10 Sales Steps to a Perfect Tour

This is the most complete and perfect formula for creating a perfect tour.
Blend & Extend
Tens of thousands of today’s tenants are trying to find creative ways to reduce their cost of occupancy, while meeting their continued business obligations. The Mend, Blend and Extend is the quantitative best practice that should be used. Whether you’re on the user side or the landlord side, we will examine the right amount of Blend – then we will then discuss the numerous options on the Extend. (The recommended financial calculator for this webinar is the HP10BII).

In this session you and your team learn the five critical components of an effective presentation and understand what information should be included in each component. When you use this formula for presenting, we guarantee that you and your team will win more presentations in 2010. This session will help you change the game.
Negotiating To Win
Can you tell when a negotiating tactic is being used on you? Do you have an arsenal of tactics you can rely on in any situation? There are dozens of negotiation opportunities in every transaction. This session not only identifies those opportunities, it identifies negotiating tactics most often used, teaches ways to disarm them, overcome objections, and focus on strategies, skills and tools designed to close more deals in less time.
Financial Literacy
A thorough mastery of financial procedures, investment principles and techniques, property evaluation, cost comparison, forecasting income and analyzing investment potential is essential for today's real estate practitioner striving to meet clients' ever-increasing complex needs.
Moreover, positional negotiating alone does not identify how to structure a deal to satisfy both sides of the table. Financial Literacy demonstrates how today's practitioner can use the most current financial strategies to meet client needs and do more deals.
In addition, Financial Literacy includes identifying financial components of occupancy, analyzing lease proposals, quantifying the Present Value of the owner's position as well as Tenant's Occupancy Cost. By demonstrating the power of Argus - a financial software program developed for the real estate industry - and using HP10B calculators provided by The Lipsey Company, this hands-on, interactive course discusses "lease vs. own" and its effects on differential cash flows, financial statements, capital access, liquidity and corporate growth, and much more.
To meet the financial objectives of their clients, it is critical that the practitioner is aware of market developments and possess the specialized financial tools of analysis necessary to cope with ever changing market conditions. Financial Literacy is no longer unique to the number-crunchers; these are skills that are required throughout the organization.
