This book is full of salesman scripts and manipulation. I was disappointed in the book. I dont think the days of just being honest are totally gone and I dont think you should have to have a script to answer your clients every questions, Why not just tell them the truth??? The book had a couple of good prospecting ideas and was somewhat motivating, but all in all it's a good book for a used car salesman.

Real life skills for you to be a SMART sales person.

A Five Stars book.
This is the best real estate book for all level sales person from new to experienced sales person.
This book reveals all the real life skills for you to stand out of the usual sales persons.
I personally like the book hits the key points without lengthy wordings.
It is easy to read, and easy to implement.
You will learn the skills for prospecting, farming, direct marketing, leads generation,
and how to convert the leads to appointment, listing signed, then selling to closing.
The important thing is "do you practise those skills into your real life?"
After you implement those skills into your real life, you will soon become a SMART sales person in your area.
This is the top one book that I asked all my new sales persons to read it over in their first week,
and review with me once a week for their implementation.
I also recommended all the experienced sales persons to review it over and over again.
Each time we review the book, we will find some key skills that are important for our success.
I am happy to share my experience with you for how good this book is.

This is a very good book. The author gives very good advice for novice to professional real estate agents. I learned some good tips and adopted some great techniques from this book. The techniques work the more you apply them.

After reading this book four times I applied the principles described in this book and got myself three marketable listings in eight days. My creative ideas for farming postcards are more attractive and far funnier than any sold in catalogs. I was emailing, talking in person, and telephoning prospects from seven in the morning until seven at night up to seven days a week.

My broker called me aside and said, "Marcia, I have to let you go, you are so aggressive you are scaring everyone in this office. I am afraid you are frightening customers."

I had only been in the business three months so I am now broke, selling plasma and cleaning a few houses. As a single mom, facing a destitute Christmas is hard, but I keep smiling. I will save up enough to start over again: do the same things Darryl taught me at another office, (only under my broker, fellow agents and the support staff's radar screen). If you are an new agent who knows how to hide your light under a bushel basket, buy this book!!!

If your looking for a quick read that scratches the surface of a lot of real estate basics, you'll like this book. If your looking for something more in depth and detailed, skip this one and go straight to Tom Hopkins "How to Master the Art of Listing and Selling Real Estate". I may have enjoyed "How to Become a Power Agent.." more if I had not already read the Hopkins book.

I thank my lucky stars and my friend, a long time real estate attorney who formerly worked for the California Department of Real Estate, for connecting me to "How To Become a Power Agent." Having been a licensed real estate agent in vacation properties for 6 years, last year I was desperately searching for training material to help me segway to the residential market in a new area. I received an email from my friend simply stating, "If I was going to read 1 book on real estate, it would be this one", with a very favorable review attached from the local Monterey Herald. Upon taking his advise I found the book to be both well written and well organized, easy to reference, with good, solid information on every aspect of my career. Unlike other books I had found, this book had up-to-date material that was applicable to current market conditions and technologies. The "how to" strategies offered excellent structure and form for new techniques, while encouraging me to "make them my own" by infusing my own style suited to my circumstance. Anyone with the least amount of creativity and enthusiasm for their vocation will find, as I did, the material is extremely useful for all clients from the first time buyer to the sophisticated investor, through all client service phases from prospecting to building lifetime relationships, and for all levels of expertise from novice agent to experienced veteran broker. I went on to commit to Darryl's yearlong "Power Agent" seminar with exhilarating results! And this is the book that started it all! Thank you Darryl for your service and commitment to our industry
