So Thankful for all of my wonderful clients & customers

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Marte Cliff Copywriting

Thursday I wrote about being thankful for the Internet for giving me access to people who need me. Today I’m thinking about all the wonderful people who use my copywriting services and who purchase my prospecting / farming letters.

I am so fortunate to get acquainted with ambitious agents across the whole country – and a few in other GRATITUDEcountries.

It’s fun to hear about their markets and their lives. I write more agent bios than anything else, and it’s fascinating to learn about the different paths people have taken that led them into real estate sales as a career.

I have met a couple of stinkers, but after working with hundreds of agents, I’m glad to say – ONLY a couple.

Some of my clients I help only one time – usually with their bios. Others have given me the privilege of writing the copy for their websites – and writing the updates over the years. They call on me when they need a new brochure or a letter for a special event, and they often stay in touch between times, just letting me know what’s been going on in their lives.

It’s always a thrill when I get an email that begins “You wrote my bio a couple of years ago, and now I need…” What’s better than being remembered?

I have grown very fond of many people I will never meet in person. Of course, the same holds true for the people I meet here in the Rain.

Who says friends have to be people you can meet for coffee?

Good morning, Marte.  I so agree! I, too, am thankful for my clients. And over 25 years the number of those I'd consider "stinkers," I can count on the fingers of one hand.

Nina Hollander - I think it just goes to show that most people are good. It's just that the stinkers get the most attention.

Laura Allen, Lake Tahoe - Truckee Real Estate for Sale www.TahoeLauraLuxuryHomes.com - I'm thankful for all of the clients I enjoy, and equally thankful that there are enough of them that I can say "No" when I can see that a new potential customer isn't going to be a good match.


I remember getting started and taking every job that seemed at all reasonable. (I never did fall for the offer to write 500-word articles for $6.)
