prevent the buyer from taking clear title to the seller’s property.

•Loan Underwritten and Funded: While the buyer and their agent have lead responsibility here, the listing agent also has a responsibility to the seller to assure that the buyer’s loan is progressing with all due haste—and that it will fund for closing in a timely manner.

•Other Escrow Instructions: Either or both parties may have given the title and or escrow company (in some states these two are one and the same) special instructions about disbursement of funds. Both agents have a responsibility to make sure any questions about the disbursement details are answered to avoid last-minute delays.

•HUD 1: Federally required (in the United States) document summarizing charges and credits to the parties at closing is made available to both agents several days before the parties sign—for review, and to ensure all instructions have been followed and all costs and proceeds are understood and agreed.

•Closing: Parties each sign the required documentation with a title and or escrow officer present to oversee the signing process. Funds are presented by the buyer or the buyer’s lender to satisfy terms of the sale. The seller receives their proceeds from the sale.

•Recordation and Possession: The transaction becomes part of the records of the local government entity with jurisdiction, and the transaction is complete. The buyer takes possession of the property that the seller has vacated, unless a seller carryover or buyer preoccupancy has been part of the contract.

TIP

Continue your marketing even after the home has sold.

For a listing, add a “sold” rider to your yard sign. For a buyer sale, put a sign in the yard that says, “Another home sale by ” and your phone number

Some agents say using these riders will stop inquiries to your sign. Perhaps, but they are just as likely to trigger calls from people who think,“I want to work with an agent who makes sales happen.”

Aim High Customer Service Focus

By following the processes and using the tools you received in this session, you will naturally provide 10+ customer service throughout the transaction. This will “wow” your customers and impress upon them what uniquely great customer service you offer.

A benefit for you is that past clients who advocate for their friends to use your services is cheap marketing! Gaining referrals from past clients is one of the easiest ways to generate business. Follow the steps below to ensure referrals from your clients:

1. Ask for feedback on your service from all parties involved in the transaction, not just your client. Send a modified version of the customer satisfaction survey on the previous page to the co-op agent, their client, the closing/title/escrow company officer, lender—anyone who played a role in helping to close the transaction. Doing so will enhance your professional image. You can use the positive feedback testimonials for future marketing material too.

2. Send them a handwritten thank-you note as well as a gift. They will remember you for referrals and future business. Gift ideas include:

• Movie tickets

• Gift baskets

• Gift certificates

• Something you know they will need in their new home

• If they are relocating, something related to the new city they are moving to (a guide, tickets to a local attraction, etc.)

3. Keep in touch! Maintain regular contact and use scripts to practice, always ask for referrals. Remember, you need to stay at the top of their mind; even if they won’t be conducting another real estate transaction in the near future, chances are they know someone who is.

Prepaid items vs. closing costs--

What's the difference?

There's no doubt that mortgage closing disclosures can be confusing.

There are very few instructions to explain the forms, and the documents bear some, but little, resemblance to the Loan Estimate.

The areas that can be most confusing to homebuyers are in Sections F and G known as:

• "Prepaids"

• "Initial Escrow Payment at Closing"

What does prepaid mean?

Prepaid items are exactly what the name implies - payments made in advance of the monies due to obtain your new loan.

These amounts are often necessary to fund what's known as an "escrow" or "impound" account for property taxes and insurance. Lenders often require homeowners, especially those with less than 20 percent down, to have escro accounts associated with their mortgage loan. This means homeowners pay an additional amount each month to an account administered by the lender.

An escrow account on behalf of the lender lowers the its risk by making sure the home is protected. No liens for missed taxes should occur, and property insurance coverage protects the lender's collateral.

What are prepaids on a mortgage?

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 369 of 430

When it comes to mortgage loans, there are several different types of prepaid items, the most common are:

• Homeowners insurance premium paid up front as well as into an escrow account

• Real estate property taxes paid into an escrow account

• Mortgage interest (also known as per diem interest) that accrues between the closing date and month-end

Prepaid items: taxes and insurance

Typically, one full year of homeowner's insurance is collected and prepaid to your insurance company at closing. Alternatively, some homeowners choose to pay this amount prior to closing.

An additional cushion for homeowners insurance, along with property taxes, are collected and placed into an escrow account. This is so your new lender can build reserves and have enough to pay those bills when they come due.

Prepaids: mortgage interest

Mortgage interest is collected as a prepaid item so the lender can apply it to your first mortgage payment. This way, no matter which day of the month you close, the lender has at least 30 days to enter your data into its system, and issue your first statement.

The amount of interest required varies depending on what time of the month you close your loan. Some homeowners close at the end of the month so that it reduces the interest accrued in advance of your first monthly mortgage payment.

A common misnomer is "skipping a payment." The feeling of skipping that first payment comes because you've paid the first payment at closing, in advance of it actually coming due.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 370 of 430

Difference between prepaids, closing costs

There is a difference between prepaids, closing costs and fees. Prepaid items are not closing costs. They are monies that would have been paid anyway new home loan or not.

