A very wise person once told me I should alway return messages and emails, even if I don'y want to talk to that person. It seemed like a good idea, so I always have. But why is it a good idea? Lets take a look at it, shall we?
In our business, or any business for that matter, our reputation and professionalism will always get tangled into our success. If a person has a negative impression of you and your name comes up in conversation with others, what do you think he will say about you? Probably not nice things.
By our always being the good, nice person, always returning calls and emails, and that's not to say that we always have to give people good news, our contacts and clients will know that they can depend on us. Positive impressions = positive $$$, negative impressions=negative $$$. No one wants to work with a flake.
What do you think?

I think you should come to Texas and start giving seminars on this topic - I'd pay for some people to go!!
Like your philosophy and 'karma-esque' beliefs behind it - this hits home big time.

Nathan- I love Real Estate but it is MY DREAM to be a Corporate Trainer/Speaker. But for now, send your people to me in Honolulu and I will talk with them!
