Recap You learned how to create Lists and filter your news feed for them We talked about how to engage your referral partners business as your business You saw an easy way to find new prospect referral partners and engage them in a B2B approach We talked about having a Purposeful Plan to Implement with the Daily 10 and the Posting for Greatness method

What’s next? What to say and do for the Daily 10 What to post for the Posting for Greatness How to automatically get content sent to you How much time to devote to this strategy

The Daily 10 Create more than 1 list Liking, Commenting and sharing does NOT take a long time Key is don’t get distracted (that’s why you create the list’s) Example of a referral partners group of lists; Current Partners (A agents) Partner Prospects (B and C agents) Target Partners (agents you want to work with)

The Daily 10 Current Partners has 8 agents – like, comment, or share with each of them Partner Prospects has 20 agents – like, comment, or share with 10 Monday, then the other 10 Tuesday, then the first 10 again Wednesday……….. Target Partners – 40 agents – focus on 10 at a time, be consistent for 30 days, if no social engagement focus on a different person on that list

The Daily 10 Comment on their photos (personal and business) Congratulate them on their achievement (especially the kids) Answer questions they ask Like their photos Like their status updates (even if it’s goofy) Like their check-ins**

The Daily 10 Share items that are not personal (DO NOT share their personal photos, but like and or comment on them) ****Share their listings**** ****Share Open House Info**** Share items they have shared, post a comment of thanks and that you will be sharing

The Daily 10 Be consistent!!!!!! People who regularly like, comment and post feel closer to those who engage with them as regularly The network of friends will notice it also Make sure your profile lets them in on what you do

Posting for Greatness Takes the guess work out of what to post Takes the time wasting out of what to post Helps ensure you will stay consistent socially Allows you to get people to engage directly with you
