I hate being stuck at home during this COVID crisis. I hate it but I see an incredible opportunity for me and for you, the professional REALTOR.
My friend Leigh Brown is a real estate broker/owner in North Carolina-- I have known her for close to 14 years now. Leigh was interviewed by Housing Wire about what she is doing during the COVID crisis. While you would benefit by reading the full interview, please look at this:
The other thing that I’m doing to encourage my team is I’m just reminding them who we have to call and that we all have to be making phone calls. It’s not just the sales staff. It’s the admin team, too, and there’s different things that they can say, but they can still be touching their neighbors and checking on their neighbors because a lot of what we’re doing right now, of course, has zero to do with sellers and buyers, and everything to do with neighbors and humans. How can we help? Who needs help? What could we be doing? And that’s where we’re finding our positivity, is finding things you can take action on.
Russell Shaw, one of Phoenix's top real estate brokers has always said that lead generation is a REALTOR's most important job .
Your most important job...
Now is not the time to cold call for listings nor is it the time to push showings on potential buyers . You have probably heard the old saw, " People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care ".
Show everyone you know that you care about them during this crisis; pick up the phone and call them.
By the way, if you see my number come through on your caller ID, please pick up the phone and talk to me. I care about you and I care about your customers. Debra and I are here to help.
