Quotes:

"We too often want to skip over it. We don't want to take time, but really, it's that piece right there that starts to set you apart from the other agents and why they go, oh, yeah, this is why we're talking to her. She was referred. We're checking her out, but we're being referred to her because look at the professionalism, and she's taking the time to build that rapport, build that relationship." - Kira Sikes

"Get out there and meet as many people as possible." - Kira Sikes
