Renting A Booth
I am thinking about renting a booth at a charity event. The booth rent is quite cheap. I am wondering what things I could do to promote myself as a new agent besides passing out my cards. I would appreciate the ideas and thanks for your time!

What type of charity event is it? Unless it is to do with homes or real estate I'd be weary of setting up shop there.
Spending 'a little bit' of money where people aren't interested in what you have to say is just as good as throwing it away. In my opinion, you'd be better off spending more money and getting a booth at a home show, maybe even splitting the cost with a few other agents. Check out www.acshomeshows.com for their rates and which cities they're visiting.
Many people visit those shows for advice on how to improve their homes - you may be able to position yourselves as real estate consultants, offering advice to people on which home improvements will be worth the most.
I know that you cannot walk around the show (outside of your booth) but you may be able to score some bonus points by speaking "as a market value expert" on the best ways to improve the value of your home.
On top of that, you'll be able to network with all of the businesses that have booths there before they let consumers in so you can work that angle too. Hope this helps!Save on advertising, grow your business, get better quality leads. Join Habidoo.com today.
