When you talk about real estate marketing tools many techniques come to mind. This lens is devoted to sending out printed materials to prospects.

Let's narrow that down a bit. You are familiar with postcard marketing, of course. Recent developments in real estate marketing with postcards may make you want to take a new look at real estate farming methods.

The Story of Joe Girard 

Joe Girard sold 13,001 retail automobiles in his sales career (no fleet sales and he was not in management). Joe averaged 6 sales a day. He sold 18 in one day and 1,425 in one year! Those are records that may never be eclipsed.


The Guinness Book of World Records calls Joe "The Greatest Salesperson In The World." 


How did Joe do it? He had the determination, of course. But he also learned how to foster great personal relationships with his prospects. 


His plan included sending 13 cards to the prospects each year. That's called "branding" in the advertising business.


So, over time he because associated in a good way as the "guy who sells cars" in their minds. When they were in the market for a new car, who do you think they remembered?


I found that you can do it with cards too. Read on.....

Keep in touch techniques 

If you want to use Joe Girard's method, do this:


1. Make a list of prospects for your business

2. Stay in touch with them regularly

3. Send them "thank you" cards

4. Send them seasonal cards

5. Send them news they can use

6. Send them something unusual


"Sounds doable," I hear you thinking. "But to do that takes so much time."


Fear not. I have a solution for you!


Read on.......

The SOLUTION 

SEND OUT CARDS ...... is the answer!


This fantastic system will allow you to:


1.  Put your own signature on the card


2.  Put an image from your computer in the card


3.  Write a message in your own handwriting


4.  Print out an address on the envelope
