They have been developed, and many of our people have them memorized, others follow them step by step.

I did many moons ago but now I find they're not necessary for me. My systems are in place.  

For 4 decades I've completed my 6 important things to do list.  Each night before going to bed I would complete the list (which I found helped me to sleep better) but now I don't need to write it down.

Yes, definitely. It helps me stay organized and gets me to not have scraps of paper everywhere with notes on them! I found my buyers and sellers didn't really use them, so I have reminders to them as time goes by that I send.

To do lists and checklists.

Absolutely!! It helps tremendously!!

Jeff,

Yes, we use a collaboration software that we love.  A

Yes absolutely as a mortgage professional I use them every single day can't leave home with out them.

Yes, many checklists. 

I love checklists for business and life!

we always provide a checklist for our sellers.... always....

I have my own checklists as a stager that include things like giving client the invoice (lol), and I also have checklists for the client, including the obvious things to address in the home as well as the not so obvious things that will keep them in action when the emotions begin to bog them down.

As Susan Emo  reported,  when it's on paper, it's not in their head bothering them, keeping them awake at night.  Actually, when they are falling asleep is when they remember things.  I tell them to keep the checklist and pencil handy by the bed so when they recall something, they can note it and get on with falling asleep.  Checklists are not an indication of weakness; they are mature self-managment to create $ucce$$.  (Hmm. This looks like a blog to me.... :  )

Checklists are helpful especially with all the forms needed to complete transaction

Yes, checklists are very helpful!

Yes, they are all in my CRM according to transaction type and status at the time.

I need to.....

yes because working with mulitple clients if you have a checklist and they call to get an update then you can say this was just completed and this is what we are working on now when you pull their file up

Sometimes.

Jeff Dowler CRS - I have a few only.

Couple of them related to before closing. One for Closing Costs. And couple of them more.

However, just wondering what 20 activities from buyers or sellers will require such checklists?

i do not, but i recommend other do, so clearly something i am hypocritical about, i really should

Always, do not want to miss anything.

I use more for my shopping list - but I do have one for once the offer is accepted

I have a few.

I have a listing one, I have a contract one for both buyers and sellers, but I suppose I need one for buyers who are looking  to help track follow up

absolutely - and I would love to see yours! 

Yes...all the time

Yes, I am a checklist person which has been transferred to technology. I am a process guy.

I have two.  Marketing and an escrow.

Yes.

You bet!

Even when  not used they provide a good sequential overview for everyone involved.

In my head..lol.  After I open escrow I do send a checklist to my clients of what they can expect..

Jeff Dowler CRS Just a calendar, but no checklist.

Yes, it is the only way to stay organized.

Yes but honestly I have done it so long my checklists are internalized and second nature.
