It’s that time of year!
Girl Scout cookie season! Whether you see them at your church, at your work, around your community or they are knocking on your door, you can finally get your hands on some Thin Mints and Samoas.
I know the Girl Scouts do more than sell cookies, but isn’t that the first thing that comes to mind?
While at the grocery store the other day, I bought 4 boxes from a young lady that had set up a stand with her mother. And it got me thinking…I put out this tweet:
When A Real Estate Consumer Thinks Of You, What Comes To Mind?
Do you and your real estate business have a brand, an image or a unique selling proposition that is so strong, that when someone thinks of you, they zone in on what you do? What if I asked your sphere of influence? If I asked the top 100 people in your database what they think of when I say your name, what will be their response?
What if we asked that group about the Girl Scouts? I bet they would say cookies!!!
Here is what is interesting to me about Girl Scout cookies. They don’t advertise. They don’t have a marketing campaign. They aren’t utilizing social media to listen, engage, and connect with their audience. Yet, when we think Girl Scouts, we think cookies.
What can you learn from the Girls Scouts and apply to your real estate business?
How can you be more like the Girl Scouts?

"If you aren't getting Darin's daily email, you are missing out." -- Chris Smith, Inman News Chief Evangelist
I wanted to start to build a team and with Darin's coaching I have added 2 full
time buyers agents and a virtual assistant. We are getting so organized
and now I am able to prospect for listings like I should have been doing
before.
Darin is a KICK ASS coach, motivator and a genius. Yes, he has a mind that is incredible.
I feel that Darin is vested in my success both personally and professionally. He is a dear friend and I am excited we are now partners.
