Kenny Klaus is the team leader of The Kenny Klaus Team. He has been and agent for 13 years. He works the Metro-Phoenix Arizona market.

Before real estate, Kenny worked at FedEx for 13 years. He got his license and worked part time while driving a truck. Kenny realized that he had become an expert in the neighborhoods he was delivering packages. He decided he should do the same thing in real estate. So Kenny started geographic farming…and it paid off.

In this call, Kenny talks extensively about geographic farming including: how he picked his original farm, what characteristics he looks for in a farm, how to make contact, how frequent, what to say, what to mail, community involvement, sponsorships, seller workshops, zip code farms, business networking, video marketing, his team, profitability, how to create a predictable business model, and more.
