Hello? Did you just say HELLO?

Hello? Did you just say HELLO?

Yesterday I was scheduling some property to show. As I was going through the list I come to one homeReally, Did I just hear you say HELLO? that I had to call somewhere other than the office or a showing service. It happened to be the listing agents' home phone number. Now let me say, I am not opposed to calling your home, I am not against calling you at the gym while you are working out, shucks I am not even against calling you on the golf course or at a watering hole. All I ask is a couple of common courtesies like:

  1. Answering the phone or
  2. Call me back when I leave a message and
  3. Identify yourself and the company you work for.

Could it be that your listing has been on the market for over a year now simply because you are not returning your scheduling calls? If you are a part-time agent and you have your spouse or significant other fielding your calls remind them of the importance of answering the phone correctly as well as returning calls.

Hello is nice if you know who it is on the other end of the line but when you don't know the caller it would be nice to identify yourself and the company you work for.

In not returning my call, and yes I did leave my return number two times in my message, I could've chosen to just forget about your listing and not show it.

Remember, you are in business for yourself and businesses do not answer the phone with HELLO...

Leaving a mark that will be seen for years..........

Leaving a mark that will be seen for years..........

We all dream of leaving a mark somewhere, somehow and be remembered for a long time. There areLeaving Your Mark others that make a mark and never give it a thought and yet it will be seen by many.

How is it that there are those that live their life doing what comes naturally and never give a thought about being popular or even famous.

Recently while on vacation in the Great Smoky Mountains I had the opportunity to take a tour of Cades Cove and capture the photo you are looking at. There are many marks on the exterior of the cabin. One of the marks you see was made by the person that built the cabin. The other was made by someone looking for their fifteen minutes of fame.

We all have an opportunity to leave a lasting mark, because of the talents each of us have, without taking away from the work of another.

Leave your mark on the world today by using the God given talents you have been given. And see the world begin to change in front of you......Leave a mark that will be seen for years!

This could be called a PSA BUT I'll just say get ready........

Can you believe this we are already in the 4th quarter of 2009. Where has this year gone? Depending on your local market real estate sales may have been down or they quite possibly have been up. Either way this year has been interesting. And there are only three months left in this year.

Stop and think about what is to come...............In just a couple of weeks we will be hearing a knock on our door and then the voices on the other side of the door say something like "Trick or Treat".


Countdowns

Then before that is all over the decorations in the store will be up for Thanksgiving. Folks will be cooking Turkey and dressing and all of the fixin's. The family will be over or you will be going over to their home. Don't forget your camera and your favorite dish.


Countdown-Clocks

Before Thanksgiving is over and out of the way we will be seeing evidence of the next TIME OUT. You know, that jolly little elf Santa Claus will be making his appearance. Got your shopping done yet? If not better start and not wait until the last minute, you have been warned.


Countdown-Clocks

Would you say that these special days signal the end of the old year is drawing to a quick close? Oh my, I almost forgot. You had best be thinking about where you will be celebrating New Years Eve. The last big party of the year is almost here too.


Countdown-Clocks

If you start early in making your plans then you won't be rushing around at the last minute. The clock is ticking..
