When working as a real estate professional, to-do lists can ramp up quickly. Followup usually ends up taking the largest portion of time for someone working as a real estate professional. This doesn’t have to be the case. Agent Legend‘s own Costas Peppas had a talk with Seattle real estate professional, Garrett Brown about how working proactively instead of reactively can be a game changer for you and your business.

Anything that frees up more of your time to focus on other areas of your life and real estate plan, will pay off down the road.

Coaches often bring extensive industry knowledge to the table, with plenty of ideas and inspiration to keep you and your business innovative and strong.
Create Followup Campaigns
Followup is the most time consuming aspect of working in real estate, but it doesn’t have to be. Creating automated campaigns allows you to communicate quickly and authentically with ever lead that comes your way.

Doing these things early on will ensure you have more time to enjoy your life and approach your business in a balanced way. With the extra time you have you can spend more energy on:
- Your Personal Life
- Maintaining Your Sphere of Influence

- Continued Real Estate Education
- One on One Time with Clients
Balancing your responsibilities will help you avoid burnout as a real estate professional. As Garrett Brown advises, this requires taking a proactive rather than reactive approach to your business.
