Highest Dollar-Per-Hour tasks you would hire someone for?
Hey BP Agents & Investors!
This is the slow(ish) season for me as a real estate agent. As we all know, a big part of continuing to grow & stay successful in sales is generating new leads & opportunities. I have personally seen success in sending letters (handwritten cards), making cold calls, and knocking on doors. As my time becomes more valuable, I am looking to hire someone to help me with these tasks. My goal is to be efficient with their time and only try to have them do the highest dollar-per-hour tasks in terms of generating opportunities.
My question for you is:
If you were going to hire an hourly assistant to generate you more opportunities, what tasks would you have them focus on? Writing letters, making calls, reaching out to past clients, knocking on doors.. etc
Also wishing you all a happy holiday! Thank you in advance for all of your thoughts. I look forward to the discussion!

Hire out whatever it is that you either hate doing, or aren't good at. Stay in your golden zone, stuff you can do well, like doing, and/or are good at.
Delegating out the stuff you don't like and/or aren't good at, and focusing on what you're good at and like doing, will keep you positive, which will lead to more business.
To wit... total post-close compliance packages I have personally worked on packaging in the year 2019: Zero.
