David Bouthot Real Estate Agent - Real Estate Agent Website of the Month

"New Agent, New Area - 12 Deals from Z57!"

David Bouthot is relatively new to real estate - not only as a Real Estate Agent, but he was also new to the area he worked in - Austin, Texas. David became a real estate agent in mid 2006 and immediately started to use Z57's services to develop his presence on the internet.

David never realized how successful he would become in such a short space of time by using Z57's real estate marketing services. In just 8 months David generated 12 sales as a direct result of Z57, generating him over $90,000 in commissions - exceptional for being such a new real estate agent!

In particular, David used the BuyerLink and landing page solutions to good effect to help contribute to these great sales numbers.

"David was so new to real estate marketing that he really listened to me - I gave him ideas on how to market himself and he ran with them. He is always willing and open to accept new ideas, and puts a lot of trust in me", said Tommy Zoss, his Account Manager at Z57.

We asked David to reveal how he achieved his great success:

Z57: How did you want to grow your business?

David: I wanted to focus on being a buyer's agent and since Austin is experiencing a huge growth in population I wanted to somewhat specialize in the relocation section. Z57 gave me the web presence I needed to reach that clientele.

Z57: What were challenges existing in your business that you wanted to overcome?

David: Web advertising is a strange and difficult animal. The challenge was to talk to a client that was seriously looking to purchase a home. Many use the internet as a first step in an idea or concept, trying to weed out the lookers and reaching the serious buyers is always the greatest challenge.

Z57: What specific results have you experienced?

David: I specifically have written over 3 million dollars with 14 transactions in my first 8 months in the business. 12 of those were as a direct result of using Z57's services, generating me $90,000 in commission. This is especially significant to me because I moved 2000 miles to start my real estate career not knowing one person in Austin - I really did not expect such immediate and great results.

Z57: What role did your Account Manager play in your success?

David: A big role. I had no clue on how to reach my market. Tommy Zoss, my Account Manager at Z57 has guided me through the maze and we are constantly working on different ideas to reach that serious client. Although, I think we are far away from reaching our final advertising campaign, I have no doubt that Tommy will help me get there and I look forward to working with him further!

Z57: What advice can you give to other Realtors with similar goals or challenges?

David: There is no secret: Dedication, honesty and service. For the first time in my life I can truly say I love what I do for a living and it is such an advantage. I never put a price tag on any client and I don't put money first. I love helping people through the stressful and sometimes difficult process of purchasing a home. I look at my job as making purchasing a home a fun, not burdensome experience for my clients.
