Mitch Ribak spoke to the Barrys on Real Estate Radio USA last Friday. Mitch started as an agent in 2001, opened Tropical Realty in 2005, and has grown his business to close 180 transactions, during the first six months of 2008, in a down real estate market.
Mitch looks for newer real estate agents, who are personable, with a strong work ethic for his team. He plugs them into his 100mphmarketing software after driving prospective buyers to his website from various pay-per-click campaigns. 100% of his buyer leads come from the internet (his referrals come from original internet leads).
Mitch will be opening membership in the E-Homes Realty Network later this week. What is the eHomes Realty Network?
Very simply, it’s a membership that gives independent Real Estate Brokerages the ability to have the same tools and training that the Big Franchises have for one very low monthly membership fee. It’s your Franchise without a Franchise!
We started eHomes Realty Network after realizing that most Independent Brokers don’t have the resources, the knowledge or the time to test and determine which products will work best for their companies. It has also become clear that most Independents don’t have any formal training programs for their Agents.
If this sounds like an “Unchained” idea, it is. Mitch is offering the national exposure, training, and masterminding, to independent agents (and brokers) for forty bucks a month. He has plans for an updated e-designation for network members. This is what Sean Purcell calls “disbrokeration” at its finest.
Tomorrow (Tuesday), Mitch and I will be hosted by Home Gain on their first “Ask the Experts” segment at 10:00 AM (PDT). There will be over 250 real estate professionals attending the webinar. There is no charge for the webinar and you can register here. I’ll be talking about mortgage financing but Mitch will talk about how to drive traffic to your website.
PS: If you’re wondering why Mitch calls his software 100mphmarketing, you gotta hear him talk. Listening to Mitch talk about internet marketing is like trying to take a sip from a fire hydrant; he gives THAT much good information. Bring a pen Read more
