When to "fire" a client!
Hi Team,
I had to fire a client recently and wanted to share why!
MAKE SURE YOU VALUE YOUR TIME!
Do not deal with the following.
- Unrealistic expectations
- Don't be an "errand boy/girl"
- Don't deal with clients who are doing shady/illegal deals
- Do not deal with rude or crude people
Remember this.
- If you are the professional you should provide professional guidance. If a client wants to deviate from this or change your process, consider if it is worth your time or energy to work with someone who is an exception.
- Have a mission, a purpose, write it down. Only make decisions that point back to your mission statement! EX: "Nice homes for Nice People. Period." <- Dont deal junk properties/deals and don't deal with crappy people!
It's simple, and your valued clients will get better service from you if you stick to your mission statement!
Good luck out there Philly! Reach out for any real estate needs. My team is here to back you up :)
