WATCH: How to Get More Referrals (Even in a Tough Market)

Referrals are some of the best leads a real estate agent can get. In fact, 89% of agents say that referrals are their most successful marketing tactic. And while 70% of sellers say they would use the same agent, only 25% do.

Fortunately, there's a way to improve the latter statistic. We teamed up with OutboundEngine for a recent webinar to explore the ins and outs of referrals—including asking for them, cultivating them, and staying top of mind so past clients are more likely to refer you.
