They don&#8217;t need to be told we care. They can feel it. And when we serve them with skill and expertise, they&#8217;ll sing our praises and spread the word about our work for years to come.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\" data-sourcepos=\"7:1-7:453;641-1093\">The\u00a0prevailing trend in our field, though, is to tell people about our value instead \u2014 by being everywhere online, all the time, and shining the spotlight on ourselves. Two common examples: celebrating every accepted offer on social media, even though there is much more work to do before closing.\u00a0And posting selfies with clients at the closing table, even though some clients would rather not have <em>their moment<\/em> shared online.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\" data-sourcepos=\"7:1-7:453;641-1093\">This kind of\u00a0marketing might land a few extra deals here and there. But over time, it\u00a0comes at a cost, too.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\" data-sourcepos=\"9:1-9:146;1095-1240\">Here&#8217;s why: some clients start to wonder if we&#8217;re thinking more about ourselves than we are about them. And once that doubt creeps in, loyalty erodes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\" data-sourcepos=\"11:1-11:270;1242-1511\">When we show our value through the service we provide \u2014 and stay genuinely in touch afterward \u2014 clients stay with us for a lifetime. When we tell them, over and over, by keeping the spotlight on ourselves,\u00a0some will quietly decide not to refer us or work with us again.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\" data-sourcepos=\"13:1-13:97;1513-1609\">Think about an agent who once impressed you. Was it something they said \u2014 or something they did?<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\" data-sourcepos=\"15:1-15:138;1611-1748\">Which approach resonates more with you?
