The Strangest Place Agents Have Acquired a Lead

When it comes to lead generation, there are many tried and true strategies that real estate agents can implement such as cold-calling, door-knocking and open houses. However, sometimes a lead just falls into your lap, sometimes in the most unexpected places.

In January, we asked our CE Plus members, “Where’s the strangest place or way you’ve acquired a lead that’s resulted in a sale?” Here’s what they had to say.

“At a funeral.”

“Buying gasoline.”

“Through an ex-buyer.”

“At the hospital.”

“In an elevator.”

“While on floor duty at the brokerage office.”

“Tubing down a river.”

These responses just go to show that no matter where you are, be on the lookout for people looking to buy or sell a house.
