#4 Revamp your CRM

Try new features or consider a different tool that meets your needs. At ATRE, we're always measuring the success rate of CRM.

Once you have a marketing theme, run with it! An automated marketing tool is great for scheduling your posts or content during prime times. By planning ahead, you’ll stay consistent without the stress! We recommend trying Sked, a social media content manager that schedules your content in advance!
#6 Schedule your work hours and off hours
Real estate can be a 24/7 job. You can provide the best service to your clients when you are prepared. Put time on your calendar to schedule work and personal time. Our team uses Google calendars to schedule meetings and block out time. Also, email away messages are great for keeping staff and clients in the loop for when we're off the clock.
