Ok real fast:
Auto dialers are for losers.
Leads are for losers.
Goodnight.
Guys....seriously , stop using these tactics!!!
I used to be a LEAD JUNKIE!! It occupies your entire day and used to be somewhat fruitfull. Right now the only loser clients applying online cant FREAKING qualify for layaway at the Burlington Coat Factory!
You need to NETWORK. Start building great relations with...EVERYONE.
List: Realtors, CPA's, Business owners, Hair stylists, lawyers, ice cream men, men, women, ...you get the point.
Act like the freaking owner of Goldman Sacs for god sakes. Tell them you are blowing up!
BE THE EXPERT in this time of need and crisis. Be the guy with answers.
You have to get out of the freaking house and NETWORK. Go get a drink, a haircut, a showshine, a car wash, a lap dance, a new suit...just get out.
I keep seeing these loser posts about leads, WORTHLESS! Dont waste your money. If you know mortgages like the back of your hand you can earn peoples trust and business all day long right now, but you have to inspire people with your confidence and knowledge.
This is the time to get out and pick up 10 SOLID realtors and referral partners to send you business, which never stops. Leads are a dime a dozen and one night stand.
This is the time to actally develope referral partners and an actual BUSINESS! Stop treating it like a telemarketing job. Dress up every day, and by that I dont mean a polo and jeans.
Lets create a better image for ourselves in 2008. The more people buying triggers, dialers, crappy pop up ad leads, win an IPOD leads makes us look like shoe salesmen.
Give up "Leads" And start growing a business that retains itself and keeps on giving.
Calling leads never ends, endless cycle of trying to churn and burn. Develope solid contacts and referral apartners and you are set for years.
Thats it, I'm done.

| Referrals aren't the only way to get business. If you prefer it fine, but to say telemarking or internet leads don't work is just wrong. |

I said, they DID work. Now its time to shape up our image.
I have done both. The second I took the advice I just ranted about(former boss forced me to by cutting off leads) I skyrocketed my business. With this market you have to make changes and go at it. As soon as people stop getting 15 cold calls a day is the second we can demand the money and respect we deserve. Instead of nickel and dime barganing we do now .

I agree. We all have it easy though. We have the luxury of telling a Realtor to F off if we want to.
Ever worked in the corporate world? What about that crazy nut job always yelling at you or looking over your shoulder?
Just take the realtors in stride like you would in a big corp. job.....we can handle it.
