Ignite Your Business Part 3: Time for a Recommendation

This is the last part of our 3 part system for agents looking to get a quick jump start on their business and to ignite a little buzz over a 30 day period. Again, we are going to need your contact management system in order, and grouped into your A's, B's and C's.

In the last part, we are going to work on giving people recommendations. But not just any old recommendation.  The first step is to join LinkedIn, if you haven’t already.  Then I want you to search for people you have worked with, either in real estate, or in some other capacity.

Next, I want you to recommend them.  Say something positive and unique about that person.  Speaking of their uniqueness is key. Focus on something about that person that makes them stand out above all others. You want to give the kind of recommendation that makes someone message you and tell you how you just made their day or their week.  If you need help learning to right a good recommendation, click here.

This is a really easy task and won't take more than 10 to 15 minutes of your time.  I want you to give one recommendation a day for the next 30 days.  By doing this, you have hopefully made 30 people happy, and if you are lucky, you will get 30 recommendations of your own.  Even if that doesn't happen, even if you only got 10, that is better than none.

Social media is out there to help you. And it’s perfect for what you want to do–generate leads. Where else can you have access to millions of people in the matter of a few clicks?
