What is the best way to succeed as a Real Estate Agent?

[the_unluckiest]

Unfortunately it's not easy if you don't have a network of clients already on hand or if you're not willing to do a lot of things for free at this time.

1. Do open houses for more successful agents and come up with an arrangement for buyers who walk through the door without agency (an agent) etc. Have this in writing to avoid drama and a he said she said later on.

2. Put ads in newspapers.

3. Get a website.

4. Tell all your family and friends (believe it or not, people might not know because you haven't been vocal about it!).

5. Go to as many parties you're invited to as possible because every social gathering is an opportunity to pick up a client or people like you enough they introduce you to their friends or family that are in the market to buy/sell.

6. Cold calling (it sucks but it works for some).
