Hello, question? the 4 questions we ask on a single email or when they reply one by one?

Hi @monica-deanda! Good question! One by one. When you connect with them… send Q1 —–> then when they respond send Q2 and so on!

Great info! Just saw the thread for 4 Trojan Horse questions. Duh! Was a little confused about how to send the questions. LOL!

I’m using Kent’s 4 questions. Getting lots of responses and talking with people has increased 900% in linkedin this week:)

Hi @negeen-dargahi

Have I missed a sound cloud or a video somewhere explaining who we are asking these 4 questions to?

I understand we are asking connections, I’m fuzzy on if I’m asking the “old”people that I’m already connected with, new connection requests of me or my connection requests to my new target group?

Please also let me know where I can find that specific answer to my question (which Lesson) 🙂

Thanks,

Perfect and thank you for your quick response. As soon as I posted my 4 Questions and moved on to the next section….wallah, there were the videos etc…to my question 🙂 Now all the pieces are fitting together better for me .

I don’t want to think about things too long, I’m just moving right along 😉

Thanks,

Veda

@sandra-thigpen ^ check out this thread for 4 questions for realtors!

@ann-sansbury scroll to the very top and read the post from @kent-littlejohn 🙂

Does anyone has a listing presentation that can share with me? I have never persue sellers.

I’m wondering about all the agents that I have in my LinkedIn. Should I delete them?  I think that the out of area agents are Ok to have, for referrals, but local ones, It is weird.

What if the other people (non Agents) are not interested in purchasing a home in the wine country? What do I talk to them about?

Hi Negeen,

I’ve been extremely busy, I didn’t have time this past week to even listen to my live chats. I’ve was driving all over San Antonio with potential clients.

For my 4 questions, I’ve been trying something different that I think it’s working for me.

Q1. Hi NAME —- thank you so much for accepting my friendship request. What is your core business?

If they say that they work as an NHC ( New Home Sales Consultant ) then, I tell them I’m a realtor, and I work with many builders and I bring them, clients. What is your location and what kind of Specs do you have available at the moment? Do you have lots available?

If they say that they are inspectors, then, I tell them that I’m a realtor and it’s always good to know inspectors since we keep all the inspectors busy from all the homes we sell. I tell them that I’m going to add them to my contact list so I can give out their names and if they know someone in need of a Realtor if they can please give them my name in return.

Q2. Investors, once you flip the house, do you have your own realtors that you work with or would you let me list the house for you?

They say that most of the time they have their own team. Whenever you need my help I’ll be more than happy to help you.

Q3. Lenders, I have clients that are 1st time home buyers do you have a special package or incentives for them that they might benefit from?

Would you refer me to some of your clients that don’t have realtors working for them?

Q4. What is your mobile? What is the best time I can call you?

Q5. Do you have an e-mail so I can send you some information?

Would you let me know if this is an improvement from my questions before? I was so confused because the question that Halle was saying I didn’t see how it will benefit me. Thanks, Neggen.

I’m in Lesson 3 and I’m wondering if it’s my computer or if it’s the set up of the lesson but the into recorded phone call seems to be exactly the same as the video 2 of that lesson, so I’m missing the info that video 2 was meant to provide. Can I find that somewhere else?

Thanks,

Korinna

3. Wonderful. How many years have you lived there? Great! Let’s chat for a few minutes, I have a fairly large network that might benefit you.

Hi @jeanette-uptain, nice work!

For Q2, take out “Interesting” as your response. It sounds scrutinizing. Instead, respond with “Perfect!”

Q4 will actually be “Great! Let’s chat for a few minutes, I have a fairly large network that might benefit you.”

I think your numbers were mixed up. Regardless, it all looks great!!

1. Great to connect (Name). What is your core business?
2. Perfect! Do you live in Ventura County?
3.  Wonderful. How many years have you lived there?
4. “Great! Let’s chat for a few minutes, I have a fairly large network that might benefit you.”
5.  What works best for you? Tomorrow at 11:00 am or tomorrow at 1:00 pm?
6.  What is your mobile #?
7.  “Great! I will call you tomorrow at 1:00 pm.”

Hi @jeanette-uptain, this looks great! Please don’t post a new question in this thread – please start a NEW POST in the main level of the appropriate forum.  Click SUPPORT FORUM on the left, then scroll until you get to your topic and put a post THERE instead.  We will get to it faster!!

Thank you!!

@negeen-dargahi  @kent-littlejohn

Since beginning the Program in January, and then getting “side-lined” by the new modules and some other professional training…

I have continued using the original first question and then moving right into connecting by phone or face-to-face conversations. In my Real Estate practice focusing on Seniors, I find that a lot of my clients are going to come from referrals from other associated professions, with whom I’ve made a connection on LinkedIn. I have made a LOT of contacts that I keep up with in my sphere, but I could use some suggestions to connect with others who ARE the client or family of the client more directly.

I’m grateful for any guidance!

Hi – I just read Kents 4 questions…and I like them , of course, and prefer to use them

@negeen-dargahi  @alison-liddic  @kent-littlejohn

Quick questions, sorry I was not sure who to point this question too.

I am sending out my 4 questions, I am a realtor.

if I am targeting lawyers and/or accountants do I ask a different question than hey how long have you lived here?  Should I ask how long have you been practicing??

Thanks!

-Melissa Homewood

HI I’m super behind and trying to catch up. So for the 4 questions I am sending to my contacts question #1 then waiting for a response then send a reply with question 2 and keep repeating until I have asked all 4 questions?

Q1: Great to connect ‘NAME of person that I’m connected with’… what’s your core business?

Q2: Perfect! Do you live in Virginia area? 

Q3: Fantastic. How many years have you lived here? 

That’s great! Let’s chat for a few minutes. I have a fairly big network that may benefit you. 

Q4: What are a few time windows that you have tomorrow? 

2pm works perfect 

Q5: What’s your Cell number? 

Great. I’ll call you at 2pm. 

Talk soon,

April

Hey everyone!

Before I post my 4 questions – I’m curious if anyone in here has tested out automation tools for LinkedIn? (i.e, DuxSoup, Leonard)

Using the connection with a personalized message PRIOR to ever asking the first question.

If so, would love to hear of your successes with connecting & how you’re positioning yourself to get a response.

Cheers,

Spencer

Hi,

As I am starting to reach out to my connections, two things occur to me. Most every contact states clearly in their headline what it is they do, not all but most. It seems silly to ask them what their core business is! what else should I ask for question #1?

Secondly, if my contacts are local, it also seems silly to ask them if they live here as it is clearly stated in their headline and most people don’t commute here for work. What should I ask for question #2 in this situation?

Thirdly, I am connected with a number of other realtors from around the county who very likely might want to or do own a home in my area, what is a question to ask them to open the conversation?

Lastly, I know many people who I am connected to from years in the valley professionally. What would be a good question to ask them to open a conversation? Obviously I am trying to find out if they are considering selling but don’t want to ask them that in the chat, so what else can I ask them that are the right questions to lead to a phone call?
