The Fall Client Connection Plan: Stay Top of Mind Without Being Salesy

·24 min·2 clips
Fall is perfect for client reconnection, but how do you stay top of mind without sending another salesy email?
The episode begins by framing fall as an ideal time to reconnect with past clients and sphere of influence, avoiding generic outreach. Co-hosts Jan O'Brien and Matt Emerson introduce a four-step process for authentic connection. Step one is segmenting your database into groups like past clients and referral partners for personalized messages. Step two involves delivering seasonal value, such as a fall home maintenance checklist or hosting a client appreciation event at a pumpkin patch or coffee shop. They emphasize that events should focus on connection, not conversion. Step three is adding a personal touch through handwritten notes, video texts, or phone calls, noting that clients don't expect constant contact. Step four reiterates the goal of gratitude-driven outreach, not sales pitches. Throughout, they highlight using AI tools like ChatGPT for efficiency and Canva for design, while cautioning against over-investing time in marketing. They share real-world examples, including an agent who delivers pies and gets referrals, and another who coordinates pie pickups at a new home site. The episode concludes by promoting a free Fall Client Connection Toolkit download and a consultation offer for brokers and team leaders.
