Sarcasm Wins Business

OK . . .so I've been feeling like a beaten down rag doll in this market. I've screamed, I've cried, I've quit, I've had a mental breakdown, and then I laughed and took a break.

I started venting with a great friend and fellow realtor and I thought of how funny it would be to post a role-play you tube video of all the things I'd LOVE to say to clients or unprofressional realtors (unprofessional? No, Really?) from time to time.

"Oh really, you don't say...hmmm, your house has been on the market for TWO MONTHS and you've had NO offers, eh? And, you say it's your realtor's fault, hmmmm. Well, MAYBE you shouldn't have bought a house you couldn't afford two years ago and now you're asking TOO MUCH MONEY. MAYBE, it's because your lazy *butt* won't get off the couch and clean it up a bit so it doesn't smell like dog *pee* and look like a tornado hit. MAYBE it's because you're expecting a *darn* miracle from an elf named Sam."

The *words* signify a clean version of what I'd like to say so you can fill in the blanks with your word of choice. wink wink

So, in the end -I have a funny tshirt company and decided to print a few of my sentiments on the front of a shirt and wear it proudly.

Turns out, they're great conversation starters. Turns out, it's a great way to seem like you're a professional realtor with a great sense of humor in trying to survive the market and people want to work with you.

So, it turns out -it's a great way to get new clients who want to take advantage of a great buying opportunity.

You can order them from my site in assorted colors, styles, shapes and sizes and they're shipped directly to you. If you'd like your logo or name on it -this can be done as well. Just email your logo with company policy approval guidelines if necessary and/or your name to Sales@SnoodyBoody.com. More sayings and designs on the way.

If nothing else, remember to breathe. Remember to laugh. And, if you drink...have one or two or three, but not alone. Start a support group and meet once a week at 5pm...at the bar.

Remember there's more to life so don't forget to LIVE a little. Happy Selling, Colleagues!
