Sales Focus…..

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Referral Group Incorporated

Yesterday I saw a local television commercial that featured a car dealer talking about vacations and how well people were treated for a couple of thousand dollars and how good it made them feel. He related that to his business and said for 30K plus they wouldn't rush the process but allow the customer to feel good about what they were buying.

So I thought about it and decided that focus worked at all levels and in all of sales: buying a house, or a coat or a membership. If you take time and focus on the good, the buyer will enjoy the process more because they are a part of it, and the close is much more natural and easy. Try it and see how it works for you. It works for me.

When you think about real estate, it is time to focus. I have helped people for close to thirty years in all areas, and made the process not only simple but enjoyable. Why should you go it alone or settle for less? Call me and find a partner to help, direct and get you where you want to be.

Good morning Sheila - one of the things buyers tell me about Wayne is that they love how relaxed he is during showings. I tend to be more pushy, but I've learned to take a lesson from my husband and back off :)

Hi Sheila, The BUYER has to call the dance. If you try to push them, rather than listen to them, you will lose more often than you win.

Great post and reminder that our clients are making a huge life decision when they purchase real estate and we should give them the room to do that and make them feel special through the process.

Sheila that's so true in Staging. If you want the seller to buy into the process, you have to give them time to understand the reasoning behind the suggestions.

Going in and steam rolling over them doesn't work.

Your words are true my friend!  I enjoy working with buyers, as I don't really have to sell anything, I get to shop with them and when they find what they like, I help them purchase it for the best terms possible!!!

Sheila- what may be routine for an agent, is not for the buyer or seller.  Giving them that good experience can be the key to a smooth transaction.

Nice point to ponder Sheila Anderson! Maybe we should all reflect on how we treat our clientele and make them feel more like part of the process rather than a target!
