Sometimes to implement the concepts in this system, you have to make room for them in your business plan.In my career and now in coaching some of the top agents in
North America , it has been proven that an agent must free up time and energy doing low-profit, low-priority, and sometimes down-right stupid activities.
Below is an exchange with a seminar attendee. He is having trouble with a FSBO mill in a good market. You know great markets are not forever, but if they were, you are still better than the discount that they give!
It’s tough when you’ve built your business and your reputation in a town then you move to an entirely different area to start all over again. How do you start over again? Maybe this Q&A exchange will help with your quandary.
During the past few years, I would talk with agents across North America, and I could tell there were going to be some bumps in the road. I would ask the agents to be just a little bit more careful. I would ask them not to get the 95% interest only loan. I would ask them to save a little money and not buy so many toys. I would ask them to watch their overhead and initiate new lead generation systems that would supply a fuller pipeline.
When you have commissioned buyer agents who do not produce leads (as you have), you will not get them to turn down a showing no matter how little information the buyer shares. If you have a salaried buyer's agent who handles showings and does the lead generation for secret properties, he or she will be more likely to do what you tell him or her.
