Login Daily & Learn the Basics Learn the essentials of your CRM, including sending communications, making tasks & reminders, and keeping track of your contacts so you aren't missing important information or activity. Logging in daily & creating a routine is key. If your CRM uses a mobile app like our kvCORE system, create a habit of using the app to make database management more accessible. Check-in routinely so you don't miss your reminders and can keep up with who it's time to reach out to! ![2 selling philosophies](https://blog.eragrizzard.com/hs-fs/hubfs/2%20selling%20philosophies.png?width=246&name=2%20selling%20philosophies.png) ## 2. Organize Contacts & Include Everyone Add everyone you meet into your database, and don't procrastinate. Take the time to create a systematic way to add new contacts and leads into your database consistently and regularly.  This will allow you to start proactively communicating with anyone in your life who could have a potential real estate lead, including friends, family, business contacts, or past customers, for example. ![3 coaching time](https://blog.eragrizzard.com/hs-fs/hubfs/3%20coaching%20time.png?width=246&name=3%20coaching%20time.png) ## 3.

Log All Communications Log all communications within your database & make notes of conversations. When you record your last phone call, mailed notecard, or conversation, you can keep track of who hasn't heard from you recently & who it might be time to reach out to. This can also help you with predictability in your business and help you remember key details about your contact's real estate needs and their lives overall, making it easier to create meaningful connections & conversations moving forward. ![5 tools and resources](https://blog.eragrizzard.com/hs-fs/hubfs/5%20tools%20and%20resources.png?width=246&name=5%20tools%20and%20resources.png) ## 5. Segment & Plan Segment your database into categories to effectively communicate the info that is meaningful and helpful to them. For example, send home searches to potential buyers, helpful tips to those looking to sell, and the latest info in the community to past buyers. Use segmenting to streamline efficiency in communications with your database. Then, have a plan for each of your contact types. Enroll your contacts in the email campaigns that best suit them, or create tasks and reminders for yourself to call contacts who haven't heard from you yet this quarter. Overall, have a goal, stick to a plan, create habits, and be consistent with your database efforts to start seeing success within your business.
