Key Points
1. The agents that are having the most success with buyers are the ones that set the right expectations from the get-go, and that carries all the way through to a successful transaction. A buyer will never question your advice if you prepare them.
2. The 3x3 formula is the most effective way to follow up with leads. When the lead comes in and we make that first contact, we want to have 3 calls, 3 emails and 3 texts within the first 3 days. That’s 9 touches right out the gate. Some agents think that’s being too pushy, but it has been proven that this approach will increase your conversion.
3. Because the market was moving so fast last year, agents could get away with skipping steps, and not having a dialed in buyer consultation or even an offer consultation. As the market starts slowing down, it’s really important that we refine these things and provide them to our buyer clients at a really high level.
