4 Ways Real Estate Agents Can Use Free Time to Find More Opportunities

Down time got you down? Here are four ways real estate agents can thrive in their free time and find more opportunities:

1. Learn Something New Everyday

There are endless resources to be found online. You can be more active in a Facebook Group for real estate agents. Play some YouTube videos while you are watching your children. Listen to podcasts while you are cleaning or working out. Or perhaps dig into a real estate blog for a multitude of topics to improve your internet or social media presence.

2. Work on Your Website?

Your real estate website is a work of art that is never finished. Update your agent profile photo. Add some SEO friendly community pages. Update your bio to reflect your recent successes. Start writing blogs and schedule them to publish throughout the year. Your website is a work in progress, but the more your work on it, the better your search engine rankings will be.

3. Set Goals to Accomplish

Ensure that this time you have is spent productively by setting goals with varying degrees of difficulty. Here are example goals with random numbers you can use for inspiration: one daily text to a past client; 10 calls to expired listings, three calls to leads that have gone unresponsive, one personal email to an individual lead, one daily post on Instagram.

4. Find Ways to Improve Your Online Business

There is always room for improvement, and that differs for each agent. If you feel like you are missing out on organic search engine traffic, then work on your website. Do many of your leads go cold? Then try using some of your spare time to put more effort into following up. Do your social media posts not get any engagement? Then learn how to write more captivating captions.
