Building A Referral-Based Business
Real Estate, as most successful Realtors and Agents understand, is a relationship business. Building your business by working your relationships to receive referrals is the most resilient way to create on-going revenue regardless of what is happening to the economy.

There are many theories on how to build a referral-based business but what they all come down to is staying in touch with your contacts on a regular basis (at least once a month).

Here's our top ten ways you should keep in touch with your contacts each month. We suggest you select a few and mix and match to suit your personality and to provide some variety. (You can click on the text to link to more details on that topic).

#2 Personal Phone Call

As well as staying in touch, you need to be mindful of the following aspects of your referral business:

  • Recording your contacts in a contact management system
  • Learning how to ask for referrals
  • Avoiding cookie-cutter solutions
  • Setting goals and a budget

  • Hiring a business coach to help you with these activities
