Who wants to start an accountability group?

By
Real Estate Agent with Green Valley Associates

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah...I've heard it before...what are you trying to prove.  Me?  Right now?  Nothing.  All Im looking for is a couple of people that I can stand toe to toe with that will push me as much as I push them to do what I am saying I am going to do...and make fun of me if I dont.

BUT WHY???  Simple.  I know how I am.  Do you?  I know that if there are a couple of us out there that are calling each other saying, "Hey! What are you going to do today to generate new business and meet X number of new potential buyers/sellers?"...And I say "BLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH"...I know that I am more likely to THINK about what I am going to do and then actually follow through with it knowing that someone else is going to be doing the same thing...Why?  Because I am competitive.  As much as you see me smiling at you when we are talking and not doing business...well, I'm deep down waiting to get to it so I can show you that I own YOU!

After reading that last line, do you want to play with me?  Do you feel challenged?  Does it "tick" you off?  If it does, then you can understand how this sort of thing can really be a serious boost to your bottom line...imagine, you actually meeting and talking to x NEW people per day.  You actually stop at 3-5 Expireds and FSBOs per week.  You knock on 50 doors this week.  You hand out 200 Just listed/sold cards/fliers for that new listing yesterday.  How much business WOULD you actually get from that?

My guess is that you will get enough to make you quit talking about a negative market?

So...do you want to play?  Comment and lets get the ball rolling.  Or are you scared you'll get your lunch eaten because you would rather be broke and full of excuses?

Im talking to you.

In all honesty, how about we start a peer group for weight-loss or exercise accountability?  I think we should start them both because I know I need to be accountable to someone to make me work harder. It's like Alcoholics Annonymous or something where you don't want to go and tell everyone you slipped up and didn't do what you were supposed to...and we all need more contacts and we all need more exercise...I'm in...
