Business Membership
By far the best bang for your buck when targeting the Real Estate Professional for your product or service in the Kansas City Metro would be a Business Membership with MidAmerica Association of Real Estate Investors. The business membership includes all the access to our website and all the discounts that our Standard Investor Membership. However, unlike the Investor Membership that is for the person, the Business Membership follows the Business. So as a Business you receive two guest passes to every monthly meeting (20+ meetings a year) that can be used by the same two people or interchanged among several people each month.

Select one way to market your business that you are comfortable with, implement it, systematize it. Then add another one, get it working well and on a system. Then add another till you have at several marketing methods that are continually generating new business. 7. Follow Up Most small business owners are great at following up on a business lead that is going to give them business right now. For example a client calls a contractor to ask them to do a bid for a rehab job. But not many follow just to build a relationship with that person who may be your next customer or who may refer you a lot of business. 8. Get a Marketing Buddy Remember marketing it like meeting that New Years Resolutionyou work really hard the first week and then let it slack off more and more till you have to get in to summer clothes and you have another heavy week of activity. Instead get a buddy and work with them to determine a marketing plan for the next week for both of you. Then hold each other accountable. 9. Scripts and Systems It always helps to know exactly step by step what you are going to do and say in your marketing. You may want to check with in your industry if there are training materials that can help you know what to say . . . scripts . . . that you can practice till you know exactly what to say when. And create a system for each step of the way. 10. Schedule it You need to embrace your scheduler. Mark off blocks of time that add up to about 30% of your work week, just for marketing activities. When you are first starting out it may be more than 30%, but as you perfect your techniques you may find ways to automate some tasks and save time.
