rhinda duffy in atlanta

yes.

She has a local radio show and does lots of web stuff. She has built a reputation in Atlanta and I'm told most of her listings come from referrals now But basically I think she built the business the old fashion way of lots of calling and built up her listing inventory. I believe she used to really focus on FSBOs when she first started.

I wouldn't look to "systems" or "seminars" or "playbooks" or "coaching" or "game changers" or any other such nonsense. None of it will work, except for the hustlers selling you the nonsense.

If you want to know what marketing methods are used by Duffy, or anyone else who is successful, pull up a slew of their listings and follow along. If you see something good, copy it to start out, then figure out how to improve it. If you see something bad, delete it from your program. At some point, you will have to come up with your own original creative ideas to supplement what you have copied/modified.

And while you are doing all of this, make sure you are in close contact with all present clients, making sure they are taken care of to perfection.

If you combine rigid attention to current clients with creative marketing that is not duplicated by others around you, you will never need to worry about buying garbage from the legions of two-bit hustlers who prey on real estate agents who often seem to have a penchant for dreaming instead of doing.

I know of Rhonda Duffy through her local listings. Just curious as to how others know her as far away as Toronto. Does she have a program of some sort?

Yes she sells an affiliate program for her system. A google search of flat fee and discount listings brings up her name over and over again. That is how I found her company a few years ago.
The website says that she has affiliates inn 54 markets.

Her system, from my understanding, trains you in exactly what to do to make the same kind of money she does. I've thought about buying it several times but it's pretty expensive so I haven't done it yet and not sure that I will.

They use Social media Marketing and Social Network marketing. This is very effective in marketing their real estate site.

How little does she charge?

I looked at her website, rainmakerrealty.net. She charges $15,000 for live training or $6,500 for a self study course.

There's a list of Rainmaker licensees on her website so I looked at the MLS for stats on the licensee in my area. They currently have 8 listings and have sold 2 houses since January 2010. Three of the listings have been on the market since 2009.

That's interesting info. Goes to show you can get training but it depends on what you do with it.

I know a lot agents who do "training" but then never do what they learned to do in the training. While it doesn't look good for Duffy, it's not necessarily Duffy's fault.

No No! I meant how little does she charge for commish? She's flat fee after all. It's no secret if you advertise a low commission you will get calls and listings but how much do you net and how hard must you work to earn it. If she has to work a a ton of extra hours to produce high volume, well I feel this is just a stupid business plan. The fee this person charges realtors is probably more than what she gets for selling houses. This says slot.

She has been around for awhile.A lot of her listings expire.

If you take upfront money for cheaper than a FSBO company then you have low motivation to sell the property.

Not my cup of tea.

She charges $495 up front for a listing agreement and a sign.

You have to rent the lockbox and produce fliers, interior signs, etc.

I believe she also charges per hour if you need help beyond the basics.
