I know this may sound strange, but I give all my buyers (out of area buyers, which are most) a brand new phone book. My clients are always thrilled. Why do I give them a phone book? Well, almost every number they'll possibly need, or ask me for, is right there in the yellow pages--maybe White pages, too-- and now at their finger tips. I realize people find just about all numbers, now-a-days, on the Internet. But between moving and being moved in, folks may not have Internet access. Besides that, in some areas, they may not have access for quite some time. Here's a few numbers clients may need in a pinch and can find from our local phone books:
- Police and Fire Departments
- Utilities Companies
- Internet Servers
- Local County Offices
- Government Offices
- Building and Safety
- Churches
- Grocery Stores
- Storages Units
- Schools
- Restaurants
.... let's face it, I could go on and, but I won't. In my area, our local Chamber of Commerce carries phone books, as do several of our local grocery stores. So, when I start running low, I buzz by one or the other locations and grab an armful.
Cheap investment can be worth a bundle to clients.
