Worst Appt Week EVER!

[rousemark]

Ok you get a Bingo, cause sometimes you hang out with Reardon...


Fried or BBQ ?

Southern Fried with gravy, biscuits and mashed taters.. real ones. not those powdered things most restaurants use..

The other thing to keep in mind is that sometimes you'll have a crappy week...i.e. no shows...but then next week you'll write a ton on reschedules

Ever salesperson in every industry, top gun or not, will experience weeks where nothing pans out as expected.

Good thing the there's those few weeks a year where everybody just seems to be throwing their checkbooks at you to make up the downer weeks.

Moral of the story is I'd rather have more leads than I know what to do with versus too little and no one to see.

I generally set between 3-6 appts a week, and door knock the rest. My appts show up close to 75% of the time typically. I've just knocked on my 5th appt door 10min ago & she's my 5th No-Show!

I have 2 more appts set today, anyone wanna guess if I'll go 1 for 6 or 0 for 7?

Anyone ever have a worst week, appt wise? I can't imagine anyone has gone worst then 0-5?

Gotta love this job.... Never seen anything like this & I thought by now I would've seen pretty much everything!

You probably got stood up because you use UHL as your primary carrier

That kind of week can only happen to the "best" agents.. The bad agents won't have enough activity for it to happen to them.

The good thing is a good agent can take comfort in the fact that it won't happen every week. Sooner or later they have a week where everybody shows up and they have a week even greater than they expected.

Bingo! One chicken dinner, coming right up!

I don't base my year on what happens in one week. I know how much apptivity I need to reach my yearly goals based on my closing ratio. I have been a 100+ app a year for the last 9 yrs. Can't remember the last no show. I have a very few reschedules. I always tell my prospect if something comes up to let me know and they do. If they don't want to meet w/ me wen I call I move on to the next person. Plenty of fish in the sea. It feels gud wen that biz start chasing you too.
