Ramp Up Your Social Media Efforts: You don’t have to sit around waiting for your license. People want to see the story unfold. tel them about the process of getting your license. This way you don’t start at ground zero and have to wait for your marketing to catch on. Your friends and family want to hear about the process more than they want to see your ads.
Become an Expert in Your Market: Tour homes on your own before you have clients. Share the listings on social media and review the property. Do not represent the listings in a way that would lead to believe that the listing is yours. Create a niche that you can focus on. Be the local expert, try starting as a buyers agent, and prepare press releases that state you are the local expert.
Business Tools: Business cards, door knockers, brochures, drop them off everywhere. VistaPrint
