If it were only about the money, every agent would always be with the lowest cost brokerage

In the second of a series of three articles, I had the opportunity to get the pulse on recruiting from Steve Murray, president and owner of REAL Trends. Murray has co-authored four books on the valuation of residential real estate brokerage firms; co-authored the 2011 book “Game Plan,” about the past and future of residential brokerage; and co-authored the 2014 book, “Game Changers: The Unfounded Fears and Future Prosperity of the Residential Real Estate Business.” He has served dozens of state and local Realtor® associations and MLS organizations in a consulting capacity and has consulted with several large technology firms over the years.

Steve, what in your opinion is a significant motivation for an agent to join a firm?

While there is a far higher interest today in splits and bonuses to switch, for the majority of agents, it remains the relationship with their firm and with the leader that makes the difference. Does the broker have a vision for the future? Where is the company going? Is the firm moving forward in technology and using the latest marketing channels?

Top agents need different things than newer or lower producers. Brokerage leaders need to keep that in mind when recruiting. The broker needs to understand what an agent is looking for at this moment of their real estate career; training, mentoring and marketing. The better a broker understands a potential recruit, the more successful they are in recruiting and retaining the agent for the long term.

What should brokers stop doing when recruiting?

You are not going to be successful with just texting, emailing, phone calling and direct mail in getting new recruits. They must see your program but more importantly your heart and you can only do that in person. As my mentor and good friend Larry Kendall of Ninja has said, “More listening and less talking works better than the alternative.”

The broker needs to communicate on a personal level how their firm and they themselves can work with the agent for the agent’s success and therefore the overall brokerage’s success.

What recruiting trends are developing?

The biggest trend we see are brokers getting far more intelligent about the agents they talk to. How many years in business, how much production, which educational courses or designations they have and what their personal interests are. They are beginning to be far more scientific about recruiting as they have learned that not all agents would make good candidates for their firms and some just aren’t “gettable”.

My advice to today’s brokers is to find the right recruiting tools to know as much as you can about your recruiting prospects. Know their production, their goals, the culture they thrive in and their sales profile. Make sure they are a fit for your firm otherwise, the relationship will not work and you will have wasted your time and the agent’s. A recruiting tool that provides you as much information regarding your prospects and allows you to reach out to them in many ways to set up that all important personal meeting is essential to be a successful recruiter.

The final takeaways:

Relationships matter to agents.

Make recruiting personal.

Know your recruits.

Have a brokerage with a clear mission.

Make sure your culture fits that of the agent.

Have a competitive compensation offer.

In a data driven world, how well do you know your recruits?

http://ift.tt/2GFB3oq

We live in a world driven by data: you can use facial recognition to open your phone, fingerprints to make payments, and numerous apps track what you do, where you go and what you buy. Top performing companies are using this valuable data to track our lifestyles, buying habits, and much more with the intent of positioning their products in front of you. How are you using today’s technology to grow your real estate business?

In this first of a series of three articles, I sat down with Judy LaDeur of Judy Ladeur International to weigh in on some important trends and topics we are all facing today regarding the importance of knowing your recruiting target. LaDeur was named one of the top 25 most influential women in real estate in a TRENDS report conducted by Swanepoel and is a highly sought after speaker, coach, trainer and consultant to the real estate industry.

How important is personalization with recruiting?

It’s really important. Research shows that 80 percent of real estate agents are emotional decision makers, which means that they need to trust you and like you. The relationship is really important, and you can’t build a relationship with generic marketing materials. But personalization means more than just personalized marketing materials — it’s also personalization on social media platforms, your conversations and interactions, everything. Agents are bombarded with recruiting attempts every day, in fact, many recruiting efforts just bounce off the recruit without any impact at all. If you want to get their attention, don’t make them feel like just another number, but let them know that you are genuinely interested in them and their business and your efforts will pay off.

What are your thoughts on production? Does it matter when recruiting?

Absolutely! As a Broker you need to know what a potential recruit’s production is to determine if they are a good fit for your firm. It’s one of the basic tools that I always recommend that broker’s invest in if they are committed to recruiting. Production information tells you: Has their business dropped in the past year? Gone up? What about their office? What’s their production and how does it compare to your firm? Can you help them increase their income with your tools? It’s always great to know when the agents on your hit list secure a new listing or close a transaction. It’s a great reason to reach out to them and an easy way to give recognition to agents that you want on your team.

How important is it to be tapped into social media?

In today’s world, it’s really important! Social media is the fastest way to build relationships with those emotional agents. Social media is a great way to get those contacts in and it’s also a great way for them to get to know you on a personal level, even before they meet you. You too can learn much about an agent by visiting their social medial sights and following them. All the social media platforms are important, and you should know which platform each of the agents you are talking to uses. Brokers who are tapped into social media say they will sign up an additional 6-8 agents per year just by staying connected.

Tell us the importance of tracking all your conversations?

The rule of marketing is 3-7-27. It takes 3 contacts or interactions for the potential recruit to remember who you are. It takes 7 interactions for them to remember you and connect your name with the company that you work for. It takes 27 interactions/contacts or to build and gain their trust. That is a lot of conversations before you set up a meaningful recruiting appointment. Tracking your conversations, setting up reminders and having the communications tools to reach out in many ways such as email, texting, video and voice are critical to recruiting success.

What recruiting tools do you recommend to your clients?

It’s great to coach so many quality leaders on how they can recruit more effectively. The one product that has always been a constant is Brokermetrics® . But when I found out that Realty Connection® and Terradatum teamed up to create OnTask Recruiter, the CRM powered by Brokermetrics® , I knew it was a game changer. Not only do you have the production metrics in front of you, but it also gives you alerts when your top prospects take a listing or have a closing. It tracks your own agents’ production and transaction activity for retention. Creating notes is simple. It tracks communications like emails, texts, video emails, and automations and gives access to the agents’ social media accounts. It is really the only all-in-one recruiting CRM that is out there and what I have been recommending to many of my clients.

In summary, to be a successful recruiter: Know your agents. Be authentic. Create a relationship. Use the right tools.
