Are you trying to come up with a "leg breaking" wow opportunity to deliver to your client after closing on a new home. Buying a home is obviously a big celebration for families. Here is one way that has found success. Try to give something that can be shared and/or something that creates a "Wow!". I go for the Wow!
With the new mortgage payment and cost of moving trucks, even small gifts seem like an opportunity.
A week after celebrating a successful escrow settlement, show up at their new home with a hammer and a set of picture hangers for them. The conversation starts off with how they are just about moved in and it's time to get the pictures up. It quickly evolves to how much they have missed seeing you and how they have someone they want to introduce you to.
Before you leave, ask them what kind of tree they want. In Frisco Texas, or even McKinney, new homes aren't typically sitting in a forrest...if you know what I mean. They are always shocked...what kind of tree??? Explain that it is a custom for you to give them a tree to plant in their yard to commemorate their home purchase. Then, explain it's your effort to give something back for all the paper we went through to help them buy their home.
Other Consultants have a TON of success with hosting their client's first housewarming.
Let me know how it works for you!
