Key Quotes:
- “One thing we do know, is we position ourselves to be able to say to the buyer, when I’m first meeting them, walking in their business, having a zoom call with them, whatever that could be… that first encounter, is helping them understand positioning. Positioning in the fact that I am here. Not because if you say no, I’m going to the next person. Or, I’ve already been to the person across the street. I’m here specifically to see you because I do your industry. I know your business and I did my homework.” – Jason Cass
- “Positioning is the most important. Both sides of the coin on that one. If you’re an agent, or you’re that buyer, that’s important to understand that, that person is there for a reason. When I tell you that I have my homework done, I do have my homework done.” – Jason Cass
- “Data is going to make you a smarter agent. But, it’s also going to be able to help you. Agents, the number one thing they say is, I got into this business because I like to help people.” – Jason Cass
