“simply choose not to froth it all down” Read that quote again, then you’ll understand.

Don,

That’s a good one. Some of us “newbie” agents have more business than we know what to do with from blogging, but simply choose not to froth it all down, because frankly surfing is a helluva lot more fun than dealing with pricks like you all day.

Have a nice day.

What’s even worse are the newbie agents who try to substitute blogging for working…ooops. Or surfing instead of blogging instead of working.Truth is -if you are an agent in the business less than 10 years-you dont know how to work in this business-youve never learned sales skills because the market was so damned easy. Judge not.
Have a nice day.

Since that is how my vmail sounds, I find this only slightly amusing.

[Editor's Note: Yes, this is my brother. He is only slightly more sarcastic than me.]

Sorry guys, but don’t bother contacting me unless you are a “top producer” haha.

@ James,
Really? They do the same. Daily updates of their whereabouts? Ahhhh, but do they plaster their 25 year old photo all over their biz cards and marketing?

@sometech,

yes

@Henry,
you’re right! I love the “make it a wonderful day” bull sh*t. Duh! Like we all set out to make it a sh*tty day!

@Mike,
That would be the translation for my voicemail.

Thanks Alex now I gotta go change my shirt because my morning coffee was spit out all over it lol… This is so true and I love it

“Translation: My tee time is at 9:30, so I’ll get back to you in about 5 hours after my 18 holes.” HAHAHA

You forgot everyone’s need to add what a great day it is and how happy they are.

So what do you suggest? How about “Hi, please leave a message.” Works for me.

So many Realtors are technologically behind the curve. I’m sure many believe voice mail is cutting edge communication.
