Currently, I am more in education side of the business than the marketing side. I broke
down the activities and show the percentage of each activity for
present (currently in place) and for the future (planning).
My spring ideas for this
year would be:
1.
Education Currently (20%), Planned (15%)
Taking real estate courses, attend TAR and NAR seminars and
conferences and serving as a TAR, NAR committees and monitor in
the classes offered by our board.
Also,
recently I joined a Toastmaster club in our area and my goal is to
finish the 10 required presentations to be completed by the end
of this year, which gives me the Competent Communicator (CC)
designation too.
2.
Blogging, Social Media: Currently (15%), Planned
(10%)
Blogging and publishing them in blogging platform such as
Activerain and other social medias such as facebook business
page, facebook groups, LinkedIn, Google, etc.
3.
Teaching: Currently (0%), Planned (10%)
I am certified instructor from TREC to teach real estate core as
well as elective courses. I have a plan to teach some of these
courses in next couple of months.
4.
Tool Development: Currently (15%), Planned (5%)
I am in nature engineer and programmer and still designing and
developing websites, programming and create apps for my tool. I
will this as a continuous basis.
5.
Marketing: Currently (0%), Planned (1%)
I don’t advertise, send postcard nor market myself. I rely on
reputation and articles I write on the web and word of mouth
from my SOI (sphere Of Influence).
6.
Work: Currently (11%), Planned (15%)
This refers to actual time spent on my real estate clients. It
covers searching properties for clients, writing contracts and
negotiation, helping clients all the way to closing and after.
7.
Travel: Currently (11%), Planned (11%)
I have plan to travel to Europe for visiting friends and family
(pleasure) about 1 month, travel to out-of-town and out-of-state
for TAR and NAR seminars and conferences (business) with a total
of 3 weeks. (11%)
8.
Me Time: Currently (13.0%), Planned (18%)
This includes the time to visit friends and family and spent
times with them. Next month, a family of 4 is coming from Canada
to visit us and probably I spent about 2 weeks (14 days) with
them and entertaining them. 1 week per year(7 days) my vacation.
Additionally, time by time I meet with other friends and family
members, estimated total 1 day in two weeks (26 days per year).
Total 47 days/365 day= 13%
9.
Sleep: Currently (15%), Planned (15%)
I know some of you might think this is a typo, but is not. I
usually sleep about 3-4 hours a day, that ratio becomes
4hours/24hours=16%
The pie chart below shows my breakdown activities for
present and future.
