In a world where technology touches every single part of our life, it is easy to get overwhelmed by it, want to tune it out or even ignore it. Regardless of whether you are a new REALTOR® or a seasoned veteran, you can tackle technology no matter your schedule or skill level.
There’s no denying technology can be a time and energy saver. The struggle is knowing where to start and what to trust. As a REALTOR®, let REALTOR Link® be your one-stop shop for trusted information and tools.
If you are wondering how to access REALTORLink.ca or forgot your password for the site, contact your local board or association to obtain your REALTOR Link® credentials.
Are you familiar with the “Five Second Rule” from Mel Robbins? “What if you could change your life in just 5-4-3-2-1 seconds?” Now that you have the access you need, learn how spending three, five or 10 minutes per week on REALTOR Link® can positively impact your business in 2017.
If you have three minutes per week:
- Check your board’s site.
Learn what’s going on in your area. Are there events or training sessions you could attend? Are there any changes to local rules? Many boards are now posting information quite frequently. If your board is not one of them, let them know what you’d like to find on the site. Nothing new on your board’s pages? Spend three minutes on CREA’s site, instead (see next point).
If you have five minutes per week:
- Visit CREA’s pages.
Read about recent federal advocacy efforts, access the latest housing data and analytics or get stats on your REALTOR.ca listings. You can order publications, learn about compliance and sign up for upcoming product and services training. New content from CREA staff, your REALTOR® colleagues and industry experts is posted regularly on CREA Café, as well.
If you only have 10 minutes per week:
- Visit your board and CREA sites.
- Learn how to grow your business with international designations.
- Sign up for the REALTOR® Action Network.
- Visit your provincial organization’s page (using the same drop-down menu used to access CREA’s site). Find local events, information on bylaws and other useful content.
With all the REALTOR Link® resources from your local, provincial and national organizations accessible from one place, you can make 2017 your best year, 3-5-10 minutes at a time.
