Selling the Dream: A Podcast for Resort & 2nd Home Real Estate Agents
Ep. 175: Tom Ferry Shares Strategies to Bounce Back After Hard Times
Are you planning your comeback after this global pandemic?
You may have seen your business slow down, and had to revisit your strategies for connecting with the communities around you!
How are you connecting with your contacts?
What are you saying to them to help them face their fears and insecurities?
When you know your market, you know their questions and their needs. You know what is going to help answer their questions, and make them feel understood and cared for!
So how are you going to do that?
There’s one key to success: you have to make a decision and take action and follow through!
So what are you going to do? What’s your plan? How are you going to grow your business?
