#22 The Unsellable Floor Plan

December 3, 2009 by johnparker · Comments 

I was sick as a dog this day….so I did not complete this dare. But it sure reminded me of some things. There is a floorplan we just built for the first time in my community that I really do not like very much. I have steared away from it…but this dare or chapter has helped me to start rethinking my attitude toward it. I think it would be a great idea for me to contact my sales manager and possibly even the architect to discuss this floorplan and even our other floorplans. I say way to many times that “I” like this or “I” like that. I think knowing what was the thinking behind some of our floorplans will help me stop saying that and start using more neutral statments and we statements….as well as better explain the reasoning on why we chose to design the floorplan this way or that way.

      Good point on the "we" or neutral comments John. I couldn't agree more.
