In an online networking group I belong to, where there’s a Question of the Week as the topic, a recent question was: What are some excellent ice breakers to start a conversation at a networking event? I used the ‘What’s your pickle?’ as mine and had to explain - they loved it. Here are some from other members:
What brings you to this particular event? This gets the other person talking about themself.
Ask them to expand on what they do or what’s their biggest challenge?
Ask how they got to where they are now.
Ask them about a favorite client or what was a favorite vacation? This gives them something positive to discuss.
Ask questions about their journey, as well as open-ended questions.
How did they get into their industry? Pay attention to their answers and go from there.
Presenter: Kurt
Kurt passed around handouts of new real estate policies for buyers and sellers, as well as all of the materials he provides to either the buyer or seller to help them with the entire process.
He explained the role of listing agents and buyers agents, what’s different now with the new rules and regulations and much more.
