Here?s another great post from Active Rain.? It?s a short, well-written post talking about Chris Alston?s experience with an acquaintance asking him if he was ?still in real estate?.
Several things came to mind after reading the post.?? It?s probably not all that unusual for non-real estate folks to assume that there?s been some heavy fall out in the real estate industry based on recent events.? Actually, they?re right in assuming that.? You just don?t want to assume that about you.
This also brings up the importance of using closing gifts that last.? You need to make sure that your contact information is handy when a past client is thinking of buying or selling again.? Hopefully, they will ask you the ?are you still in real estate? question before they hire someone else.
The second thing that came to mind is the importance of keeping in touch with your entire sphere of influence.? You can?t be successful in real estate with a ?hit and run? mentality.? Staying in touch is critical.? And, you need to find the tools and put the processes in place to make sure you do stay connected.
And, that brought to mind the recent post on this blog about real estate contact managers and email marketing.
You can?t think it will never happen to you.? It probably will happen to you unless you take steps to avoid it!
