RELATIONSHIP MARKETING foster loyalty, trust, and a long-term partnership with your clients From NAR’s Quick Stats - 39% of sellers who used a real estate agent found their agents through a referral by friends or family - Sellers who say they definitely would use same agent again: 69% - But only 24% used the agent they previously worked with to buy or sell a home when sur- veyed. Perhaps, clients are still very happy with their agent immediately following a successful sale, but a few years later — when it’s time for another transaction — the agent hasn’t kept in touch and the client gets referred to a different agent. Don’t lose the clients you’ve already won.
