real estate referrals

8 Facts and 4 Tips to Strengthen Your Real Estate Referrals

MOD Virtual Assistants, Real Estate

92% of respondents reported that a positive recommendation from a friend, family member, or someone they trust is the biggest influence on whether they buy a product or service.

~ Paul M. Rand, VP Communications @ University of Chicago

Real Estate Referrals: The Backbone of Realtors and Brokerages

Most Real Estate Agents complete nine out of every ten deals from their sphere of influence. This usually includes loved ones, friends, and past clients. Therefore, the amount of business you can generate from referrals is essential and should not be overlooked nor neglected, and yet, many Real Estate professionals do.

Referrals Matter In Real Estate

Word of Mouth

In the modern business world, 74% of consumers say that word-of-mouth is a critical influence on their purchases. ONE offline word of mouth impression increases sales by at least FIVE TIMES MORE than a paid advertisement. Consumers rely on word-of-mouth 2x to 10x more than paid media.

Real Estate Referral Fee

The standard rate for real estate referrals is 25% but this is just a baseline to work from. It can really be whatever you want it to be and can change based on the situation, the relationship of the people involved, and the market. If you want to maintain a good relationship with people referring your business, it’s probably best not to be cheap when it comes to a real estate referral fee. Take care of the people taking care of you!

8 Real Estate Referral Statistics you should take into consideration:

  1. The typical agent earns 42% of their business from repeat clients and referrals from past clients.
  2. 82% of all real estate transactions come from repeat and referral businesses.
  3. 21% of agents get more than 50% of their business from referrals from past clients.
  4. 25% of agents generate more than 50% of their business from repeat clients.
  5. 92% of consumers trust recommendations from friends and family above all other forms of advertising.
  6. 82% of real estate sales result from agent contacts through previous clients, referrals, friends, family, and personal contacts.
  7. 65% of agents get no business from open houses.
  8. 88% of buyers and 84% of sellers would use their agent again or refer them to others.

While marketing funnels, advertising, and prospecting can generate much business, there is still no channel as powerful as referrals and repeat business. Reaching out to your past clients and consistently touching base with everyone in your sphere of influence is an essential strategy that you need to have in place. It doesn’t have to be hour-long conversations or even face-to-face encounters. While those would work well, too, you can use the many means of communication available to set a healthy game plan to nurture your network.

People influence people. Nothing influences people more than a recommendation from a trusted friend. A trusted referral influences people more than the best broadcast message. A trusted referral is the Holy Grail of advertising.

~ Mark Zuckerberg, Co-Founder @ Facebook

4 Tips for a Healthy Referral Pipeline

  1. Start investing before the big sale. The relationship a realtor has with their clients is built upon every interaction they have, from beginning to end. Take advantage of every opportunity to strengthen that relationship, and establish yourself as not just a “salesman” in their life, but a friend who’s genuinely looking out for them. For example, gifts are often reported as a very effective way to do this. Celebrate every milestone on the journey to closing; did the seller pass inspection after a lot of hard work on repairs and upgrades? Send a bottle of champagne!
  2. Cultivate the relationship beyond the sale. The celebration doesn’t stop just because the deal closed. Part of building that relationship extends beyond the closing. You should be strengthening that relationship and staying ever so slightly on their mind, year round. You can do this by continuing to celebrate milestones, like the 1-year anniversary of when they closed on their new house for example. But don’t limit yourself, celebrate anything that’s important to your client too, like their firstborn or the opening of a business. Time for another bottle!
  3. Make it personal, for them. Okay sending a nice bottle of wine or champagne to celebrate milestones and wins is great, but what if they don’t drink? It’s important to keep the whole experience about them, not you. During the entire process, you should be getting to know your clients, so that you can tailor gifts and other experiences around their own interests and preferences. You can even send them a curated list of gift options for the right occasion. But don’t forget the personalized message! Gifts are great, but stories are forever.
  4. Host some killer events. What better way to get people talking than to bring them all to an open bar? Seriously though, a surefire way to get your clients buzzing is to bring them to an event they’ll be talking about all week. This can be in-person or virtual, but keep it relatively intimate. Only invite 10-20 past and current clients, not counting their partner or family. This empowers them to network with each other and gets everyone talking about it to their own friends and family afterward. You’ll be a household name in no time!

