49: Do Your Job
Not to sound preach-y over here, but this episode is a reminder to “do your job”. What does that mean? Where are we falling short? What are the non-negotiables as far as what you should be doing? Nobody gives you a manual on how to be a Realtor and let’s be honest real estate school isn’t teaching you much about actually selling real estate. This episode covers the activities you should be doing and the reasons why excellent customer service will ultimately put your “lead generation” on auto-pilot.

48: Taking the Emotion Out of Real Estate
Buying and selling a home is filled with emotions. Add in two agents, negotiations, obstacles and problems to solve and there are numerous emotional landmines to sidestep. As the middleman in these huge deals it is our duty to learn the art of diffusing negative emotions for our clients. Keeping in mind the final goal for all parties involved is a great way to navigate what has the potential to be a stress filled mess. Above all else remember it is nice to be nice and you WILL get more flies with honey.
