Networking & Referrals

I LOVE WCR!!!!!! I have been a part of many organizations and I find the energy and support I find at WCR Meetings is second to none! I just returned from The Mega Networking Summit in St. Charles Missouri. There were hundreds of real estate professionals all intentional on growing themselves and, in the process, their businesses. Thank you, WCR, for the opportunity to meet and learn from other members. So far today, I have accepted 4 LinkedIn requests. This tells me people were listening when my friend and tech trainer extraordinaire Amy Chorew told them they needed to participate in Web 2.0! Are you on board yet? Go to www.LinkedIn.com and get started or join Ac tiveRain or RealTown and start networking.

Many of the speakers (including myself) urged everyone to deepen their networks and systems. We all know it costs 5x more to generate a new client than to get business from an existing client. I did a breakout on Making The Pie Bigger. The notes from that are posted here.

To be successful in 2008, you need to use some more strategies to bring value, service and education to your clients. If you took out to lunch 1 person per week and talked to them about all the ways they could benefit from real estate:

Do you think you'd end up with an additional transaction? I bet this strategy could add 6 more transactions to your production. All for the cost of a lunch (and maybe some additional education for you)!!!

As a side note...if you are interested in knowing more about Web 2.0, my Fossland's Forum this month was on that topic and can be downloaded here.

AND>>>>>>If you haven't already........ do yourself a favor, make plans right now to go to the Influential Women Summit in Boston this summer. You and your business will be glad!

On The Personal Side

How are YOU doing???? Are you paddling as fast as you can upstream to try to make things happen? I have been working on using The Law of Attraction. The concept of going WITH the flow instead of fighting it is very compelling for me. I love being able to relax and trust that I am doing what I need to do to have all the things I want. And I can't tell you how much fun it is to see things show up in ways I'd have never imagined and maybe, even have missed, if I hadn't stop trying so hard.

One of the important components in The Law of Attraction is being attractive. And, yes, while being pretty is good, that's not what I am talking about. What I mean is getting the stuff OUT OF THE WAY that drains my energy and keeps me in a state that attracts little or nothing that I truly want. Clearing the stuckness.....

COACH'S TIP>>>>> This week, spend some time every day being selfish. Not the bad selfish that hurts others, but selfish that nurtures you. Spend some time doing those things you LOVE to do. Spend time with those you love and who make you feel great.
And then on the other side of this:

Others won't give us the respect we want and deserve if we don't give it to ourselves. Take an honest look at how you are treating yourself and, if need be, make some changes. Be very, very selfish this week and watch what happens!
