Go Old School With Cold Calls
Cold calling, though a seemingly outdated tactic for REALTOR® lead generation, is a tried and true method. Many of today’s agents, especially the younger generation, hate the idea of sitting at their desk and making call after call. After all, those who become real estate agents may choose to do so to avoid a traditional desk job.
But sticking to this old school lead generation method may just be the trick to generate better and more valuable real estate leads for REALTORS®. By implementing traditional phone work into your lead generation strategy, you are filling a potentially immediate need, which will ultimately lead to better conversations with better results.
Of course, just like any marketing or lead generation tactic, rules apply. When making real estate cold calls, it is important to follow a well-written script. This will not only help you remember important information, but it will help to make you sound more professional so that the person on the other line will have a positive response.

Once you have a script ready, be sure to practice with friends, family and coworkers. This will help you develop your message, as well as the opportunity to learn what to do when the caller is interested and how to respond to hearing a “no.”
Connect With Your Sphere of Influence
A real estate agent’s sphere of influence is a gold mine. Identified by friends, family, social media contacts, acquaintances and past clients, this list of people in your network, both personal and professional, can help you with your lead generation.
But how exactly can your sphere of influence help you with lead generation? By staying connected! Whether you choose to send out daily or weekly newsletters, share posts on social media or even mail a personalized note, having constant contact with your sphere of influence is important. They should be your primary source for transactions and repeat business, as long as you do your part. Because when you take care of your people, they will take care of you.
