Strategy Without Execution is Hallucination:
Build a Sales & Marketing Plan That Actually Delivers
As a top-performing real estate agent, team leader, or loan officer aiming to hit your next revenue milestone, a solid sales and marketing strategy isn’t just “nice to have” — it’s essential. But here’s the catch: a strategy alone isn’t enough. If it’s not executed with precision and consistency, it’s like putting on a blindfold and hoping to hit a target. Possible? Maybe. Probably? Absolutely not.
To go from “dreaming” to “doing,” you need a well-structured plan, broken down into actionable steps, along with the tools and accountability to execute it consistently. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of creating a sales and marketing plan that you and your team can work from every day, week, month, quarter, and year. Plus, we’ll introduce you to REN 360’s suite of tools designed to make execution as seamless as possible.

The Problem: Why Most Strategies Fail
According to a survey by Constant Contact, 73% of small business owners lack confidence in the effectiveness of their marketing strategy. Why? Because many businesses have a vague idea of where they want to go, but without a detailed roadmap and daily actions, they end up lost along the way.
At REN 360, we make sure that doesn’t happen. Our approach is about creating a clear, step-by-step plan that includes what to do, when to do it, who will do it, how you’ll do it, and what tools you need to get it done. Let’s dive in.
Step-by-Step Breakdown of Your Sales & Marketing Plan
Let’s walk through the key steps to create a plan that’s built for execution and aligned with REN 360’s suite of tools to support each stage.
Step 1: Outline Your Activities
The foundation of a successful plan is knowing exactly what you need to do every day, week, month, quarter, and year. Here’s a breakdown of the activities you’ll want to include, tailored for real estate professionals focused on accelerating growth.
Daily Activities:
- Social Media Engagement: Post 5-7 stories daily, interact with potential clients, and engage in relevant groups.
- Follow-up: Nurture relationships with leads in your pipeline, past clients, and Sphere of Influence (SOI).
- Pipeline Management: Update your CRM with accurate lead data, track key performance indicators (KPIs) like conversion rates, appointments, and closed deals.
- New Outreach: Contact new leads through phone, email, text, and social media. Use automated tools to streamline the process.
- Training & Plan Check-In: Review what’s working and where improvements are needed.
Weekly Activities:
- Optimization: Review and optimize marketing funnels and refresh Facebook ads.
- Marketing & Promotion: Promote listings, create SEO content, and host a weekly webinar.
- Content Creation: Batch-produce 7-21 short-form videos, one long-form video, and a podcast episode.
Monthly Activities:
- Promotional Campaign: Send a monthly email to promote your latest offer, adding value to your database each week.
- Sales Enablement: Update sales scripts based on recent feedback.
- Performance Review: Assess marketing and sales stats to refine your approach.
Quarterly Activities:
- Team Celebration: Recognize team successes to boost morale and build momentum.
- Goal Setting & Planning: Set new milestones for the upcoming quarter and adjust your strategy as needed.
- Client & Agent Engagement: Host events for clients and agents, capturing moments for future marketing.
Yearly Activities:
- Celebration & Recognition: Celebrate achievements to motivate and retain top talent.
- Strategic Planning Retreat: Gather your top performers to brainstorm new initiatives for the next year.
- Year-End Recap: Conduct a SWOT analysis to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.
Step 2: Time Block Your Calendar
Once you’ve outlined your activities, time-block them into your calendar. For solo entrepreneurs, at least 2-3 hours per day should be dedicated to prospecting and follow-up, with an additional hour for marketing. The rest of the day can focus on appointments, client service, and operations.
This structured approach keeps you focused and productive, ensuring that key activities aren’t left to chance.
Step 3: Assign Responsibilities
Execution is a team effort. Identify who on your team will handle each activity and ensure accountability by having them track metrics and suggest improvements. Clearly defining roles keeps everyone focused and aligned with the plan.
Step 4: Develop Processes
Without clear processes, even the best plans can fall apart. Begin documenting Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for each task, and compile them into a playbook. This will streamline onboarding for new team members and ensure consistent execution across the board.
Step 5: Choose Your Tools for Seamless Execution with REN 360
