Today in St Louis - April 23, 2008

It was downright warm today.  I broke down and used the air conditioning in the car on the way to an appointment - I didn't want to sweat through my shirt.  Don't get me wrong, I love warm weather, but today seemed more like early summer than spring...

This evening before dark I tried to work in the front flower beds for a while, but the mosquitos are already out and were chewing me to pieces - and it's just April.  I hoped with the cold winter we had would have killed many of them off, but no such luck.  Off to the store to get mosquito repellant - they're not keeping out of my yard...

I've had a productive last few days.  I got two accepted contracts over the weekend - one with a buyer and the other, my listing at 3881 McDonald Ave. (www.3881McDonaldAve.com).  Then, tonight, I got another contract accepted on my listing at 6409 Lavernell Ct (www.6409LavernellCt.com).  Yesterday evening, I went on a listing appointment, a referral from a friend.  They were not ready to sign the paperwork, but I thought it went well.  We shall see...

I've been getting up each day and watching on-line Keller Williams courses called "Agents in Action".  They film top producing agents during actual seller/listing and buyer consultations.  This has been really amazing for me.  I used some of the verbage last night on my listing appointment, and I really did feel much more confident going into the appointment.  I'm also much more disciplined at knowing the numbers, pending ratios, absorbtion rates, etc.  I'm making calls, now, where I didn't before.  I've decided I've been doing this for over 10 years, and it's time to get serious about boosting my production.  The way I was doing it wasn't working, so it was time to change.  It's not easy, and it's not going to happen overnight, but I've got to try...
