Podcast: Successful Home Sales in Any Market – Bob Schultz

Bob Schultz | The Home Builder Digital Marketing Podcast

This week on The Home Builder Digital Marketing Podcast, Bob Schultz of The International New Home Sales Specialists joins Greg and Kevin to discuss how home builders can have successful home sales regardless of market conditions.

When the home buying market is hot, sales and marketing teams can sometimes ease efforts. Bob explains,

“…when markets are good, there’s a whole lot of stuff you don’t have to do and there’s a whole lot of things you can do incorrectly and still look good by making sales.”

Even though the market is cooling, there are still many sales to be made. Bob says,

“No market ever goes to zero. Never. It never goes to zero. There are always sales being made. No market goes to zero. The bottom line is it’s not what the market does that matters. What matters is what you do within the market conditions in which you find yourselves. What you do to capture a large majority of the sales that could be made.”

Sales results are not the only indicator of whether a home builder has a thriving sales strategy. Bob says,

“Your success in sales if it’s ever judged solely on the results you get, you have no idea what you’re talking about. You have no frame of reference. The sales results are only a matter of, in any market, whether you’re great or not so good, what the market has been willing to give to you or allow you to take. Sales skills and sales performance should be judged against objectives and judged against the process. The process. Selling is about a process.”
