The best swag item i have ever used … ”the padfolio”
For each client that I take on showings or do a listing presentation for, I bring the relevant documents in a nice leather padfolio like the one pictured above for them to keep. I bulk order them customized with my logo and information embossed on the front.
This simple tool ensures that I am providing a professional presentation, and I even had a $14.5M client call me, becasue he had kept the padfolio with my phone number on it.
Customized Listing Presentation
The customized listing presentation guide that I create and print to put inside of the pad folio has been a key component of my success, and I'm going to show you how to create one that leaves a lasting impact. Later on in the book, there will be a QR code you can scan to view a sample listing presentation.
