"We're watching a lot of agents, a lot of people, that are seeing this as negative. They're looking at this as something that is happening to us." “I will say I have a lot of great people that I coach that are saying things like, “I'm releasing the energy on it. I'm moving forward with my business. I can't spend any more time worried thinking about it.” "This is where we really need to own this, going into this marketplace." “At the end of the day, people will pay for your services. They’ve just got to understand what your services are.”   Links: www.TheNinjaSellingPodcast.com Email us at TSW@TheNinjaSellingPodcast.com Leave a voicemail at (208) MY-NINJA   Ninja Selling www.NinjaSelling.com @ninjasellingofficial   Ninja Coaching: www.NinjaCoaching.com @ninja.coaching   Ninja Events www.NinjaSelling.com/Events   Garrett garrett@ninjacoaching.com @ninjaredding   Matt matt@ninjacoaching.com @matthewjbonelli   The Ninja Selling Podcast Facebook Group Ninja Coaching Book Study
