Have you ever just asked for a referral? For many of us it can be a very awkward experience. So don’t. I’m not asking you to. But what I am asking you to do is to listen. Everyone has coffee with friends. It’s so ingrained in our culture that it’s as much as being apart of the American experience as watching the Steelers play on Sundays.

So what if you hear someone say they want to sell a house. Maybe it’s your friend. Maybe it’s someone at the table next to you. What do you do? Sure, maybe you can ignore them. After all you’re not in sales anymore. But then, POOF. You get that image of you on that cruise to St. Thomas. After all, giving your referral card, can rack up the extra cash. And you didn’t even have to do anything. All you have to do is explain that you can place them with a great agent.

You just have to have your ears open. After all, Starbucks is the hub of our culture now, anyway. Just come prepared to open minded enough to share your services.

Have you ever been in this situation?

Friend of yours: I was thinking of moving. The house is just too small.

Now what do you do? A. Say nothing. B. Be supportive. Or C. Be supportive while handing them your referral agent business card.

Think about it for a second. Think how powerful a moment it could be by simply handing over a simple card that says you are a referral agent. Now, your friend can be placed by a superior Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices The Preferred Realty agent, and you can have the opportunity to make some extra income.

It’s so easy.

So next time, don’t be afraid to hand out your referral card. I promise, your friend will be more than happy to listen. After all you are their friend, right!

Just hand that darn thing out. You just might be amazed by the results.
