I mean who wouldn't want to pay for a ineffective $400 print media ad to "make the seller happy?" That low cost social media stuff that really requires me to meet the client where they are, is just too much for me to handle..... Ok, I'm done being cynical.... Your humble approach to delivering information is your strength. I am glad that this approach is working for you. That means that you're doing it well.

If I'm writing about what has worked for me, how can I be dead wrong? Do you have some deep insight into where my closings are coming from that I don't? Am I sleepwalking and knocking on doors? You're welcome to argue the merits of prospecting online but I'm not sure how you can tell me that that isn't what has worked for me. I'm pretty sure I'm right when it comes to where my clients come from. Chris – I’ll take the bait back …
