I was inspired to call myself The Purple Realtor after reading the book “The Purple Cow” by Seth Godin.

It’s a remarkable book that got me thinking about how to be different from every other Realtor out there. The following is an excerpt for the book:

Kent and Toby

"Cow’s, after you’ve seen one or two or ten, are boring. A Purple Cow, though … now that would be something.
Purple Cow describes something phenomenal, something counterintuitive and exciting and flat out unbelievable.

Every day, consumers come face to face with a lot of boring stuff – a lot of brown cows – but you can bet they won’t forget a Purple Cow. And it’s not a marketing function that you can slap onto your product or service.
Purple Cow is inherent. It’s built right in or it’s not there. Period."
The Purple Cow - Seth Godin

With that, and it’s still a work in process, I’ve come up with exciting, activity creating ideas to build relationships and sell houses. Some of these are:

First, and foremost, an absolute commitment to “the client comes first”. I will always put your interests ahead of my own – guaranteed.

Spectacular Open Houses: 21 ft tall inflatable open house blimp, petting zoo with miniature horses and goats, and purple open house directional signs. These things get noticed. They have, in my experience, create 4 to 5 times the number of potential buyers attending an open house.

pocketknife Pocket Knife Business Card: Really, it’s a quality knife with my information engraved on the blade.

Special Client Introduction, Appreciation Events & Gifts: A day of Sporting Clays at Kiowa Creek Sporting Club, Upland Game Hunts, Complimentary Horse Back Riding Lesson, or Round of Golf.

high country Home Improvements: Primarily kitchen and bath remodeling with “nothing down – nothing per month” programs to sell your home quickly and for top dollar.
