  2. What are the 2 biggest challenges that a REALTOR faces today with clients and customers? • I used to ask the REALTORs, “what are the biggest challenges that you face from …Sellers/Buyer? as a REALTOR?” They say: • “The Buyers/Sellers say that the REALTOR never stayed in contact/I never heard from them again, after they listed the property”. Later they say: • “You charge too much.” • These comments are proven by NAR to be true as to what the public believes about our profession via surveys that may be located on REALTOR.org.

  3. How to be the first agent that they reach! VOIP Barnett www.online2k.net 954-287-1000

  5. Before You Go on Your Next Listing Appointment: • Ask the Seller to “Please, describe 3 things that they liked about the house when they bought it?” • “What are the 3 things that they may have done to improve the property?” • What 3 things do you like least about the property? • Print the tax rolls and Create the CMA, archive pages and backup documentation. • Call On2k to setup a new phone number for this listing and then set your preferred IVR options. (We’ll discuss how to do this in a couple of minutes.) • 6. Set the appointment to present the Marketing Plan and CMA. 8.5 million or 85K Use your website with a link to a contact web page. On the On2k page you may use a voice recording to describe the property or anything else. Barnett www.online2k.net 954-287-1000

  6. Listing Appointment • Present the Marketing Plan, Your Marketing timing calendar, Your references, Company information and the CMA with the backup documentation that you might need to get the property priced right. • When you present the Marketing plan,explain how easily a prospective Buyer will be able to reach you. You are more available. • Demonstrate by giving them a phone number to call from their home phone. • You have already set up a phone number for this listing to bring you more buyers and help sell the property faster. • By the way, you might want to change the “name” of the account to the address, so that you may login as the address. • It adds a little flash, a little bling, bling to catch the Seller’s eye. Just like using their name several times gets their attention so will a familiar address. Barnett www.online2k.net 954-287-1000

  9. Marketing Timing WindowPrice it right to get the best exposure. Skip this and look at the graphic! The marketing window is so important because of the technology that exists today. As soon as a listing comes on the market a matching process begins inside the MLS. REALTORS™ run daily hot sheets and “find” the new listing. After a REALTOR™ has shown a Buyer the first time they will add them to the database with search criteria. The MLS system will automatically match new listings to buyers that have had their search criteria entered on the system. Then the “new” listing is automatically e-mailed to the buyer and the buyer agents. This is why the price needs to be absolutely right the first time and the multiple photos or virtual tour must appear as quickly as possible. Some Sellers think, “Oh let’s try a little bit higher price, we can always lower it.” The system isn’t setup to encourage that program. If your price isn’t right the first time it will miss those Buyers that are ready to buy, NOW. Resulting in a delay that might not be optimal for your move. We like to do it right the first time and get you the best price that is available from the market today. Perhaps this small graph will help you understand why some property has been on the market for so long. Together we will make a plan that suits your goals and properly moves your property. Just look at weeks 1-5! Barnett www.online2k.net 954-287-1000

  10. Pricing Triangle Positioning Your Home In The Marketplace The pricing triangle represents all of the potential buyers in the market for a given home. The higher your asking price is on the triangle, the lower the percentage of buyers who will be interested in purchasing it. As the asking price increases toward the peak of the triangle, the number of potential buyers who are willing to pay a premium price for the home declines, until the price is so high that no prospects are attracted at all. As the asking price declines toward the base of the triangle, the home is perceived to be a "bargain" and the number of potential buyers increases. Ideally, you should price your home in the range of actual fair market value. Your sales associate can help you determine this range with a Comparative Market Analysis. Setting a fair asking price helps you obtain the maximum selling price for your home. Priced Right! Barnett www.online2k.net 954-287-1000

  11. References Here is a list of all of your past clients. Their photos and perhaps their comments on a website, so that a prospective client be it Buyer or Seller may actually hear their comments about you! A verbal resume if you will! Barnett www.online2k.net 954-287-1000

Press 3” “Do you want to speak with the REALTOR now? press 4” (You could set this up to ring 4 phones at the same time so that you will get the call no matter where you are and the other lines will hang up when you answer any one of them. Caution the office not to pickup on the first ring.) It could also ask for a name and then follow you. “Thank you for calling about the property and we look forward to speaking with you shortly.” Barnett www.online2k.net 954-287-1000

  40. Final thoughts • We see this Unified messaging offering as potentially changing the way we do business today in the industry, for the better. • I used to ask REALTORs what are the biggest challenges that you face in the industry today? • Sellers claim: “They never stayed in contact/I never heard from them after they listed the property”. • Or “You charge too much.” • We hope that you agree that we may have solved both issues at once. • Now you will stay in touch very easily and this technology will demonstrate your value over and over. A true Value Added Service to your clients. Some REALTORS are adding an up-front fee to cover the initial value-added service fees. Exclusive phone line, virtual tours, enhancing the listing on REALTOR.com, and today maybe some gas? • Remember Grandma’s story of the Early Bird? It’s still true today!
