Do your agents try to ‘tell’ their clients everything, or do they show them with credibility and evidence? If you’re not teaching your agents to ‘back up their mouths’ with the credibility of visuals (3rd party sources, statistics, graphs, etc.), you’re not helping them create trust and rapport with their clients!
This month, I’m featuring excerpts from my new 5th edition of Up and Running in 30 Days.

Here’s one about the credibility/visual issue:
This week, Ia��ve asked you to start organizing your seller and buyer visual presentations. Why? Because I want to give you every bit of support, every bit of guidance, every bit of added edge I can to ensure you convert leads to customers and clients. Creating visual systems does five things for you:
- It makes you look credible and professionala��we believe what we see, not what we hear.
- It is a self-teaching toola��youa��ll learn how to counter those objections and how to present to buyers and sellers 100 percent faster with these tools than without them.
- Youa��ll learn how to best organize your presentation to flow smoothly.
- Youa��ll learn the visuals that best counter the common objections.
- It is a great confidence-building toola��you will never feel like youa��re out on a limb without the answers to sellersa�� and buyersa�� questions.
Trying to give a professional presentation without the visuals is like trying to play a Mozart sonata just by listening to it. Trust mea��as a musician. It cana��t be done. Not only is it very difficult to remember what you wanted to say to a buyer or seller when youa��re under stress, it just isna��t nearly effective for you. I know because Ia��ve had agents do listing presentations in class for other agents with visuals and without them. The agents without visuals were voted worse presenters and not as credible as those with visuals!
Youa��re Going to See and Hear the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
When you talk to agents in your office about presentations and objections, you are going to be amazed. Some of the information you get will be very good. Some will be very outdated. Some will be outright wrong or bad. What may be stunning to you is the lack of substantiation for what agents tell you. Even though wea��ve been teaching agents for years to a�?put your visuals where your mouth is,a�? most agents just think they can talk people into anything!
* Big Idea: Put your visuals where your mouth is.
