Post: The Importance Of Answering The Phone And Calling People Back

I think answering the phone is a challenge for some because they may not feel like "sales" people...and the moment you engage on the phone the SALE is on! The relationship, the probing for info, and determining fit is a huge deal, but it means you have to be "ON" all the time...and unless you're doing it all the time I think some people grow complacent and forget that answering the phone is the only way to generate that big ROI we're all looking for!

Great post and great reminders for all! :)

The NW Suburban Meet Up Group will start up again in the new year and we are putting together our list of guest speakers for the year.  Do you have an interest in being a resource for other RE investors in the NW Suburbs of Chicago? Do you have experience to share and information others can learn from? Could your RE business use the exposure?

If you can deliver a 20 minute presentation of info, skills, strategies, ideas, and/or best practices that will help educate other RE investors, then I encourage you to get back to me ASAP before our list fills up...only 12 spots left!  And what people love about this new and growing group is that it's a NO SELL meeting...it's educational, and an opportunity to network...that's it!

Send me your overview, what you can offer the group, and why you'd be GREAT and I'll reach back out to you with more info!