Prepaid items, listed above, are figures on your Closing Disclosure unrelated to the process of getting a mortgage. The exception to this is upfront mortgage insurance premiums (MIPs) for Federal Housing Administration (FHA) mortgage loans.

Closing costs on the other hand, describe all of the fees or charges for actions or items connected to originating and closing a mortgage loan. Closing costs can include things such as:

• Payments to title companies

• Attorney fees

• Governmental title recording fees

• Lender fees

Some homebuyers wonder, "Is the inspection part of closing costs." The answer is "typically not." Generally the homebuyer orders and pays for an inspection to gain a detailed understanding of the home's condition. Sometimes, the homebuyer is able to use the inspection report to gain price concessions from the seller or to negotiate certain repairs to the home. In cases where a

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 371 of 430

homebuyer doesn't pay for the inspection fee promptly at the time of service, inspection fees could be handled at closing as part of the closing costs.

Closing costs and prepaids factor into mortgage loan comparisons

Understanding what is included in closing costs for buying a house and the difference between prepaids, closing costs and other fees associated with closing can help you shop for lower mortgage rates.

Prepaid items should be the same from one lender to the next. They are separate from your mortgage closing costs, rate and terms. As such, you can remove them from your cost comparisons.

Separating closing costs and prepaids should make comparing mortgage rates easy. If you're unsure about whether a certain item is included in closing costs or prepaids, just ask yourself a simple question: "Is this a charge that I would have if I wasn't borrowing to buy the house?"

If the answer is "yes," it's a prepaid item.

(INTRODUCTION)

Real estate school may have filled your head with the knowledge necessary to be an effective student of the profession, but it's mostly designed to help you effectively pass the licensing tests. So now that you're licensed, what do you do? Now the real learning begins. You need to develop effective habits and systems early in your career in order to keep clients coming to you on a steady basis for years to come.

As a new agent, you're the CEO, President and owner of a start-up business -- a business with zero clients. Every morning when you wake up, you're essentially unemployed. Yes, you will more than likely be working with a well-established company in your area that will provide training and mentoring during your first few years. This company will also have rules, guidelines, and ethical standards, and will provide an office for you to work out of. But what this company will not do is grow your business. It will not write your business plan. It will not develop your work habits or give you clients.

Eighty percent of all small businesses fail during their first three years. Interestingly enough, around eighty percent of all new real estate agents do not renew their licenses after their first three years. Coincidence? Probably not. Don’t be part of the 80 percent. This is the best profession in the world if you do it right. Use this handbook to give "You, LLC" the road map for the first 60 days of the rest of your career.

(STEP ONE: FIXED COSTS)

Running a business isn’t free.

Hopefully someone has told you along the way that it's not cheap to get started in the real estate business. There are some unavoidable fixed costs that are necessary before you can get up and running. On top of that, you still have to pay your own personal expenses, and since commissions won’t be rolling in on Day 1, a good rule of thumb is to have at least six months of living expenses in the bank. To estimate your startup costs, use the chart to the right. If you’re not sure how to estimate some of these costs, get help from a friend, mentor, or managing broker.

(STEP TWO: CREATE A FOUNDATION)

Build your network. Get organized.

Part 1: The Sphere of Influence

This is one of the most important exercises for a new agent. Laying the foundation for your Sphere of Influence will set the stage for success for years to come. On the other hand, if there’s a prominent reason for agents not making it through the first three years, it may be poor management and development of the Sphere of Influence.

Your “sphere” is everyone you know or are acquainted with in your life. This includes family, friends, former co-workers, classmates, and neighbors, but it doesn’t stop there. It also includes your husband or wife, or girlfriend or boyfriend ... and it includes all of their friends, family, co-workers, classmates, etc. Sit down with your partner, your parents, and anyone else close to you, and brainstorm about who you can add to your sphere. Social media networks -- such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn -- make it easier than ever to identify people in your sphere.

Go through your contacts in each of these locations and make a list of the people you know. You can use the spreadsheet provided as a companion download to this guide, or you can just build your list in a word processor or on paper. Be as thorough as you can. Keep a name, address, email, and phone number for each contact. If you don’t have complete information, this is a perfect time to pick up the phone, send an email, or send a Facebook message asking for your contact’s information and letting them know about your new career. Here’s an example:

“Hi John, it’s (Your Name). Long time no talk! I’m updating my contacts for my new real estate business, and I wanted to make sure I had your information right. I think I may have an old address, so would you mind giving me your current address?”

It’s as easy as that. You made contact, and now they know you’re getting into the real estate business. Once you have your list of contacts completed you’re ready for the next step.

Part 2: Manage your database

No, you cannot use Facebook or your phone contact list as a long-term solution to managing your clients. You need a Customer Relationship Management program, or CRM. A CRM is a way to organize, categorize and keep track of everyone you know. You can make contact through this system and make notes. You can also manage tasks and responsibilities to your clients. Pick a system that is easy for you to use.

