It is essential for a Champion Agent to operate on a solid platform from which to train their Buyer's Agents. My belief has always been that a Champion Agent works predominantly with Sellers. However, they must acquire the skills to work with Buyer leads first, so they can select only the cream of the crop of prospects. That enables them to create a high profit, even from a Buyer. Many Champion Agents, as they transition their business to have Buyer's Agents, don't have a system to ensure conversion and commitment of those leads. A Champion Agent has the ability to communicate their professional services and value to prospects in a manner that creates a strategic advantage over their competition. They clearly know why someone should use their representation services. They are able to concisely articulate the specific services their clients will receive. Moreover, a Champion Agent knows the services that are specific to them that their competitors don't provide and know how to use those competitive points of difference to their decisive advantage. There are nine specific ways to build your value to a Buyer and separate your services from the competition. If you employ them effectively, they provide you with a tremendous advantage over your competition. Non-champion performers attempt to sell based on access to information and rapport. A Champion Agent sells their services based on skill, knowledge, benefits to the clients, and statistical proof or empirical evidence of success. They don't leave their income to chance. The nine categories of professional service and value are:
Using these nine categories enables you to convey to the Buyer your value to them as their exclusive representative. |
