Mr. No Monkey Offers Strikes Back

[ 20 ] September 3, 2010

Where did the week go?  I have no idea how time moves so quickly.  I still can’t believe we’re in September.
This week I sent out 700 more postcards to absentee owners. It’s the 4th time I’ve contacted this group of homeowners over the past several months so this time I switched it up.  I tested [...]

Now we’re cookin’

[ 10 ] August 15, 2010

Hope everyone has enjoyed the weekend!  This weekend was “Tax Free Weekend” in the retail stores which means that it was a horrendous weekend for me to choose to go last minute back to school shopping for my daughter (she’s going into 4th grade…can’t believe it).  Sure we saved a few bucks, but I would’ve [...]

1000 Postcards, Monkey Offers, and a 7-Day Action Plan

[ 25 ] July 30, 2010

Happy Friday folks!
This has been a really great week for me…it would be even better if I had a couple properties under contract, but they are coming soon!  I sent out just under 1000 postcards in the last 48 hours using click2mail.com (if you are doing postcards, there’s simply no better way of doing them).  [...]

[ 23 ] July 27, 2010

This is too funny.
If you’ve been following my blog for awhile you may remember the story (and voicemail message) I shared about the seller who told me he didn’t want any monkey offers from me. If you never heard this…its funny and you should check out that post before moving on.  I did end up [...]

Lauderdale) and yesterday we went [...]

Tire kicker Tuesday

[ 36 ] February 23, 2010

Hope everyone is having a great start to the week!  I had an awesome weekend at an event called the “Why Warrior Weekend” here in Ft. Lauderdale. There were a number of sessions focused on motivation, wealth building via real estate, marketing (online and offline), attracting customers (led by the awesome Bob Burg), and health [...]

An interesting turn of events

[ 10 ] February 17, 2010

In today’s episode of “Mr. Anti-Technology Man“:
Last I shared with all of you, my realtor neighbor sent off a listing agreement and short sale package to Mr. Anti-Technology Man (aka Mr. ATM) via mail because he has no email, no fax.  She called him a couple times to follow up a few days after she [...]

Yellow letter campaign #1 results

[ 13 ] February 15, 2010

Hope everyone had a nice Valentine’s Weekend!  I thought I’d give a quick update on how things are going with our first yellow letter campaign.  We sent out 125 yellow letters a couple weeks ago (our first time using this particular marketing method) and we received 10 calls — only 1 hang up, so we [...]