There are several CRMs on the market, so do some research and find one you feel comfortable with. Some common CRMs include Microsoft Outlook, ACT (for real estate), and Top Producer. After making an informed choice, take the time to learn the system. Then take the contact list your created in the previous step and load it into your new CRM.

Your CRM will be your home base of operations. Every time you meet someone new or hear of someone who may need to buy or sell a home you will add them to this database. As your personal database grows so will your business.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 380 of 430

(STEP

THREE: GET A MENTOR)

It’s never fun reinventing the wheel. Speak to your broker or find an experienced agent in your office who is willing to be your mentor over the next several months. Keep in mind that a good mentor may be busy with his or her own work, so make a structured plan for when you can ask important questions and learn how your mentor is doing business. The technical details of real estate, such as contract writing and negotiations, are very important and need to be taught by your mentor. You can also work with your mentor to seek out business development and lead generation techniques. Find a mentor who is willing to share how he or she became successful and will impart experience and wisdom to you.

Just don’t expect your mentor to hold your hand through the entire process. You have to take initiative. Be proactive in seeking guidance. Mentors aren’t mind readers.

(STEP FOUR: ANNOUNCEMENT LETTERS)

It’s time to let the world know that you’re now a real estate agent! Craft a letter that you can mail or email -- or perhaps both -- to the database you just completed. This letter will be the announcement letting people around you know that you’ve started a new career and you’re building a client list. Make this letter personal, and don’t be afraid to ask for referrals. You cannot get what you do not ask for! Be sure to tell them how to send business your way, and be specific.

When you send the letter to your sphere, make sure you stick a business card in the envelope. An even better idea is to include a refrigerator magnet with your card stuck to it. You can get blank refrigerator magnets at most office supply stores. Peel off the paper and stick your business card to it, and there you have it: a refrigerator magnet that the people in your sphere will see every day.

You’re not done yet, by the way. This can’t be the only message you send out. Be sure to track who responds to your announcement letter. Send out another letter one month later thanking everyone for the positive feedback and letting them know how business is going.

(STEP FIVE: PLAN FOR THE FUTURE)

Part 1: Create a business plan.

It’s prudent to have a plan. Your business plan is your road map to success. It’ll guide you over the next year and help you measure your progress. Coming up with a business plan

Don’t be afraid to ask for help.
Tell everybody. Then tell them again.
Don’t just wing it.
EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 381 of 430

can be difficult for new agents due to some of the unknowns of the business, so have your mentor, broker, or a trusted agent in your new office help you. You can also try the Success Plan, which will help you create a business plan step-by-step.

Part

2: Create a marketing plan.

How are you going to get business? What lines are you going to put in the water to find buyers and sellers, and how are you going to make money? These questions are important to your survival over the next three years, and you can answer them by creating a marketing plan. Again, for a new agent you may need some guidance from a mentor, broker, or trusted agent in your new office. Give the Marketing Action Plan a try. (STEP SIX: STAYING INFORMED)

Become an expert.

Part 1: Keep up with the news.

You may not immediately be able to walk the walk, but you sure can start to talk the talk. One of the best things a new agent can do is read, read, and read some more. You should read everything you can get your hands on -- local business and real estate news, national real estate news, blogs, realtor board news, etc. Read everything.

One of the barriers to success for new agents is that they’re not sure what to talk about with prospective clients, who will invariably ask, “How is the market?” Well, what are you going to say? By reading current events, and understanding what is going on in real estate in your region, you can answer these questions intelligently. You’ll also pick up the industry jargon, which will make you sound like an expert if used in the right situations.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 382 of 430

Part 2: Get involved in the industry.

Engagement and involvement are imperative to a quick start. The more active you are, and the more people you speak with in the real estate business, the more success you’ll have. Attend any real estate-related event you can over the next 60 days. Some events you should be going to:

Company meetings

Broker open houses Affiliate events/training Company listing tours

Parties/Networking Charity events HOA meetings

Activity begets success. Engaging with other people in the business will give you growing confidence and knowledge, and it will show when you’re speaking with new or prospective clients. You never know when or where you’ll run into a new lead that you can capitalize on.

Part

3: Get to know your affiliate partners.

These are people in your area who are involved in the real estate industry in a support or affiliate role. These industries include, but are not limited to: Mortgage, Title, Moving and Storage, Staging, Attorneys, Extended Stay Housing, and many more.

As a new agent you may not know people in these industries yet. Ask your mentor, broker or a trusted agent in you office for several referrals. Make some calls and set up appointments to meet people in these industries. Create lasting relationships with several people in each industry. These alliances will both help you grow your business and be great contacts for your clients.

You’ll also gain knowledge of their companies and what they do. Don’t be afraid to tell them you’re new. Many good affiliates will recognize a new agent’s potential and will look to help you in any way they can.

Part 4: Practice makes perfect.

To be an accomplished professional in any arena you have to practice. Professional athletes practice every day to be at the top. The more you practice and rehearse in your head or with fellow agents, friends, or family, the better you will be when the time comes to perform.

Practice the questions that will be asked of you and run your answers over and over in your head. The following are some examples of questions that are asked of real estate agents from prospective clients:

“How’s the market?”

