Continuing on from last week’s episode, Matt and Garrett are still seeing some steps that are being skipped by agents due to the current flurry of activity in the markets these days. This week, they take a look at one of the most important time blocks of every agent’s week, second only to their weekly planning, and that is the customer service call. So often pushed off the schedule, or not even scheduled at all, these calls are critical to building those lasting relationships that are so mutually rewarding, and our hosts have some great examples and advice about them to share with you all today.
They start by reviewing the long term relationship at the heart of the Ninja system, highlighting the many benefits of making regular customer service calls when building these relationships, and demonstrating the dangers of allowing them to lapse. Controlling your time, The 5-Step Calling Process, unlocking referrals and generating social proof are also discussed. As you will discover, you really don’t need a huge database if you take great care of your people, and the customer service call, explained in vivid detail here today, provides the key to achieving just that.
