Put Your Foot Down With Clients Do you value your time? Well, if your clients are more in control of it than you are, then you don’t. When you drop everything to run out and show a home to a pro-spect whose last name you don’t even know, you’re tell-ing that prospect that you have no boundaries or stand-ards for your time. Here’s how to do business on your terms while still providing your best service. Realtormag.realtor.org