Strategize! Execute!

Once you have strategies in place, finding the time to put them into action is a whole other story. Having someone in your team who can put these plans in motion, consistently monitor them, and not just implement them but keep them moving can help you win those referrals and keep business flowing in. A MyOutDesk Marketing or Administrative Virtual Assistant can do that for you as you focus on growing your business and finding more people who will bring in more referrals.

Robert Massie Portrait recruiting virtual assistants

Robert W. Massie Testimonial: 150% More Recruiting At Half The Cost!

Healthcare, Recruitment, Testimonials

Brightstar is a rapidly growing in-home healthcare organization striving to help Americans with quality, affordable assistance – but when it comes to recruiting the best of the best for their organization, who helps them? MyOutDesk! Just listen to what Brightstar Fairfax Owner & President Robert Massie has to say:

“Mark, our virtual assistant, is basically our recruiting department – and he’s been able to drive us from two hires a week to just over four hires a week in the last 12 months. He’s a very skilled individual who understands the health care market, very technically savvy, and he’s been very effective.”

A few years back, Massie left a successful Fortune 500 executive career to launch a Brightstar Franchise with his wife – and in the process, learned how painfully competitive the market is for qualified healthcare staff. He turned to MyOutDesk to help his recruiting, and in less than a year we gave him 150% higher results, for less than half the cost of in-house staffing! If you want to do the same, schedule your Double My Business Strategy Session now!

So what’s the secret sauce that makes his MyOutDesk VA work? We found him a qualified, healthcare experienced recruiting assistant to handle all of his recruiting and turned it into a full-time role that let his HR staff focus on more important tasks in their daily routines. The results were impressive:

“I would’t have expected it was going to be quite this successful. You know, I thought that if I can get 70% of what I would have gotten otherwise maybe that’s good – but I’m getting 150% of what I used to get and it’s less than half the cost of a really good recruiter. It’s turned out to be very, very good – the outcomes can’t be argued with!”

Robert’s experience is similar to many MyOutDesk clients who rely on our trained recruiting assistants to find, follow up with, prequalify help onboard the best & brightest talent for America’s up & coming organizations. We have experience in several industries and across dozens of national market areas, and know-how to help your organization grow rapidly by outsourcing the phone work & scheduling to a trained virtual assistant.

Brightstar Fairfax is assisted by Mark – a hard-working VA with past experience as a trained nurse. We placed Mark with Robert’s team, and over the course of a year, he took them from 2 hires to over 4 per week: and helped them beat the competition to the highest quality trained labor for their organization!

If you’re trying to grow your organization, a recruiting assistant is an amazing resource to put your team growth into high gear, and is available for less than 60% of what you’d pay for in-house staff! Schedule a Double Your Business Strategy Session now and add a virtual assistant to your team today!

Market Research

If you have a knack for gathering data and resources to get them, you may want to offer market research for businesses within your industry. Many business owners and entrepreneurs do not have the time or resources to research independently, so this may be a service you can offer. Through research and feasibility studies, you can examine different aspects of the data you find and help a business with its specific issues. For example, you can explore marketing, technology uses, research and development, and even automation.

Analytics

If you have experience and knowledge about the metrics of running a business, you should consider providing analytical services to business owners. Sometimes, businesses need a little help figuring out things like budget allocation, risk, reward, etc. Analytics provide these data points, but entrepreneurs often don’t understand how to get them or use them. You could help other small businesses raise their venture capital and grow their business.

Online Classes

If you have a specific topic that you feel you are an expert in or have developed a solid method to help people in your industry, why not build an online course? You can share your wisdom, help people out and earn some coin in the process. Online courses are top-rated and are often taken by those who wish to build their knowledge or look for ways to improve their business.

