How many agents out there are secret agents? By that I mean do you wear name tags or corporate apparel when you are out and about? I have to admit, I don't always wear my name tag, and I don't have a lot of corporate apparel. I have business clothes, and try to dress like a professional, there is just nothing that says that I am a realtor. One of the aspects of the training that I blogged on yesterday was that we need to be agents when we are out and about.
The other aspect of wearing your profession, is that you have to be prepared to be enthusiastic about your market. I know that when I do remember to wear my name tag, I usually get one person that wants to know how real estate is doing. I will admit, I wasn't as prepared as I needed to be, so that is a new leaf that I am working on turning over: wearing my name tag, and wanting someone to ask me about real estate, so that I can talk to them. Have a Great Weekend!

One of my mentors always said: "A closed mouth equals a closed business." If we don't talk about our business - and wear our name badges or other identifying items that show we're in real estate, then we are indeed secret agents.
You are certainly on target as you never know where you will pick up a client. I wear my badge most places and recently had someone in the airport waiting lounge ask for my assistance. Others overhead and soon I had a 2nd contact.
