I’m Closing A Probate Sale – But The Family Needs Help Outside of Real Estate! (11:55)
Scott listed and sold a house from his probate leads list – But the family needs help with so many other things. Scott wants to help, but they are outside of his area of expertise and it seems like their attorney hasn’t taken the lead on any of the issues the family needs to handle. Scott doesn’t want to step on the attorneys toes – What’s the next move? Chad makes an important point about attorneys being trained in the legal profession, not in the business of running their own business. Chad provides some conversational language to build a stronger relationship with the attorney and ensure the family gets the help they need.
“Attorneys are small business owners who were not trained in small business, they were trained in the legal practice.”
“I hear a massive convergence story, for future conversations… By sharing the story of someone else, you get the person that you’re talking to self identify as having some of those same potential problems.”
“You’re doing the work. You may as well take credit for it. And if you slow down and step out of your comfort zone and capture these things and then repurpose them as a marketing strategy, but very discreetly as valuable content that goes out into your community.”