“I would love to sell my home, but I’m not sure what it’s worth.”

“Why would I use you as my agent? My neighbor is in real estate.”

“How would you market my home?”

“Tell me about your company.”

“What are the interest rates right now?”

“Is it better to rent or buy a home right now?”

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 383 of 430

“I’m calling about the listing your company has on ABC Street, can you tell me a little about it?”

These are just a few questions being asked by people thinking about making a real estaterelated decision right now. Ask your mentor or broker what hot topics or issues are happening in your area. Practice your unique answers to these questions over and over in your head. As you role play these situations, don’t short yourself. In order to feel comfortable when the time comes to really answer these questions effectively and look like an expert, you have to have answered each question a hundred times in your head.

Part 5: Never stop learning.

By now you should have a mentor, and you should be reading everything you can get your hands on, but don’t stop there. Seek out educational opportunities as often as you can to learn more about all facets of the profession. Your confidence level will rise with each class taken. Seek a wide variety of classes. Fill in the following table with upcoming educational events you will attend for the next 60 days.

Topic Location Date Time

By completing each step in this handbook, you’re well on your way to making a successful start to your new career. Keep a positive attitude, be patient, and the clients will come in time.

REFERRAL PLAYBOOK

STEPS FOR MORE REFERRALS

Page 385 of 430

INTRODUCTION

No referrals, no business.

This seven-part guide should serve as a resource that will ignite ideas and help you build a solid foundation of best practices and habits for generating leads from referrals. Simply put, developing a business based on referrals is not just important, but mandatory for a successful career in real estate. The agent who ignores the need to promote his or her business by referral may survive, but the reliability and quality of incoming leads will be severely compromised.

STEP 1

Are you sending mixed messages?

Completely remove yourself from your world and think from the outside-in, rather than the inside-out. What does your sphere of influence see, hear, think, and assume about you, your services, your brand, and your company? Take a deep look in the mirror and assess your current situation.

1.Do clients see someone who is successful?

Why did you answer yes or no?

2.Do clients see someone who is passionate?

YES NO YES NO

Why did you answer yes or no? Page 386 of 430

3.Do clients see someone who cares?

Why did you answer yes or no?

4.Do clients see a winner?

Why did you answer yes or no?

5.Do clients see someone who is organized?

Why did you answer yes or no?

6.Do clients see someone with confidence?

Why did you answer yes or no?

If you answered “no” to any of the previous questions, here are a few solutions:

Remove the word “busy” from your vocabulary.

There’s not a single good use for it. When you think “busy,” your brain stops taking on new challenges and opportunities. When you say “busy,” your sphere will stop referring business to you because they don’t want to make you busier. By most accounts, the only person who wants you to be busy is you. We don’t want to cause anyone else to be busy, we want them to be happy, available, active, content, and excited.

Best practice: From now on, replace the word “busy” with something else. When someone asks how business is going, say “exciting” or “great.”

YES NO
Page 387 of 430
YES NO YES NO YES NO

Be passionate.

When someone meets you, do they leave thinking, “Boy, hopefully he gets hit by a bus so his day gets better?” People want to do business with agents who love what they do. Make a conscious decision to be exuberant about what you have to offer.

Best practice: The top-producing agents possess a level of passion that is on a different scale than the average agent. They have the same skills, tools, advantages, and disadvantages as every other agent, but their passion is their biggest differentiator.

STEP 2

Ask thoughtfully. Ask often.

This is the hardest part of the equation. For most of us, it’s not part of our DNA to ask for help, and, in essence, that’s exactly what’s happening when you seek referrals. The funny thing is we love helping people. We often help people who don’t even want our help. Helping is comfortable, but asking for help can be uncomfortable.

So what do we do?

Change your words. Don’t ask for help, offer it.

Harder: “Hey Steve, do you know anyone who might be thinking of buying or selling a home in the next year?”

Easier: “Hey Steve, I’d be really happy to help anyone you know that might be buying or selling a home this year. Do you know of anyone?”

Scripts can feel awkward. Write a dialogue that feels natural to you:

Page 388 of 430

People don’t need a car salesman, they need a car.

Instead of offering your professional services, consider having a conversation about your product, such as a home for sale or a buyer who needs a home. This makes the conversation more comfortable for you because it’s less about you needing a new client and more about you helping people find what they need. Take a look at the examples below:

Harder: “Hey Sarah, I specialize in investment property. Do you know of anyone who needs an agent who specializes in that field?”

Easier: “Hey Sarah, I just saw a home come on the market that would make a great rental. If you know of anyone who wants investment property, this would be a great opportunity.”

Easier: “Hey Sarah, I have a couple clients looking for rental properties to buy. If you know of anyone who is tired of being a landlord, let me know. Do you know anyone with rentals?”

Write a dialogue that feels natural to you:

Money Maker (at the end of every conversation): “Oh, by the way, I just showed a great property for a first-time home buyer. If you know of anyone looking for their first home you’d be doing them a huge favor by letting them know about this deal. Have them give me a call.

