Do What Others Are Not Willing To Do

The last few weeks I have had peers ask how I am selling property, finding good investments for clients, or how I am finding new business. "How are you closing deals?"
The answer...I continue to scratch at the concrete. I put my head down and go to work. I cold call, I knock doors, I call ads on the internet or newspaper, I have my assistant create lists for me to call and I do whatever I have to make more contacts, set more appointments, and sell my clients properties or find new properties for my buyers. I continue to spend money on marketing. I make sure I follow up on every interested call. It is the constant daily effort of finding, marketing, and being in front of people and properties. Its the daily routine and doing things constantly and consistently that has created some deals that would have never happened. I seem to get luckier the harder I work. The more consistently I do it, the more deals come about. How did the tortoise win the race, one step at a time.
