What Successful Realtors® Are Reading
Frequently Asked Questions About Time Management for Realtors®
Q: What should real estate agents stop spending time on?
A: Agents should stop doing repetitive manual tasks that can be automated or outsourced, like designing marketing materials, hand-scheduling posts, or cold-calling unqualified leads.
Q: What are the most valuable activities for a Realtor® to focus on?
A: Focus on building relationships, lead generation, follow-up, and networking with your community or SOI. These are the activities that drive closings and referrals.
Q: How can I ensure I’m managing my time effectively each week?
A: Set weekly goals, batch tasks, use a calendar system, and reflect every Friday on what moved the needle. Delegate or eliminate anything that doesn’t directly support income growth.
Q: What systems help agents stay consistent with outreach?
A: Use CRMs, automated email campaigns, social schedulers, and calendar apps. Working with a full-service marketing company helps build consistency without the overwhelm.
Q: Can outsourcing marketing really make a difference?
