Every time I see the average real estate professional (realtor, investor, mortgage broker, etc…) using the same dinosaur marketing techniques that their former consultants beat into them, I wonder if they enjoy wasting money and getting crappy results. It’s undeniable that this economic recession is making it hard for for many people in many areas of life. In fact, consumers are not responding to the traditional forms of advertising like before. Eric Hoffer once stated, “In times of change, the learners will inherit the earth while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists!” In a nutshell, it comes down to adaptability. If you are not adaptable and continue to fight the current technological marketing trends, your real-estate business is certain to become extinct.
