I get most of my leads from personal contacts like next Thursday when the Business After Hours will be at MY office.  I enjoy networking with others and especially my agents.  Secondarily, Internet marketing through my website leads to untold numbers of calls and emails for information.  The key is FOLLOWUPS.  If you don't do it in a timely way, the lead will become stale.  

Bob, this sounds like one of the Utah students!  Just kidding.  I generate most of my from Open Houses and from staying in touch with my favorite past clients.

What kind of leads are you looking for VB?

Much of your business is a bit different than a typical agent.

For me, I get my best results when I pick up the phone and ask clients and colleagues for referrals.

I get leads from my website.

Robert 'VEGAS BOB' Swetz the best way to generate leads is by referrals. 

Most of mine have come from friends and listing signs.  A couple from ZTR, but they didn't turn into anything beyond the one house.

following up with past clients.  

Work my people I have done business with before.

Give them what they are looking for.  A web site with good information and an accurate property search.

Face to face encounters with others and asking for referrsls

Robert,

It depends on your marketplace.  Some of our clients get leads from localism posts, other clients are born schmoozers they know everyone in town.  It also depends on your personality, your niche, and when that is lined up you have a strategy.  A

It depends on the niche you are going after.  First time buyers, VA, equestrian, out of town second home buyers, luxury, sellers, ect.  

ours are from many different sources and methods..... many are referrals from past clients....

Asking for referrals is one of the best and my other  one comes from marketing my listings

We do whatever it takes to bring in the leads.  Door knocking, open houses, interenet traffic.  Our company also prides itself on being innovative and knowing what is coming to the market.  I have been abel to convert leads that were told they could not buy yet, only because I had options.

Online leads, referrals, telephone, brokerage, SOI, etc.

Regularly contact vendors you refer to and ask that they return the favor by referring some of their clients to you.

Your best and most loyal fans are your best referral source, you know that:) . Yet, my current priority to create a 'working' website.

sphere of influence.

Face to face networking.

Referrals and marketing.

It depends where you are in your career, 1 yr, 5yr, 10+ years.

What you have the most of, time or money.

The resources with which you have to work. Lists, contacts, associations, collaborative partners.

Finally, your business plan identifies WHO your preferred customer is.

With that information valid direction can be given, otherwise is will be simply a 'try this' list. Bandit sign are still effective for a very specific market segment.

#1 is referrals and #2 is my blog lastly but just as good is calls from my current listings, 

The majority of my leads come from my past clients, residents in my market area and my blogging efforts.

Prospecting with previous clients, on line web site lead generation. Direct mail. 

Website leads, open houses & most importantly, referrals.

Prospecting.  Beating the bushes.

Our website makes our phone Ring!

Good morning Vegas Bob. The majority of my leads come from my blogging efforts, they end up going to my website and then to me.

I press the flesh and attend real estate functions.
