Be Professional and Kind to Other Agents

This is a post I shouldn’t even have to write, but too often I see agents just being downright rude to one another. Some will bark orders or demand the sun and the moon from you, others will insult you for everything from your appearance to your success. Then of course there are agents with the “why should I do anything for you?” attitude and others who have nothing but dirty ulterior motives of stealing your clients and your business.

If you find yourself in an office full of these types, it can be very hard to stay positive about your business. It can also be equally as hard to not lose your temper or start snapping back at them. If you are one of these “not so nice agents”, chances are you’re not even aware how your actions and words might be reflecting on you.

So reckon about how you act in the office: Do you show up in blue jeans? Do you whisper about people behind their back? Do you act like you’re the only person in the office that matters?

I hope none of my readers have these problems, but remember to be professional and kind. It can go a long way, and maybe it will even rub off on the other not-so-proffessional-or-kind agents. If need be, consider changing offices or even having a meeting with your office manager.
