Jack or Jill, That is the Question

Transcript: 

Jack Butala:                       Jack and Jill here.

Jill DeWit:                           Hi.

Jack Butala:                       Welcome to the Jack Jill Show, it's here that we provide entertaining real estate investment advice. Sometimes. I'm Jack Butala.

Jill DeWit:                           And I'm Jill DeWit, broadcasting this week from beautiful sunny Southern California.

Jack Butala:                       Today Jill and I talk about Jack or Jill, you decide. And you have to make a choice.

Jill DeWit:                           Oh my gosh.

Jack Butala:                       By the end of the show, you will decide.

Jill DeWit:                           Oh, no. Pick me, pick me. No.

Jack Butala:                       Hey, you know where this came up?

Jill DeWit:                           Why, yeah.

Jack Butala:                       I created this show this episode-

Jill DeWit:                           I'm so curious.

Jack Butala:                       Because last week we did a show called "Jill's Personality". Jill's compelling personality.

Jill DeWit:                           Oh, yeah.

Jack Butala:                       And the numbers came back, by leaps and bounds, it is our most listened to by two times more than any other episode ...

Jill DeWit:                           Will you please send that to my mom?

Jack Butala:                       ... that our guests listen to. So it prompted me to have this thought, what is it about Jill and why is it so important to be entertaining and to give people what they want? Do people want to talk to you on the phone?

Jill DeWit:                           Hmm.

Jack Butala:                       I mean, do people that are buying and that are selling their real estate, did they want to talk to Jill or do they want to talk to me? I know who I'd like to talk to and it's not me.

Jill DeWit:                           It's kind of funny, there's times that we've ... that you're right, you've walked by my office and you're like, "Jesus, she's still on the phone." I'm like, "I can't get them off the phone."

Jack Butala:                       Hour and a half sometimes.

Jill DeWit:                           Sometimes, no.

Jack Butala:                       And is it a cool transaction where we clear 150 grand on some house.

Jill DeWit:                           That's funny. And you know what, you know, you bring up a good point, you know, most of these transactions and those times that you get on the phone, you're not talking about the deal. You're getting to know the person. You're building a relationship and whatever it is you're winning them over and they wanna sell to you. You know, I know I'm kinda jumping ahead and getting into the show a little bit here but I'll never forget the first time someone told me, "You know what? I got another offer the other day but the reason I'm doing it with you is 'cause I like you." You know, like "I trust you and I like you" and I'm like, "Really?". You know, they're like, "Yeah" and it was like even not ... It wasn't a far off different offer, but their offer frankly was better but they still liked me. I'm like, "I didn't even know this was a possibility" and I'm like, "Wow, cool. Thanks. All right."

Jack Butala:                       Before Jill gets too far into the actual show-

Jill DeWit:                           Sorry.

Jack Butala:                       Let's take a question posted by one of our members on the JackJill.com online community. It's free.

Jill DeWit:                           Okay.

Jack Butala:                       This is exactly my point by the way.

Jill DeWit:                           Oh, thank you.

Jack Butala:                       'Cause you're just, it's happy and compelling.

Jill DeWit:                           Thank you.
