14. Value Statement Exercise Listing Presentation pages are needed to complete this exercise. • Work in pairs. • Review your assigned page of the Weichert Listing Presentation. • Create 2 value statements (fact, bridge, and benefit) for that page. Think of past seller needs, preferences, or situations that will help to formulate the value statement. • You will have 5 minutes. • After 5 minutes, you will your share value statements with the full group.

15. Close Throughout the Presentation • “Is this a service you would want?” • “Would you find this of value?” • “Does this work for you?” • “Is this helpful?”

16. Why is the Value Story so Critical? • You distinguish yourself from the competition. (The competition WANTS to be the same so the only difference becomes commission.) • Helps you overcome the brokerage fee issue. • Seller knows what to expect because you share EVERYTHING you’ll do to sell their home. • Sell Value FIRST. Defer the commission conversation so you can share the full Value Story.
