In today's episode, Johnny and Lizzy tackle the art of Nudging. Nudging is simply using the correct wording, phrases, and ability to frame a situation that allows your clients to make the best decision for themselves. It's important to remember that you have already seen all the possible outcomes of a situation as an experienced agent. Your clients haven't. But instead of telling them what to do, simply "Nudge" them. Tune in to hear how we use this strategy with our own clients and how to make sure you don't cross the line from nudging to manipulation. 

As an agent the 80/20 or how we like to put it the 90/10 principle applies heavily. Join in to today's episode to find out what we think are the key items to being in the top 10% and how to achieve that.  Amazon Affiliate Link to buy 360 Tripod Mount for Open Houses.  On Today’s EpisodeJohnny Phillips - Host - Owner of The Phillips Team Brokered by eXpLizzy Phillips - Host - Owner of The Phillips Team Brokered by eXpCTAsLearn More About eXp Realty Choose Johnny Phillips as Your Sponsor at eXpLet Us Know What You Want To Hear On The ShowFollow UsJohnny Phillips on Instagram Facebook Lizzy Phillips on Instagram FacebookThe Phillips Team Realty on Instagram FacebookModern Real Estate Agents Network on Facebook
