Do you have ICE in your cell phone?

Do you have ICE in your cell phone?  A piece of good advice for anyone - not just real estate agents - is having a phone number in your cell phone under the contact name ICE (In Case of Emergency).  I work with clients.  They ride in my car.  We tour homes together.  We work together in serious contract negotiations.  But, would they know who to call in case of an emergency, if I were not conscious to tell them?  Probably not.

Entering a contact name in your mobile phone is easy.  Entering one designated person under ICE takes the guess-work out of an emergency situation and let's your loved ones know quickly when a problem arises. 

Be sure to let the person know that they are your designated contact in case of an emergency.  And, go one step further and make sure that you give them a list of people to be contacted.  If you have kids, one of those contacts may need to pick up the kids from school.  One may need to notify your parents.  One may need to advise your assistant, or your next appointment. 

Keep your own personal safety in mind always when showing homes.  And, encourage your clients to put ICE in their cell phones, too.  You aren't just their real estate agent.  You are the first acquaintance they've made in DFW.  Be a friend and spread the word.

Have a blessed day!
