It’s My Party And I’ll Cry If I Want To!

It can be hard to remember everything that needs to be accomplished when you’re planning a social gathering.  Parties need pizzazz, they need imagination; the ideas rush to your mind!  As the day grows closer reality sets in; you need more than imagination, you need paper plates, cups, napkins - you need to send out the invitations!

Invitations…the key to any successful party.  You are excited to announce your gathering so you get started on those invites.  You know everyone will come; after all, you have pizzazz!  You’re quite busy, so you get to your address book, address the invitations, and get them in the mail. 

The day arrives; you have paper plates, cups, napkins, decorations.  Everything is in order.  You have a sneaking suspicion you forgot something but you’re sure it will all work out.  You’ve worked so hard, it has to go well.  And then, the worst happens: no one shows up to your party.

You retrace your steps…what could have gone wrong?  And then it hits you…did you ever fill in the important information on the invitation?  The date, time, location…none of it was on there!

As a busy Real Estate Professional it is hard to remember to dot all of your “i’s” and cross all of your “t’s”.  Certain details can go unchecked, but we hope the important ones are all in order.  You may have plenty of “pizzazz”, but if no one knows how to contact you, you will miss out on the business that would otherwise be coming your way.

Email is often where this communication breakdown occurs.  In all the rush of the day, you may send out an email with valuable information such as a CMA, or details for a property.  But at the bottom you forget to identify yourself; to give that prospect a quick way of reaching you.  If that person doesn’t recognize your email address, they may just delete your email.  They also may move on to another agent because their email came with a phone number, a link to their website, etc.  Losing a prospect can happen that fast.

When you don't include your information at the end of every email, you are forcing your prospective client to work harder to contact you.  They might have to search their sent items to find your address, go through folders of your emails to locate that phone number, or email you again to ask for that information.  Make it EASY for them to find and contact you.

Don’t miss out on the party; include the important information!  Here is a sample email signature to get you started:

Read the following from real estate professionals who are using Advanced Access' Marketing Tips to their advantage:

Carol Wilson says:
"Kyle, today, as always, you helped me put exactly what I wanted on my website. My very first call to tech support, you walked me through a whole lot of things. And I was lucky to get you a few other times; and always I got exactly what I wanted. A 5 rating is too low; you are definitely a 10. I am completely computer dangerous, and I appreciate your patience and your help. Many thanks. Carol Wilson"

Kathy Migdal says:
"I have always been impressed by the customer service at Advanced Access. I'm very happy that customer service is helpful and polite. I have spent much time and money on my website and it's important to me for my real estate business. Thank all of you in the Customer Service Department!"

Marilyn Farber Jacobs says:
"KYLE IS TERRIFIC! I've talked to many of your agents, but he is the most knowledgeable one. He was patient, gave me clear explanations that I could understand, and you have a GEM in him.
