I can’t tell you how many times we’ll be in our weekly sales meeting and I’ll say, “That listing was a web site lead” or “those clients found our web site and we’ve been communicating for months”. Without fail, some agent will whine, “I’ve had a web site for five years and never gotten a single lead, how do you get so lucky?”

It’s not luck. It’s hard work. 100s of hours of it. Go to whiney agent’s site and you’ll see a standard template that’s *never* been modified. One agent told me, “I pay for my site every month and don’t even know the site address”.

Hello??? If YOU don’t know the URL, how will anyone else???? It’s unfreakin’ believeable. I also hear, “I don’t have time to work on my site”. This from an agent that sits on her ass gossiping and reading the paper all day….

45% don’t respond to leads. That’s pathetic. Something like 13% of the realtors in our MLS area DON’T EVEN HAVE AN EMAIL ADDRESS!!!

This is my “competition”. I’m loving it, though I’ll never understand it!

Given my agenda, that might be wishful thinking. ;)
