I am writing this from the home of a cousin of my wife’s, on Christmas morning. It’s a beautiful day. Outside I see golden fields with snow-clad mountains in the distance. The dogs are romping on the yard, enjoying the warmth.
?
It’s a good time for reflection and gratitude. I hope you have had a wonderful Christmas, and the New Year brings prosperity and success to your life and those close to you.

Enjoy this article I wrote last year at this time. And take advantage of my offer.

“You bought this property sight unseen – based on a show you watched?!” ?
Can’t read the full email –?click here for the online version. ?
I’m writing this week’s missive from the rooftop of the condo building we’re staying at this week. I can see the ocean a short distance to the south. My wife is contemplating doing some laps in the infinity pool and my daughter is taking a siesta.?
?
Yesterday was the shortest day of the year (for us North Americans) – thus every day henceforth gets a little longer. That’s a comforting thought since we will be heading to the cold of Alberta next week.
?
Today, however, I thought I’d reflect a bit on the year that was and some of the business lessons gained from our travels.
?
Growth for any business, large or small, only happens if at least one of five key fundamental items improves. I’ve written about this profit formula many times.
?
The first key item is Leads. All things being equal – you will and can grow your business if you can generate more leads. Unfortunately, this is also the most expensive and time-consuming component. To do it well, you best have a Unique Selling Proposition or Market Dominating Position in addition to mastering a medium to get your message to the right target group of buyers.
?
We met one such fellow who nailed this (partly by accident) on the small island of Utila, just north of the Honduran mainland.
?
He managed to get US customers to buy property, sight unseen! In a foreign country.?
?
How?
?
He got himself featured, not once, but many times, on an HBO show called “Caribbean Life”, where he had the opportunity to show and highlight all the benefits of living on and around the island where he was set up.
?
Today, not only is he the principal realtor (and firm) selling property, but he has also created a construction and property management firm that is building and maintaining homes from many of these original clients. Talk about using not only good lead generation but achieving additional transactions and larger average transactions from the same client pool.?
?
Oh, and he built a small marina, condo-like boathouse so many of his customers would have a place to store and leave their boats. Naturally, there was a selling price and an on-going monthly HOA fee to maintain the premises.
?
His business is a great example of leveraging a particular medium to attract and convert the right customer.
?
He has then transitioned to serve these customers in other, complimentary ways, thus achieving both more transactions per client per year for higher average prices.
?
I’m not sure where he is with respect to profit margins but since he is the “in-demand” realtor, I am sure he is not discounting his real estate commissions. I am confident too that he is pricing his contracting services decent margins.
?
