Open Houses
  • If you want to run a successful office have a
    GREAT Open House system in place

A System for Success
  • At the time the Opportunity schedule is
    distributed (Floor Time), ask for the associates
    to complete their Open House
    schedule for the next month
  • Use this commitment to schedule weekly open
    houses
  • Have an Open House sign-up sheet available each
    week
  • Only the listing sales associate should indicate
    the house s/he is sitting
  • YOU should assign sales associates to all other
    available listings

    Sale sign 6 days prior

    buyers, and invite them to the open house

    Sunday/Saturday to plan a route for signage and
    become familiar with the house

    invite all the neighbors!