You don’t have to specifically ask for referrals.

By helping people with no expectations of reciprocity, they will help you in return. This works especially well with other business owners when you can add value to their business.

Easier: “John, is there any way I can help you in your business or with something you’re passionate about?”

Write a dialogue that feels natural to you:

Page 389 of 430

Play to the ego.

We all know people who like to have their egos boosted. Don’t be afraid to give the following verbiage a try:

Easier: “Michelle, you are so connected to all the right people and they all trust you. If I gave you some cards, would you give them out if someone you know has real estate needs?”

Write a dialogue that feels natural to you:

Help People to Help Others

Take yourself out of the equation. One powerful sales technique is to give people the opportunity to help someone else.

For example: “I’ve got a really nice family I’m trying to help get moved, and unfortunately, we just haven’t found the right buyer for their home. So, if you happen to come across anyone who might be looking to move to the [West side of town], you’d be really helping them out.”

Write a dialogue that feels natural to you:

“Hey Steve, I’d be really happy to help anyone you know that might be buying or selling a home this year. Do you know anyone?”

Your mission should be to make sure everyone you know and come in contact with understands that you do business by referral. The steps to building this into your brand are simple and will pay off in big dividends over time. For example, all of your marketing materials should include a referral message. Take a look at the examples below:

Example Taglines:

“A referral from a friend, past client, or colleague is the highest compliment I can ever receive.”

“I’m never too busy to accept a referral.”

“I love referrals.”

“Because I work by referral, I have more time for my customers.”

“Because my business is built on referrals, please consider me the next time you talk to someone who needs a real estate professional.”

“Please consider me the next time you know of someone who is moving.”

“I treat every referral with the utmost care.” “Things I love in this world: family, friends, fun, and referrals. ”

STEP 3 Make referrals a part of your brand. •Email signature •Website •Postcards •Letterhead •Newsletters •License plate frame •Name tag •Bios on social media networks (and posts, when possible)
What taglines can you think of for your personal brand?
Page 391 of 430

STEP 4

Choose your targets.

Find and care for your best referral sources. Some people will never refer you because it’s just not in their DNA. However, some people are like bird dogs who go out and find buyers and sellers every day and are willing to refer you. Once you know who the best referrers are, really focus on taking care of them. You may already have an idea of who refers you and who doesn’t, but consider the following activities to narrow it down even more.

Start a discussion.

Next time you’re with some friends—maybe friends who you would expect to refer you, but haven’t—simply ask them how they feel about giving out referrals in general. This is good dinner conversation, and you’ll learn a lot about what scares them about referring. Later, you can turn the discussion toward helping them overcome some of those fears.

Figure out who’s who.

Here is a great little trick for identifying the good referrers. Next time you need a product or service, ask for a referral on a social media site. Facebook typically works best because these are your friends, family, and clients, who are the target for referrals. Make sure it is an honest and genuine request.

Audit your sphere: Filter through your contacts, including your online social media contacts. Identify influential individuals, who seem to know everyone, and reach out to them to say hello or ask them to get coffee. Consider these personality profiles: chronic party-thrower, PTA President, Country Club President, Director of the HOA, most popular at your last job, most popular at your spouse’s workplace, successful business people, etc.

Who are your best referral sources?
Page 392 of 430

STEP 5

Take advantage of social media.

As we’ve all come to realize, social media is a marketing opportunity and disipline worthy of its own workbook. We won’t dive all the way, in but here are some things to consider.

Be active and maintain a consistent message which aligns with the principles of this workbook. This means you should have the same enthusiam, passion, and can-do attitude that you would have when talking with someone in person.

Remind your contacts in a tactful and thoughtful way that you love getting referrals.

Lead with the product (e.g., homes for sale and buyers who need homes) rather than your services.

Update your contact information and bio to remind people you love referrals, and make yourself easily available.

Social proof is a great way to show referrals what you can do for them. Ask past clients to write reviews on your Facebook page, Yelp, Google reviews, and any other site you’re listed on that accepts reviews.

Try posting this status update: “Anyone know of a good landscaper (or attorney, accountant, etc.)?” You’ll see the people who are passionate about referring come out of the woodwork. You can use this trick in person or over the phone, but going online gives you a larger sample. Now you can work on getting these people to be evangelists for you.

How will you use social media to get referrals?

Referrals

Try changing your Facebook cover photo!

A quick and easy way to show your sphere you love getting referrals is by updating your Facebook cover photo with a graphic that communicates that message.

Page 394 of 430

STEP 6

Run with a wolf pack.

Establish a small group of professional contacts in industries that tie back to real estate, such as divorce attorneys, contractors, accountants, mortgage brokers, and bankers.

Once you’ve assembled your Wolf Pack, let them know that you’re looking for referrals, and that in turn, they can expect you to refer your clients to them. Make sure these professionals know that they’re the only people in their respective fields that you will refer, and that you’ll actively seek out new business for them.

•Identify these people or companies.

•You need to know these individuals on a personal level by spending time with them over lunch, coffee, or evening drinks.

