Could You FORCE A Referral?

Wouldn’t It Be Great If You Could FORCE A Referral?

This is a question that has always puzzled me and I think I found a solution I wanted to share with you. Realtors are always looking for great content to provide to their buyers while exposing themselves ( not literally).

So Why Not Give It To Them?

Yes- newsletters work by mail and e-mail but here’s an idea for you try.
Below is a video of my regular appearance on NBC locally. In this video I explain the mortgage process and why not Getting Pre-Approved could cost the buyer 1000.00 dollars.

YES- I did this on TV – but that’s part of the shameless self promotion that you see me advocating.

But you could also do this simply in front of a camera yourself- or even on your phone and then upload it to YOU TUBE and share the link. I encourage my Realtors to put it up on their own website.

So now their prospects see me whenever they are on the Realtors site or Facebook page- and guess who they want to speak to?

Pretty clever way to FORCE the referral by providing great content

Give it a try and let us know how you do.

Heck- this is only a 2 minute video

IT’S AS SIMPLE AS ASKING

You know the old saying about what happens when you ASS-U-ME right?

I just got off the phone with a client who closed a few days ago.

Now I am very deliberate and have an elaborate system of stimulating referrals from past clients.

They are added to my newsletter – they are added to my weekly e-mails and they are sent items in the mail including a survey with room for referrals.

But often we simply forget to just ask them for some when we speak to them.

NEVER EVER ASSUME that just because you did a great job anyone will remember who you are or refer you to a friend.

In fact- marketing experts tell us that for every month that goes by without a contact you lose 10% of your influence with a client.

After speaking to this client and wishing him good luck with his closing I simply asked him if any of his friends and neighbors were considering purchasing or refinancing.

GUESS WHAT

I now have 3 new referrals!

BUT – I have asked him to call these people first and let them know that he had a good experience and that he suggested they call me!

Go ahead and ask- if you don’t ask- you can never receive!

I am off to speak in San Francisco for ACUMA which is the national association for credit unions that have a mortgage division. I will be sharing the 10 BIGGEST MISTAKES ORIGINATORS MAKE AND HOW TO AVOID THEM.
