Community Garage Sales – Sell Yourself While Others Sell Their Stuff
http://www.LaunchYourFarm.com/Episode99
Welcome back to our 99th episode of the Launch Your Farm Show where I interview Laura Vandette with the Bright Real Estate Team in Hamilton.
Today Laura shares how she overcame her fear of door knocking and cold calling by putting her efforts into community building. She has accomplished a truly successfully ongoing event in her community that brings together local residents, local businesses and people from all over to participate in her massive community garage sale.
Laura’s passion for serving the community she lives in has led her to create some amazing business opportunities as well as build an ever growing database of locals in her community. This has really helped Laura solidify herself as a true local expert and ambassador in her community.
In this episode Laura and I talk about:
· Why she chose to give back to her farm with an incredible community garage sale and how it’s impacted her business over the years.
· Laura shares how she went from around 70 participants her first year to over 180 participants this year!
· What strategies she used to connect with the homeowners to drastically increase her referrals and strengthen relationships.
· A SUPER easy way agents can start a garage sale or something similar in their farm.
· How she plans to grow her event and bring even more value to her community in the future.
· Plus a ton of other ideas that you can use to grow geographic farm!