Referrals

This may be the best time to bank on referrals from past clients or customers. Build a referral program that will benefit both you and your referrers.  Be it loyalty reward points for discounts or cold hard cash, working out a solid referral program could bring you tons of new business. According to statistics, word of mouth is the primary factor behind 20-50% of purchasing decisions. Business to business companies with referrals have a 70% higher conversion rate, and they report a 69% faster close time on sales. CUSTOMERS WHO ARE REFERRED TO YOUR BRAND ARE UP TO 5X MORE LIKELY TO USE YOUR REFERRAL PROGRAM THAN CUSTOMERS WHO WEREN’T. Keep that in mind when you build your referral program and come up with something sure to keep those referrals pouring in.

Coaching/Mentoring/Consulting

If you have had great success in starting, running, and growing a business or business, you should definitely consider becoming a business coach or consultant or even starting a mentorship program. Many start-ups and budding entrepreneurs could benefit from your wisdom and advice.

These are just a few ideas you could use to branch out and expand your business this year. But, if you need a strong team to support you, schedule a Double Your Business Strategy Session today to find out how  MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant can do just that and more!

Keeping Your Business Going In Uncertain Times

MOD Virtual Assistants

No matter how much you plan ahead, there are certain things that no amount of preparation can account for. Being flexible and quick on your feet can make all the difference between your business failing and thriving in times of crisis.

Have the best team in place no matter the situation with MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants! Schedule your GoRemote with MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants Strategy Session today to find out how.

Be a Chameleon

Find creative ways to adapt to the current situation. Brainstorm with your team and talk about alternative ways you can run the business while you are at home. If you run a B2C model and rely on face-to-face, in-store interaction with clients, think of ways to provide the same service in a different way. For example, many restaurants continue to operate by adding a delivery service, giving discounts and coupons, subscriptions, etc. to keep up with the competition. This is a more obvious example of course, but take a look at your business model and find ways you can work around your current situation.

 

Keep The Current Situation Top Of Mind

In your marketing, be aware of how you can keep your message relevant to the current situation. Increased and flexible marketing is crucial right now because many people will wonder whether certain businesses are still operational. Make sure your target audience knows you’re open and still going strong.

 

Plan Ahead

It’s important to consider not only how to survive as a business, but also to have a strategy in place for what’s going to happen afterward. Don’t assume that once the crisis has passed, things will just go back to the way they’d been before the outbreak. One key consideration is that being confined to their homes will likely lead to many customers switching to online or otherwise remote solutions, and it shouldn’t be assumed that post-crisis, they will go back to the solutions they’d used prior to the outbreak.

 

Have a Plan A to Z

Make sure that you explore different scenarios and challenges and solutions and steps you will deploy for each one. While you may not be able to predict anything, it’s nice to have contingencies in place so that you can adapt to any situation, odds are that if something comes up that you may not have an exact plan for, having several different challenges plus solutions will help you.

 

Embrace New Technology

Since remote work is now the norm, this is the perfect time to find and try out new innovations in software, apps etc. That may benefit your business’ new set-up. Do your research and try different ones. Consider using online platforms for your planning and communication. Use Google Docs or dropbox for collaborative documents and files that everyone can edit and comment on, Monday or similar software for business planning that keeps everyone on the same page, and the likes of Slack or Stormboard for brainstorming and file-sharing.

We are all in limbo as things unfold in the world, but your business does not have to be. If you would like to discuss further remote staffing options, make sure to schedule a GoRemote with MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants Strategy Session so we can discuss options and how we can help.

[Considering a Virtual Assistant?]

Recruit and Retain

 

R&R has a different meaning from 9 to 5, and it isn’t rest and relaxation; it’s recruit and retain. We talk about exactly how to best do that, here in this webinar series with Dan Stewart, president of Happy Grasshopper.

[Virtual Success Webinar Series] This mastermind webinar shows you how to:

  • Leverage recruitment strategies. What you need to know to attract instead of recruit. Attract competitive talent without seemingly “recruiting.”

