CREDIBILITY THROUGH COMMUNICATION

Uncategorized Mar 14, 2023

If you have been around here for a minute, you have probably heard me talk about the 5 Cs of communication. (If you are new here, you can learn more HERE)

One of those Cs is Credibility, and it is one of the most important traits for you to develop as a business owner. 

Credibility is simply the quality of being believable and trustworthy. As a specialist in your chosen field of business, it is of utmost importance that you ARE knowledgeable and worthy of the trust of your clients. 

But how do you develop that quality?

Through communication.

Effective communication is an essential aspect of building credibility. When you are credible, people are more likely to respect you, listen to you, and utilize your services. 

Whether you are communicating in person, face to face, virtually, or on social media, there are several ways to build credibility through your communication. 

Here are my four favorite ways to do so:

  1. Be honest. Tell the truth, always. People...

WHAT THEY DIDNā€™T TEACH YOU IN REAL ESTATE SCHOOL (BUT THEY REALLY SHOULD HAVE)

Uncategorized Feb 28, 2023

This one is for the realtors and loan officers out there! Whether you have been licensed for a short time or are a seasoned pro, listen up!

Let’s talk about pre-licensing education. It’s great, isn’t it? You spend hours and hours and hours being talked at, quizzed, and force fed all the things you shouldn’t do (so that you can stay out of jail and not commit fraud – which is super handy and very important), yet there is zero time spent teaching you about the most important thing in the business: PEOPLE.

You see, selling homes or selling loans is not about the transactions or the sales themselves. It is truly about the people you work with and serve. Yet, nothing in your pre-licensing education teaches you about how to effectively connect with people so that you can not only stay out of jail and remain a free person with a license to practice, but also build a business that will serve you for years to come.

I am here to fix that.

THE KEYS TO PROFITABLE RELATIONSHIPS

Uncategorized Feb 21, 2023

In any service-based business, building profitable relationships is essential for success. Profitable relationships are those that benefit all parties involved and result in more business opportunities. By building strong relationships with your clients, colleagues, and referral partners, you can create a network that supports your growth and provides ongoing success.

Consistent contact is the key to nurturing profitable relationships. This means staying in touch with industry partners and clients, past and present, on a regular basis to ensure they remember you and stay informed about your business. You can do this by sending newsletters, video or audio messages, promotional emails, or personalized text messages to remind them of your services or just to see how they are doing. Your contact doesn’t always have to be business related. The key to these relationships is that they are about more than just business, they are about connecting on a human level!

4 WAYS COMMUNICATION BUILDS RELATIONSHIPS

Communication is the key to any successful relationship, especially in the world of business. How many times have you heard “Business is relational, not transactional”?

NEW YEAR, NEW GOALS!

Uncategorized Jan 03, 2023

Here we are, at the beginning of another year! Can you believe it? 

If you celebrated holidays in the past few weeks, I hope you were able to fully enjoy them and have some time to rest, recharge, and rejuvenate yourself!

Looking forward to the new year, I must know, do you make resolutions? 

I don’t really believe in resolutions anymore. To me, resolutions are simply statements of something you would like to do or have happen, but they aren’t backed by any kind of plan. Instead, I like to make goals. Goals should have a plan with them so you can see the path to reach them.

A typical New Year’s resolution could be “I want to lose weight.” But without a plan, that resolution will never come to fruition. Weight loss might be the most common resolution set at the first of a new year. But how many of us fizzle out by the second week of January? Generally, I’d guess this is because there is no plan - no actionable steps detailed that will be...
