Today, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Matt Easton, the Founder of Leasing University. Having worked in sales my entire career, I found his consultative sales approach extremely interesting as he applies a high level of sales professionalism to more transactional leasing.
Here are some notes from our one hour conversation and why you and your property manager should check out this episode
- How Class B and C properties can “out lease” Class A properties with the right consultative sales approach.
- The #1 question your leasing staff needs to ask - “Why do you want to move?”
- Why your marketing is only as effective as your sales process.
- Why curiosity is the #1 quality Matt looks for when hiring leasing consultants.
- Matt’s thoughts on the best ways to compensate leasing professionals.
- As an owner do you call your properties?
- Why agreeing instead of arguing helps close leases and renewals.
- 64% of non-renewals can be traced back to a maintenance request.
- The dos and don’ts of soliciting online reviews.
