		<description>Consistency (ie drip campaigns) can make a big difference in the quantity &amp; quality - it does all pay off eventually though :)</description>

		<description>Couldn&#039;t agree more, Sometimes marketing makes my phone ring off the hook. While other times it seems completely useless. Eventually all marketing pays off. I love it when people notice me shopping or walking down the street. &quot;Hey your that real estate guy I saw on the internet&quot; or &quot;Hey you know that post card you sent a while back...&quot;. My favorite is when they read the blog and know so much about me but I have never met them.</description>

		<description>Hey Ki, I&#039;ve had some of those long time drip campaign leads call me up ready to buy and thank me for sending them all those emails. They act like we know each other and it&#039;s been so long since I talked with them, or maybe never even talked with them and I can&#039;t remember who they are. It&#039;s cool that they actually thought I was personally sending each of those emails.</description>

		<description>That is pretty cool.  I have not gotten any of those referrals from long lost business cards but hopefully I will later.  I have had a few that have been on drip campaigns for a long long time that end up buying.</description>

		<description>That is a good point but I would like to add that consistently keeping in contact with you base is very important.

I can&#039;t tell you how many listing I have taken that as I walked into the kitchen I would see another agents magnetic business card or calender on the refrigerator. 

Consistency is critical to long term success.</description>
