How's Your 2011 So Far?

As we've completed one month into 2o11, I hope you've been busy building your business for the new year.
I've been working hard on re-designing my business and it's still an ongoing process. I've been focused on 2 words for 2011:
Simplify & Templates
It's easy to get sucked into making real estate harder than it is. Everybody is trying to sell you the latest and greatest gadget, product or service that will make your business explode.
What you need to do is step back and look at what you're good at and what you want to achieve in your business.
A few strategies I've been working on is:
  • redesigning my listing presentation
  • redesigning my market analysis & pricing presentation
  • redesigning my pre-listing packet (in PDF format to be emailed)
  • redesigning my buyer's consultation presentation

By doing these things as well as other stuff, it's allowed me to focus more on serving my clients and gaining more client referrals, because I'm not always worried about preparing my presentations.

Simplifying your business will give you your sanity back. Yes, there are still times when we all rush around putting out a fire, but by having presentations completed ahead of time, it allows you to be more focused.

By also designing templates, it allows you to complete your tasks much more quickly and you won't get distracted wondering what do I need to do today. I'll talk more about this later.
