Peter Danaher, with Tropical Shores Realty in Boca Raton, Florida, recently told us that he did the Getting Listings Program and "in eight months it brought me five transactions, $55,000 in gross commissions. It cost me about $320 to mail 1,000 postcards per month, a better than $21-to-$1 return.

"Here’s the power of just one yellow postcard from the Getting Listings Program:

"I was contacted by an attorney who’d received my postcard and I listed his house. We sold that house, and helped the attorney buy a house. Actually, the attorney and another buyer were fighting over a house and the attorney ended up buying it.

"The other buyer was impressed with me as a By Referral Only consultant and asked me to list their house. Then I helped them buy another house – five sides from one postcard!

"Before I joined the community my business was OK, but I had no structure. By Referral Only helped me structure my business with the Before, During and After Units, and improve my skills so I can survive in any market. I love the fact that everything is right there at your fingertips.

"I’m looking for a good 2009 and a better 2010!"
