28 Comments on Wanting to Feel Special
My boys did that to my husband a lot. Oh and now its all about Daddy.
Give her another year or so you will be inseparable. ( my kids are 4 and 5 now)
Kids rule! There's nothing more satisfying than being a parent. Nothing.
I think she already knows how special you are. You are right you should always try to make everyone feel like your special client.
I was just thinking how an enthusiastic "Hi [client name]!" said with a smile, can start good feelings flowing in the rest of the conversation. Nice post!
Enjoy it now...they grow up to be teenagers..."Special" teenagers...but they are still teenagers.
Cute story. Point well taken...everybody likes to feel special! Cheers, Harley
Tyler, show her your wallet I did and my daugthers (3) have never stopped say daddy. Just kiddin, it'll come and just savor the moment. Then when they get into high school they will want you to let them out as far away as possible (that I'm not kiddin about).
Tyler... kids make you have a great day... I love it when my boys see me out the door in the morning
I hope your day was a special one. It's amazing what our little ones can teach us if we're paying attention, isnt it?
They all go thru stages. One day it will be only "daddy, daddy, daddy" and mommy will wonder what happened. All the best.
Tyler - "Everyone wants to feel special." True words my man. I do believe there is at least one young lady who thinks you are about the most special and important person in the world. In many ways, she's probably right.
Fine post, Tyler. I always remember that when it comes to our family, friends, acquaintances, customers and the world around us, we won't get a second chance to make a first impression. Keeping up the image is the hardest part for many as life evolves and the intricacies of it's inner fabric unfold and challenge our loyalties. I wish you the best.
I'm with my daughter all day every day. When she wakes up in the morning, the first thing she asks for is her daddy, who is typically gone to work already. Really bums me out. But when she's hurt or scared or nervous about something, I'm the one she runs to. Kind of a cool trade-off, I think.
With my clients and business associates, I do my best to help and not just try to sell my services. That makes me more of an asset in their eyes than if I sent 20 proposals of what I can do for them. Helping them when they need it lets them see that I value them. It gives a much bigger return than anything else!

Good morning, we have our first on the way soon.
Hello Tyler, How wonderful to get featured while you're still so new at this. I am too. I'm glad you wrote about your daughter. I have three grandsons, two are three and one is five. They are the joy of my life and I think they keep me young. No matter what else is happening in the world, little ones can make you smile. By, the way, before you know it, she'll be saying Daddy all the time. Good luck with your career.
great story. A good reminder that we need to be "present" when speaking with a client and truly make them feel like they are the most important person to us at that given moment
As a Parent I "Love" your story. My Kids are what keep me smiling each day when I Head out to Sell Real Estate. The funniest is when my 5 Year Old sees me come home after an evening appointment, and says "Mommy is home from Real Estating." He then asks how it went because he knows if all goes well he gets more Legos.
My Clients in Lewisville, Carrollton, Plano & Hickory Creek are all just like kids. They need to made to feel that they're "Special." I always get comments from them that make me know I'm doing a good job of that (ie "I always know I can count on you to get me more information on a Property").
Keep up the good parenting and the good "Real Estating."
Awesome post.
So very true.
Our actions have WAY more of an effect on our business than the economy does. Even though my focus is the luxury market, I tend to be flexible and take on clients that wouldn't quite be classified as being in my "niche". However, it is a personal stance of mine that I will NEVER do something for my luxury clients, that I am NOT willing to do for any of my clients. This consistency has proven itself effective in getting me more business.
I hope the best for you and your family, and your business of course!

Tyler,
So true. Making clients feel special will get your name embedded in their minds. It doesn't have to be anything big, either, and it'll make a serious difference.
I thank all of your for your responses over the last two days. As a Newbie on Active Rain I'm completely blown away by the response and the featured post!! I hope to respond personally to everyone in the next day or so and really appreciate your stories and encouragement. I love how in this particular post, I received 50% of responses regarding our children and how they make us smile and the other 50% focused on making our clients feel special. I look forward to reading your posts and hearing from you in the future.
My Best regards,
Tyler
