Stop making statements and start selling. Selling is simply a series of questions leading to a decision. The amount of contracts that are signed is in direct proportion to the number of great question that are asked.   The amount of questions that have to be asked is in direct proportion to who you are being in the asking.

What are some great questions? Great question! Here are some to start they are in no order just examples

 

Would you like me to handle the sale for you?

When you sign the contract, how soon before showings will start?

Are you ready to get started?

May I demonstrate how I get buyers to sign contracts on your listing?

Are you more committed to getting the home sold or getting a particular price?

What would you do if your home will not sell?

Monitor your self today. See how often you are asking questions verses making statements. Notice how much longer you engage your prospect as you keep responding with another great question. When we stop wondering what to say, we listen. When we truly listen we have the presence and power to ask questions that lead to decisions. Decisions lead to contracts. Relax the selling process by stopping the fear of what to  say next. Stay in the moment, truly listen and trust yourself to ask the next great question. Always know you are in the conversation because of the last great question you asked. You already do this. Do it more for more results.