  • Scale business & improve processes. Understand the entrepreneur’s scale strategy. Build an engine to efficiently process recruits & new hires.
  • Use VIRTUAL best practices. Metrics, tools, and filters. How to recruit remotely.

 

Key Takeaways
  • Identify, Attract, Retain. If you’re more certain of what you want, you WILL get it!
  • Know the Power of Questions. Slow down and think about the right questions to ask. What’s the purpose of your prosperity? What’s your overall GIANT GOAL?
    QUESTIONS lead to… CONVERSATIONS … which lead to RELATIONSHIPS … then to OPPORTUNITIES … and lastly to SALES. (Read more)
  • Recruitment is a process of EXIT and ARRIVAL EXIT. Receives a signal that they’ve outgrown their former life ARRIVAL – In a new, fantastic adventure, opportunity, career, or way of thinking. Ask yourself, “Are you going to be the HERO of the story, or the GUIDE, the MENTOR?” — YOU ARE THE GUIDE!
  • 2 Recruiting Styles. 1) OBI-WANs recruit and depart. They show up, and then they’re gone! 2) LUKEs stay on a mission with the recruit, someone they go to battle with. They stay on the mission together.

What a productive real estate team in 2021 looks like

Did You Know?  MyOutDesk’s origin story is set during the last global financial crisis of 2008. Yes, that’s right — our business started by scaling businesses with virtual assistants during a recession! Our first client in 2008 went from five to seventeen VPs with a completely revamped organizational model in short order, and he told MyOutDesk, “Our virtual professionals have shaved $250,000 off our monthly overhead.”

Blended Business Model: Remote Work with Traditional Employees & Virtual Assistants

Administrative, Cannabis & Legal Marijuana, Financial Planning, Healthcare, Human Resources, Inside Sales, Insurance, Marketing, Marketing, MOD Virtual Assistants, Mortgage, Property Management, Real Estate, Technology

We all know that businesses are thriving online in today’s information age. So why aren’t businesses proportionally blending their physical and remote practices?

Working from home is actually more productive than working from the office. According to studies from Stanford, it turns out work-from-home employees work a true full-shift (or more) versus being late to the office or leaving early multiple times a week and found it less distracting and easier to concentrate at home.

The fact that the Internet and other modernizations have globalized our economy gives you a chance to scale your business faster and further than ever before, using a blended business model, as many big companies do.

What exactly is a Blended Business Model?

A blended business model is an engineered organizational chart where part of an organization works in-house and another part works virtually.

Symptoms when without a Blended Business Model:

  • Company revenue productivity is suffering because most of your time as the CEO is spent on non-revenue efforts.
  • Your growth curve is flat because you’re stuck with administrative work.
  • You know you need support but do not want to go through the tedious process of hiring, only to have your hires leave after a period of time, thus putting you in a vicious cycle.
  • Your workload is starting to get overwhelming and the quality of your life is suffering.

Hiring Virtual Assistants solves a lot of problems and actually brings many benefits. For example, a full-time Virtual Assistant will cost you 25%-30% of the cost of an in-house employee. A Virtual Assistant will have their own equipment and software, and will not take up any precious office space, so overhead costs are cut down as well. Organizations like MyOutDesk cover HR concerns, benefits, and even things like paid time off; while all you do is pay your monthly subscription.

Still curious about MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants? Schedule your Go Remote Business Strategy Session now to learn more!

The Stats: Blended Teams Outperform Competitors

Stanford Studies have shown that remote workers show increased productivity by 16%. Those who work from home seem to be more focused with fewer distractions. They also found that employees working in open offices took 62% more sick days than virtual employees.

Deloitte’s Millennial Survey 2017 found that remote work arrangements are “strongly linked to improved performance and employee retention.” Furthermore, 38% of respondents reported they were likely to leave their current employer within the next two years, with much citing work/life balance and flexibility as major contributing factors.

Large companies are benefitting from using a blended employment model. In fact, a new regulation stemming from the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act has given us a clearer picture of the extent to which some of the largest U.S. companies employ global talent.

