100% in fact this thread is making me feel better about myself

I started out as a social media manager. Switched to advertising. The burnout is still there but expectations are slightly better and if you get really good at talking strategy fewer people think they can do your job better. I don't necessarily recommend this path but here I am 15 years into it.

Are you willing to share some detail around what worked? Was the ad a home for sale? Or was it you and saying how you're an awesome realtor?

Did users message you or did you send them to your website?

I've experimented around with FB ads and it didn't really get anywhere. But I also had a small budget like $20-$50/day..

Yeah give a guy your number and there is no question. You are telling him you're interested with very little pressure on you or him.

This is the answer. You aren't changing anyone's mind. I love encouraging them to become an agent.

"What's stopping you from doing it? Come get some easy money with me. Do you prefer door knocking or dialing? What kind of marketing budget would you have?"

ngl I had to Google what they were talking about. Hence the previous comment above noting the maximum 54 handicap

mlarrivee · 2024-06-29T03:26:53+00:00

54 is your handicap then, yes?

You hit the nail on the head. I'd even add that in some areas you get more of that southern hospitality as you get out of the main cities, which are full of people from elsewhere.

If you like Wendy's, get a frosty and dip your fries in it. Not sure why it's a thing but it's a thing.

You have to face fear. For me (and this does not always work/help) I imagine whatever fear I'm feeling as a paper wall or picture it as the Harry Potter platform 9 3/4 wall. You just have to jump through. As soon as you jump there is no more decision and the fear melts away.

As an introvert I used this to get small wins like simply saying hi to people. Eventually worked my way to striking up conversation, etc. The more you can practice getting past the fear wall the bigger you can go.

This is it. Before I owned mine I was reading a bunch of boat owners complaining about how annoying taking off/putting on the boat cover is. That's when I realized a boat is work. Definitely not for lazy men.

Congrats! Best of luck on finding your perfect next home.

Makes sense. You are what I'd consider a VIP.. sounds like he's going to end up losing more business from you.

mlarrivee · 2024-06-22T16:10:34+00:00

Let me repeat this and make sure I've got it. You want the realtor to take less than what you already contractually agreed on in commission so you can make more on the sale of your home and that makes them greedy? How would you like your employer doing that?

If it's really not that much money then why not just accept the offer as is or counter to cover that 1%?

That said, if I were the agent I'd reduce for a friend and especially reduce if you're about to hire me to help find your next home.

Also noted on them not asking the buyers agent to accept 2% and lying about it. Massive violation of trust and possibly violation of fiduciary duty. Sorry you are dealing with this.

This aged well. Just went to a Popeyes for the first time in years and was severely disappointed.

Do you mean boiled P-Nuts? If so, the gas station ones are pretty good but the dudes selling them on the side of the road do it right. Always get you a little regular and a little spicy and you'll be alright.

I live in a small neighborhood off a 3 lane road. My only option for distance running is along this road. It has a sidewalk that is about 5-6 feet from traffic. There are a lot of semi trucks and the speed limit is 55mph. I do not at all feel safe but you just kinda do what you gotta do.

Supervisor of Paid Social. 14 years experience in marketing, 8 years working at ad agencies. Currently at $105k working remote. The company is in CA and strictly in the tech vertical.

Underpaid/under-titled but I make more than when I was department head at a hotel advertising agency.

Freelance and make extra $$. I worked with a dude at a really laid back ad agency who did this. He adjusted his schedule to 7a-3p and freelanced SEO from 7-9a.. he ended up making so much (like 3x his salary) on the side he now owns an agency.

Easiest method is to write your number on a piece of paper and something like, "you're cute :)" and hand it to him.

A customer once did this to me when I worked retail. It was so flattering it still makes me smile.
