I Wasn't The First One She Called But I Was The First Who Answered My Phone


 answer phoneIt was around 3:30 pm. I was busy taking care of business when my phone rang. It was a long istance number. Oh yuk, probably a telemarketer wanting me to buy the latest and greatest in lead generating. I hesitated answering. But then I remembered the deal I made with myself earlier this year. Answer ALL calls becuase you just never know.

Good afternoon this is Martha. On the other end was an agent from Illinois who had a dear friend she wanted to refer to buy a home in Crofton. No it was not a telemarketer at all.

As we spoke for a bit she told me I wasn't the first one she called but I was the first who answered my phone. This CRS agent was appalled at how many did NOT answer. Don't agents answer their phones when they ring?

Such a simple thing....answering my phone. But like many I too hesitated when seeing that long distance number. So glad I made that deal with myself earlier this year. After all not all people want to leave a message. They instead put value in the small gesture of answering a phone call.

 
I wasn't The first One She Called But I Was The First Who Answered My Phone.
And because I did I have a new buyer to help find that special home.

That is such good advice. I should have added that to my contest submission regarding advice to yourself when first starting out. I always answer the calls and yes you get the telemarketers but you also get the deals. Hopefully a lot of agents will read your post.

Helen and Larry, We know that people want to reach a real person when they call not voicemail. So I try to answer all my calls when I can.

Michelle, I have an agent I work with that only answers about 10% of the time. And she returns call hours or days later.
