Everyone has different goals, needs…

Was a little caught off guard with this one. Got a call from Damian asking me to share my thoughts on dressing "professionally" and how it might affect my real estate biz. I used to rebel against dressing up just to appease potential clients. I eventually realized that, as a client service pro, I should always be representing my client's best inter…
