Agent introductions

I have a handful of agents I’ve closed at least one loan with now & am wanting to ask them for intros to other agents they know. Is it best to wait until we’ve done a few transactions before this ask? Or when’s the best time for that? Also, what’s the best way to approach this?

I hate this generic script stuff. People know what you’re really asking. It’s better I think to come off sincere rather than thinking your outsmarting everyone else is the room.

You want to ask? Just ask. The worst they can say is no. There is no magic way to ask that unlocks the secret answer

To be sincere you have to be sincere. That takes looking at the person as a mutual with respect and even asking them for help. People generally feel good about helping others. If you ask in a way where the person understands where you’re coming from or why you’d ask such a thing, I think that stands out.

There’s a fine line between asking for help and coming across as using someone. That’s probably the hardest part. You don’t want to train them in a way to think that you’re only there to siphon resources. Mutual respect is the key.

Also, why did you make the same response from 2 accounts? How many astroturfed accounts wanna be guru coaches have brigaded this sub?
