#30DaySoldSignChallenge - YAY OR NAY

Reblogger

Erin Bates shares a great idea - and yes, thinking outside the box!

It's #30DaySoldSignChallenge!

There are many naysayers and there are many risk-takers.

What do you think of this idea?

Original content by Erin Bates FA100050874

The #30DaySoldSignChallenge is sweeping the industry and going VIRAL!
And this raises the question … YAY OR NAY?

 

Here’s how it works, for the next 30 days (starting from when you accept the challenge) you carry around a “SOLD” Rider EVERYWHERE you go!
And I do mean EVERYWHERE (well, maybe not the bathroom, but heck, who knows).

 

Anyway, the magic of this challenge is that folks from all over (aka EVERYWHERE) will be intrigued by the sign and possibly strike up a conversation.
What is that sold sign? Why do you have it? Oh, you are a Realtor? How is the market?
I have a house to sell! My kids are saving to buy their first home! And so on …  

 #30daysoldsignchallenge

 

The results from the #30DaySoldSignChallenge are overwhelming so far with
tons and tons of stories being shared about generated business.

 

We believe that thinking outside of the box and going into something with a
positive attitude
and expectations for success, is a GREAT IDEA!

 

There are, however, plenty of nay-sayers … even one gentleman who shared our post about this challenge on Social Media stating that any Realtor who does this has no self-respect and is the reason why Realtors are ranked just above used car salesman for the least trusted professions.

 

What’s your take? And what’s that sign sticking out of your bag?

Good morning Praful. Belinda Spillman also re-blogged Erin's post earlier, it is so very true, good thought process and worth replicating.

It sounds interesting, I am not sure if I could pull it off for taking it everywhere, but may give it a try.

I love anytime someone comes up with an idea. Go for it! What do you have to lose? I am going to put my "Too Late" sign inside my car but won't be carrying it around.

Everything works some of the time. Nothing works all the time.  Look forward to hearing about the 30 day results.

(And it's okay to twist the idea and use it so it is not so BOLD!)

Michael J. Perry did not know it's an old idea...Mr. SOLD used it a while ago, I was not aware of.

Andrea Bedard you are right - this is, indeed, a great idea and can be used with some twist.

Afterall, what we need is to strike a conversation - and make people curious about what it is, isn't it?

Endre Barath, Jr. this surely is a great post - and worth spreading. I am sure there are a few re-posts of the original.
