Sounds ridiculous doesn't it? Here's the problem: I'm newer to the Real Estate profession and have been fortunate enough to have had quite a few closings in the last two years, however I don't know how to request a testimonial from my former clients. I've seen other people's testimonials. I know they exist. How do I broach the subject?
Kisti...I have a survey that I request clients complete. At that time I ask for a letter also. For the most part, people are very happy to comply.
If you would like any other information just let me know.
Take care,
Kathleen
Hi Kisti,
I made up a form and send it to them after the closing with a stamped return envelope. Most people send it back, I have even had people ask for them occasionally.
Kathy and Lindsey- Any information you could send me would be Greatly Appreciated. This is a perfect example of why I love Active Rain.
Debbie-I love the "career book" idea. How organized.

Kisti, this is the post. Does CB have something like this?
Kathleen-Sorry I posted a comment referring to you as Kathy. I know how important it is getting someone's name right (considering mine). Please forgive me.
Writing a letter for them to approve and sign is a great idea. Also, get them to tape record a brief testimonial for you. Then type it for their signature. They want to help you but may not get around to actually writing something.
Lindsey- Thank you so much for the letter. I tweaked it to my own personal style and sent out letters to all my past clients. Today I received my first letter and it almost brought me to tears. What makes this site so great is people like you who lend a hand without a second thought. Thanks Again. Kisti
