Winners That Whine in the Real Estate Industry!

Winners That Whine in the Real Estate Industry.

It's funny how a slowing market brings out the absolute best in business minded Realtors. But, at the same time, a lot of whining comes from those agents that have always been successful by waiting on the phone to ring. Yes, we're in a buyer's market. So what. Professionals do what professionals do. They take the bull by the horns and get back to 1 on 1 contact; direct prospecting. Thankfully, Birmingham is in a much better position than many other cities across the nation. Our Keller Williams listings are still selling quickly if PRICED RIGHT. Our agents Must get back to pinpointing the exact science in which a property has the highest propensity in selling. It's not magic. It's EXPERIENCE.

When agents whine about the market being so terrible, it makes me angry. Get out and get some business. Gary Keller said at Mega Agent Camp that, "We are unemployed until we are face to face with a client." So, stop your whining and get face to face. Be a foot soldier and get back to basics. No more waiting on the phone. It's not going to ring. But, if it does, it will ring while you're out seeking new business.

Why is it that some agents embrace a buyer's market? It's because the Best ones KNOW that this is the time of opportunity; the time when sellers need a Realtor who is serious about getting their Birmingham property SOLD. Just imagine if You had the right tools and systems in place in your business to make a difference and take advantage of the changing market. What would your life be like?
