You read that right. After Season 1 of The Office, they weren’t sure about him. Didn’t offer him a long-term contract.
Let’s pause and let that sink in.
Steve. Freakin’. Carell.
The man who basically carried that show was this close to being replaced.
NBC wasn’t convinced yet. The audience wasn’t hooked.
And Season 1 was… clunky. Not bad, just not… magical. Yet.
But he came back. They kept building. And boom, roasted iconic status.
So, what’s that tell us?
Nobody’s guaranteed. Not even the guy who made “that’s what she said” legendary.
So if you’re sitting there assuming your old clients are locked in for life?
Think again, folks.
People move on. People forget. They get swept up by whoever’s top of mind when they’re ready to buy again.
So if you’re not in their inbox or their texts or their brain when they need a real estate agent?
Well, I’ll let you make that assumption on your own.
Our Real Estate Business Hub helps you stay relevant. Build out your past client touchplan. Don’t lose birthday’s or forget who you dropped that pop-by off to. Get a system for it already! Build the stuff that turns “used you once” into “wouldn’t go anywhere else.”
If NBC can almost let Steve Carell slip through the cracks…
your clients definitely can.
