Chelle … now think about that … selling something or anything to other agents … when so many are pinching pennies!

That’s too funny. Maybe you could sell massages to other agents in the office. That’d be great if I could walk in our office and get a massage after a long day!

I’m not too surprised they would target a high turnover industry like real estate though, I know my mailing list has been dwindling down the past few months because so many people have left real estate altogether.

Brian, thanks for not asking ME to do it. I’ll have to check the prices – we can’t provide “gifts” over $25.

Maybe, I’ll just have you lay down and I’ll walk on your back. In the meantime, go sit in your parents’ spa.

Well, as a VERY happy client of yours, I can say that it would be almost impossible to think of how you could have done a better job for us… Until now!

Maybe not by you, yourself, but having a Massage Therapist on staff during the rough days of price negotiation! Just a thought.

“Shine”: Relaxing after a day of viewing homes … Yes. A “few bucks” for a massage covering the real estate overhead … No way does a FEW bucks cover that.

But what better way to demonstrat to clients just how relaxing their new home can be by offering them a full Swedish massage in it?

After a long hard day looking at houses, they may not buy the property, but will shell out a few bucks for a massage.

And because you can use the houses that you are selling, the overheads will always be low. Everybody wins.
