Welcome to ActiveRain, Laurie Reeves.  Reaching out like this was a good idea.  It can feel very hopeless when you're in the wrong fishbowl, like you are the problem.  But that is not true.  You have done something very courageous, to leave everything behind and start from scratch.  Remember that about yourself; don't write it off and the rest of your good qualities as well.  Here are my suggestions:

1. Go to the websites of those who say their sites are generating leads.  See how they have set theirs up to do that.  Once you see that, you'll be able to.

2. Find a charitable cause you love and meet people.  Or join a knitting club or some other activity that lets you meet people.  This will increase your sphere of influence....

3. Don't underestimate the value of blogging, on your site and on ActiveRain. If you get known here, people will send you referrals.  They know someone who wants to move to your area, etc.  Saw one just this week.

4. There is a lot of other good advice already shared.  I didn't repeat it.

5. You might check out my blog about what worked, and take stock of this past year.  Then save what has been worthwhile, and start over.  I'm not saying dump your broker; just start over as a practice exercise, a what if, and really let yourself imagine it from a fresh start.

6. Take a little time, Laurie, to see what kind of SOI you want to have.  What kind of people do you want to hang with?  Love knitting?  Join a knitting club, maybe one that knits things for seniors who have dementia (or not...but if they are reaching out to others, you'll have a bigger sphere of influence).  Love singing?  Join a choir or a church or a hospice choir...any place where people are meeting and you love what they are doing.  Create your network, and get interested in those people.  It won't be long before they also get interested in you.

You can make it.  Send a message deep within that you want to change to successful now, and to lead you to it.  You're worth it.        :  )

Generating leads by referral from present and past clients and your sphere of influence

face to face, face to face...I am not stuttering just emphasizing. A

I am the best lead generation system - as well you should be also

Laurie Reeves I tried Landvoice when I first got my licenses.  I'm not much on cold calling and didn't use the service over a month.  My suggestion is net working and using the Internet to generate your own leads.  Blogging & Facebook groups have been good for me.  I'm sure you will get many suggestions here by experienced agents.  

Never have used any of the systems you mentioned. I keep in touch with my sphere for the majority of my lead gen although I do get web leads, open house leads, sign calls etc - but when I need an appointment I get on the phone.

Personal Website Laurie Reeves 

Host open house often.  If you don't have your own listings, ask colleagues if you can hold theirs open.  You'll meet people interested in buying or selling real estate.  I've done multiple transactions with many people I met at open house when I first started. 

Whatever you do, the consistency of your activity is a key. 

Laurie - two thoughts - Being in such a small office can be holding you back. There isn't enough business for you to be able to hold open houses and that sounds like a problem! In addition you probably aren't getting much training. I got my first listing by door knocking in my neighborhood. You can also work FSBOs - go to Trulia or Zillow and see where the FSBOs are. Frequently they show up on those sites before they list with a discount broker in the MLS so you want to grab them before they list.  

Finally - I know that Keller is not inexpensive but once you cap the $ is all yours. The split even for an agent with one year of experience is less than at many traditional brokerages and the education is fantastic.  I feel like my business has grown so much since I came to Keller (and got Kellerized) that it is worth the additional fees. When you do cap then you really feel like you are getting a much better deal at Keller than you would at a traditional brokerage.  Good luck and if you ever want to talk, just give me a call! 

I agree with Mary Yonkers.

I have never used any of the above.  Good old-fashioned networking + blogging.

postAprop.com - delivers the best ROI for your business. Don't be fooled buy the low price point, it delivers.

Have not used those; generated my own.

I do very well at lead gen and don't need any other costly system to take a percentage of my income

blogging and marketing to Google.... if Google likes what you do and you follow Google's forever changing algorithms, you can't lose... AND IT'S FREE...AND YOU HAVE FULL CONTROL OF THE FREQUENCY....

You need to be on a TEAM where the TL will supply you with buyer leads to get you Cash Flowing .asap !!!!!!!! Go interview at KW and tell them you want to be on a team 

Laurie Reeves - the one that you use! I use none of these and simply use my own phone to call my sphere of influence - and it works!

Join a successful team. You'll have more leads than you can handle. Find out who is listing the most homes in your area and ask if they need help. You'll make way more money then going at it alone. Once you get established then think about going out on your own, or expanding the team to other areas.

I generate my own leads through my sphere of influence and past clients.

We use our website. Make it current, inviting, and make sure it captures leads.

Never used any of them but, I do work my sphere, keep in touch with my clients and work my website for leads for my team.  It works and is far cheaper (and far more fun!) than working lead-gen systems!  Good luck!

Talk to everyone you know and do it again in a month and again and again.  Talk to everyone you meet

I have been leaning toward brivity.

Do you want to know the best of our the least expensive? Try mocha

Are you still here on active rain? You had an interesting first blog guestion  but then you stopped?

I agree with Jeff Dowler, as do most of the people here. Start building a database and keep in touch with your family, friends, and neighbors. I send post cards monthly and phone calls as much as possible. E-mail has become Spam, so unless they ask, I don't send them anything via e-mail.

Blog about your favorite neighborhoods, it will get attention, and you will become the expert.

Sold sign and Sphere of Influence.  Just picked up a buyer client two days ago from SOI.

Only two;

1. my telephone - referral from those clients and colleages that I call
2. my blog - shared with other social media sites

Run from the lead sellers.  Spend your money of a Brian Buffini program.

Had great success with ReboGateway. 

Laurie Reeves Many sites offer lead generation. Personal referrals re the best.

Work your network with people that you know.  It is freeand get your name out there.  How many business cards is yourgoal per week to get out?

I do not know.

My sphere of influence and blogging to be honest.

I am not familiar with your list of systems. 

To determine "best", you need to determine the criteria to use in order to perform the evaluation.

Laurie Reeves The best lead generation system is networking and it is free.

Here to read the interesting comments of other Rainers. Use none of the systems you named! 

The best system is one that you set up for yourself and not pay or rely on others to do for you.

ActiveRain is a great place to ask questions and learn from others.  

There will always be bright and shiny objects that will tout incredible results will be achieved through an opportunity that will more than pay for itself with your first closing.   

Be careful.  

Your face to face connections

We get all of our leads from referrals, marketing, and prospecting.

I found the best is prospecting.  Invite people to contact you.

of those mentioned we currently use RedX

Being a part of a team to start may help you....small offices may be intriguing because of lower overhead and the promise of more money but a difficult place to start. I agree with Lise Howe ...If you want to talk about KW either one of us is happy to do so.

Referrals from you current and past clients and SOI.

I use the RedX have been for 8 years now.  However, in the end it is always better eyeball to eyeball. 

Face to face contacts.

BOOM! Jeff Dowler gave you the best answer. I'll add that comes from working your CRM; your database is your goldmine.

Possibly from your site. They read a blog or ans something and like it.

The more you blog the more leads you get.
