21. 3 areas Bridge Builders can help Increase Facetime with key agents Brand agents as experts Grow and Empower YOUR Team

22. Increase Facetime with key agents Schedule a monthly meeting with your top producing agent’s teams and provide/discuss these materials.* Schedule a monthly webinar where you can go through some of the most important slides Send them out to perspective agents with your contact information (email blast) * Sample curriculum and “how to” guide for running a Market Expert class will be provided after webinar.

23. Brand them as experts Key infographics for them to use in marketing (postcards, email blasts, etc.) Handouts (in color) for them to use in buyer presentations and listing opportunities Scripts for them to use when discussing the market with their clients. Materials for them to use in online lead opportunities “Keep in Touch” materials to send out to past transactions to show them how well they've done in their investment

24.
