Let's Talk Retail with Stacey Mooney of RetailLive!

Beth sits down with Stacey Mooney of RetailLive and they discuss the state of Retail Trends throughout their markets.

Stacey Mooney is the Founder of RetailLive!

The Retail Leasing Podcast Ep 40: Ch "56 Treat Every Rejection as a Reflection of Them & Not You"

The Retail Leasing Podcast Ep 40: Ch "56 Treat Every Rejection as a Reflection of Them & Not You"

Today we are going to talk about chapter 56 of The Retail Leasing Playbook, "Treat Every Rejection as a Reflection of Them and Not You." 

So I'm sure you've heard this before, but when prospects reject you, it's not that they're rejecting you, they're just rejecting your property.  

If you're having an emotional reaction to when people reject the idea, this is going be a tough business for you, so you need to get tougher and not take rejection personally.   

If you are having problems with rejection, read Jia Jiang's book, "Rejection Proof, How I Beat Fear and Became Invincible Through a Hundred Days of Rejection." It's hilarious what this guy puts himself through to try to get tougher and deal with rejection.  The other thing that I did early on in my career, I think this is a Tom Hopkins suggestion, he was the first, self-improvement guru I started following and he changed my life. But he had this thing where he said, evaluate the cost of each rejection.   

So I listened to Tom and when, and this was early on when I was canvassing for office leasing, very boring, and I would leave each of the offices and in my mind I would go, thanks for the 30 bucks! Because every store that you, that you get a no to is 30 bucks. And when you get a hundred of 'em, you're gonna get your deal and the $3,000. So for every no you get, put a dollar amount to it and then in your head, in your mind, go, thanks for the 30 bucks, thanks for the 50 bucks, thanks for the 10 bucks, whatever it is.  

If you like this podcast, please share it on any kind of social platform you're on. Let's get a lot more people listening 'cuz the more that we improve and get better as leasing agents, the more rents we can charge and the more commissions we'll all make. And we will be able to provide more value to our tenants, our landlords, and ourselves.  

Happy Leasing!

It's All About the Follow Up - Tips on how to bring a deal back to life

It's All About the Follow Up - Tips on how to bring a deal back to life

In Commercial Real Estate - whether you're doing a deal or trying to get someone to respond to an email - it's all about the follow-up.

I'm currently working on a deal to acquire another shopping center and it wasn't going exactly to plan. The deal started going stale and I was willing to walk away. Following up with one of the partners in the deal was what was needed and we look like we're back on track.

It's all about the follow-up and not giving up. It's also about being willing to walk away and explaining your intentions and why.

Then I had a client who contacted me because she wasn't getting the results she wanted via email.

In your follow up emails, you MUST provide value. Remember, email shouldn't be MEMail. It should provide value to the reader.

I hope these "dead deal" tips help you.

If You Give You Must Get | Leasing Tip of the Day

If You Give You Must Get | Leasing Tip of the Day

If you give, you must get.

I know many of my friends in retail leasing are seeing high leasing velocity but let me remind you: If you give you must get.  You don't want to set the expectation that you'll just give and give and give. Don't be so anxious to get the deal done because that will train the tenant to ask again.

Okay, Beth but I don't just want to say, "No."

Sure. Here's what you do.

You give them options that benefit you; whether it's 10 cents or 20 cents more per square foot or whatever, you're negotiating so you're not on the losing end of the deal. Let them make the decision.

What types of "If you give you must get" situations have you been in? What did you do? I'd love to hear about it and maybe you can help someone else in that exact situation.

Happy Leasing!

Rental Rates and Tenant Mix: What Should Leasing Agents Be Looking at in 2022?

Rental Rates and Tenant Mix: What Should Leasing Agents Be Looking at in 2022?

Commercial Real Estate is not just on fire in South Florida, it's on fire everywhere.

So, let's talk rental rates. There are a few factors you need to consider including CPI.

Now, once you're done thinking about that, think about tenant mix. Do you have a good tenant mix and while one tenant may bring in better rent in cost per square foot, they may not be the best mix for the rest of your tenants.

If you want to take your leasing career to the next level, check out my books "The Retail Leasing Playbook" and "Don't Say No for the Prospect" on my website.
