I try to avoid having open houses, during the 16 sacred weeks of football season, but if I MUST, I always make sure to have the game on at the open house. Sound unprofessional? Maybe, but I've found people love it - especially the guys. They get their team update while their wife checks out the kitchen - and it gets them to stay a little bit longer as well. I've also found that it builds rapport as you can find a common ground - all football fans love to "talk football." No better way to break the ice than by telling them their team is winning!
Go ahead - turn on the tv and grab a beer. Just kidding - no beer at open houses!!! :-)
