Overview
Connections: Powered by People — it’s our new initiative to help you spark awareness with your agents, remind them that they can assist clients just about anywhere! Real estate needs aren’t always
local; remind your agents they’re connected to the best brands in real estate — all around the globe.
We have prizes to recognize those agents who place referrals through your department. Additionally, to make everyone’s life easier, we’ve got customizable social media templates, letter templates agents can use to promote their global connections to their clients, and curated referral promotion ideas from brilliant fellow network members.
The tools are designed to work either as a stand-alone referral promotion contest, or in conjunction with your company’s own referral promotion campaign. It’s time to power-up your referral promotions (don’t worry; you’ve got connections)!
How do I get started?
Set a goal! Your LeadingRE 2020 Outbound Referral Goal is found at the bottom of your monthly eStats Report and on the right-hand side of your RELO® Xchange Dashboard. The Advanced Reporting Library in Xchange includes a handy Referral Goals by Office Report to help you set per office goals based on agent count.
Announce the Promotion
Take advantage of the referral promotion tools and Connections Powered by People launch video to kick off the promotion and get your agents excited about referrals. Make sure they know that every time they place a referral in 2020 they have a chance to win a $50 AMEX gift card and a grand prize trip to the 2021 Agent SUMMIT at the Wynn Las Vegas.
Keep it Fresh
Take advantage of the new marketing tools and referral contest ideas available on the website. Consider offering your own incentives to build excitement, recognize agents, and keep referrals top of mind.
Enter Referrals Correctly
Be sure to include the name of the referring associate or staff member for each outgoing referral you enter in RELO® Xchange. If you have questions about how to do this, please contact Tracy Vallejo at: tvallejo@LeadingRE.com.
