Top 8 Reasons Real Estate Agents Fail
Top 8 Reasons Real Estate Agents FailThere are more than 100,000 real estate agents in the United States who are millionaires! That sounds like an awful lot of top producers out there. So what is it that they are doing that you are not? As a matter of fact most real estate agents end up failing and changing jobs. It's sad to see because these people have worked probably just as hard as the millionaires, but they just couldn't survive.Here are the Top 8 Reasons Real Estate Agents Fail: They don't understand the hustle required to make their business successful. When you are an up and coming Agent, you need to hustle. You have to make one more call. You need to knock on one more door. You need to respond to each and every inquiry whether you believe they are looking to buy a $3,000,000 house or not. and do it faster than any other agent will. Hustle to be #1. Don't treat this job like a hobby. You need to go out and get the business.Not Enough Leads. If you are not getting enough l

However, I wanted to share some Friday Fun First!In 1988, right near me in Madison, Wisconsin, Chris Johnson and Tim Keck, the co-founders of The Onion, created a news satire publication. They report on international, national, and local news.WikipediaI love reading some of the things they publish or do videos about and today is an Onion kind of day. The name for the publication actually cam from Tim Keck's uncle who was eating an onion sandwich the day Tim came to visit! Just bread and onion. And their stories are very biting that same way. For example:Indianapolis, The OnionArea Man Accepts Burden Of Being Only Person On Earth Who Understands How World Actually WorksNone of the stories are real. They are satire and they are meant to be funny. Some are way funnier than others, but they usually have something to laugh at; a headline, photo or video. Just sometimes a fun plac

Blog Analytic ToolsYesterday we wrote about some of the tools you can use to measure traffic on your blog. Measuring this traffic is imperative to the success of your blog. If you are just writing post after post and you have no idea if "anyone" is reading it, you have been wasting time.What if you could tell: how many people have read your post how many have shared your post where visitors come from how many pages they read what topics interest them the most Wouldn't this information be helpful? You could start writing blogs about stuff that people actually want to read and post it at a time when the most people are looking online. That would be great information to have, hey?So yesterday I spoke about the ActiveRain stats feature, Google Analytics and Jetpack Plugin for Wordpress. Then I got tired!!!
