BOOK RECOMMENDATION AND WORDS OF WISDOM. GOSSIP, By Lori Palatnik with Bob Burg. Available at http://www.amazon.com/. Here are the words of wisdom from the book:
GOSSIP IS LIKE A FIRED BUILLET
ONCE YOU HEAR THE SOUND,
YOU CAN'T TAKE IT BACK!
Evil speech can destroy friendships, break up marriages and ruin businesses. Gossip - negative talk, put-downs, rumors, accusations - not only hurts the person being talked about; it also hurts the person speaking and the person listening. (When listening and not saying anything you are giving tacit approval of what is being discussed.) In short, gossip has a negative impact on everyone! Yet, despite these negative consequences, gossip has been around since the beginnings of humankind and continues to be a popular but destructive pastime.
Throughout this timely and enjoyable book (GOSSIP), you will learn what the bible and Jewish wisdom have to say regarding speech and how their teachings relate to our world today. You’ll also learn via real-life examples how to break the gossip habit and how to teach others to do the same. The authors will help you develop skills to improve your life by getting along better with others; mending old hurts and reclaiming lost relationships; keeping good relationships from going bad through hurtful words; and strengthening relationships you already have by speaking in a more encouraging and productive manner.

SERVICE LEADS TO SALES; IF YOU KNOW HOW TO ACT AND HOW TO ASK, another great article by Jeffrey Gitomer. I would like to add, use autoresponder email responses carefully. The customer sends you an email, if the customer does not hear immediately from you he or she knows you are not at your computer and doesn’t need to take up his or her time reading an automatically sent message tell him or her that you are not at your computer. It’s just one more needless email to read: http://www.gitomer.com/articles/ViewPublicArticle.html?key=ajcdMibak3NrXxsR8PLzsA%3D%3D

HOW ARE YOU HANDLING SELLERS WHO WANT TO OVERPRICE THEIR HOMES by Paula Hathaway. This is really a good article that applies to all of us. You may also want to consider when representing a buyer that you ask the listing agent if you can present your Agreement to Purchase directly to the Sellers. By so doing you will be able to justify the price being offered provided it is justified by current market statistics. You can always ask, the listing agent does not have to agree. http://activerain.com/blogsview/1464700/how-are-you-handling-sellers-who-want-you-to-over-price-their-homes-
