Lulu Marketplace

Often when we are selling to people, they are sitting still. Perhaps they are in a showroom, a shop or an office and they can concentrate fully on what the salesperson is saying. The salesperson can also sit or stand still, with all their notes and information at hand. Estate agents do not have these luxuries - they have to sell in all sorts of strange locations. They may have to talk in the middle of a large garden or a derelict house with no chairs, no desk or they may find themselves in a luxury mansion. The property may be on a main road with loud lorries rushing past. The clients will be looking around and will become distracted very easily. If selling outside the wind can blow your voice away or if in a large empty house the echo can swallow up your words. These estate agents need to have exceptional communication skills if they are to find people their dream home and produce first rate selling figures.
