Successful Real Estate ISA Training

If you’re a real estate inside sales agent, you know that this job is not for the faint of heart. It’s tough. You have to be in the trenches day after day, making countless phone calls, often facing unending rejections, and basically constantly fighting an uphill battle with people who don’t want to talk to you. And without ISAs continually converting on their calls and bringing in new leads, real estate teams and real estate companies can’t survive.

Not a lot of pressure, right?

Insufficient ISA Training

Adding to the problem is that many real estate companies don’t have sufficient inside sales training to set their ISAs up for success. You might get handed a script, told some basic closing techniques or objection handling tips, and then you are thrown to the wolves and start making calls. In this situation it is left up to you to figure out the call strategies, language patterns, and closing techniques that you find are the most conducive to success.

That can be fine. Successful ISAs are tenacious and persistent by nature, and if they can stick it out for a few months then maybe they’ll get the hang of it on their own. But many won’t, and for those who do, this method is not a very efficient way to build an effective real estate inside sales team. It’s akin to throwing stuff against a wall and seeing what sticks.

A better way to train an ISA team or train yourself is to get more scientific about it. What actually works and what doesn’t, and how, specifically, can I implement certain guidelines and practices into my calls to vastly increase my conversion rates.

What Makes A Successful Inside Sales Agent?

In simple terms, a successful ISA is someone who can have productive and persuasive sales conversations over the phone. In other words, they can convince leads to take action. For most ISAs in most situations, this means getting the lead to agree to set an appointment and actually show up to the meeting with an agent.

Common traits associated with successful ISAs are as follows:

• Extroverted (or at least not afraid to talk to people over the phone)
• Being able to read people over the phone
• Comfortable being relatively assertive and forward
• Pay close attention to detail

Those are all important traits. However, it would be a mistake to think that you can’t be a successful real estate ISA if you feel you don’t possess one or any of them. Because all of these can be learned. And to some extent, they have to be learned by everyone decides to become an inside sales agent.
