Short Sale Success, Do Something Out of the ordinary
July 26th, 2010
We are going to chat about mindset again today. We have noticed a trend on our favorite social media website, facebook. Coincidentally, facebook recently surpassed 500 million users. So, that is a magnificent lead generation method on mindset Monday. Simply ask the 23 clients that we got through facebook and closed on.
The theory that we would like to chat about is that we have noticed a lot of realtors on facebook that are complaining. We aren’t mad at them because several of them are our associates. Nonetheless, we see a lot of the status updates about which lender you loathe. Also, there are loads of status updates asking if anyone has a good contact at this specific lender or that specific lender. In light of these facebook postings, we would like to transport people back to the January 2nd installment.
The theory that was discussed on that installment was to do something distinctive. This is not an installment to get mad at realtors. The aim is to not get stuck in a rut doing the same thing all of the time and hoping for distinctive results. You will have to do something distinctive.
One of the things that we recommend to realtors is to chat to somebody distinctive at the lender. If you are wondering how to achieve that, try jigsaw.com. We get emails all day for contact information. It is important to note that we will never reply with contact information, but we will regularly reply with a recommendation to try jigsaw.com
Just one example of doing something distinctive, Fred couldn’t get a lender worker to stop talking today so he just started pushing buttons on the phone. It probably wasn’t the most adult thing to do. However, he was doing something distinctive. If what you have been doing is not getting you the results you desire, try something distinctive. The worst thing that can come about is you will still not get the results you desire.
