At the start of the show, we talked about handling the objection of someone telling you they want a flat-fee broker.

How to quantify your hard work and availability How to generate referrals before you even sell the client’s house The importance of absorbing hassle--------------------------------
The bottom line in real estate is, people want availability. They want someone who can be there for them through a very important time in their life. When you’re a newer agent, availability is one thing you really have going for you, so leverage it. Quantify how dedicated and available you can be. The goal is to overwhelm them with value because there’s no such thing as over-communication. When you bring value, you won’t get as much push back in the form of objections.
