2020 is finally upon us and just like most
successful real estate brokers, you are probably bursting with motivation to
make this year your best yet. It probably also means that your mind is constantly
filled with thoughts about recruiting and how you can accomplish significant
goals for expansion over the next 12 months. You may even be feeling slightly
discouraged if you came up short on your recruitment goals for this year. Don’t
worry because the team at Weichert has the know-how to help you recruit the
agents you need to support your business this coming year and rise to a new
level of real estate stardom in your market.
Immerse Yourself In The Community
You can’t expect to attract many new agents
without your brokerage being a prolific member of the community. The more
opportunities that you seize to host events, get involved in charitable works,
partner with other businesses, and network with like-minded people, the more
brand awareness you will achieve. Your goal here is to make your brokerage
synonymous with the area you serve, so that when agents think of your market,
they automatically think of you as the most active brokerage in the area, and thus the one most
likely to facilitate their success.
Become The Go-To Educational Resource
Agents crave education and support from their
broker, so by regularly hosting classes, webinars, and publishing content that
will help them grow, you can improve your current team’s production and create
buzz on the streets that will attract motivated agents. When it comes to
hosting educational or recruiting events, think practically. Rather than
hosting your events during the day when most people are otherwise busy, hold
them in the evenings to increase attendance. You should also invest in
proactively marketing these events on websites like Eventbrite, in your social
media and in your conversations with agents. While in many ways agents act like
standalone businesses, the more you demonstrate your leadership, expertise, and
willingness to give back through education, the more agents will be eager to
park their desk inside your brokerage.
Have Materials That Keep You Top of Mind
Agents that are considering you brokerage are
eager to understand what makes you different and how your model can benefit
them. Face to face meetings are always best, but make sure you are armed with
takeaway materials for those you come in contact with that they can digest
later and also serve a reminder of your meeting. Whether its flyers, simple
brochure or a recruiting card distributed at a career fair or a more detailed
piece for a targeted recruit. Help them remember you when they leave the
meeting. Gather testimonials from your existing agents to promote on social media. Promote activities that your agents participate in as a team, such as
charitable drives and social events to show off your awesome culture. Create
video testimonials of your current agents discussing the benefits of joining
your brokerage and share them on your website, YouTube, and social media
accounts for prospects to see.
Implement Proven Systems & Processes To Meet Your Recruiting Goals
So whether you’re targeting 5, 10 or 25
agents, you can hit your number with the right infrastructure in place. Just
ask our Weichert brokers! The challenge is to create the recruiting systems,
activities and tools needed to meet your business goals. It can also be
daunting when you don’t have the tools and technology behind you to offer
agents a reason to join your brokerage. Affiliating with a brand like Weichert
can provide you with support in both areas. With our proven recruiting system, coupled with a full suite
of recruiting materials and our package of marketing tools, training,
technology support and lead sources, you’ll have everything you need to grow your
