Answer the phone! March 17, 2009

Here it is St. Patrick’s Day 2009 and…

We found a property listed today — not far from Evansville, and just a short walk from the Ohio River — and when we tried to contact the owner, as specified in the ad… he wouldn’t answer the phone.

And he hasn’t called back all day. Odd way to manage your property, wouldn’t you say?

When you advertise something that people will need to contact you about — for example, a home for sale — you should answer the phone! If you ask people to get in touch with you, let them!

Okay, there will be times that you’ll be away during the day… maybe for a grandkid’s ball game or even a walk along the riverfront… but you should check your messages and get back with the people who have called you as you asked!
