There is a movie coming out called "He's just not that
into you" and while watching previews of this movie I had to laugh as it really is a great title!
It brought me back to the many times I've heard other real estate professionals complain that "They chose this agent instead!" or "I did a great job, why didn't I get the referral?"
Heads up : Not everyone will be into us!
This is what makes human being so darned wonderful: We're all unique. Each and every one of us has different personalities, different outlooks, and different ways of conducting our professional lives.
When a consumer chooses someone other than us we have to learn to not take it personally.
Has it happened to me? Absolutely! I've had to learn to shrug it off all the while telling myself that I did the best job I possibly could. If a consumer chooses someone else other than me to represent them it doesn't necessarily mean that they didn't like me or didn't think I could do a great job for them.
It probably means that they found someone that they clicked with better.
Nothing wrong with that - after all "He's just not that into you" applies to much more than the dating world!
Shrug it off, move on, and put a positive spin on it. You'll feel better :-)
