Rich Real Estate Agent, Poor Real Estate Agent
I read a great article in ActiveRain recently, entitled “Rich Real Estate Agent, Poor Real Estate Agent.” The information in the article is so powerful that I felt the need to share it with all of you – our loyal blog readers. The data in the article is a result of a survey of 1,758 real estate sales professionals that ActiveRain polled. 22% of the agents who took part in the survey were classified as “rich” REALTORS® (a yearly salary of over 100K a year) and 21% were classified as “poor” REALTORS® (a yearly salary of under 35K). You’ll read that a real estate CRM software was found to be key to the success of the top performing agents. Email marketing also played an integral part to their success.
Using Your Real Estate CRM to Get Referrals
This is a great video by Real Estate Coach and Trainer, Joe Stumpf.
Take a look at this video and the advice Joe is giving and think about the role that your real estate CRM plays. Your real estate contact management system is key in helping you generate a steady stream of referrals over time.
Joe emphasizes that what you do after the transaction will determine how much value you’re getting from each relationship you have. A real estate CRM system is what’s going to assist you in nurturing your relationships once the transaction is complete, which in the long-term will lead to more referrals and repeat business.

Product Update: Save Time With Drip Marketing!
Email Activity Plans are a great way to pre-schedule a series of email communications. But until now those emails still had to be sent manually.
