Aim for success in your real estate business

Being on the go is the definition of a modern day Realtor®. With the constant coming and going, do you know how to aim for success in your real estate business?

Jeremias Maneiro, a Realtor® from Rochester, NY, said new and seasoned real estate agents struggle adapting to the mobile-office lifestyle.

For those that have been in the real estate business for many years, they may be used to going in to the office, then out for a lunch appointment, back to the office, then meeting with clients in the evening. Those that are new to the business may not be familiar with how to adapt digital trends to their real estate business. With technology, you can do 95 percent of your business from anywhere and achieve success.

“For most individuals, the first step to operating as a mobile business is to go paperless. While this is true, oftentimes it’s hard to know where to start and the best way to manage in a world where not everyone functions in that manner,” Maneiro detailed.

There are tools that manage transactions for agents—Docusign, zipForms, Instanet—but what about your notes? Maneiro recommends Evernote.

“Evernote is a powerful tool. If all you do is take notes on your tablet or phone, then that’s good. But the search and organization features within the application make it the ultimate filing cabinet. However, for Realtors® that use paper for everything, the transition may be harder to handle,” Manerio added.

Evernote is free and has paid subscriptions for additional features. The application also works on mobile devices and your computer, so all of your information is synced across all of your devices.

Maneiro will be presenting a program at the Triple Play Realtors® Convention in Atlantic City, December 8-11 titled Agents in Motion (AIM) 4 Success.
