5 Habits That Make You a Less
Productive REALTOR
www.ixactcontact.com
2
Habit 1: Beginning your day in a frenzy.
 Do you rush around the house, down a cup
of coffee, and barely leave time to brush your
teeth?
 Lots of us are in the habit of hitting the
snooze button a few too many times and
rushing through the house in semi-panicked
chaos.
 This hectic morning habit takes a toll on your
well-being and productivity for the day.

Problem
3
Habit 1: Beginning your day in a frenzy.
 Set your alarm 10-30 minutes earlier to break the
manic morning habit.
 Take some time to breathe before you start your day.
 Choose your outfit and prepare your lunch the night
before to relieve your morning stress. You’ll begin
your day feeling calmer, more centered, and more
industrious.

Habit 2: Working Without Structure
 It’s harder to focus on a task without a defined list in place to structure
your work day or week.
 You tend to focus on whichever project is easiest or most urgent
without mapping out other important items that also need to be
completed.
Problem

5
Habit 2: Working Without Structure
 Structure your day with a “to-do” list and
review it each morning
 Focus on the items on your list and tackle
something challenging first thing in the
morning.
Solution: use a “to-do” list
www.ixactcontact.com
A good real estate CRM will come
equipped with a task list. It will even
send you reminders of when it’s time to
check off an item!
6
Habit 3: Overdoing the Multitasking
 Research at the University of Michigan
showed that a 3 second distraction can lead
to double the mistakes in your work.
 Working on two tasks at the same time can
result in poor cognitive performance on both
tasks
 For a real estate agent who is working with
sensitive timelines, financial documents, and
tight schedules, you want to avoid as many
errors as possible

Problem
7
Habit 3: Overdoing the Multitasking
 Resist the urge to work on multiple
tasks at the same time and try
“singletasking” one important thing
before moving on to the next. Your
work will be more accurate and your
productivity will increase!
www.ixactcontact.com
Solution: “Singletasking”
8
Habit 4: Postponing dealing with something.
 Do you skim email and think “I’ll deal with that
later”? Suddenly, it’s weeks later and you still
haven’t responded to it?
 Postponing tasks is a time vacuum that many
of us fall in to.

Problem
9
Habit 4: Postponing dealing with something.
 When you deal with an item only once, it frees up your mind to move on to
more pressing issues, and increases your potential to be productive.
www.ixactcontact.com
Solution: deal with items only once
10
Habit 5. Manually carrying out tasks.
 Do you spend time frantically trying to find a
past client’s phone number, or attempting to
respond to web leads via email?
 Tasks like these are unavoidable, but they
don’t have to dominate your entire day!
www.ixactcontact.com
Problem
11
Solution: Choose a Real Estate CRM
 Take advantage of the automated features to
free up your time
 A good CRM can send follow-up emails to
leads and assign them to a drip email nurture
campaign, so your new leads are receiving
communications from you without you having
to type them out
 Automated task reminders will ensure you’re
not forgetting any important to-do’s

12
Takeaways
 Feeling productive can alleviate stress and
improve your overall well-being.
 Structure your day more efficiently with a task list,
focus on a single task at a time, and deal with
tasks just one time.
 Perhaps most importantly, find the right real estate
CRM that can help you get better organized and
automate many of your important tasks.
