From Chaos to Control: Systemize Your Business to Boost Productivity
In your real estate practice, how effective are you? Do you feel like you are organized, using your time in the most efficient way, consistently growing, and increasing your income?
Or do you feel overwhelmed and like you’re leaving money on the table?
If it’s the latter, then you should think about what systems you have in place and how they can be improved. By taking the time to invest in assets and support, you’ll soon be on your way to increased productivity.
The Power of a CRM
A great Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system helps you run your business like a pro by keeping you on track, both production-wise and budget-wise.
Seek out one that sorts and qualifies your database and sets automatic reminders of when and how you should contact your best clients and hottest leads.
A CRM that generates reports so you can track your expenses and manage your transactions will help you manage your finances efficiently. And if you choose a CRM that automatically creates daily to-do lists and populates your calendar, you’ll find yourself with more time to do what matters — nurturing your client relationships.
A CRM that is part of an overall platform, such as Buffini & Company’s Referral Maker® PRO, which also creates marketing assets, will help free up your time. This program includes a full suite of professionally designed print and digital assets. Its newest feature includes free access to Referral Maker® Social Suite, powered by Back At You, which automatically creates and posts to social media for you.
Buffini client Farrah Spears noted, “Referral Maker PRO is literally a one-stop shop.”
“I don’t have to go into a bunch of websites…I’ve got my goals. I’ve got my contacts. I’ve got all the content that I need to be able to market and advertise, whether that’s emailing, or social media, or anything. It is mind-blowing to have one tool that you can go to and have everything you could possibly need to run your business,” she added.
Everyone Needs an Accountability Partner
Of course, it doesn’t matter how many great tools you have if you don’t use them. That’s why an accountability partner is a key part of any real estate agent’s success. That may be a trusted colleague, mentor, or coach.
An agent who is struggling to get their business started or finds themselves stalled may not feel they can afford the expense of working with a real estate coach. But for those who do, they say it is worth every cent.
“For me, Buffini coaching is like a path that, if you follow, if you do the activities that sometimes you don’t really want to do, the end result will be there,” Buffini client Cathy Lamon said. “It has proven to be a very valuable part of my life. I don’t know where I would be without it, honestly.”
Connie Curci agreed, noting that working with a Buffini coach “has really taught me to run my business like a business.”
“I don’t run around trying to get new clients. I run it like a business with systems and procedures… it flows, and there’s so much more consistency.
“And that really makes a difference. It really does change your life.”
