Your Farming Area is the primary area (suburb) you will focus your Lead Generation on, which will be converted into listings. Here you will call your Have not Met’s. The ideal is for your farming area to not be too far from where you live so that it is easy for you to go see clients. Consult with your productivity coach to help you identify your farming area.
The role of your Productivity coach is to lead you, assist you, and to hold you accountable for your mutually agreed upon goals, to guide you through the many facets of a real estate transaction, and to coach you in developing the skills you need to be successful.
When you have an OTP (Offer to purchase) your productivity coach needs to be present whenever you negotiate a transaction with a buyer or seller for as long as you are an Intern Estate Agent without an NQF4 qualification.
Should your productivity coach not be available, consult your MCA to assign a Full Status Estate Agent to assist you.
ACTION: Schedule a consultation & appoint your Productivity Coach, as per the 10 Week Plan (Week 3).
