When your clients view YOU as being:
Unique
Knowledgeable

You gain their trust and build rapport.
12. It’s All About Positioning
How you position the information changes
everything:
– “I’ve prepared a customized Marketing Plan for
you.”
– “Weichert Lead Network is an exclusive system
we’ve developed . . .”
– “Our Price trend Analysis is unique in the
industry. Let me show you . . .”
– “At Weichert we do things differently. Here’s
something you may find of interest . . .”

Listing Process?

Get to know the home.
Explain the customized marketing plan for
the home.
Share the value of you and Weichert!
Discuss and agree on price.
Secure the listing.
14. Examining our Full Sales Process
Why do we do Getting to Know You versus getting
to the Listing agreement?
Why do we do a customized Listing Presentation
versus a canned proposal?
Why do we do a Price Trend Analysis versus pulling
comps or doing a “CMA?”
15. The Weichert Sales Process
The value story for working with YOU and Weichert
is embedded within our sales process.
It allows you to:
– Personally, emotionally connect with your client.
– Build trust.
– Demonstrate your value.
– Show how you’re DIFFERENT.
– Show why you’re worth it.
16. Getting to Know the Seller
Sellers Think: Do I like you? Do I trust you?
Use the “Getting to Know You” tool to:
Build rapport.
Demonstrate your professionalism.
Show sincere interest in the sellers.
Learn about the sellers and their home.
Separate yourself from the competition.
17. Share the Weichert Value Story
Sellers Think: Are you competent? Can you represent
me? Can you bring me buyers? Will you work hard for
me?
Use the Weichert Listing Presentation to:
Demonstrate value.
Show you have a plan.
Express your commitment.
Gain their confidence.
19. Using Value Statements
Statements that contain a feature or fact.
Statements that contain a benefit or meaning to
the client.
Use bridges to connect the two.
– This means that . . .
– What this means for you is . . .

21. Value Statement Exercise
Listing Presentation pages are needed to complete this exercise.
Work in pairs.
Review your assigned page of the Weichert Listing
Presentation.
Create 2 value statements (fact, bridge, and benefit)
for that page. Think of past seller needs, preferences,
or situations that will help to formulate the value
statement.
You will have 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, you will your share value statements
with the full group.
22. Close Throughout the Presentation
“Is this a service you would want?”
“Would you find this of value?”
“Does this work for you?”
“Is this helpful?”
23. Why is the Value Story so Critical?
You distinguish yourself from the competition.
(The competition WANTS to be the same so the
only difference becomes commission.)
Helps you overcome the brokerage fee issue.
Seller knows what to expect because you share
EVERYTHING you’ll do to sell their home.
Sell Value FIRST. Defer the commission
conversation so you can share the full Value Story.
24. Grow Your Skills and Business