You might be surprised at the high percentages of global talent that successful companies have reported so far:

  • Kellogg: 80%
  • General Electric: 66%
  • United Technologies: 68%
  • Whirlpool: 80%
  • Merck: 55%
  • Honeywell: 58%
  • Hanes: 80%
  • Mattel: 78%
  • Wal-Mart: 35%

If these major companies employ this strategy, there is no reason that you cannot for your own business as well.

Implications of Outsourcing: Virtual Assistants + Traditional Employees = Growth

Employing a Virtual Assistant means that the company is making an investment for the entire team and looking to achieve the next level of excellence and performance. A Virtual Assistant is a full-time addition to the organization, but they will work with you virtually. They can shoulder specific daily responsibilities, help maintain smooth operations, and allow the physical team more freedom to focus on their work.

Imagine not needing to take every distracting phone call anymore, until a relevant call is forwarded to you!

We’re helping to level the business playing field by helping small & medium-sized businesses offshore as the big companies have for years. It doesn’t mean that jobs are going away, but it does mean that more work is available and more income is generated because entrepreneurs finally have the affordable help they need to close more transactions & generate more commissions.

Don’t do this alone. Come out stronger with MyOutDesk.

Find the knowledge + positive support that you need NOW.

Virtual Assistants & Blended Teams

When we founded MyOutDesk 15

years ago, we realized that a virtual assistant living in the Philippines could do all of the clerical work online that an assistant could here in the USA for a fraction of the cost, and when we started helping small businesses to hire them we realized that it was a win-win proposition for everyone.

Virtual assistants have all the qualifications (and often more) than local labor but at 1/3 the cost — which means you can afford to hire better help for a lower price, and you can afford to employ MORE of that help to grow your business. They’re high-quality labor, with a great education and an outstanding work ethic, and available for wages that similarly qualified Americans typically won’t work for.

Blended teams are exciting because it finally means that entrepreneurs can employ a competitive advantage in their business formerly reserved only for top-tier manufacturing companies — like the folks who made your iPhone. Just like them, you’re able to delegate repetitive, non-dollar productive tasks to a virtual assistant, which in turn helps you focus your time & energy on what actually makes you money.

The fact that the Internet and other modernizations have globalized our economy gives you a chance to scale your business faster and further than ever before, using Virtual Assistant services. Demand for virtual talent is increasing because it works for most business owners. Simply put: it is good for business.

To learn more comprehensively about the blended business model (as well as other awesome strategy guides) schedule your Go Remote Business Strategy Session today and find our how a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant can support you to boost your business.

Marvin Mitchell: Making a 20x ROI with Virtual Assistants!

Financial Planning, MOD Virtual Assistants, Testimonials

Marvin is a top-ranked, nationally recognized financial advisor with a focus on helping people invest & save more wisely for their golden years. As the founder of Compass Retirement Solutions, his team leverages MyOutDesk virtual assistants for both administrative & inside sales roles, and on average, they’re making him over a 20x ROI – and sometimes even more.

“My virtual assistant made me $43,000 in commissions less than half an hour ago, so if you’re still on the fence about hiring one, my advice is: just do it. The ROI on our virtual assistants is amazing – it’s definitely going to finish the year over 20x…”

Marvin isn’t just leveraging his ISAs for prospecting: he’s also using them to prequalify prospects, which saves his team of advisors countless hours – and lets them focus on advising only qualified prospects who are ready to take advantage of his expertise. This is only one of the many strategies Marvin has used to grow his business into the #3 financial advising firm in the United States. Take Marvin’s advice: just do it! Schedule your Double My Business Strategy Session now!

Marvin grew up in a working-class family in St. Louis, with little money. The first in his family to earn a college degree, Marvin put his law school education on hold to help care for his grandmother after she was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer. Marvin soon discovered that, although his grandmother had worked her whole life, she was still susceptible to financial turmoil as a result of poor financial advice and a stock market crash. Inspired to help other, hardworking retirees, Marvin became a broker for a large financial institution in 2005 before founding Compass Retirement Solutions.

