Most agents & teams struggle with having too many systems and don't even fully know the extent of what damages it can inflict on their business.
Here's a quick review of the Top 3 Time Wasters You Must Know About. You may have accepted this reality out of convenience or lack of knowledge, but it doesn't change the fact that it is hurting your business. It may have been "under the radar" before but we're here to shed the light on it so you can fix it and set yourself up for growth and success.
Here are the Top 3 Profit Killers (aka "Slow Leaks"):
- Re-entering same data into multiple systems.
This is called "System Hopping". Doesn't have the same pizaz as "bar hopping". System hopping is much less glamourous and is a complete waste of time. This is like having a car that only takes you from Point A to B. If you want to go to Point C you have to drive a different car. That would be insane, yet many do that for their business. This wastes tons of time that can be spent selling homes and talking to clients. - Manual Tracking
A sure fire sign is if you have Excel Spreadsheets that you are having to manually enter data into for tracking your business. If your current CRM system is not giving you the information you basic need and is causing you to duplicate yourself, look for a better solution. We have over 20 different reports on all different aspects of your business that have saved clients over 80 hours a month. This type of efficiency even replaced the need to hiring another assistant. - Paper Checklist
I am always shocked at how many are still using a paper checklist. This is exteremly cubmersome and inefficient. It is very prone to things slipping through the crack and also is not scalable or portable. This will limit your ability to grow and you will be extremely vulnerable to changes in team roles and structure. This is a very dangerous place to be.
