I have been spending a lot more time with people at market opinions, being more thorough and taking my time and it feels good, it feels more real. I guess over the years your days get so full because you just naturally get busier and it’s easy to move quickly from one appoint to the next and maybe not nurture relationships as much as you could. I am pretty keen to just work with selected clients now so I can give them the Mat Steinwede Experience. It will become my brand and the only way I can do it is provide a limited amount of owners with an amazing experience every time. I was with a person today who told me a story about Australia’s best architect, the person he bought his property off (which was a beachfront that I sold to him) called this architect because he was the best and he said to the architect “I would like you to design a home on this prized position, are you interested?” The architect said yes I am interested but you will have to wait 4 years. I was like WOW now there is someone who knows his capacity and I think that’s what becoming the best is about, doing a great job and also knowing when to say no. I feel that by working with a selected number of owners it will give me the space to create raving fans every time and I’m sure it will provide the owners with a premium result every time.
On a different note, I was watching a show called Holly’s World tonight and it was ridiculous but I couldn’t stop watching it. If you have nothing to do one night and you have fox, watch it. It doesn’t really have any story line at all but camera’s just follow her and her assistant around all day and film stuff. It’s so silly it’s comedy!
