If it Works Throw me a Bone

 I have gone to my share of seminars that promise you the world. After spending the greater part of the day giving you the sales pitch they give you the hitch. How can you afford to do business without our system? I have seen systems that use postcards, update letters, magazines with your picture on the cover with famous people, huge plastic CD cases, 800 numbers and of course the never ending answer to the ultimate web site that must include a magic wand.

Like some of you I did try a number of these life changing sales ideas. They all deal with generating leads. They all make you believe that they work so great you will never be able to keep up with the amount of customers/clients they will generate. They all claim you will never see a problem customer using their system because you can pick and choose from this never ending stream of new leads. I wonder how these system sales are doing in this slow market.

I do have one challenge to all of these system gurus. If your system is so good throw me a few leads, just two good leads. If your system works prove it and I will give you half of what I make on those two sales. Stand behind your promises. If your system works what would this cost you? If your system works and you use this type of incentive program you would be rich beyond your wildest dreams. Unless you offer me absolute proof that your system works, don’t bother asking me to give you thousands of dollars before I can see your treasured secrets. Would you buy a car based on what a salesperson tells you about the car or would you feel better taking it for a test drive and telling the sales manager to prove their belief in the product they represent by throwing in the warranty?

I have been thinking of a 0 tolerance policy for people that come after me for "leads" or whatever. The other day I posted on a different real estate site and 2 seconds later someone called me telling me they could get my site to "take off" They suggested I let them design my site. I said thats nice but I design my own sites. I went on and on explaining how I know how to do it better than them. I dont know why I wasted my time but...

I would like that as well.. give me 2 leads and I will pay for sure.

I guess most methods are just about things you should be doing personally and not necessarily tricks.

I wrote this because I spent half of Friday with some one pitching me yet another idea.  It was actually a good idea but I wanted more information which he was reluctant to give.  He did ask for his $450 right on the spot a few times and used the old, well some one else will buy this spot.  If they are looking for careless agents more power to 'em. 

The thing is, I could create his system myself in a few days and do it for a little time, a few phone calls and some gas money.  My system is to take others a step further.
