MARKETING FOCUS
WELCOME TO OUR FIRST CMA A DAY CHALLENGE OF 2025!
We’re excited to kick off this powerful lead generation opportunity! With spring just around the corner, now is the perfect time to connect with potential sellers and position yourself as the go-to real estate expert in your community Over the next 30 days, we'll focus on providing value, building relationships, and generating new business—one CMA at a time!
This challenge is designed to be simple, effective, and scalable, allowing you to engage with homeowners who may be considering a move. It’s a proven prospecting strategy that will help you establish credibility and grow your pipeline.
HOW TO GET STARTED:
1.
Choose Your Target Area – Pick a neighborhood to focus on.
2 Prepare a CMA Packet – Include: 3.
Select 30 Homeowners – Use tax records to find homes that sold 5-7 years ago, OR select 30 people from your sphere of influence
A cover letter introducing yourself, explaining the enclosed market report, and providing a clear call to action
Client testimonials to build trust.
A spring maintenance checklist or tips for getting a home market-ready.
A short-form CMA (not a full CMA the goal is to spark interest and set an appointment)
4
Deliver One Packet Per Day – Consistency is key! Personally drop off or mail one CMA packet daily for the next 30 days.
Are you ready to take on the challenge and make this your best spring market yet? Let’s do this! ��
