It Aint Over Until It's Over

By
Real Estate Sales Representative with Realty Executive Midwest

 

Down three games to nothing, the Stanley Cup Champion Blackhawks won game six tonight in overtime.  Last week the media was signing their death certificate and I must admit I was one of the fans that was handing them a pen.  

I love to use sports analogies when I’m working my business and one of the best ones is by the Yankee’s great Yogi Berra, “ It ain’t over til it’s over.”  How many times have you walked in on a listing appointment knowing that the neighborhood superstar was up against you?  If you doubted yourself and mailed it in before the seller had a chance to make a decision then you probably showed it and lost out.

Don’t ever let somebody tell you that you can’t compete against Mr. Soandso.  The Blackhawk’s were supposed to be done with their season last week but are still playing because they worked hard and never listened to the nay-sayers me.  Shot and a goal!!!!! Let’s make this a great week and sell like you are the only Realtor on the planet.

 

It ain’t over until the paperwork is done on your next Hinsdale real estate purchase. Call me and I can fill in the blanks.
