slow this morning, what's up??

You posted at 9:38 in the morning. Are you really concerned?

Yep only 7 so far...........

only 5 so far... usually swamped with blasts at this hour

usually dont get slammed till the afternoon here

I'm slammed and have more than I can handle for the next few days. I'll take it though.

Momday mornings are typically slow for me. Its the beginning of the month. By midweek you probably will be up to your eyeballs in reports due. Enjoy the clam before the storm.

10 so far.....half way to our daily quota.....

Like to brag about that an awful lot, dont ya?

brag? huh? oh ok sorry i wont post any longer didnt mean to upset u..........

Didnt upset me...just seems that the bulk of your posts speak to doing 20 orders a day....

Today, I got 5 from non-credible companies that I am not going to do anything for. There subject lines always seem like complete desperation. So therefore today, I've received no business. I guess there is always tommorow. Does anyone get a lot of volume from LSI. On the bright hand side, Tracy Chapman was just on the radio, so not all is lost. The script is playing now so at least I can enjoy the time that I'm wasting.

5 for me so far...

Hey Andrea

Stop bragging ! lol

Just kidding , I hope you do 500 orders a day because that means the rest of us can aspire to do that amount too...

TGH

Evaluations Solutions contaceted me for 12 bpos if only fiserv or lsi would do that, i could make some money

I think theghosthorse is taking all my orders today! I only have one measly order so far.

I'm up to 6 now!! Hehe!

eml slow where I am... they usually dominate with orders.

EML is my favorite too. I've only gotten one order from them today. Hope it picks up. Maybe while the game is on tonight people in my area by be engrossed.

I know.. Usually monday morning is flooded with blasts. I did pick up 3 more. I try only to do interiors with them. Did I read someone got a $3300 bi-weekly check from EML? how did they do that? How many helpers do they have? geez..

Only 1 EML today so far. click click click click.

Just grabbed 2 LandAm.

I think the fella that pulls all them EML orders has 2 full time helpers..btw...lol

Just grabbed an EML.......total of 2 so far

I hit that number with EML this last two weeks, but it was them and them only. I did not do any orders for other providers the last couple of weeks......they are slow today. I only have two from them...grabbed one from MSV...

EML has been posting stuff, but its a ways out...30-40 miles, not that hungry yet. I would like to have a helper or two. I would approach this all together differently if I did.

smg

Back in the old days I would pull orders run out and take pix, stay up to 2am doing ht eorders then repeat....didnt have much of a life but I was doing pretty good. My partner in real estate investing kept telling me "hire people to help and you will double what you are doing now" I didnt listen to him for a longggg time, but once I began hring people to help , my BPO business doubled AND it gave me more time for my REO and Real Estate investments...wished I listened to him earlier. I look at this as BIG business now...I have no no idea where we rank vis a vis other AZ Bpo-teams , but I imagine we are up there. The very fact that I am typing this reply and not sloggin away at orders is the result of hiring people...if you are going to take your BPO biz to the next level..u need to get some good helpers. IMHO

My biweekly checks for EML are usually right around $ 3,000, sometimes more. But I work almost exclusively for EML, I take orders with other companies here and there if EML is slow.

I don't have any helpers, I take my own pictures and put everything in myself and I still have a life. Most of my orders are in the same area though, so I have 10 or 12 orders within a few miles.

I am up to 4 orders now, 2 rush.

Hopefully it will continue!

Good posts you two.....agree with Ghosthorse....PHX RE, I am right where you e, most of my gigs are for EML, I am usually 'tween 2900 and 3200 and have no help. I may just bump things up....

EML is one of our bigger clients.... I think they rank #3 as far as monthly gross goes. Havent had a big giant EML blast in a while..I like to pick and choose from 50 orders or so, but am always foaming at the mouth becuase I reach my limit....am always looking for another 20 more...lol

LOL! Same here! I get really antsy when I have reached my limit and there are still a lot of orders. That's when I start regretting that I took the ones way out in East Mesa, should have left them to theghosthorse

A weekly income of $1,500 a week doing BPOs FT is definitely realistic, and after a period of time will seem like an underachievement. I am very impressed that you are making that kind of money via one company. You must have a high acceptance limit, or perhaps not one at all, as many are capped after 2,5,7,10, 15 etc in their queue at any given time.

While I am doing just as well doing everything myself like you, I have that kind of income stream with several companies and not just one. It’s too scary to put too many eggs in one basket.

Very nice job tho, congrats!

Hell PhoenixRE

I got 2 in PHX and Glendale...wanna trade??

I think the most that I've ever seen blasted at one time in my area was about 15.

Thanks! I appreciate your kind comments.

I have a limit of 15. On days like this I worry about putting all my eggs in one basket but on the other hand, EML has been really great to work with, I rarely have any QC issues with them which really cuts down on the time I spend on each order. Although I have gotten quite a few of those reconciliation order reviews lately.

I get orders from other companies but usually I am just so busy with EML that I don't have the time to check other websites for available orders or even check my email. Although I am sometimes annoyed with the constant click, click, click I really like the Find Work feature at EML.

I ain't going to Glendale, Ghosthorse!

I got one in Scottsdale, 1 in South Phoenix and 2 in Mesa. I mostly work in Maricopa but desperate times call for desperate messures. After clicking all morning and not getting anything I probably would have started to accept Glendale soon.

I am sure tomorrow we'll be slammed again!

Just grabbed 3 more from an unnamed source.

Theres a reason why I get so many orders and it aint because of my good looks and charm. Heres an example.

Last nite (around 5pm AZ time) I got 7 rush orders (yes I know it was Sunday)from my largest client. What did I do? Did I sit around and watch the end of the football game I was watching...nope (anyways the Giants were on the early game). I ran out before the sun set took the pix and got them orders in about 3 hours after I recevied them.

Who do you think that client is going to ask to do rush orders for them next time they get them? Some new BPOer or MOI ????

It might SEEM like bragging to some but I have worked my [censored] off to get where I am today....and my next goal is to double my exisitng business by the end of 2010....we'll see....

I thought you was in Phoenix not godforsaken Maricopa...I havent gone down that ways in a while......... Still its not as bad as my other favoite spots. Tonopah, Eloy , Superior, Black Canyon City and my very all time favoite.....Globeeeeeeeee yyuck

I don't think your braggin, just spewing. You've made more posts today than most of us need to see. If you're so busy with orders maybe you better get working. Spare us- we don't care what you got going on or say you do.

Kind of how I am feeling. Tpically, Monday is my slowest day and I putz around the house....but now after seeing tht today is a bit slower, I may grab some in areas that I typically would not go to...I am not certain what or if I have a limit....I have seen times where I have 15 in QC and ten in my queue...

Some of you folks on here are downright cranky. You better move to a sunnier clime...it might help you with your disposition there.......

The only bpo's(cma) I like doing now........are the one's for my listings or my out of state investors.

Sunnier climate is right. Today was one of the first days with sun - after 8 days of raining on and off. Thanks for the posts - I like hearing how other agents work their business. I am with Call Today - the only bpos or cmas I do are for companies that give me listings - or could give me listings. It has worked - I have picked up 2 more companies this year that I now list for and since my other companies are slow - I am even with where I was last year. Might have to reconsider the bpo only side though - we can not get sheriff's deeds here so all the stuff I have in contract is on hold til they file - I have had to resell three of them cuz the buyers won't wait for the deed. BPOs seem a lot more dependable at the moment.

and you get all these orders by clicking find work??

Are you getting all of those orders by just click find work?