•Let them know you are willing to really work hard to refer them.

•Ask them if they would be willing to do the same.

•Get to know their services well so that you’ll have a good understanding when you’re referring clients.

The people or companies I want in my Wolf Pack:

Page 395 of 430

STEP 7

Pay it forward.

When you receive a referral, do something thoughtful and genuine for the person it came from. This does not necessarily mean you have to spend a lot of money. Try a hand-written thank you card, a quick stop by their work or home, flowers, candy, a ballon animal. It can be anything as long as you put thought into it. Those bird dogs we talked about earlier want to be recognized, and if you can do it publicly that’s even better.

Follow up with the people who often send you referrals. Let them know how things are going with the client they’ve sent. If it didn’t work out, be honest and let them know why. Don’t leave them wondering what happened.

Finally, take care of your clients, or you can assume it will be your last referral!

Think outside of the box!

What ways can you pay it forward?

8.1. What is Sponsoring?

Sponsoring is an assistance program to EXIT Franchises regarding the recruiting process of Real Estate Sales Representatives that is remunerated residually via EXIT Realty Corp. International. The Broker of the Real Estate office does the actual hiring while any EXIT associate throughout the entire EXIT System can assist in the process and derive a perpetual financial benefit given certain conditions.

The following is a list of guidelines regarding sponsoring which has been created to eliminate any misunderstanding in the process.

The Sponsoring Process:

Sponsoring involves explaining the Formula to the prospective new EXIT associate with the prime objective of getting an appointment for the new associate so that the broker can make an effective presentation.

It is important that once this appointment is made with an EXIT office that it is backed up with written confirmation for verification especially if the brokerage is in a different state or province.

Sponsoring involves earing the right to be paid for the privilege of receiving a perpetual payment for as long as these new associates stay with the company and generate business.

Sponsoring is not finding a business card in the street, with encouragement to management to call that person. Sponsoring is not merely contacting someone and directing them to an EXIT office for further information. Sponsoring is not just sending someone to an EXIT presentation.

Many people from EXIT could have conversations with a prospective associate, but ultimately the most persuasive wins out. The prospective associate knows who in fact did the best job in getting them excited enough to want to interview to join EXIT and this is totally pertinent to the allocation of the sponsoring bonus.

“Real estate salespeople are the building blocks of this corporation. They are EXIT’s assets. With sponsoring you can help to build what can become the largest and most productively successful real estate company in the world. Your piece of this action is your sponsoring bonus, which is paid out perpetually for as long as the associates you sponsored stay with the company and generate business. This is our corporate thank you for performing a very valuable service for EXIT. It is truly the most important job and the most well-rewarded job that you will ever accomplish.”

INSTRUCTIONS FOR AGENT SPONSORING

Any time you are introducing a new agent (or potential agent) into our brokerage, you will need to create a New “Sponsoring” loop.

Please title the loop “New Agent – insert their name here”

In doing so, you will be provided with the following documents which need to be filled out by the new or potential agent:

These forms are vital to you securing your sponsorship of the agent.

You will then need to set up an interview with the broker(s) of the office they will be joining

Sponsoring Do’s and Don’ts

WHAT IS SPONSORING

Sponsoring is an assistance program to management regarding the recruiting process of Real Estate Sales People that is remunerated residually via EXIT Realty Corp. International. The Broker of a Real Estate office does the actual hiring while any EXIT associate throughout the entire EXIT System can assist in this process and derive a perpetual financial benefit given certain conditions.

The following is a list of guidelines regarding sponsoring which has been created to eliminate any misunderstanding regarding this process.

1. Sponsoring is:

a) Sponsoring involves bringing the prospective member to the table

b) Sponsoring involves talking about EXIT to outside real estate sales people and Brokers in a manner whereby the company and its unique Formula are made irresistible.

c) Sponsoring involves thinking, saying and doing all these things whereby the prospective member wants to speak with management to get more.

d) Sponsoring involves explaining the Formula, and providing print and digital material, with the objective of getting an appointment booked with management for recruitment.

e) Sponsoring involves relationship building whereby there is no question in the mind of the prospective member that you are most definitely the reason why they got so excited.

f) Sponsoring involves taking the time to attend the recruiting presentation with both management and the prospective member to guarantee that everything goes smoothly.

g) Sponsoring involves making the appointment with management (even if it’s out of State or Province) for this presentation whereby this appointment is backed up with email confirmation for verification.

h) Sponsoring involves being a “Mother Hen” with the prospective member in a tactful and diplomatic way so that an effective nurturing process occurs which enhances the desired result of achieving the license transfer of the prospective member to EXIT.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 415 of 430

i) Sponsoring involves earning the right to be paid for the privilege of receiving a perpetual payment for as long as these new members stay with the company and generate business.

Sponsoring is not a quick kill process for a freebie. Sponsoring is hard work and that’s why we pay such a large bonus for your efforts.

