Episode 111: How to be Nice And Still Crush it in Sales with Barry Jenkins
Tuesday Jun 28, 2022
Tuesday Jun 28, 2022
Growing up, children are told that for people to like them or to get what they want, they have to be nice. That’s why when someone goes into the sales profession or becomes a real estate agent, they think that in order to close the deals, they would need to be the nicest, most-liked person the client has ever dealt with.
Yet oftentimes, nice people tend to be more focused on gaining the approval of the person they’re talking to, over helping or providing value. So that if their prospect says they’re busy, nice people offer to email instead just so they wouldn’t bother them. This is just one of the reasons why most “nice” agents get out-sold.
However, it doesn’t mean that you have to be rude or obnoxious to become great at selling. There are ways to sell real estate while still being your nice, authentic self.
