Linsey, this is an awesome check list.

I track my sales, and marketing and evaluate each year. I drop the things not working and do more of what is.

Can’t wait for Part 2.

2009 just sucked but there was still money flowing. I think 2010 is going to suck even more though. Be prepared for the next wave of foreclosures and job losses.

Joe – print media is a prime example of decision making based on ROI analysis. Tough to let go of but I’d be interested to see how that played out for you this year.

Tom – thanks for taking the time to comment. You always have great insights on this topic. Saw your video this morning. Perfect partner to this conversation:

Linsey,

You’re right on with this post!!!

NOW is the time to get 2010 designed and ready … a whole new decade, a new page for us all.

Like you suggest Lindsey, in the month of October I am encouraging agents to get REALLY clear on their numbers and where business came from in 2009. This is key. The other thought is don’t wait for December to contact all of your past clients and SOI. December should be the time when you are reaching out to wish your friends and family warm wishes for the season. Take the month of October and get in contact with your past clients and biggest fans. Get into the conversation of real estate with them. Start with the Z’s and work up, so you ensure everyone gets called this month. Just my 2 cents … and thank you for your kind words! Looking forward to seeing lots of agents in November to design the decade ahead!

See you at BarCamp SD!

Great post. You’re right – if you want to make changes that will affect 2010, now is the time to start implementing them.