2. Sponsoring is NOT:

a) Sponsoring is not simply introducing someone for the first time into the EXIT System.

b) Sponsoring is not finding a business card in the street, with encouragement to management to call that person.

c) Sponsoring is not just sending someone to a “What is EXIT” presentation.

d) Always Remember: The member determines who in fact sponsored them into EXIT and this must be verified by completing and confirming the information provided on the online Associate Profile.

WHAT IS THE MANAGER’S JOB REGARDING SPONSORING?

1. The Broker / Manager at EXIT should be totally open to interviewing prospective members at EXIT, no matter where they originate.

2. This does not mean that the Broker is obligated to hire anyone, however, the Broker must use good business judgment and retains the final word in this regard.

3. A Broker may have to work very hard to finally persuade an individual to join the office but keep in mind that this is his or her job. Recruiting is part of what they do for a living. Sponsoring is an initiation process while recruiting is a finalization process.

4. No matter how hard or how long the process of recruitment, the Broker / Manager has no right to claim a portion of the sponsoring bonus as compensation. If in fact the member has acknowledged in writing that another EXIT Associate was responsible regarding the sponsoring process then that settles the matter. Coercion in this regard will not be tolerated.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 416 of 430

5. The Franchise with whom the member is registered should be named the sponsor if no sponsor has been provided and acknowledged by the member.

6. The Broker / Manager must ask the member (as verification) who, in fact, if anybody sponsored them into EXIT Nothing is taken for granted here. The Sponsor might be sitting right beside them at the time but this does not take away the necessity of verification. This acknowledgement must be put in writing whereby all three parties get a copy. This can be done by scanned copy if the Sponsor is out of town.

7. Many people from EXIT could have conversations with prospective members, buy them dinner, take them to a “What is EXIT” presentation, provide digital or print materials, etc., but ultimately the most persuasive wins out. The prospective member knows who in fact did the best job and this is totally pertinent to the allocation of the sponsoring bonus. This could become challenging from time to time but then again, what is there in real estate that is not challenging?

8. Good recruiting is a sophisticated process and it requires finesse, expertise, persuasiveness and persistence. It’s hunting at its finest. Deliberate strategy in the hunt is an asset.

9. Historically, members who have witnessed arguments or disagreements regarding who sponsored them in, typically quit. Creating a disturbance in this manner and causing this result is immature. If a problem occurs then arbitration procedures could be induced by the Region if absolutely necessary. Every effort, however, should be made to retain the dignity of all parties concerned at all times under the circumstances.

10. It is expected that there is honesty and integrity employed in this process. Attempting to get something for nothing is not justified. Stretching the truth about what really occurred hurts everyone and it jeopardizes EXIT.

11. Sponsoring and recruiting are not easy. They are two of the most difficult jobs in the business. Therefore, we pay a large bonus to do it. Good salespeople stay in this industry ten, twenty and sometimes thirty years. You can bonus up to $200,000 over twenty years with just one member sponsored into EXIT. This should make you hungry to help build EXIT. Ultimately it’s worth the work and effort of learning how to persuade others to join us. Don’t jeopardize EXIT – reinforce it! You can create a financial destiny with this idea. You will probably accomplish little more than paying your bills by simply selling real estate. But with residuals you can create a future.

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 417 of 430

If you see the difference and realize the value, then you will respect the Formula and defend the system. This is too much of a good thing to allow it to fall prey to violators. Real estate salespeople are the building blocks of this corporation. They are EXIT’s assets. With sponsoring you can help to build what can become the largest and most productively successful real estate company in the world. Your “piece of the action” is your sponsoring bonus, which is paid out perpetually for as long as the members you sponsored stay with the company and generate business. This is our corporate thank you for performing a very valuable service for EXIT. It is truly the most important job and the most well rewarded job that you will ever accomplish.

"Make it your business to sponsor. Learn how to do this skillfully, enthusiastically and energetically. Get passionate about this process. Recruiting is a specialty of mine and I want it to rub off on you. When it does, this industry belongs to EXIT and the future belongs to you."

EXIT SUCCESS CARD FAQs

Q: What is the EXIT Success Card?

A: The EXIT Success Card is the vehicle through which EXIT Realty Corp. International remits sponsoring bonuses to its U.S. associates through the electronic transfer of funds to the individual’s EXIT Success Card account. This eliminates delays encountered by the postal service. The EXIT Success Card is a debit card with VISA®/MasterCard® capabilities. This means that the user will have the ability to use the card wherever VISA®/MasterCard® is accepted to the maximum of the dollar amount that has been loaded onto the card. It is not a credit card. The prepaid cards are issued by Bank of America.

Q: Who is eligible to receive an EXIT Success Card?

A: All active, part-time, and retired associates with a valid roster code with a franchise or region who have sponsored associates into EXIT will receive an EXIT Success Card after sponsoring their first recruit. Beneficiary bonuses will continue to be paid by check. When the associate sponsors their first recruit, a file is sent to the card service provider who will send out the card and cardholder information to the associate’s home address along with instructions for activation. If you haven’t received your EXIT Success Card and you have recruits, you should contact exitsuccesscard@exitrealty.com

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 419 of 430

Q: Where can the EXIT Success Card be used?

