There are teams and then there are TEAMS. To have a spouse in the business comes in real handy on occasion. I never have to lose a client or delegate them to one of our agents. Jodi takes them (albeit reluctantly Lol).
If I'm on the road or out of the office and I receive an in query phone call, I send them to Jodi, tada instant answers for them and no time for them to call someone else. Instant gratification is HUGE in these times. Send a fax, set up a client search, write a contract, we can do it all instantly. She handles disbursing leads, follow up emails, and I work the websites and predominately listing appointments and showings.
There is one aspect of this combination that I was not aware of, that is a man and a woman showing homes. Some clients are REALLY comfortable with that. I didn't know it until Jodi & I met a client looking for a country club homes. On his second visit I took him out by myself, where's Jodi? Umm back at the office, did you want her to accompany us. Sure, I need a woman's perspective when we look at these homes. AH HA! Invaluable!
