Ⅱ．時間
私の空き状況:
私は可用性を重視し、購入または販売に関係なく、クライアントができるだけ多くの時間とお金を節約できるようにしています。私はクライアントの時間枠を回避し、通常、月曜日から土曜日の東部標準時間9-5および6-7:30に対応していますが、すでに予約がない限り、場合によっては例外を設けます.午前 6 時からバイヤーとのショーを開始し、場合によっては午後 9 時以降に終了することもあります。私は、水曜日の朝から金曜日の朝までの予約が最も少なくなる傾向があり、通常、私のスケジュールは最も柔軟です。私は自分のキリスト教信仰と自分の家族を真剣に受け止めることが重要であると信じていますが、それでも日曜日の限られた緊急の問題と、月曜から土曜の午後 7 時 30 分以降の緊急の問題に対応することが重要だと考えています。私が抽出した5 週間のサンプルでは、日曜日には新しいリストの入力の 1/47 があり、土曜日には 1/20 しかありませんでした。私の推論の起源は信仰ですが、毎週少なくとも 1 日休むことは、残りの 6 日間でより効果的であることが科学的に裏付けられています1 , 2 , 3 。日曜日と午後 6 時 30 分以降に、より定期的に在庫を確保する必要があるバイヤーとセラーの場合は、その時間帯に通常業務を行っている他のエージェントを紹介できます。キリスト教に関する否定的な経験が原因で、私の信仰の好みが懸念される場合は、Linkedin のプロフィールにある無神論者によるこの推奨事項に注意してください。また、クリスマスやサンクスギビングなど、すべてではありませんが一部の祝日にも休みを取ります。
クライアントの声:
アーロン・ボナンニのような人がFacebook で私を推薦してくれた理由は、緊急の問題と私の平均応答時間にあると思われます。カルロス・リベラも同じグループのレビューで次のように述べています。

Fastest Way to Reach Adam & Contact Methods:
The fastest way to reach Adam is generally going to be via call or text.
While I won't typically respond at 3 AM, I have no problem with clients reaching out in the wee hours of the morning as I turn my phone to silent when sleeping.
Please leave a text or voicemail if you call & I don't pick up at the time.
If you're unable to text, you can email texts to me at 7578799651@tmomail.net & please CC agarrett@ggrva.com .
Holidays:
I also aim to abstain from work on Thanksgiving, the evening of Christmas Eve, Christmas, the evening of December 5th (my wife's birthday), the evening of December 9th (my wife & my anniversary), and certain other times that vary by year save limited urgent matters (see exceptions here). In fact, an agent working all holidays and never taking vacations is actually hurting their own business & the clients that they serve due to the positive impact of rest, including holidays, on their work (1,2,3). In fact, I would argue that due to the extremely low volume of listings input on Christmas Day last year, 2021 (0 in REIN MLS, the primary MLS of Hampton Roads), combined with the high volume of buyers that stop looking in November/December every year, as well as the high number of other agents taking off the same day, it was the best day of the year that an agent could take off.
I believe that it's critical to take my Christian faith and my own family seriously but still respond to limited urgent matters on Sunday & urgent matters after 7:30 PM Mon-Sat. In a 5 week sample I pulled, Sundays had 1/47th of the new listings input, & Saturdays only had 1/20th. While the origin of my reasoning is faith, taking at least a day off each week is backed by science to be more effective in the remaining 6 days 1,2,3. For buyers & sellers who need more regular availability on Sundays & after 6:30 PM for showings & extended communication, I can refer you to other agents who regularly work those times. In the event that my faith preferences are a concern due to negative experiences with Christianity, please note this recommendation by an atheist on my Linkedin profile that should alleviate some concerns. I also take off on some but not all holidays, i.e. Christmas & Thanksgiving.