A: The EXIT Success Card can be used anywhere that a debit card or VISA®/MasterCard® is accepted: shop by phone, mail or in store, shop online, make hotel reservations, book airline tickets, buy meals, tickets, gas, get cash from an ATM. There is no fee to use the card at point of sale terminals and there is no fee to select the cash-back feature at one of those terminals in order to withdraw funds without incurring ATM charges. It can also be used for teller withdrawals. Check the fee schedule FAQ for fee details. The EXIT Success Card may also be used to book future EXIT Convention registrations. *User Tip – Gas Stations: If you use the EXIT Success Card to pay at the pump, selecting “Fill” will mean a $100 hold is placed on your account whether you purchase that much gas or not. This hold may take up to 4 days to clear.

Q: Why can’t you just deposit my sponsoring bonuses directly to my account?

A: We have chosen this method using the EXIT Success Card because it is easily manageable given the complex U.S. banking system. The accounts are transmitted directly to us electronically which eliminates any possibility of user error by inputting the bank information for all of our associates.

Q: What happens to my EXIT Success Card if my bonuses are paid to a corporate entity?

A: At this time, bonuses that are redirected to a corporate entity will continue to be paid by check with the exception of the EXIT franchise office. The funds payable to an EXIT franchise office will be paid by electronic transfer to the franchise office’s operating account.

Q: How are funds uploaded to the EXIT Success Card account?

A: When the franchise office finalizes a transaction in EXIT’s proprietary production software known as MEMO, they will send a command to remit the Company Development Fee electronically from the commission account to EXIT Realty Corp. International. At the same time, this transaction is recorded as closed and will show up in the associate’s view of MEMO known as ‘My Reports’ in the RC. At the time the funds are received by EXIT Realty Corp. International, they are processed and the appropriate sponsor will be paid via an ACH (automated clearing house) transfer which is uploaded to the associate’s EXIT Success Card account.

Q: When will I know the funds are available?

A: Associates will be notified by email when funds are in the process of being loaded to the account.

Therefore, no credit inquiry has been pulled for any associate and the issuance of this card will not affect any credit scores. Your confidential information is in the hands of Bank of America only and it will be not be shared with any other entity. Bank of America does conduct an identity validation with creditreporting bureaus and you may receive an alert to this affect

EXIT Prestige Luxury Realty Agent On-Boarding – Trained for Success Page 420 of 430

Q: Is using the EXIT Success Card mandatory?

A: Eventually, all Company Development Fee remittances must be electronic in order to manage EXIT’s ongoing growth efficiently. The EXIT Success Card is the most effective method we have found to handle the payout of sponsoring bonuses.

Q: Can I use this card as a savings tool?

A: You can use the card as a means to save money however keep in mind that you will not earn any interest on the funds. Furthermore, if there is no activity on the card for 365 days by the associate, the card will be considered ‘dormant’ by Bank of America which means the card will be closed and you will be issued a check for the balance on your card.

Please be advised that the highest balance that can be held on this card is $24,999 and that there will be some limitations on teller withdrawals.

8.2. Marketing Sponsoring Resources

There are three different Sponsoring Packages you can create to support your sponsoring efforts. Each has its own benefits.

Resource Center Sponsoring Package

This package is designed to be compiled by you. Each piece has been professionally designed and together they cover the 5 Pillars of EXIT. There is also a cover sheet, shown here. These pieces are non-customizable and so your contact information will not appear on these pieces. It’s important that your package contains a piece that you create, containing your contact information. If you print these packages yourself, your cost can be economical. Compiling them in a presentation folder will make the best impression. Click here to access the suggested Sponsoring Package content.

EXIT Promo Shop Sponsoring Package

All EXITized pieces in EXIT Promo Shop – accessible through the EXITize Me section of the Resource Center (RC) – are personalized with the photo and contact information you entered into the My Profile Section of the RC. You can be sure that every piece will identify you as the contact person. There is no formal cover sheet in EXIT Promo Shop, it is content only. You could use the cover sheet from the RC, or you could create your own. EXIT Promo Shop is an annual subscription product at a cost of $24.95 US per month.

UPS Print Portal Sponsoring Package

Once you are familiar with EXIT’s 5 Pillars – EXIT Training, Branding, Technology, Culture, Financial Security – it’s time to draft your elevator speech. It is important that you really know, rather than just memorize, what you’re trying to convey. Here is an Elevator Speech template you can start with:

My company exists to build strong real estate agents and offices, and to help make them successful. Why? Because, we have noticed that most companies focus on the numbers and not the individual. We believe that working first to strengthen each agent makes the team more productive and successful. We don’t believe MORE is better, we believe BETTER is better. We do this in five simple ways:

1. We provide the tools for each agent, rookie or veteran, to become thoroughly trained in successful real estate sales.

2. We help each agent brand themselves then show them how to market their brand to the community to get more leads.

3. We seek out the latest technology tools available in real estate then teach each how to use them.

4. We have built a team that is supportive and fun. We enjoy and encourage each other much like a good family would do.
