Why Relationships Matter More Than Ever In Modern Selling
Today’s technology has certainly changed the way our industry works. With traditional selling, the buying process started with a call to the relator. Today 93% of the buying process starts with an internet search; then conversations with potential clients are pushed through digital channels to increase the speed of closing on the deal. We are in a world that is built on the back of relationships. However, technology is giving us a better chance to strengthen those relationships through a variety of outlets. People still love personal touches and to know that the realtor cares about them.
