Bird Dog Marketing Plan

In order to Succeed in Real Estate Bird Dogs Need a Marketing Plan

Now that you have a serious interest in becoming a bird dog, you must think about some of the things that are going to make you successful as a new investor. One of your main goals should be different strategies to attract motivated seller leads but in order to get the seller leads, your marketing has be map out down to a science.

You can shoot from the hip if you are better working on your toes however the best way to measure you marketing success would be to know the numbers. Here are some of the things you should know about your motivated seller marketing plan:

Where your leads come from?
The amount of prospects you need to reach to get a lead.
Total leads that come in every week and month.
Amount of quality leads.
The number of leads we actually close.
Closed Deals ratio to qualified leads.
Your profit rate from each seller lead.
The cost for each seller lead.

If you don’t have much money for marketing, then you would need to put a value on your time. You will also need to spend more time on your marketing when you are using less money to find motivated sellers. You can’t cheap skate your way through real estate if you want to become successful. Everything takes either time or money and for maximum profits you should balance both.

From the information above if you know it cost you $5 per lead whether in time or money you want to be sure you get a return on your marketing so your profit lead should be at least $5 per lead. Meaning you the revenue generated from each lead should be $10. You will also learn how many leads on average it takes to get a deal and how many deals it takes to close one. Let’s face it, some deals won’t make it to closing because no one thinks it’s a good deal, there might be a lien or judgment or there could be inspection issues.

Once you get your marketing plan in order you will be able to see what activities give you the best return and those will be the activities you naturally shift too.

Your monthly plan should include:

Your net income goal.
Your goal for a number of leads.
Goal for visiting a house to take pictures and get more information.
The amount of closings you want.
Average net income from each closing.
The number of prospects you need to contact to reach your goal.
A detailed plan outlining the activities you need to do so you can reach your goals.

You always want to have a clue of what you need to do to reach your monthly goals of generating motivated sellers leads each and every month.

Marketing is a numbers game and succeeding at real estate is to know the proper numbers. With knowledge of the numbers and the activities it takes to get a motivated seller needs you single-handedly take gambling from the equation.

Look for Motivated Seller Leads with Equity

United States

Before the mortgage meltdown, the same goal that was drilled in beginning real estate investors heads was to look for motivated seller leads. During that time motivated sellers were very elusive and if you found one then you struck gold. Those types of leads could have made you bundle back then when things were really good.

Now that the market has crashed in most cities across the country, you have more motivated sellers than there ever were. There are sellers right now that would give you their homes and pay you take them off of the hands. The problem now is, now one really wants majority of the motivated seller deals because they are worthless.

It’s plain and simple that the motivated seller leads now aren’t the same quality they were 5 years ago or even 3 years ago. The majority of those leads where the seller is begging someone to take their property is a pot of fools gold. Most of those deals have no equity, the payments are priced out of the market and they are behind on their mortgages.

If you are into short sales, then those deals could be a goldmine, but short sales are very time consuming and you have to tend to them like a toddler. You can’t just submit paperwork to a lender and expect them to follow up with you in a timely manner no matter how complete your package is set in order. A short sale requires attention and really too much attention based on the potential of striking the deal that is profitable for an investor. Then the lenders came up with all of the clauses that keep you from reselling the property for 30 days and so on while FHA requires you to do a ton of work only to profit 13% of the resell price. So unless you plan on holding a short sale deal for years then they are out of the question.

Pre-foreclosures used to be a good source of motivated sellers because there weren’t a lot of homeowners going through foreclosures. The fewer the foreclosures meant the more stable market values were and now that just isn’t the case.

So the lesson of this writing is to let you know, when you go out to bird dog or buy properties for your own personal use, don’t waste time on the old thought of finding deals. You should still look for motivated sellers, just make sure there is enough equity in the deal and that it is a good deal.

Craigslist is a Great Tool to Use to Bring in Motivated Seller Leads

Craigslist is a Great Way to Generate Leads

For those of you that are new to the real estate arena the only way to survive in the housing market is to have a steady flow of leads whether the leads are buyers or sellers. Either of the leads are the cornerstone to making it to cashing checks but leads that are worth money aren’t that easy to find. Most real estate investors starting out try looking to the internet for REO deals, not knowing that those types of deals require a cash deposit and a quick closing with no contingencies. So if the investor doesn’t have cash or credit then REO’s isn’t the best way to start out in the real estate industry.

Plus REOs don’t classify as a motivated sellers. Of course banks want to sell properties but they will list their properties with real estate agents and most will allow their properties to sit on the market for x amount of days before they decide to lower their asking price. So the bottom line is if you don’t have the cash or credit, don’t start out trying to target REO properties as a source for deals so you will need to look in different areas to find motivated sellers that want to do something about their home now and that source is Craigslist.

Every time I post an ad on Craigslist, I get a lead from a sellers and sometimes 2 leads to 5 leads depending on the ad that I place. I am about to come out with a tutorial that shows bird dogs how to use Craigslist to bring in multiple leads within hours of sitting down out your computer. Our goal is for you to bring us every lead that you can find and you will get paid lucratively so will we, that is why we are willing to provide free training. We can see the potential in providing free training versus charging you a fee for our knowledge. The things that we are going to teach you will cost at least $1,000 with self proclaimed gurus, but not with us because we know what we teach generates money and we will rather make continuous money from every bird dog instead of charging a fee that is valued a lot less.

Join our email list so we can send out an email informing you of the training when it comes available.
