You are a Real Estate Agent in The United States. The country has the has the highest number of licensed Agents and highest priced homes in the world. This is a simple fact of the current situation you are in. Chasing buyers and making offers on homes that have a low probability of getting accepted is an extremely stressful job. The market is extremely competitive and relentless. Centralizing your business and keeping it hyper local will give you not only more time back but more money due to leverage. From a competition standpoint, there are literally thousands of licensed agents in every city throughout the United States. This includes the place you currently rely on to be the “go to” local real estate professional.

The only real estate brand or designation a homeowner cares about is the one that will accomplish 3 things:

#1 they will list their home with a realtor they like, know, and trust.

#2 they will list their home with the agent that leaves the perception on the listing appointment that they can sell their home for the most money with the most favorable terms.

#3 they will list their home with an agent’s brand name they can remember, sounds familiar, or implies “local expert at marketing and selling their cities lifestyle”.

Solution = exclusive branding as the local area expert for your city.

Your exclusive surrogate identity is backed by a powerful local marketing platform for DLE members only. DLE not only brands you as the only true local area expert, it gives you access to a variety of marketing products to help you acquire more listings & integrate into your existing business model. This private designation gives you a brand that will allow you to dominate your local market.

Are you going on a listing appointment and interviewing with Sellers who are also talking to multiple other local listing agents? How can you win the listing while competing against the potentially better or more well-known agents in your area? How do you set yourself apart and have a memorable brand that your potential clients will remember and trust, long after you have left their home? A brand that provides value and displays you will get the client the most money from the sale of their home?

Your meeting with the Sellers at the listing appointment may potentially be a waste of time if you don’t set yourself a part from the other Realtors and local experts. The value you bring to the transaction may get lost in all those interviews.

A competing Realtor may a have his/her signs up around town. Maybe on your potential listing’s street. Maybe EVEN next door. Getting the listing maybe a huge challenge to say the least in these situations. This could result and an lost opportunity for you and your clients. Those Sellers may end-up listing with someone that’s inferior to you.
Someone that may not take the time and focus that you would put into your clients, and in the end they miss-out on the value you have to offer them. Not to mention, no commission. The implications are far reaching and frustrating to say the least.
