How many times has this happened to you? 
A client says, in passing,
Client: I just found out that a friend of mine and his wife are expecting their first baby. They want to get out of their apartment as soon as possible and into their own home.
You: Here’s my card – ask him to give me a call.
Current Result:
No call, no transaction, no commission check.
How many times have you been in a referral moment, and walked away with no referral?
What if you had the right Magic Words to turn that referral moment into an immediate introduction to a potential client?
You can - here they are...
Client: I just found out that a friend of mine and his wife are expecting their first baby. They want to get out of their apartment as soon as possible and into their own home.
You: Would you be comfortable telling your friend about me?
Client: Yes.
You: I know that telling your friend is the easy part. I also know that getting your friend and me into a conversation is the hard part. I’m curious, what do you think the best way would be to make sure that your friend and I get into a conversation very soon?
