Have the Courage to Ask  

“If you don’t ask because you might be refused, your

already refused yourself.”

Misandeh Neta, Best Selling Author, Small Business

As I see it . . . . . . .

Have the courage to ask.

 

So what’s the worst thing that can happen when you ask? Many would say that it’s being told no . . . . others would say it feeling rejected.

 

The worst thing that happens  . . . . is you stop asking.

 

As they would say in New Jersey when someone tells you no . . . . forget about it . . . . and ask again.

 

Think about it this way . . . . when you ask them again your giving them another opportunity to tell you yes and some people need that extra opportunity . . . . to say yes.

 

You won’t get much of anything without asking for it . . . . People can’t read your mind and they may not be aware of what you want.

 

You greatly improve your chances of getting what you want by asking for it.

 

A good role model on the art asking are children . . . . When they get turned down, they will pause for moment and give the person another to tell them yes.

 

Remember it’s not how many no’s you hear, you may only need one more to hear a yes.

 

Have the courage to ask . . . .  and you will be amazed with the number of yes’s you will hear.

Easy enough but sometimes hard to do.  In our business you ask for the listing. You ask if a prospects wants to make an offer.  The answer will tell you your next step so why would you not ask?

Better yet Lou! Always listen to the answer. I've heard so many agents not hear the word yes or no. They just keep talking...
