With the holiday season among us, it seems that buyers and sellers take a vacation from buying and selling just like everyone else. With all the distractions that the holidays have to offer like shopping, dinner parties, celebrating, traveling, etc. Many Orlando realtors welcome this time of year to enjoy some much-needed downtime with friends and family. Real estate professionals know that once all the holiday distractions disappear that it’s back to work as usual because historically that’s what happens. This is why Top Orlando Realtors never stop working and even work harder through the holidays.
Marketing your business and keeping up with the competition is no easy task but it’s by far the most important. The fact that the phone doesn’t ring as much during the holidays allows for top real estate professionals to work even harder so that when things go back to normal again they find themselves ahead of the game instead of having to play catch up. I hate coming back from a long vacation to face an even longer to-do list. It makes me feel like I need a vacation!
Catch up on your Blogging
With the phone not ringing as much, it also provides more quiet time during the day which is perfect for writing articles for my blog, like this one. It’s a lot more challenging keeping up with a daily blog when you have to follow up with 20+ Orlando short sale files every day. I get my best ideas when I have silence and the more silence that I have, the more I write. As a matter of fact, I usually do enough writing during December to cover my company blog all the way through the end of January freeing up more of my time to work on other projects.
A Great Time to Sharpen Your Real Estate Marketing Tools
It’s also the perfect time to knock out some things that I’ve meant to get to for a while like revamping my website by changing over to a new theme with responsive capability. This means that when it will be user-friendly on all devices including desktops, tablets, and smartphones. Have you ever gone to a website on your smartphone and you can only view a small portion of it? It’s very frustrating… you have to manually scroll over to see the information one tiny section at a time. Not only that, but the new Google algorithm “Hummingbird” is supposedly going to start penalizing websites that aren’t mobile-friendly moving into 2014.
Thank Your Real Estate Clients From 2013
Working as full-time Orlando Realtors, we depend on our clients for 100% of our income. I think it’s very important to reach out to those people that have bought and sold properties through us during the past year. Not just so that they refer their friends and family to us but because it’s just the right thing to do. After all, if it wasn’t for our clients, we wouldn’t be able to survive.
That being said, I would to thank all of our clients from this past year for choosing https://orlandorealtyconsultants.com/ and putting your faith in us to handle one of the most important transactions of your life. Thanks to you it’s been a fantastic year for us. It’s been our pleasure to serve you.
