Back in 2008, I was really struggling.


The market had crashed, people were struggling to keep their business, and I was right there with them, trying to figure out how I could stay on top of things!


I happened to pick up a book titled, “The Ultimate Sales Machine.”


One of the concepts that he taught was the Dream 100. That would be 100 people that he wanted to connect with.


Well, you know me, I didn’t stop at 100, and I made my dream 150.


I marketed intentionally to those people: I made sure that they knew who I was, and that I was there to serve them!


I committed to higher quality marketing, even as high as $10 per print item!


It was consistency that got me noticed, and that helped me build a business that I benefit from, even today!


This week on the Tip Tuesday episode of the Selling the Dream podcast, I’m here to challenge you to create your dream 150. Pick out who you want to work with, and focus on doing what it takes to make that happen!

TRANSCRIPT:

[00:00:00.390]

Today. Learn how to tap into the ultra luxury market in your backyard. Welcome to Selling the Dream. A podcast created four and five second home and resort realtor from Tom Tezak. And each week, my goal is to bring you a quick real estate tip, along with an info past interview with an industry rock star. My mission is to bring this cutting edge market five through sales and information about the latest technology. Thanks for tuning in. And remember, we're not selling real estate.

[00:00:29.160]

Selling the dream. Everybody today on Tuesday, top selling the dream. Let's talk about busting into the luxury resort and second home market. So, you know, a couple of years ago, when the market tanked in 2008, I was really struggling and I picked up a book by Chuck Holmes called The Ultimate Sales Machine, and they're in there. It was it was an older book. And he was it was an amazing book, one of my favorite books ever put in there.

[00:00:58.420]

He talked about one of the techniques that he used, and he was his dream. One hundred. And I found it fascinating that it was such a great idea. So we market regularly. We go out and we try to connect with people in our in our neighborhoods, in our communities and our resort second home communities. But what I took out of that was I want to create my dream one hundred. And for me it was my dream. One hundred and fifty.

[00:01:22.180]

And that was all of the ocean front and ultra expensive properties. I gathered all of their mailing, all of their addresses, and I created a completely unique and elaborate marketing plan to try to bust into this luxury second home market. And I know in my market that luxury market was very much protected by a handful of very small handful of realtors who dominated and controlled it. And I kept thinking, how am I going to bust into that? And so I created the Dream 100 or Dream 150 for me.

[00:01:57.520]

And with that, I developed a very intense marketing plan where I would send much more elaborate marketing pieces to each one of those owners in that district. And over the course of time and I found that I kept getting notoriety. People were noticing me. And then I got my first listing, which then allowed me to do more elaborate marketing for that listing in that community. And that elaborate listing and that marketing piece, that was a 16 page for sure with a video and DVD, just a little bit old school today, but it was able to then be put into everybody's mailboxes and they were then able to see, wow, this this agent is doing marketing in a different way, in a more aggressive format.

[00:02:45.640]

And it was just consistency. How did I do it? Well, what I did was actually went out and found a promotional products company and started to buy bigger items. And I committed to ten dollars per address for every mailing, which you might be thinking, wow, that's a lot of money.

[00:03:02.230]

But when you look at the value of the homes and the commission checks that are generated in my particular market with six million, 10 million, fifteen million dollar property, it's not that much money. And so I devised and developed a plan and I would do some corny stuff. But it worked because, again, for the for the owners that were marketing savvy, when they would get the pieces in the mail, they laugh, maybe throw it away. Some of them gave it to their realtor that they worked with and said, well, look at what this guy is doing.

[00:03:36.720]

And so I knew it was making an impact. So just think about how can you be in front of those high net worth owners and pick a small market area and just create a unique marketing campaign. I'll share a couple of things with you. I sent a yo yo and I said no matter if the market goes up or down, I always have my finger on the market, you know, just silly stuff. I sent a what was a leather man type tool with the players and the knives.

[00:04:05.530]

I said, and I sent it in a mailing tube. And so it is noisy, heavy and big. And in that letter, I said, if you're going to hire an agent, make sure they have more than one tool in their tool box. Because I found that a lot of the. Luxury agents really didn't do a lot of marketing because they figured they didn't have to. So by keying in on those owners that may have not been enamored with their agent, their agents may be gone.

[00:04:35.980]

It was such an opportunity to connect with them and have them at least give me a look. And one of the things I would say is I know you may have a primary agent that you've worked with, but please put me on your list and get another opinion. That second choice, that third opinion. That was what I was looking for because I knew that once I got in front of them, my style and technique was going to be much more elaborate than what everybody else was doing because I had a plan.

[00:05:03.340]

So you've got to create that plan to connect with them. And then once you do connect with them, then you really need to amp it up and blow their socks off with all the stuff that you're prepared to do. So just keep that in mind when you're trying to bust into that luxury market. It's tough to get there sometimes, but when you get that one opportunity, it's so important to capitalize on that. My marketing campaigns, when I first started in the luxury marketplace, were I spent a ton of money, not with the you know, I always wanted to sell the home, but it was more than that.

[00:05:39.310]

It was an investment in to my presence and to my brand to show those owners that while this is a new agent in our industry. One last tip that I want you to think about when you're selecting that top 100. If there's only one hundred or one hundred and fifty homes, you do a mall. But if there's maybe 500 and it's just not cost effective and you want to go through go through your MLS, figure out who sold the house to them, if that agent is no longer in your marketplace, maybe they've passed away.

[00:06:07.990]

They've moved on. They've retired. Look at that and maybe focus on that list of homes and homeowners, because they don't have an agent anymore. And, you know, they may not be ready to sell. But if you continue to keep in touch in front of them, putting your face and name your chuch keys in their hands when it is time for them to sell, you may have a fighting chance to be the agent that at least they call second or third or hopefully first.

[00:06:36.740]

So anyway, some ideas on how to bust into the luxury market. It is a tough spot to get into and it is an expensive place to play. You have to have the financial ability to invest in your listings, in your marketing. But the rewards are giant. So keep that in mind if you want to. If you have any questions, please post below or send me a message. You can always reach me at Tom at Tom Tezak dot com.
