"I Don't Get No Respect" (continued)
"I don't get no respect". That's what Rodney Dangerfield said. "I don't get no respect either". That's what a lot of Realtors say, too!
Previously, I wrote:
One (probaby central) reason for the public's disdain could be that working with a Realtor is like having a one night stand.  Realtors sell the most expensive item a person will ever buy, and then leave them with the largest bill they will ever have. Wham, bam, thank you ma'am/sir.
It's hard enough being a Realtor - essentially a one person business. No matter how large the network, each agent competes with all the others. Very few businesses exist as a one man show, let alone can be successful.
All the more difficult when that one man/woman "don't get no respect", right?
Unless you are oblivious or thick-skinned, getting no respect is not a good thing. So, why not burnish up the "ole" image and make extra money at the same time. 
Can you think of anything you can do that would reflect esteem upon yourself as a Realtor and also provide additional income? What could you provide your clients that would:
be something they need add income to your bottom line be easy to sell give you respect ... more
