I've been going into LinkedIn more lately and find there are Agents there posting... almost Facebook-Like.

Here's your 28-minute action today.

1. Go to LinkedIn and check your profile. Update if necessary so it's correct and your photo represents you as you are now! (or if you have a photo)

Also, update or include a banner picture on your LinkedIn account. This is a great way to show off your business and your contact information.

2. Post a short note or article. Doesn't need to be long to be effective! And if you post blogs or share articles on your Facebook Business page, you can post on Linked-In, too. Be sure to engage with those commenting on your posts!!

See what happens!

Today's 28-minute Lead Generation idea is to look at your favorite Social Media page... and "like" and/or "comment" on as many posts as you can find that COULD lead to a Lead.

Here are a few ideas:

Find posts about graduation - there are many coming up! Graduates mean someone may be moving in or out of someone else's home. You don't need to talk about that.... you just need to open a door to talk about it later. NOTICE the graduates and comment. THEN follow up with that person. Put them in your Database and create a next contact to ask the question in a few days or a week.

Find posts about Weddings coming up - it 'tis the season! Same guidelines as above.

Find posts about vacations. On them or one planned or just gotten back from. MANY people love a vacation spot and...

Today's 28-minute Lead Generation idea:

Send as many personal texts in 28 minutes that you can fit in. That's it. YOU MAY BE THE COACH they are being a demand for right now! All you have to is "show up."

Who to text and what?

• A vendor who did a good job.
• People who came to your open house recently.
• Any hot lead you have with SOME bit of information.
• The tech at the salon who mentioned they might be thinking of buying a home.
• The FSBO who was nice.
• The Expired who seemed frustrated.

The list is endless. Be interested in THEM. Be grateful. How can you help? --- If you send out a text that's particularly effective – send us the wording to post...

The single best source of business for a real estate agent is their current and past clients! Often, we don't ask for business because we don't know how to ask graciously.

Try these conversation starters today with 5 of your current/past clients from Coach Mike:

“By the way, the majority of my business comes by word-of-mouth from my great past clients. It’s how I prefer to run my business – working with people who know me already, or friends of those people. So, if you know anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home this year, would you mind introducing them to me?”

You have set and reached many goals in your life or your business, but how many of them you are truly excited about? Do you sometimes wonder, after you have achieved them, so what? You don’t feel that exhilarating excitement even though you feel the satisfaction of arriving at the next milestone.

What makes a goal truly exciting?

A truly exciting goal is one that transforms you or your business.

It’s not just one of the many milestones (yes, they are important too!), but one that when you look back, you can clearly say that’s a tipping point.

When you achieve a truly exciting goal, you marvel at your own power and are inspired to imagine even bigger and bolder dreams.

When you look back on a truly exciting goal, you'll find that it always marks the beginning of a new path in your life or business.

So what does an exciting goal look like when you are just starting out?

It simply looks impossible!

You think it’s a fantasy. You honestly don’t...

Today's 28-minute Lead Generation idea is below and here's a BONUS: Put in your calendar time to do your 28-minute Lead Gen EVERY WORK DAY for the rest of the year.

Today's Action is to Go to your Favorite Social Media page (FB, LI, Twitter, Instagram, WW Connect, etc. :) and interact with Posts ALREADY THERE, in such a way that the person on the other end knows you are in real estate.

Examples:

Jen, your picture of your new plants looks AWESOME! I think I saw that pink flowered one the other day at a house I was showing... do you know the name of the plant? Does it flower all year?

Jim, I see you just took a new job at XYZ. Congratulations! How is the new commute? I saw some cool listings a few minutes from that company and wondered if you may want to move closer. PM me or give me a call.

What time will you do it?
