Weeks 1 & 2: Business Planning for the Professional Realtor®
This is a 4-part workshop. Enrolment in all sessions is recommended. Facilitator: Debra Harris, Director, Professional Development RLP RES Ltd.
March 19 - Production, Income, Expense Targets A primary goal of every business is to achieve a profitable bottom line. The first step to accomplishing this is projecting your NUMBERS - your revenue units, GCI, and expenses. This workshop takes the guesswork out of this foundational exercise. Completion of the pre-workshop assignment is highly recommended to enable a thoughtful and logical projection process. Pre work will be emailed to registrants 3 days prior to the workshop.
March 22 - Lead Generation Strategy In real estate, if you don't have leads, you don't have a business. Where will your leads come from in the year ahead? A lead generation strategy isolates WHO your prospects are and the type and volume of business they represent. This information enables you to prioritize daily and weekly activies as well as determine what business systems and marketing tools are required.
March 28 - Contact Management System Your lead generation strategy determined who your prospects are. A contact management system determines HOW you will nuture relationships to generate the continuous flow of Buyers and Sellers you need to reach your revenue targets. This session answers the WHEN and WHAT of your communication: what the frequency of contact should be and what methods and content are most effective.
