As a realtor, are you struggling to keep clients on the phone, or convert them to successful leads? We may often think we sound annoying to clients, constantly asking the same questions, and you’re right- you ARE! Making hundreds of calls per day can get monotonous, but the key is to get EXCITED to make your follow up calls. Instead of asking the same boring, robotic questions, we need to dig deeper and find meaningful information about the client. Find out “why” instead of “what”. Take detailed notes about the family, their hobbies, upcoming vacations etc. and circle back on those notes on your upcoming calls. This is an extremely powerful episode of Real Estate Tips, and Joshua Smith gives you an incredible amount of information for you to master this topic!

A major question that arises whether you’re a business owner, or an employee, is when an appropriate time is to give, or ask for a raise. Just because an employee has been there for a certain amount of time does not necessarily mean that they deserve a pay raise. Rather, what have they done to bring more value to your company? What problems can they solve on their own that may not be in their current job description? As a business owner, these are crucial questions to take into consideration. As an employee, you should be doing far more than is expected of you, and increasing your skillsets to make yourself more valuable before you even think to ask for a pay raise. Your main question to yourself should be, “What can I do to create more value in my workplace?”. In this episode of Leveling Up, Joshua Smith breaks all this down and gives MASSIVE knowledge on this subject. This is an episode packed with EPIC content that you won’t want to miss out on!
