Real estate is more than sending some listings, presenting listing presentations, and driving to and from homes of interest. Perhaps we as Realtors, need to explain this better. We are professionals, we are our profession. There's a valuable part of our business that we, and our clients, tend to overlook and we need to stop it now. That most valuable part is Time! In a "sales" business, we need to ensure we are one step ahead of time management and time wasters. The time you waste today doesn't come back in the long run. Your childs soccer game or musical recittal should and is important, don't put it off. In a time of flux that the economy is in, we need to, as Realtors, balance our biggest and most treasured asset, time. Work with qualified customers looking to be clients. Don't waste your time if the commitment is not there on both ends. We treat our customers fairly, but we should treat our clients like gold. Take the time to educate your customers so they're glad to become your client.
Just my two cents, from your retired veteran, your full time Realtor!
You are such a smart man... I find that when you value your time then your customers will respect you and your time also! Another great post... Brenda :)
