Hi Justin I was talking about your methodology recently, and I reserved a reservation, which I wanted to share with you. One person said: ok, so the sales...

I hear you, Justin, but what can we schedule if we don't have a process? I don't understand why you make this assertion. What do we schedule? showing up?...
Justin Why one sales coordinator per two sales people? Why can't there be one for all? Isn´t this requirement too expensive? Bye! =|JRM: Sure, some of our...
Hi Justin, I am just seeking clarification on the role of the sales coordinator. When you talk about scheduling, is that simply filling out the diary, or is it...

=|JRM: So how, exactly, are salespeople's schedules subordinated to the finite production capacity? |= Instead of selling "houses" as all the other home...
I'm often told by potential clients - in answer to the question, 'on what basis do you compete for customers?' - that 'customer service is our point of...

Take a look at the attached photo. It's a picture of some real estate listings in the window of an agent's office in Miami (USA), where I am right now. Ugly,...
Justin, The window says to me, disorganised and unprofessional. Also note there is no grouping or segmentation to the target market. $2.9 m to $750k? Maybe...
