Is Anyone in Real Estate Thinking about the Commitment Curve?
This may be a bit too geeky, but is anyone thinking about the commitment curve?

Carrie Jones, one of the best community builders I know, has some thoughts worth reading here.
How are you thinking about long term engagement, relationship building, and community building?

If/when they reach out to us, at that point we focus on building rapport with them by getting to know them even better.
We feel the better the rapport, the better chance we have they use us.

Posted at 10:17h, 12 MaySuper interesting question, Drew. Can’t wait to see more responses. In real estate, I imagine customers aren’t “coming back” again and again to buy more real estate (except at the highest income levels perhaps), but there could be enormous value in having the top of your commitment curve be an ambassador program or expert program of sorts to spread the word in specific communities.
