Show your clients what you know – and how you can help them – and they’ll gladly show you their money later on.•Public speaking – This may not seem like a natural offline marketing strategy, but it has potential you may not have considered.

I am interested in using this method for clients and want to be certain that it is executed with the highest degree of excellence.

This Guy lost a potential client.

I'd love to ditch some of the low paying, but reliable clients, and have enough from real estate alone.

That is exactly what I would suggest to any of my clients that are looking to put in more than one offer.

I truly wish clients understood everything that goes into factoring a rate.

Again, some agents are lazy and don't follow through but these agents don't last in the business because clients don't refer them to friends and family.Question #2--Calling agents and making your own appointments with them does not obligate you to use them but you should be upfront with them that you will be representing yourself.

Thanx Ryan,I have occasionally picked up leads by mentioning to potential clients/sellers/fsbos that I'm a member of Biggerpockets and intend to mention his or her property on the site.

I haven't used it for some time but used it when I was in the publishing business to manage about 400 advertising sales clients.

That doesn't mean I won't advise a client not to get into a mortgage I really don't think they can afford.
