Two ways business arrives

These studies measure different things. Each side offers context for your working day, not a comparison of conversion rates or results from Referral Winner.

Paid leads and cold calling

Baylor’s cold-calling study reported about 330 dials per appointment.[1]

Vulcan7 reported a 6.06% live-connection rate across calls on its platform.[2]

Zillow Preferred lists market-dependent success fees of 15%–40% of the agent’s commission.[3]

Zillow Premier Agent lists average connection costs of $223 in major metros and $139 in other metros.[4]

Repeat business and personal recommendations

Among recent buyers, 43% found their agent through a friend, neighbor or relative, or used an agent who was one.[5]

Among recent sellers, 37% found their agent through a friend, neighbor or relative, or used an agent who was one.[6]

Among recent sellers, 29% used an agent they had previously used to buy or sell a home.[7]

NAR members’ median repeat-business share was 28% overall and 49% among members with 16+ years of experience.[8]

NAR members’ median business share from past-client/customer referrals was 22% overall and 32% among members with 16+ years of experience.[9]

Picture the business you want to spend your days building. Then give the people in it a next step.

Experience and income: context, not a software result

NAR members’ median gross income was $59,200 overall and $88,500 among members with 16+ years of experience.[10]

You may have heard … / What the data shows

You may have heard that “87% of agents quit within 5 years.” We looked for the study behind it and couldn't find one that supports the number.

Here’s what the data does show:

Among recent buyers, 91% said they would definitely or probably use their agent again or recommend them.[11]

You may have heard that “70% of clients forget their agent’s name in a year.” We looked for the study behind it and couldn't find one that supports the number.

Here’s what the data does show:

In the same German-bank study, referred customers had about 18% lower risk of leaving at any given time.[12]

You may have heard that “80% of sales take 5-12 contacts.” We looked for the study behind it and couldn't find one that supports the number.

Here’s what the data does show:

Velocify found that 93% of eventually converted leads were first reached by the sixth call.[13]

You may have heard that “a new customer costs 5x more.” We looked for the study behind it and couldn't find one that supports the number.

Here’s what the data does show:

Reichheld and Schefter wrote that raising customer retention by 5% can increase profits by 25%–95%.[14]

The client wins the home. Keep earning the relationship.

Solve problems. Build trust. Master psychology. Scale impact.

That is the Professional Winner way. A Referral Winner keeps it going after closing, working toward the next deal and the referral by staying useful to the person already served.

Bring the client you have been meaning to call

Let’s walk through a next step, a Today list and a tour day together. See where the system can take remembering off your shoulders.
