Goals and Targets Help You Succeed in Commercial Real Estate Brokerage

In commercial real estate agency and brokerage you need personal goals and targets.  They show you the ultimate path to better clients and market share.

All of that sounds logical, and yet so many agents give ‘lip service’ to the process and never really get it going.  They let the days and weeks pass without much focus.  They let the business ‘happen’ rather than ‘directing’ it.  Over time this then means less listings and volatile commissions.

Let’s say something very positive here from the outset.  The commercial real estate industry is one of the most rewarding industries you can work in.  It does however require complete focus and directed action.  Those that don’t do that really do struggle.  Struggle then creates stress and a downward cycle of business.  You don’t need the pressure!

If you want to dominate your territory, town or city as a ‘top agent’, then goals and targets are required.  You can then set action plans and implement them every day.  That’s how you build market share and attract more listings your way.

Here are some goal creation considerations for agents and brokers:

  1. Look at the growth of property activity in your local area.  How has it changed?  What are the predictions for the future?  Are you able to tap into the growth segments?  What knowledge will you need to get into those segments of the market?  Positioning and targeting are critical issues in our industry.
  2. Assess your competition when it comes to local sales, leasing, and property management appointments.  How and why have they won that business?  Are they dominating their market for some reason?  Can you replicate their actions?  Can you be better?  Stand out as the better alternative in real estate agency.
  3. What marketing systems are being used locally with new and top quality listings?  Are the other agents marketing listings differently in any way?  Can you create a better marketing process in sales or leasing?  It is best to be different and direct when it comes to property marketing today.  Every property that you take to the market today has to stand out as a quality well marketed listing.  Put yourself and your listings into the process.  Stand out as a top agent that gets involved.  Take your exclusive listings to the market personally.
  4. What are the growth considerations in the local business community and the population demographic?  How can you work with that?

Given all of the above, take those facts and shape them into your prospecting and action model.  Set the right targets with exclusive listings, commissions, inspections, and clients.  You hold the keys for any success in your market.  Get active.  It’s a personal thing.
