Author Robert Potter shows you how to get chosen over your best competitors and stop competing on price. The secret is called Third-Level Selling. It's the technique that the most successful real estate service providers use to build strategic partnerships, win new business, and retain committed clients. Most real estate service providers are stuck at Level-One Selling—they do little more than pitch their capabilities to prospective clients; In Level-Two Selling, real estate providers are able to position their capabilities as superior to their competitors; but Third-Level partners win by finding and then aligning to unique client characteristics, preferences, and circumstances. While First- and Second-Level providers talk about themselves and their competitors, Third-Level partners know more about their clients. They understand each client personally and professionally. They understand clients' properties, projects, and preferences. In short, they understand that the sales process isn't about them, but about the client. In Selling Real Estate Services , you'll take your business to the Third Level by: Mastering the communication skills that build partnerships and loyal clients - Understanding how clients choose among service providers and why price is often the least important aspect of the client's decision to choose you - Engaging clients on a strategic and client-centered level - Presenting and positioning solutions that fit the client and beat the competition - Accelerating personal and professional relationships to create long-term client partners who will sell for you Third-Level Selling is the key to winning more business while doing less selling. If you want to grow your business, improve your reputation, and gain loyal long-term clients, Selling Real Estate Services is the resource you need.
