3 Things Every New Agent Should Do

So you got your Real Estate License – Now what?

 Pick Out Your Office

~In order to start marketing yourself you have to be under a broker and all marketing material including business cards must show your company.

~The Division of Real Estate, Salt Lake Board of Realtors, and the WFRMLS are all going to require you to hang your hat somewhere to be active.

Set Up Your Database/SOI/CRM(Client Retention Management)

~The majority of your clients will come from this arena.  Your broker may offer their system, but I would recommend that you get set up independently.

~I use Realty Juggler because it is inexpensive, comes with a 3 month free trial (which most new agents appreciate),and it has all the bells and whistles needed.

~This link will give you the 3 months and then if you purchase you will get 2 more free- http://www.realtyjuggler.com/?Source=janice%40upperroomrealestate.com

Get A Mentor

~ I believe that every broker has the task of helping their new agents become successful.  I am also a firm believer that this should not cost you extra money.  There are so many proven systems in place to help you be successful-take advantage of that knowledge!  Many of the agents that I have trained have gone on to have their own successful brokerages. Now that is success.

~The most important aspect about your mentor/coach is availability.  When I was new, I would have to call my broker at least 10 times while writing up a contract.  There are strategies to negotiating and because every deal is different you want to have a broker that will hold your hand through the process so that you learn not only the hows, but the whys.  Even though I have been doing real estate for over 20 years, I still have mentors.  Plus who else wants to talk real estate 24/7.
