Having a niche is critical to cultivating recall. Think about it. A buyer goes through open house after open house, collecting cards, having brief conversations and at the end of the week, might remember one person and have a stack of business cards with no memory of the others. In fact buyers complain that so many agents share the same message and tout the same "refer me someone and I'll be your friend forever" message it's impossible to even remember the ones you actually like.
Without a niche you become a pebble on the beach of real estate agents. With it both your name and company rise to the top of your audience's mind. In this webinar we'll discuss ways to illuminate possibilities and create your niche. Will also talk about the positives when it comes to the social channels, web marketing and getting to word out. The object is to start conversations and bring traffic back to you while keeping your passion alive and continue to make your business one the most incredible experiences for you as an entrepreneur.
