## Resource

"Wet Blanket" might not immediately bring an idea to mind, but we would argue once you hear our definition at least one listing or client will come to mind immediately. In this conversation, we get into the "wet blanket" listings that quietly wreck your business, your energy, and your life. One of the beautiful things of this business is that you get to choose who you work with. You don't have to take every listing, The ones you say no to make room for the ones you were meant to serve. It comes down to laying out your process clearly upfront so the seller can opt in with full understanding, chasing what Matt calls the "unified yes" (where their yes and your yes are the same yes), and being willing to refer out the ones that aren't in alignment. Done right, you stop dragging comforters through your day and start running a business that actually fuels your life.
