Mike Ferry vs. Matthew Ferrara | Is Social Media Stupid?

[Oceanic81five]

LOVE Mike Ferry! Got introduced to him before I even got licensed and been with him ever since! Tried many other real estate coaches and trainers but none of them even come close!

Mike Ferry once again trounces the competition! He is probably one of the most intense, honest and direct salespeople I have ever met and he would never support an idea that he knows would cause you to go broke. Sold over 550 homes in my real estate career in the last 9 years and not one from FB, Twitter or any other stupid social media networking site!

Many of Mike Ferry students do 100 to 200 deals a year in a down market 2011. I hope most of the agents in my market fallow Matthew Ferrara. Think I am going to start posting great tech buys on local bloggs for local Realtors. You ask where I will be at in July. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. My lovely wife and I will be attending a Mike Ferry convention.

Mike teaches agents how to create and run a real estate business. Matthew teaches agents how to use technology in that business. No one uses the internet and technology better than the Mike Ferry Organization so don't fall for the argument many make that Mike does not understand selling in today's world. Social media and technology are tools that can be used in the real estate business model Mike teaches. But not to the exclusion of personal contact.

Fact is, Ferrara method is great at identifying & generating LEADS, then stops flat. Ferry teaches the comprehensive PROCESS for systematically converting leads into appointments, powerful presentations, signed buyer/seller contracts, sales transactions, paycheques, and does it in the fasted most efficient way possible. And THAT'S why his system has endured 70 years. (he copied it from it's founders in the 1940/50's). Ferry is all business, which is all about MONEY! Otherwise, it's a hobby.

Would be interesting to compare results from agents in either camp? Mike undoubtedly has a longer track record.

Thanks for sharing this. Call me greedy, but I do both! They both work :)
