That’s right…more than 6000 of you are now doing The Blitz and from what I’m hearing, it’s beginning to feel like the new normal!

Yes, I know it’s not easy to get out there every day, but the key is to keep your focus on each day’s sprint. You’ve heard it before but it’s worth repeating; if you want to make your business big, make your focus small. So this week is all about focusing in on phone calls. I’ve been reading your comments on our website and yes, last week’s Pop-Bys tend to lead to calls and even some notes!

Dialing for Dollars is going to demand you use that great piece of technology that’s never far from our side these days so get with your Blitz Buddy and practice the Dialogues we’ve prepared for you. Launch Week Two and keep up the momentum I’m hearing about from so many of you. Here are some great stories from the frontlines:

• “I started on Thursday since I just came back from my holidays…and was able to do 32 Pop-Bys in three days! That's on top of my non-negotiable minimum of five pop-bys per week. With that I got three referrals!”
  
  
• “36 Pop-Bys, three referrals, one tour of homes set up, one listing appointment made, and three potential investors for commercial project.”
  
  
• “Wow! What a week! I have done 26 Pop-Bys, added 4 good people to my database, 1 new listing…”
  
  
• “Well, to date I have done 35 Pop-Bys, got two new purchase referrals, met two new business referrals…and just ran out of Pop-Bys. It has been exhilarating!!”
  

I’ll be hearing from our Business Coaches through the week on your progress. Don’t forget to keep them up to date so they can encourage and support your efforts in The Blitz!

It’s a good life!

Top of the month everyone! The Blitz is finally here and almost 6000 of you nationwide are Blitzing your way toward a great first quarter.

Joe and I have thought the details of this program through and now that it’s Pop-By week, it’s time to get out there and get face-to-face with your best clients. Yes it may be winter out there but what better way to connect with clients than to drop in and see them on a chilly January morning? We know this is the toughest week in the program but it’s time to tough it out and get your business in shape.

• Today and tomorrow you’ll be Popping-By 7 A+ clients…past clients, current clients or existing relationships. Give yourself a couple of hours and get after it.

• Keep up the momentum and do another 7 Pop-Bys on Wednesday and Thursday to past clients. There’s a goldmine waiting; are you mining?

• Friday is the day to connect with your Business Owners – 7 of them! It’s a great way to generate referrals and build the relationships that will sustain you through this market.

I’m so proud to see so many of our Members signed up for The Blitz. You’re not just changing the face of real estate; you’re recession-proofing your business at a time when many are waiting for proof of the recession.

It’s a good life!

Hope you had a great holiday and welcome to 2009.

2009 will prove to be a happier New Year for some more than others…for those who have recognized that this market has changed, for those who understand they can’t wait for the customer to contact them and that we’ve got to contact the customer.
