“The Millionaire Real Estate Agent” by Gary Keller
Why Seller Leads are Awesome!
“…On average, one well-marketed listing will generate one serious buyer who buys… It’s the real estate industry’s version of the
‘twofer.’”

• Typical sellers “think” for 6-12 months*• 65% of sellers use the first agent they contact to assist with their home sale. ** • The majority of sellers interview only 1 agent (and spend less than 1 day interviewing!)**
• Engaging with a consumer early and having the tools to stay in touch is a huge competitive advantage!
• Short-term thinking causes “Peaks and Valley’s” in your income stream
