If you’re still putting the finishing touches on your 2021 business goals, read on, for some great, actionable insight on how to make this year, your year for real estate domination.
If you don’t want to end up someplace else…
You need to know where you’re going, according to the late Yogi Berra. Unless, of course, you want to spend the entirety of this year, flailing about for leads, for prospects, for income.
Decide on a destination, a goal to shoot for by year’s end. Whether that’s a specific GCI or a certain number of closed deals, this goal should define how you run your business in 2021.
And, how about making a vow that the journey to that destination is one that you’ll enjoy?
“There is no one pathway to success. Set goals you enjoy traveling to not just goals that check out with your Broker, Team Lead, or Coach,” suggests David Serpa at labcoatagents.com.
Learn from the past
Dig out your business plan from 2020 and take some time to ask yourself some questions:
- Did you reach your goals?
- If not, why? Were they unrealistic, was it due to the pandemic? Get clear on the why.
- What is within your power to change so that you will hit your 2021 target?
Then, get clear on how many contacts you’ll need to make to get the leads and prospects required to hit your income goal. The Free One-Page, Interactive Business Plan, and Free online SOI calculator are both perfect tools to help you do this fast.
Dust off your real estate business marketing plan
Marketing your services in a way that will grab consumers’ attention is one of the most challenging aspects for many agents. With so many agents in a market, you may feel it’s almost impossible to stand out from the crowd.
The 2021 Real Estate Marketing Planner is not only Free-To-You but an incredible tool that will help you to plan your marketing for the entire year.
When the pandemic broke out, in-person marketing, such as holding events, door knocking, and the like, were put on hold. If these were among your chosen marketing methods, you may need to still “pivot” in 2021.
Direct mail marketing will always remain a highly effective vehicle for agents.
Direct mail marketing is also an affordable way to put something tangible into the hands of your potential clients.
For instance, on ProspectsPLUS.com you can schedule a monthly campaign, that includes 150 jumbo-sized postcards, mailed standard-class for only $121.00.
Consider the potential outcome of these 150 postcards, touching your specified market every month – it’s truly all upside.
Is this the year you’ll hire help?
Determining your goals for the new year and how you’ll reach them financially is the backbone of your business plan.
If your plan is aggressive, and it calls for making a massive move to the next level, you should probably consider hiring help of some kind. If you’re brave enough to take your business to the next level, you shouldn’t even wince at the thought of bringing someone on staff to help you.
Whether virtual or in-person, an assistant or transaction coordinator is a must, so tack on another transaction or two so you can pay him/her.
The time is now to let go of areas you fell short of your business goals in 2020, pivot, where necessary and move forward, armed with the tools and strategies needed to dominate in 2021.
