I know that many of the top producers have been in the business for a very long time. Many of them continue to think that just because the way they do business yesterday made them a success it will still be effective in tomorrow's market.
It won't. The future of real estate is mobile. In 5 years time just about every agent doing any business will have a tablet. The days of bringing the big listing presentation packets are gone. Why not share them the real time data they want. If you want to do business in tomorrow's market then you must embrace mobile technology.
Many of you are going to read this post and say yeah I know and may think about mobile technology for about 2 minutes before getting distracted and forgetting about it all together. 5 years from now you will get that tablet out of necessity not out of desire to be a success. Real estate agents tend to wait until they "cannot live without it". Why not be one of the first and not the last.
Did you know that by the year 2013 there will be more mobile searches then computer searches?
Did you know that less than 10% of real estate agents have tablets?
Did you know that only 52% of real estate agents have a smart phone?
Could you imagine being that 48%/
Be an innovator. Be Creative and Choose to be different. Be mobile and it will payoff.
