Wandering aimlessly through the housing estates of the USA are Real Estate Sales Zombies.
Jeff Hunter described it so well, “The zombie career experience nightmare: zombie employees turning into zombie candidates returning to be zombie employees”.
Recession Selling is about saving you from becoming a zombie. But how do you know if you haven’t already turned into one? Have you looked in the mirror lately?
Are you waking up every morning dreading to go to work? Do you feel like you have been plucked into a movie and feel like the walking dead? This is no Thriller, Night of the Living Dead or Zombieland! It is your living nightmare!
This is the job you use to love. Real Estate sales are all you; it is what has given you so much. Now you are in purgatory because the sales are not happening! You are mad, but you get over it once you realize that you don’t have a lot of cash in the bank. You hustle to get your resume together. You start reaching out to your network, cursing yourself for letting so many friendships lapse as you kept your head down and turned the crank in your past successful career.
Hunter says it will happen this way, “You score a few interviews for jobs that you don’t want, but you need the money so you fake your best sales face. You are a zombie candidate stalking your next employer”.
“Finally, an offer comes through. A voice in the back of your head says “NOT AGAIN!” but that voice is drowned in the gratitude of not having your car repossessed. One week into the new job you realize you are going to hate this job as much as you hated the last one. The zombie cycle repeats itself”.
STOP right there! You don’t want the solution to today’s problem to turn into just another nightmare. You are better than that. You have trained all your life for this job in real estate. It has served you well.
Why leave it all behind? Why join the other Sales Zombies in leaving the industry? This is an opportunity to shine in a diminished sales force that needs reigniting, retraining and revitalizing.
Sales Zombies simply can’t compete against people with passion. You have a deep passion and in a market that has so much to offer. You have value and a head start on Sales Zombies. There has been a cleansing within the real estate industry and only those that are dedicated, energized and wanting it hard enough that are going to succeed. You need to profit from your purpose.
Hunter states, “I ask every person I interview the following question: “What would you do it you won the lottery?” Some people light up and tell me stories about their dreams. I have seen it happen hundreds of times, and it is always the best part of my day. You can see the real person peeking out from behind the zombie mask. I can’t help myself: I want that person to experience their dream”.
This is your dream and with the right tools, you can be the success you once were. Take advantage over the Sales Zombies that have and are walking the streets of despair. Stand tall and come to understand the success of selling in a recession.
Tracometry and Seminar-R-Us have the answers and you have the talent to return.
