Does anyone out there in AR world have any telephone dialogues they would like to share with the rest of us. I am always looking for new, innovative ways to reach potential clients in my area. Any "nuggets" would be welcomed, and thank you! Here are a few of mine that I use: 1. Just Listed Dialogue: Mr./Mrs _____________. Hi, my name is Christopher Smith from Skogman Realty.
