If you're a brokerage owner or team leader, I’ve got a question for you:

What drives market share? When you look at a ranking report of your company or team against others in your market, what drives that market share higher?

If you want to go from 1% to 2% or from 5% to 10%, the number one driver is your ability to recruit experienced agents. Here’s why: As you recruit these agents, their production gets added to your team’s numbers, and your market share will rise.

But what we often forget is that when you pull an agent from Company A to your company, Company A's market share goes down, and yours goes up. So, you get a double whammy—Company A goes down by 1%, and your company goes up by 1%. That means the spread grows by 2%.

By focusing on recruiting experienced agents, you grow your market share that much faster.

Hey guys, you know what everyone’s starting to get right now?

Their property tax statements.

When people get those statements, they rush to open them and think, "My home’s worth more than that," or "My property’s worth less than that," or something in between.

Here’s an opportunity for us. Why not reach out to all of your clients, your sphere of influence, and your social audiences with this message:

“Hey guys, you’re probably getting your property tax statements around now. If you look at that assessed value and disagree with it, or just want an updated value of your property, give me a quick call or text. I do this as a free service for all my friends and family, just to keep you in touch with your finances and your equity position.”

That’s it! That’s the messaging. People will absolutely take advantage of this, and it opens the door to conversations.

You might wonder, "Jim, why would I do this if they’re not interested in selling?" You’re doing it because friends refer friends...
