I finally learned what I've been doing wrong all these years

Juli the best of negotiators are nice AND they're are good at negotiating - you and I have a lot in common! Hope to see you on Tuesday - and I am quite certain mean and nasty won't be at that table!!!

Juli, I keep learning more about being a better sales person from YOU every day.  Whenever I see you talking with clients or even strangers, you are always engaging and listening, then asking great questions to find out more of their motives or incentives for their transaction.  And, I've seen you prepare for a listing AND saw your cover sheets for your contracts.  You are always polite and professional.  AND NICE.  If you were anything but nice, you'd have to deal with me!!!!

Juli, it's easy for the presenter to tell you to change he made his money with the fee he was paid to be there

sometimes we have to turn green and mean and the presenter was right with the point of its just business.  Sometimes I have to remind my buyers and sellers of this although we may be friends we have to remove emotion and concentrate on the business of the transation and making that happen.

Juli, I'd suggest watching plenty of political talk shows.  Should take every last ounce of NICE right outta you in no time!

Now, how does that saying go?  "You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar".  Meaning, you can get what you want if you are pleasant and polite (honey) than if you are rude and impolite (vinegar).

Everyone is jumping on the webinar band wagon and some are nothing but drivel.  I'm invited to tons of them but I choose to reject them and stay with the tried and true method no matter how clever or enticing their ads are.

Call me!  

LOL Juli.  I suppose it depends on what types of clients you want to attract.  If you want the mean ones, maybe this is a good strategy.  LOL.

I'm like you...I like working w/ the nice ones.

When home buyers are being faced with multiple contract competition, we must be very strong with our advice and negotiating skills.  Being nice make a transaction more pleasant but is not enough for the difficult situations.

Well Juli - I know personally that you ARE nice, and I've heard about the nice things your mom has done through TA Co-workers and know it must be a great family trait.  

I am not an in-your-face agent either, and never would be.  I don't particularly play "nice" with in-you-face peers, either.  It's a lot of letting them blowing steam and smoke, and then buckling down and getting the job done.  Information is power, knowledge is king...and for gosh sakes have it all in writing.  Emotions don't belong in a real estate transaction, although they are often there!  I called my broker just two weeks ago to vent, cool down, and collect myself back to the job at hand - because SHE is nice!  

Nice never needs to be confused with weak.

HA!  Sounds like it's time to channel evil-twin Jen!

Hi Juli, No please stay nice and continue to have that welcoming smiling face, it would not be fun to visit your page and see a green nasty photo in its place!
