I'm the host of the No Broke Months podcast, which is a show for real estate agents to help you have no broke months. Thanks for joining me.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Enjoy the show. When you follow Success will teach the cell journey to get hired. You can get hired more often. To be able to do this, you're going to want to make sure that you set expectations to consult. And during the setting expectations of consulting phase, that's when you're going to set clear expectations. for what your prospect can expect on the journey after they purchase your project or service. You're going to want to include things that may go wrong. You're going to want to include things that are predictable. You know, like for example, for me, when I'm a real estate agent and I consult with a buyer and I tell that buyer,
Starting point is 00:01:52 Mr. Byer, the day that you go home after writing that offer that gets accepted, that night, you're going to freaking toss and turn. You're going to have doubt. You're going to have buyer's remorse. You're going to have anxiety. The next morning you're going to wake up and your sister's going to text you and be like, you're a freaking idiot for, you know, for buying with interest rates or where they are. I share that with them up front by setting the expectations. I did this and just last week, I had a client. The day after we go under contract, give him a call the next day.
Starting point is 00:02:22 I say, hey, what are you feeling? His name is Eric. And Eric says, man, you were freaking right, dude. I was terrified. I'm terrified. I really appreciate that you set me up so that I can understand. you set my expectations so I can understand I was going to be experiencing this. And man, I am anxious right now.
Starting point is 00:02:39 And so imagine when I set the expectations, when you set the expectations, instead of Eric going through all that, you know, that emotional journey, he, you gain trust. Eric trust me, right? Because I was able to go through and talk to him about the potential challenges that might arise. So you want to share with them what how. they might encounter, what lows they might may encounter. So for example, I once upon a time I bought a car
Starting point is 00:03:10 from an auction and I did this using an auto broker. When I got home, I ran into two minor, but you know, frustrating issues. Number one is the battery died the next day. And number two, the AC didn't work. So these were predictable issues that many car owners face, you know, when buying something from an auction because the car is sitting forever and it's not running. So that's why that happened. And so, you know, it was idle and the ACs Frion, you know, which caused the battery to not work. And then the ACs Frion also leaked. So while these were easy fixes, I was caught off guard. I felt frustrated because I was not prepared.
Starting point is 00:03:47 If the auto broker had practiced teach to sell with me and explain these common issues up front, whether they occurred or not, and it happened, imagine what my experience would have been. I'd be like, all right, yeah, this was to be expected. I wouldn't have been as frustrated or annoyed. So in your field, and if your experience, anticipate and discuss the potential problems with your clients early on, if something goes wrong, you'll be seen as a solution, just like Eric saw me as a solution, as I could have seen the auto broker as a solution. And you won't be seen as the problem.
Starting point is 00:04:23 If you're still gaining experience and you're not as experienced, then seek mentorship, learn from a season pro. ask he or she for their insights into your consultations. What are the predictable problems? And then after you set the expectations, the second step, all you need to do is get hired. So if you've done everything right up front to this point, getting hired should just be natural. Because you've used Teach to Sell. You went through if you consulted them.
Starting point is 00:04:52 You set their expectations. And now, boom, as long as they want your service, a service that you provide, you should be able to get hired. Now, there are things that influence how often you do get hired, which include your skill. The better that you are at solving problems, the more likely you're going to get hired. The prospect's motivation and pain points, the more you understand their needs and frustrations, the better you can position yourself as a solution. Your relationship with the prospect, did they come to you through a trusted referral?
Starting point is 00:05:23 That's the best. Or was it a cold outreach? The strength of your connection plays a big role. and the bigger that your prospect's pain points are, the more they need your help. So your job is to show them how you're the bridge between where they are, the pain points, and where they want to go, the pleasure points. You're the bridge in between them. So whenever possible, begin teach to sell before you meet with the prospect.
Starting point is 00:05:55 This is going to set you apart. It's going to create trust. before you even sit down. Imagine that you're sitting across from your prospect. You're leaning in with a warm smile. You start light and engaging. And you say to them, hey, you got a bit of a situation on your hands. And you continue to, you know, allow for the conversation to develop.
Starting point is 00:06:25 You can even pause for a chuckle to break the ice. But hey, who doesn't? you want to keep it light and relatable, then shift the conversation with confidence. Here's the deal. You, Mr. Prospect, you need a solution that fits your, like your favorite pair of shoes, comfortable and seamless and perfect. And now this is where Teach to Sell truly shines. This is where you're going to share valuable tips.
Starting point is 00:06:51 You're going to demonstrate your expertise. You're going to show them how your product or your service can solve their problems. You're going to be honest and transparent. and clear about both the benefits and the potential challenges. You explain how your products are going to take them from where they are to where they're meant to be. You're going to share with them, hey, here's what you should expect from my service or my product. We've helped countless people achieve results by following this process, by buying from us. And then you're going to paint the picture.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Mr. Prospect, imagine this. you, problem-free, cruising towards your goals with the knowledge and the tools that you need to succeed. And then you can just lean in a little bit more with a gentle tone and take control. Let's, Mr. Prospect, let's take the reins and let's navigate this together. You, you're in good hands. You build that sense of trust and you show them that you're ready to help. Mr. Prospect, we're going to tweak a few knobs and sprinkle some magic dust. Okay, maybe just a pinch of expertise.

Let's go ahead and carve out some time to dive into the nitty-gritty and get you back on track. Sound good? And this is the way that you're going to be able to have a conversation with them
Starting point is 00:08:24 by focusing on their needs, making the process relatable, and guiding them through the conversation with confidence and humor. Now, maybe you like my humor I did there. Maybe it seemed inauthentic. And that's fine. I don't want you to manufacture humor. I want you to use your confidence, use your humor. I want you to create a smooth path to be able to get hired using your own voice, using your own skills, and being authentic. So when I was going through that, script if it seemed inauthentic, don't use it. Use your own dialogue. I was just using that just to be able to demonstrate to you the way that you can teach to sell.