“Once we get that lead, that’s where my MyOutDesk virtual assistants come in – they’re following up on those leads, getting them on our calendar and making our time more efficient. It saves us literally hundreds hours of time because we don’t have to skim through all of those individuals to find the most qualified people – and it’s changed our average case size from $325,000 to over $850,000!”

In 2016, he received the Salute to Business Excellence Award as voted by the St. Louis American Newspaper, and also that year, he was an honored recipient of the St. Louis County NAACP Distinguished Legacy Award. Schedule your Double My Business Strategy Session now, and drill down on doing your one thing to the absolute best of your abilities.

Bill shares his strategies to lead in today’s uncertain times.

  • Lead Without a Plan — Although this sounds like terrible leadership, IF you relay that you’re FIGHTING through any crisis and problem, and when you work collectively with your team, you can figure out and make astounding pivots with your leadership.
    • Continue to hold the vision and communicate
    • Fight like hell
    • Ask your people for help
  • Radical Requests — Get access to improving the situation. Instead of feeling confined, ask what you really need! Don’t wipe yourself out, BUT work with a solution — For example, with clients & prospects, you can ask, “What do you need? What can I do for you instead?” It can help you turn situations around and come out with success and growth!
  • Name That Feeling — it takes courage to show emotions, and courage needs strength, to be a whole human! Nobody’s great—there are moments that you are, and moments that you’re not. Emotions make you human. There is power and courage in being a leader. Being human as a leader gives your people a truth, that you’re not faking it to make it. Self-awareness & mindfulness. Calling it out as a practice of acceptance—it becomes a powerful thing. Call it out and go with it!
  • Execute Flexible — Working remotely to keep the business going. Technology can help you manage virtually. At the same time, don’t change or abandon your long-term vision and goals. Shift priorities, or even strategies! Metrics and dashboards? It might be missing since you moved virtually. Some tools and apps can help you out and keep it up. This helps people know if we’re collectively hitting metrics and KPIs. Keep the progress visibility out there!
  • Let People Get Off the Bus — People who continually resist might not be a good fit in your environment. There might be a better place for them to win. How do you get people in this space and get the right requests out there? By leading up in the front and leading by example. Work with your team, and ask them what they can do. Keep nudging them up. Make a list of radical requests and have them do one while you are encouraging and helping. Fully appreciate and acknowledge the radical request from both perspectives.
  • Be a Trend-Spotter — Acknowledge the weaknesses and strengths in the world and yourself right now. What do they need? What can you do better? Pivot your business around what people need, and you might see opportunities. This might be the same business to different people, or a different business for the same people. Look for trends far outside the norm, and look broadly across the world. Bill shares his SWT tool—strengths, weaknesses, and trends. Start using this tool for in your industry, then for your region, and afterward go even broader!

MyOutDesk is a top-tier outsourced resource partner. I personally have 10+ years of experience working with vendor resources in Big Tech, and the level of service that my current Real Estate firm has... received with MOD has exceeded my expectations. Paul Vasquez, our sales consultant was patient, accommodating, and took the time to answer all of my nitty-gritty questions. The onboarding and staff selection process was a breeze, and we were operational within 1-2 weeks. The resource provided was having a positive impact on the business on Day 1, and continues to be a valued member of our team. I can easily say that we're not just saving money, but a ton of time, by working with MOD.read more

All I'm going to say is that my business has more than doubled in the first 3 months of working with Pearl, my very amazing VA from My MOD Desk. If you are stressed, weeded out from all the admin... duties a business requires on a daily basis, or if you'd simply like to scale your business and have more time on your hands to make more money, then I DEFINITELY recommend hiring a VA from My MOD Desk. I don't know HOW I would successfully keep growing my Real estate company without my amazing VA Pearl. HUGE thank you to My MOD Desk for connecting me with my amazing Administrative Virtual Assistant!Pablo Ramirez, P.A.Real estate Broker-AssociateUnited Realty Group, Inc.read more
