Organization is important to the success of any business, but as a real estate agent it is that more critical that you keep yourself organized. As you are busy and rarely sitting in one place all day, you need reminders that can keep up with you. Thankfully we now live in a digital age with multiple ways to automate those ever-important reminders and make organization easier than ever.
Here are 3 ways you can use digital reminders to help you stay on track and in control:
1. Automate Your Task and Appointment Reminders
Yes, writing down your to-dos and important appointments on paper or in a physical planner is better than doing nothing at all. The problem, though, is that those require to still remember to actually check them, which is not always easy! On top of that, papers are easily lost, torn, or damaged. And then what do you do? Instead, using a real estate CRM like IXACT Contact that has built-in task and appointment reminders takes the remembering out of the equation, and can’t be lost.
