Day #6 – Give Back This Season

Give Back This Season: Donate a Portion of Your Commissions to Local Causes

‘Tis the Season of Giving, and now’s a great time to give to the community and make a meaningful difference. This year, you can amplify that impact by announcing a special campaign: donating a portion of your commission from every home sale to a local charity or cause. This initiative supports those in need and connects your work to a greater purpose, inviting your clients to be part of something bigger.

For many, the holiday season is a time of giving, and contributing to a charitable cause through your business creates a ripple effect of positive change. By pledging a percentage of your commissions to local organizations, you’re pledging financial support and showing your clients and community that you want to make a difference. Whether helping fund a food bank, supporting a local shelter, or contributing to educational programs, this initiative strengthens ties between your business and the most important causes.

Sharing the stories of those who benefit from your donations makes this campaign even more powerful. Highlighting the real-world impact of each contribution gives clients a clear picture of how their home sale plays a part in helping others. Whether it’s a family receiving meals from a local food pantry or a student benefiting from new school supplies, these stories bring a personal touch to the initiative and show that your work goes far beyond the transaction.

Promoting the campaign through your email list, social media platforms, and client communications will encourage participation and generate awareness. Clients love to know that their home sale is contributing to something meaningful, and by sharing updates about the campaign’s progress, you’re keeping them engaged and involved.

Donating a percentage of your commissions is more than just a charitable gesture—it’s an opportunity to create a lasting impact while showing your clients that your business is about more than just sales. It’s about community, connection, and making the world better, one home at a time. This fall and winter, invite your clients to join you in giving back and making a difference where needed.

Would You Hire You?

It’s funny how so many life lessons can be connected to the world of real estate. Who knew a dead car battery in my Subaru Outback could spark such a clear reminder of how customers want to be treated before they even meet you?

Let me take you along for the ride, assuming my car decides to cooperate this time.

For the last few days, my car wouldn’t start – a dead battery. I knew the battery was nearing the end of its life; no big deal, I thought. I ran to Costco, purchased a new battery, and popped it in; voilà. It STARTED!

The next morning, I went out to start my car, and — UGH! DEAD again! (EWWW- Foot Stomp!!) It didn’t emit a glimmer, a beep, or a buzz.
