SETTING THE APPOINTMENT
Mary: Hi John, I hope I caught you at a good time, this is Mary Johns calling. How are you? John: Mary! Hi. Great to hear from you. How are things? Mary: Things are great I’m having a busy year at work. My family is doing well. Can’t complain! How is your family doing? Any big changes?
When you are calling your clients to set up an appointment, you will have a much higher chance of getting the appointment if you say you already prepared the report rather than ask if they would like you to prepare it for them and then meet. Here is an example of how the call may go:
John: Well, my wife Anne got a new job and the son is off to college so that is new. All great changes! Mary: Happy to hear it, John. I don’t want to take too much of your time. I wanted to get in touch because I put together a property analysis of your home and I thought we could get together and discuss some of the results, as well as look at any goals you have for your home now or in the next 5 to 10 years to see if I can help you achieve those. Would you have some time in the next two weeks to meet for about half an hour? John: Thank you for putting this together. That would be great. Let me talk to Anne and see what time works for her and get back to you. Mary: Sounds perfect. John, I know you are a busy man so if I don’t hear back from you I’ll send you a quick email to follow up. Please say “Hi” to Anne for me and congratulations to your son on his graduation. Talk to you later. John: I will. Goodbye!

MAKING A F.O.R.D. PHONE CALL
PICK UP THE PHONE & CONNECT WITH SOMEONE No matter how much online marketing, print marketing and relationship building you do, nothing has more power than a voice-to-voice or face-to-face interaction.
16
Here are some great reasons to pick up the phone, using the FORD call technique. A FORD call should be sort and sweet. Your goal is to ask questions that help you learn more about your client while demonstrating you are genuinely interested in their life. Be sure to pay attention for any changes they are going through that may cause a real estate need. For example, if someone is having a baby they may need to up-size from their condo to a larger single family home.

DREAMS (FUTURE)
“How is the family doing?” “You mentioned your daughter was getting married, are you ready for the big day?” “What are the kids up to this summer vacation?”
“How’s the new business coming along?” “Last time we talked you mentioned a career change, any progress on that?”
“I know you are into skiing. Have you been able to get out to the slopes this year?” “Any vacation plans for over the summer?” “How was your trip to Italy?”
“Now that the kids have left for college, what’s next for you guys? “Have you thought about where you want to retire?”
Here are some other reasons to pick up the phone and call. Sellers > update Active buyers > update Recent closed customers > do you need anything? Referral sources > thank you & update on progress Anniversaries > guess what happened 5 years ago today?
Birthdays Invitations Annual market update Thank you Congratulations

HANDWRITTEN NOTES
THE APPEAL OF A HANDWRITTEN NOTE Although emailing is convenient, a handwritten note has a “stand out” quality. The handwritten note helps distinguish your voice and message from the hundreds of others that often crowd a person’s inbox. Holidays and life events are a great reason to send a special note: Invitation to an event Congratulations Marriage Anniversary New Baby New Job

Personal Achievement Happy Birthday Holidays Easter Passover Mother’s Day

SAY IT WAS NICE MEETING YOU:
Dear X, I just wanted to write you a quick note to say how great it was meeting you earlier this week. I really enjoyed our conversation regarding Z.

I have included my business card so you have my contact information. Sincerely,
