doing business: THE MIND OF THE CLIENT
- 05/05/20 09:57 AM
Whatever your profession is and services offered either as an agent or layman the client is thinking, wanting and expecting and customer service demands we get to the heart of the matter timely as well as do a good job providing we get the job to do. In Real Estate often clients do not know what to do or whom to choose except that they want an agent in the majority of situations. THE CHOICE TO AGENT-UP The mindset of a client to look for an agent to protect their position is a wise/safe move considering the risk & amount of money at work … (8 comments)
doing business: THE MINDS MUST MEET
- 07/08/16 11:38 PM
Its the age old rule of all business. Two people must first have a belief driven by desire that leads to intimate contact or inquiry. From there, activity or interest is given a chance to develop and what is important is that it is mutual in nature. At some point, and without words, a sense of follow through is activated and a finale or closure takes place. A service or product has just served its purpose MEETING OF THE MINDS Forcing a meeting of the minds is stressful but doable. It is an aggressive way of doing business still needing a sender and receiver to … (2 comments)
doing business: WHY SHOULD ANYONE TAKE LESS?
- 01/08/16 01:02 AM
If we start this type of thinking, then where do we stop? Everyone can have what they make, collect or want rolled back. So, supposing we all did that. We all agreed to take less. It would still have to be paid. Furthermore, we would need to put a moratorium on all other goods and services. Why? Read on... CONSIDER THE SUBJECT... Because if we all make less and keep it there, then expenses would have to be locked in as well. No need for more money to pay expenses. Regular money would do that. If you wanted more money, offer more services or a unique … (4 comments)
doing business: HEARD THIS BEFORE SELLERS
- 10/24/15 08:07 AM
If this doesn't sell for this price, you're not doing your job. The first time, I had a seller who was so emotional and dead-set on unrealistic pricing who told me that if this home doesn't sell, it will be my fault. I quickly responded that if it didn't sell, the problem lies elsewhere not with me. I just wanted it on record. Why? Its not complex to know HYPE FOR SALE? Who buys hype? I mean didn't we just come off a major Real Estate crash where supposed values where artificially over-blown and when the market had...had enough, it just got up and died right there and then. Nearly everything went … (14 comments)
doing business: WORK BUT DON'T BE WORKED
- 11/12/14 10:13 PM
How many web sites, applications, social networks, advertisements, gadgets, doo-dads, first impression tactics, tools, leave behinds and fancy phones do you need to do your job? There is no end to the ways one can do business, attract business and maintain business. How much time do these things consume? HELLO...OH HELLO Do you know and remember the feeling one gets when they reach the person they want to speak with? Just take a moment to remember when someone answered their phone when you needed them to and attended to the reason why you called. How satisfying for all parties when this happens … (55 comments)
doing business: SQUEAL ESTATE ORDEAL ESTATE OR... REAL ESTATE?
- 07/20/14 12:03 AM
The word REAL makes it mean something. It sets the mood and the action and those that venture forth into it know what to expect if things are as represented. Like anything else however, the fox can get into the hen house and all chaos ensues. It is up to the Professional Real Estate agent to maintain and preserve Real Estate standards and principals SPIEL ESTATE? Sometimes we run into Real Estate and it is more like UN-Real Estate. I believe that there are times for people to get creative and that no two deals are alike but some cross-ever the lines to get … (0 comments)
doing business: SHOCKING AND I HOPE THIS HAPPENS TO YOU TOO
- 12/06/13 10:55 PM
I wasn't expecting it. That made it even more of an impact when it happened. I randomly went about my daily business routine under instructions from my buyer to investigate and then gather as much data as I could on a home that we wanted to make an all cash offer on right here right now...THEN IT HAPPENED! SHOCKING The agent answered the phone. YES it is true and I was temporarily stunned for a second or two and about to inquire if this was one of those recordings when a second hello kicked in. If I didn't answer soon enough, this agent would hang-up. … (23 comments)
doing business: DOES THE $84 MILLION DOLLARS COME WITH A BUSINESS PLAN?
- 10/05/12 11:51 PM
I call a major Retail shopping center which just sold for $84 million dollars and has large anchor tenants plus movie theater to get data on their space and leasing requirements. No live people available and the recorder comes on and you push this or that to address your needs. LISTEN CAREFULLY you are told as the instructions are explained. If you mess up, the STAR key gives you another chance. SORRY...PLAY AGAIN...push the star key now Okay, I figure it out and push the one I think it is. EHHHHH. Wrong choice. But I have the star key to fall back … (2 comments)
doing business: ITS A REAL ESTATE RIVER RAFTING RIDE
- 01/20/12 03:26 AM
If you have ever gone river rafting or seen the videos etc, you will see quiet times between the fast rushing water. This time serves as a prep time and or a reflection time depending whether you are heading toward it or have come through it. Isn't it the same in regards to our Real Estate transactions too? They come and they go and we keep paddling along WE ARE IN THE RAPIDS Sometimes all my products line up and the phone squawks and we are in the rapids and it is a rush. Don't need to paddle as much as … (0 comments)
doing business: APPLE iPHONE 4S YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR
- 01/09/12 09:40 AM
My contract expired and my old Blackberry was looking beat and tired. It could have given me another few months, but I thought it best to retire it. I have to have reliable up to date contact tools and data at all times. It was time to upgrade. What a surprise to have discovered the latest greatest out there SHOPPED AROUND FOR PHONES Keep in mind I haven't had a new phone for two years so anything coming out today has had some upgrading to it. I checked out the most popular and did some home work too. Out of it … (6 comments)
doing business: RESUMES REFERENCES BACKGROUND BLOGGING GAINING MORE POPULARITY
- 10/17/11 04:33 AM
That is precisely what we are doing with all this blogging, networking, pavement pounding, flyer sending, as well as emailing, texting and answering our phones. The day of submitting a resume that goes back ten years may be joining the dinosaurs soon. The Internet is history, record keeping at its best and whatever it says...well that's you WE THE PUBLIC Now a days, research or doing homework on product, services or service providers involves extensive Internet use....I have made it very easy for anyone to figure me out. I BLOG.... I SHARE ME...FOR YOU I write about everything and anything so … (5 comments)
