How to Systemize Yourself into a Superstar Realtor

If you've ever wondered how a different real estate agent manages to do it all, the solution might surprise you.

She’s got sound systems in place for her business. 

It’s true. The most productive individuals have one thing in common: they don't create their own wheel daily. Instead, they've discovered the ideal, most efficient method to complete each activity and established a system.

A structured approach will assist you in any business and any project by helping you:

  • Work faster and be more productive.

  • Produce higher quality results with fewer mistakes.

  • Easily outsource the tasks you don’t like to do.

The Magic of Templates

How often do you respond to inquiries through email or send your strategic partners information about future events?

When you make fill-in-the-blank templates that may be used for specific situations/people, these activities and more become simple. Templates can be as basic as a "canned response" in your email or help desk responder, or you may utilize applications like Text Expander (for Mac) or Phrase Express (for Windows). You might also use Dropbox or Google Drive to store all your templates in one document for easy access.

The real benefit of templates is that once they're produced, you can easily outsource elements like email and respond to queries. You'll be free to focus on other tasks while your assistant uses your templates correctly.

Checklists Prevent Mistakes

It may appear paradoxical, but repeating the same activities over and over again makes it easy to overlook a crucial stage. You may believe you completed all of your paperwork, contracts, and signed documents — or at least remember doing it—only to find out later that something was never finished.

It is simpler to recall an essential activity when you use checklists.

Using nothing more than a text document, you can easily make checklists for all of your daily and project activities. Lists in your project management system let you know which tasks are complete and which are still pending when you're managing a team.

Templates and checklists help inexperienced Realtors become productive superstars, and it is simple to get started. Save your response the next time you respond to an email that you've previously addressed. Take the time to note each of your actions when you create a new property or establish a new opt-in page on your website. These documents will make future endeavors more accessible and faster to finish, and best of all, you may give them over to your assistant to handle instead.
