TOGETHER WITH LIBERTAS
Harris Real Estate Daily
By Tim & Julie Harris · January 26, 2026
👋 Hi, {{first_name|real estate agents}}! When extreme winter weather hits, something unusual happens.
Everyone is home.
Roads are closed.
Schools are closed.
No one is going to work.
Distractions drop—and availability goes up.
This creates one of the best opportunities all year to reconnect with your database in a natural, non-salesy way. Extreme weather gives you permission to reach out, check in, and be useful.
This is the moment to:
Call and text your entire database
Ask how people are doing
See if they need anything
Show genuine care and concern
🎧 Listen to the full podcast by clicking the audio player below, or stream it directly on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!
Be prepared before you start dialing:
Have local emergency numbers ready
Have your preferred service providers on hand
Be ready to make introductions, not sales pitches
Make a clear commitment:
Plan to be on the phone for the next 2–3 days while people dig out, find their driveways again, and deal with winter messes.
Pop-bys work especially well during moments like this because people are more receptive to help, comfort, and human connection. This isn’t about selling—it’s about staying present.

❄️ 5. Why This Works Long-Term
Extreme weather creates emotional memory
People remember who checked in
People remember who helped
People remember who showed up
These moments don’t create instant transactions—but they compound trust, which is what drives future listings, referrals, and repeat business.
🔑 Conclusion: Show Up When It’s Easy to Hide
Most people pull back during chaos.
Smart agents lean in.
Winter storms don’t slow your business down unless you let them. In fact, they create rare windows where attention is available, conversations are welcomed, and genuine connection matters more than clever marketing.
If you:
Pick up the phone
Check on people
Be useful
Stay visible without being salesy
