Now I Understand Why My Sister Got Annoyed When I Pulled This On Her

By
Real Estate Agent with HomeSmart

It has been known that I am NADOTA Not a Duplicate of the Average.

I used to have fun, calling and sending everything I could find to my sister, when she was alive, a few years ago.

After a few days and about 20 pieces of junk mail, she figured out it was me that started this kayo.

Well someone signed me up to get an auto insurance quote on the internet somewhere.

As of today, and yesterday I have now had eight people call to give me a quote.

You Must stop and think, a second thought, and recognize, some innocent person, is just thinking they are going to earn a little commission, and make a sale.

Another lesson, I recognize, one of my favorite quotes: THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT, BUT ONLY THE THINGS LEFT BY THOSE WHO HUSTLE.

Those agents calling on Tuesday, are a day late, from the five calls on Monday.

As real estate agents, remember: NOW is always better than LATER.

Wishing you a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS

Love the quote "THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT, BUT ONLY THE THINGS LEFT BY THOSE WHO HUSTLE." It reminds me of The Early Worm Gets Eaten.

Hi Dan

I like the sentiment for agents - now is always better than later! So were the quotes good ones and did you save a ton of money?

Congrats on the feature.

lndeed that would be very annoying!  My father used to put things in peoples' grocery carts that they did not intend to buy - like cookies that weren't very good  or a large size of aluminum foil -
